“Do you support this kind of demonstration?” @justinjpearson.bsky.social : “Absolutely! What the hell else are we gonna do?” (From @MemphisForAll)

I joined NY’s Cutest on the Bergen Bike Bus that they ride to school every Wednesday, rain or shine. We’re adding bike boulevards and more pedestrian space on Bergen and Dean Street, from Court Street to East New York Ave. It was a wonderful kind of day.

NEW: Tennessee voters came out to oppose the GOP’s new rigged maps 🔥

It’s time to get out the vote in Georgia! Early voting has started and no matter where you live, you can help elect Dr. Jasmine Clark — a scientist, educator, legislator, and millennial mom who is running for Congress to put working families first and pursue an aggressive oversight agenda.

Does anybody remember when the president of the United States wasn’t just allowed to lie and say whatever you wanted without repercussions?… Remember that?

Ted Lieu: "I have a red line in determining which Democrat I will support for President That person must commit to removing the stain of Trump's name from every single federal building, & kick it off with a grand public ceremony w/ fireworks – you think I'm kidding, i'm not kidding"

Dear World, I can assure you that the MAJORITY of Americans DO NOT support the Christo-fascist autocratic takeover of our government. It IS in fact “minority rule”. Thank you for any and all solidarity. I am gravely sorry for what it to come. I will fight it with all my heart and strength.

Mashing the actblue donate button for both my senators who voted to confirm multiple Trump appointees. Certainly they’ll do better this time. If I don’t vote for them every time then my totally-not-transphobic-or-racist liberal #allies will send me to the camps.

Seeing children being forced to interact with Donald Trump is revolting to me in every possible way.

Don't forget: my old Yale Law classmate Clarence Thomas refused to recuse from Jan. 6 cases despite his wife's involvement in the plot. And he's taken at least 100 gifts worth over $2 million while serving, including from GOP donor Harlan Crow. He's a disgrace to the Court.

After the FBI raid on her office earlier today, L. Louise Lucas released this statement:

Protesters are singing civil rights songs in the Tennessee Senate State and Local Government Committee.

One of the things I love about where I live: voting is accessible. I can vote by mail, the instructions are clear, and I have multiple ways to return my ballot. Even better, my community can get voting info in 18+ languages—because democracy works best when everyone can participate.

Roberts went to a judicial conference in Hershey, Pennsylvania today and complained that the public wrongly sees Supreme Court justices as “political actors.” He said people mistakenly think the court makes policy decisions rather than legal ones.

yeah man, we’re all just dummies who don’t understand that you’re just judicial monks operating in a sphere of pure law [puts finger to ear] what’s this, clarence thomas gave another speech blaming progressives for hitler?

I Fully Endorse this Idea….

NEWS: The Epstein files are now bound into 3,437 physical volumes in a new exhibition space in Tribeca. Millions of pages. Two stories tall. And yet only two people have ever faced accountability. Katie Phang discusses the rage she felt walking through the space.

This painting is titled "Untitled (Poppies Against a Storm)" and was created by American artist Bruce Cohen in 2011.

We don’t know what the future holds for our democracy, but we do know that we follow in the footsteps of patriotic Americans who also did not know what the future held and yet they organized anyway. It’s our turn now.

horrible. this country’s turn away from science based medicine in the name of “wellness” is killing children and will kill a lot more. www.propublica.org/article/more...

Tom Steyer says ICE is a criminal operation, and it should be abolished, and criminal accountability should go all the way up to Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller.

Tennessee and countless other states have been speaking out against what is basically a Jim Crow session

We're rallying in Nashville to send a message to our elected officials: Our democracy belongs to We, the People. We're fighting back against the state's attempt to redraw our maps and undermine Black voting strength.

I saw firsthand while campaigning with Chedrick Greene what a committed leader and excellent public servant he is. Congratulations on your victory tonight - I know you’ll continue serving fellow Michiganders well in the State Senate.

Obama's actual quote: "Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act... it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy”

The supreme court betrayed Black voters, they betrayed America, and they betrayed our democracy.” - Barack Obama

Yes I am.
