Even if the strait reopened tomorrow, experts believe it would take a year for gas prices to fall back to pre-war levels. And let’s be clear, the strait was open before the war. Returning to baseline is not a win. #TrumpsGasCrisis

The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled. All this is common knowledge... www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...?

Trump systematically destroyed US Farmers' markets, down to the point that they can't sell a single lb of soybeans. Now, with a war by his choice, he has robbed you of fertilizer to grow the crops that no one will buy. His last desperate resort is to have US taxpayers provide welfare for Farmers.

Your daily reminder that if voting requires a $165 passport, that’s a poll tax… We made those unconstitutional in 1964.

This is why you always follow the money...

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

Seamus Culleton, an Irish national and small business owner who has called the U.S. home for 20 years, remains behind bars in a Texas ICE facility. Despite having no criminal record, being married to a U.S. citizen, and holding a valid work permit, Seamus has been detained since September 2025.

DHS made a massive purchase of 2,500 new custom marked ICE vehicles that are now sitting in parking garages because nobody wants to use them: “ICE has never had marked vehicles. We don’t want to use these - we can’t.” www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/immig...

A Better World Isn’t a Dream. It’s a Choice. And we’re currently choosing poorly.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion. That's $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. Thousands of lives lost. People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Lindsey’s diplomacy working wonders in UAE.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for. Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

This is why the Founders gave Congress, and only Congress, the power to take US into war. The point, embedded in the Constitution, is that the US should only go to war when the people decide to do so through a majority of their representatives. One man doing it is antidemocratic and dangerous.

Now is the time to prepare for the next election. Verify your voter registration status. Get your real id, get a new birth certificate. Ladies get a new certified copy of your marriage license if you have your spouse’s name. Help your family members, neighbors & friends. 💙💙💙 go.bsky.app/JusVyFK

Examples of "the best government that money can buy" are becoming more depressing. Ohio Republican Senator Jon Husted accepted more than $115,000 in campaign contributions from Les Wexner, one of 6 people listed as Epstein's co-conspirators, and then voted against releasing the Epstein files.

Congress is considering multiple bills that threaten to upend our freedom to vote ahead of the midterm elections. Urge your representatives NOW to oppose any attacks on voting rights.

MAGA is a racist cult that only benefits the rich. At least some of Trump’s former voters have seen the light.

Around the world, politicians and businessmen are resigning from their positions because of the Epstein Files. Except in the United States. Here: Zero shame, zero consequences. We need resignations, investigations, impeachments, and punishments now. Should have been years ago.

Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights. There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us. This is my favorite guide.

NEW VIDEO: this appears to be the footage from the woman in the pink coat.

This is the grim, depressing reality Trump has made of American life. Instead of waking up on a Saturday, relaxing and spending time with your loved ones, you now have to watch American towns being ravaged and its citizens being murdered by violent secret police.

They really cut $1 Trillion from Medicaid then put $50 billion back and think we’re all too dumb to notice

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us

🧵 Let’s be so effing for real right now. The Department of Education saying these jobs are no longer PROFESSIONAL is dumb as hell and insulting as fuck. It takes YEARS of post-graduate training, including passing certifying exams, to earn degrees in these fields. #fdt #momsky

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

This is what Trump and Republicans are doing to CHILDREN and families with their fascist, racist policies. It is grotesque, ANTI-American and totally unacceptable. We all deserve to live in America without fear. These heinous attacks by Trump’s ICE Gestapo must stop. We must ERADICATE TRUMPISM.

So many retirees are going to be going through this and now my husband wants to retire we’ll see probably won’t be able to. We’ll just die in our jobs like they want us to.

Amazon's plan to replace 600,000 workers with AI and robots could save it $10 billion on top of billions more in tax breaks. Today, I demanded answers from Jeff Bezos: Will you simply dump these workers out on the street, or will you treat them with the dignity they deserve?

Trump gave Amazon a $16 billion tax break to accelerate its investments this year. Now, Amazon will replace 600,000 workers with robots as Jeff Bezos accelerates his plan to automate warehouses. No. Corporate tax breaks do not trickle down to workers. Never have. Never will.

Jeff Bezos has ordered removal of certain books from offerings via Amazon

I'm as upset as the next person about the White House being defaced. But it is also a good time to remind ourselves that every immigrant unjustly hustled into an unmarked SUV by ICE is a family torn apart, a world destroyed.

#AOC is 100% right! This is not normal. What is normal is to negotiate. When one party wants the votes of another party, you negotiate, you come to a compromise and pass a bill.

It’s one social media, Michael. How much could it take to monitor it, 30 people?

Wouldn’t this be lovely…🫶🏼♥️🫶🏼 #VoteDemocratic #Pinks

“.. Virtually all major grocery categories are now more expensive than they were a year ago, some substantially so.” @axios.com #ICYMI www.axios.com/2025/09/11/t...

The real issue isn’t left vs right. It’s not white vs black. It’s not citizen vs immigrant. It’s not gay vs straight. The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.

Please share: My name is David Costello. I am a lifelong Mainer and Democrat running against Susan Collins. I too am concerned. I am concerned with endless decisions Susan Collins has made. We need to turn a page, retire Susan and take back the US Senate. Please watch and share:
