Speaker Johnson kicked me out of his office. Here's why.

The jury acquitted the DC “sandwich guy” today. Good. Americans are sick of seeing citizens threatened and power abused by law enforcement and the National Guard. This verdict makes that crystal clear.

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol made $95.8 million in 2024. The median barista made just $14,674. That's a 6,666-to-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio. The largest of all S&P 500 companies. Every single worker should walk out. Americans deserve a livable wage. Enough!

Talk about being willing to give EVERYTHING to your country!

MAGA Republicans have to try really hard to be this GD ignorant.

Yes, yes, and yes some more !!!

#Mamdani is a young, privileged man who also happens to be empathetic, hard working, & intelligent. Sound familiar? #NewYork will not be the only one to benefit from his win….. #SheShed

Text from a friend:

Once upon a time, American soldiers handed out food to Germans because *they* had followed a fascist madman into national ruin. How times change.

Yes! Pack and crack the white voters in the name of political considerations and see if SCOTUS cares about race then.

There is something wrong with the president

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Gavin Newsom has the greatest Social Team. 🤣😂🤣😂

Tonight is good reminder that Democrats need to primary the shit out of disgraceful fraudulent traitor John Fetterman and get that piece of shit out of office for good.

Democrats in Virginia may make big gains in the state legislature. By my count, 11 GOP state House incumbents are losing their races. Dems currently hold a 51-49 edge in the VA House of Delegates. +11 is a big shift.

Yes and also, fuck 30 to grave men

It's the cruelty...

I don't think people fully comprehend how much 1 billion is. For instance—if your salary was 100K a year (no tax), it would take you 10 years to become a millionaire but 10,000 years to reach a billion. It's unethical and immoral for one person to be hoarding this much money when others cannot eat.

Thigh-high boots and universal healthcare? Sign me up.

NEW: Senator Durbin and I are demanding that Kristi Noem put a stop to DHS arresting people for filming agents attacking their neighbors. How dare DHS call foul play while it uses taxpayer dollars to record propaganda videos? It is legal to record. It's called accountability.

NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work. Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours. She was later released with NO CHARGE. A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”. You decide…

Wasn’t Clooney one of the people that pushed Biden out?

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance. The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income. They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive. Wanna fix fraud and abuse? Fix that.

Honoring the Vital Contributions and Tireless Work Ethic of the Hispanic Community in the USA. 💪🏽

All these years later MAGA lunatics continue to hate President Obama because he’s had an exceptional education, he’s super intelligent, he’s super successful and all this whilst being black, not to mention that he’s a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize and their felon isn’t.

"When all are tired, cold, and hungry at the end of the day, it is the leader who puts aside his personal discomfort to look to the needs of his soldiers." General George Catlett Marshall, Jr 🇺🇸 #SheShed

You leak covert CIA ops, criminal probes, and Signal chats, but your healthcare plan is close hold?

Yes, please.

This is the country we’ve become under the Trump administration.

Sen. Durbin isn’t taking Kristi Noem’s crap. Nor should he!

This really helped me make sense of or at least name the response to authoritarianism in the U.S. I’m witnessing. Life just hums along while some are dying. #pinks #sad #dichotomy #proudprogressive www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Jimmy Carter Walked The Walk.....

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.

Is there any large company standing with We, The People and our democracy? Yes. I give you, HEB of Texas. 👇 Bravo! #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #Pinks #wtpBLUE

"Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much higher consideration." - Lincoln, in his first State of the Union address, on December 3, 1861

Tried to reorder tea from a French company that we really like, and not only will they no longer ship to the U.S., if you try to enter a U.S. address, it returns an "invalid country" error message. Which ... yeah.

Check out Cuba serving a big FU! The whole GOP is a worldwide fucking embarrassment!🤬 I expect there will be more countries calling out the bullshit!

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

Cool we can fund SNAP, pay air traffic controllers, ACA subsidies, all kinds of stuff. Right when we really need it. When do we get the cash?
