Free speech is a pillar of democracy — firing comedians who make fun of you is not.

Van Hollen: "Those who cave in -- those like ABC who cave in -- what they do is give the bully an even bigger appetite. When they appease they bully, they put all of us at risk."

I stand with PBS. I stand with NPR. I stand with Stephen Colbert. I stand with Jimmy Kimmel. I stand with the First Amendment. PERIOD.* *Also #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files

A man very recently called for “involuntary lethal injection” for the mentally ill and the unhoused. Literally talking about murdering other humans—and he still kept his job. Brian Killmeade, Fox & Friends.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Yes, release the Epstein files!!!

this doesn't look like a normal distribution

@elliottpayne.org I love seeing more of these in the neighborhood! ❤️

We’re offering a training on how to identify, defuse, and prevent the spread of political violence. By standing up in defense of democracy and in opposition to violence, we spread the courage for more to do so.

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this. You're welcome

Say it with me “release the Epstein files” (Sound up)

So not surprising that the people who fetishize assault rifles kill more Americans than those who don't.

It’s Called hypocrisy.

Just to be clear: Brian Kilmeade *did not* endorse euthanizing homeless people. He advocated MURDERING over 700,000 of them. And on a network that has been *beside itself* over the murder of just one man this week.

Congress has a duty to take action to end the devastating crisis of veterans' suicide. I just sent my message, will you join me? Tell Congress: Save Veterans' Lives >> etwn.us/43mLVlT

You can’t scrub away the truth.

T-Mobile is bankrolling Elon Musk, empowering Trump’s agenda & has spent years stopping workers from joining a union. We’re organizing a boycott to show corporations if they enable extremists they will lose customers. #BoycottTMobile RSVP for the call on Sept 10: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

HERE WE GO! T-Mobile ignored our calls to break up with Musk. They threw in their lot with Trump. They need to be held accountable. So it's time to #BoycottTmobile! Learn more, sign the pledge and take action: tmobileboycott.org #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall

"The only known solution to creeping authoritarianism is broad-based, peaceful, geographically dispersed mass engagement by everyday Americans. That’s it. That’s what works." Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The Supreme Court said it’s okay for the government to use race and language to decide who gets stopped and questioned. Once you accept racial profiling as “legal,” it creeps into every corner of American life. Utterly unacceptable and shameful.

Today in @tlhumanrights.bsky.social, we discussed how authoritarian governments around the world are using laws that claim to focus on transparency in order to monitor and shut down human rights organizations that are critical of their policies.   The Trump Administration is following suit.

Trump never had good ideas, just manipulative PR. Listen to Jonathan Mahler on the LP Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3cD9Duylxo

Randi Weingarten has literally written the book on why fascists fear teachers — they're afraid of curiosity and knowledge — so this is sure to be a great discussion! social.redwine.blue/s/oomKqzLM

Let’s say it plain: the Supreme Court of the United States endorsed racial profiling today.

Millions of Americans took to the streets in June to drown out Trump’s birthday parade. As Trump’s regime escalates his authoritarian power grab, we’re gathering again on October 18 for a nationwide day of peaceful protests to say NO KINGS. We hope you will join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

“Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America.”

STOP ACTING LIKE THIS IS NORMAL! Why Democrats should not bail out the Republicans to avoid a government shutdown. @ezraklein.bsky.social makes a compelling case that we are, NOW, living under an authoritarian regime. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/o...

“Jeffries and Schumer, get your shit together. Tell us what your demands are.” As another government funding deadline approaches, we’re starting to get déjà vu about Democrats caving to Trump. Urge Democrats to reject any Republican budget that fuels Trump’s chaos: indivisible.org/campaign/car...

LISTEN to Gov. J.B. Pritzker warning: Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America.

There is no democratic justification for withholding these files. This is a coverup.⁩

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Incredible showing for democracy and against occupation today.

A must read.

We know the far right fantasizes about military occupation in more Democratic cities. The more we can frustrate Trump’s authoritarian power grab and demonstrate mass backlash and defiance, the harder it will be for his regime to consolidate control. Your voice is critical at this moment. 👇

Silence is compliance, so get LOUD. Every night the military is in #Chicago, residents are encouraged to go outside @ 7PM & bang pots/pans, sing, chant, or make noise for 5 min. Talk with neighbors about what’s happening. Post your noisemaking to socials using: #HandsOffChicago handsoffchicago.com

I’ve spent a good chunk of my career relying on American science and engineering to keep me alive. Yesterday, RFK Jr. testified at the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. It was sad to see him try to destroy the life’s work of so many American scientists. He shouldn’t be in this job.

Changing the name of the Department of Defense will cost billions.We could build units for all unhoused veterans. Or give service members a pay raise so 35K active duty members wouldn’t have to rely on food stamps. Or… or… or…

In June, you made No Kings Day one of the biggest protests in US history. October 18 is going to be even bigger. Join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

CHICAGO!!! We’re out protesting at the Broadview Detention Center (1930 Beach St) where ICE is detaining and deporting our neighbors. We’ve scared them off once today. Come by and help us do it again.

I’d like to understand why Mayor Frey did not bother showing up for South Minneapolis today. Not even a campaign staffer to explain his absence. The Southside deserves investment and time. We deserve a Mayor who shows up and cares about us.
