One week from right now, millions of Americans will gather in every state for the biggest day of peaceful protest in American history. Join your local No Kings Day event to make it clear that We The People won’t cower in response to Trump’s authoritarian takeover: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

His slip of the tongue reveals who’s really in charge. trib.al/mIvP0yE “Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

I just watched the video of the Portland Cop threatening to arrest an ICE agent if they drive their truck through a crowd. Now I see this where the General of the Oregon National Guard says if they get called up they will protect the protesters. People are fed up. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Nothing says “America First” like letting another country put an Air Force base in Idaho

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Thank you @governor.ca.gov @gavinnewsom.bsky.social for signing #SB42 to put the California Fair Elections Act on the ballot! Passing it will legalize public financing of campaigns to empower voters — not billionaires! SIGN: bit.ly/sign-sb42-7

🚨BREAKING: A right-wing group with a long track record of pushing for voter roll purges, is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to reinterpret a federal law designed to expand voting access as a mandate for aggressive voter removals. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square. Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files. Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

GOV. PRITZKER: “This is a convicted felon threatening to jail me? He’s an unhinged, insecure wannabe dictator. Come and get me.”

we need these everywhere...

Kristi Noem confronts enemy combatants in the Portland war zone today.

Schiff: "You were asked whether you were firing career prosecutors just because they worked on January 6 investigations. You refused to answer that question."

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

There’s just not enough attention being paid to how unqualified, psychologically unfit, and dangerous so many of these new ICE hires potentially are. If we had a Congress, there’d be investigations & oversight into this.

I understand this. Please tell me you do, too.

I think this is right: "We've slid into some form of authoritarianism," says Steven Levitsky, a professor of government at Harvard. "It is relatively mild compared to some others. It is certainly reversible, but we are no longer living in a liberal democracy." www.npr.org/2025/04/22/n...

After a 2013 Supreme Court ruling weakened the most powerful part of the Voting Rights Act, the landmark law will face ANOTHER test before the court in two weeks. This time, it will decide whether to gut the law’s ability to prevent racial discrimination in voting. https://bit.ly/42SuDh6

They’re using American tax dollars to fund infrastructure in Argentina because that’s where they’re all going to flee when we kick them out of office

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook. Our duty is to stand up to brutality. Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

True Fact‼️

Oregon AG Rayfield: Huge win at this moment in our democracy right now. This is the president that is normalizing the use of the United States military in our country. So to get this strong of a ruling out today for the public to see—it’s incredibly important.

Ronald Reagan signed EMTALA. EMTALA was enacted ensure equal patient access to emergency medical care and to prevent the practice of patient dumping, in which uninsured patients were transferred, solely for financial reasons, from private to public hospitals without consideration

BlackRock will buy AES, one of the largest publicly traded utility companies in the U.S. AES is a major power provider for Big Tech companies building out data centers. Yes: while these data centers drive up your electricity costs, wealthy financiers are going to make a killing.

Trumpnomics: Get tariff money from US consumers on Chinese goods. Our farmers can’t sell their products because the Chinese refuse to pay our tariffs. China buys from farmers in Argentina instead. We send Argentina $20 billion. Then we pay our farmers to throw their crops away.

Sounds fair. And maybe freeze their health care too?

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

Wow. This really says it all.

Easily, his most elaborate and destructive distraction from #TheEPSEIN_Files... yet.

…

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

DOJ has sued 8 states for refusing to turn over their full, unreacted voter files. My team has now filed motions to defend voters in 7 of those cases in ME, MI, MN, NH, NY, OR and PA. I suggest that DOJ monitor the docket in the remaining one in CA.

"We can either have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we cannot have both." Justice Louis D. Brandeis

Priorities.

I’m confused how it is despicable to ask that question. These are exactly the kinds of questions we have been begging reporters & TV hosts to ask. You see when they do get asked how sensitive they are about it. Much, much more of this. More crypto questions, Qatar, UAE, etc bsky.app/profile/atru...

I could not be prouder of the work my firm is doing to protect voting rights and voters from the current Department of Justice.

Swear her in.

I'm attending Healthcare Not Authoritarianism's event, “MASS CALL- Healthcare Not Authoritarianism: Shutdown Showdown” - sign u www.mobilize.us/healthcareno...

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

So…let me see if I have this right. The federal government is gonna shut down in 30hrs, and the party that controls the ENTIRE federal government is trying to blame the party that controls NONE of the federal government for the looming shutdown?

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

The unsung heroes of America: lifelong agency workers at Social Security, Medicare, VA and so many other agencies who are staying there to ensure the American people are taken care of. They didn’t have to stay. They are being worked into the ground. Thank you with all of my heart.🙏

This and other reports from oregonlive.com show what a joke Trump’s claim of “war ravaged Portland” is. Actually, it’s not a joke; it’s a lie. h/t @hcrichardson.bsky.social ‘s newsletter www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/0...

Trump’s regime knows they can’t silence us all through investigations, prosecutions or the deployment of brutal secret police. They can only try to silence dissent through fear. As long as we choose not to give into fear, we can’t be silenced. Join us to say NO KINGS: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...
