If you're in MO-7 please check out Missi Hesketh. Last I knew she's the only hope we have for a Dem (or any option) other than Burlison and I don't want that bootlicker getting elected again.

I hate how prophetic this was

Himes: "I think it's really important this video by made public ... it's important people see what it looks like when the full force of the US military is turned on two guys who are clinging to a piece of wood and about to go under just so they have a visceral feel for what it is we're doing"

Disabled people do not owe you their medical history. They do not owe you their diagnosis. They do not owe you an explanation. Benefits are exceedingly hard to get and the process is punishing & dehumanizing. No one is doing it for fun.

Activists follow and whistle as Greg Bovino leads federal agents out of Circle K, with assistance from Louisiana State Police.

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high. This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

If you’re dealing with a chronic illness flare, remember it’s ok to rest. You’re not failing. You didn’t do anything wrong. You’re not being punished. Flare ups happen and the best thing we can do is lean in to radical rest as much as possible. Save your spoons and give yourself grace.

This is exactly what churches should be doing, calling out injustice. 📌 Lake Street Church Nativity: a bold social justice statement with ICE-like Roman soldiers, the Virgin Mary in a gas mask, baby Jesus zip-tied, Joseph on the ground, pushing viewers to think about immigration.

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake? TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

No one deserves to starve. No one deserves to starve. No one deserves to starve. Most SNAP recipients work. They need SNAP because corporations refuse to pay a living wage. The rest are disabled, elderly or unpaid caregivers. People should be fed. Period.

Profound admiration Teen brothers patrol the Chicago suburbs to track ICE agents and film raids

Imagine if we could all agree that hungry people should be fed. Homeless people should be housed. Sick people should receive medical care. If basic needs were guaranteed and taken care of, society would be healthier and happier.

Fuck parties and party lines just take care of people goddamnit it shouldn't be that fucking hard. Work to decrease the amount of suffering in the world and do everything you can not to increase.

The amount of people who still think it's still just about politics and party lines is astounding to me.

C'mon TN-7! Do the thing!

They literally breached it as soon as it was agreed on. These fuckers have no honor, no respect, no humanity.

Listen, if you tell me that “taxation is theft” I’m going to need you to quit driving on highways or walking on sidewalks or attending a public school or using police or fire services or city snow removal. I would mention libraries, but…

The killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies are already inside the walls and they're in charge. For now.

FIFA seriously needs to move the World Cup out of America. It is too dangerous to send players here.

Let 'em laugh Idgaf

Costco is suing the Dictator in the WH for the financial harm his tariffs are causing American consumers. A wholesale retailer cares more about protecting families’ wallets than the executive branch does. Speaks volumes. 😑

The secretary of defense throwing a top military official under the bus to protect himself. A beacon of integrity.

Grassroots vs Gated Community Let’s Go Aftyn Behn!

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Sen. Kelly: “This is about a president who doesn't want anybody to say anything that he does not like. I don't think he understands the Constitution. I think he is ignorant to the Constitution and the rule of law…This isn't about me. This is about what he will do next.”

to keep everyone fed, housed, and safe

the whole regime is in fact a crime syndicate. ICE are just the enforcers, the thugs they send out to terrorize us.

‼️‼️

Since we aren't in a war, Pete Hegseth isn't technically a war criminal. He's just a garden-variety mass murderer.

Some in the Democratic Party want to you think we must choose between social justice and economic populism. Rubbish. The only path forward is embracing both.

We’re the only country that lets the gun lobby write the laws and then pretends to be shocked when children end up in coffins. NEW UPDATE: The San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office has announced that four of the victims shot in the Stockton mass shooting were ages 8, 9, 14, and 21.

Mark Kelly: "We have a president who doesn't understand the Constitution, who installed an unqualified secretary of defense. I cannot think of a secretary of defense in the history of our country that is less qualified than Pete Hegseth. He should've been fired after Signal-gate."

This is why hockey is the superior sport. Cellying is a time honored tradition. (J/k but only a little)

Mark Kelly: "My concern is with the service members -- we're gonna put these individuals in a really tough place. They may find our down the road that they did something that's illegal. It's not fair to them. That's why need presidents and secretaries of defense who understand the Constitution"

what the fuck does "favored nation status" even mean?

NATO should defend Ukraine as if it were a member. Enough with the abstract – what's happening in now, in the real world, necessitates it. If not, it's only a matter of time that NATO is directly at war with Russia. The instant the war is over, make it official. NATO is much stronger with Ukraine.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime. If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder. It’s that simple.

If he can make a deal with ANYONE to make money, he will. Let's not forget Putin isn't the only dictator he's cozied up to recently.

Pretty sure you don't just get to pick which judge's orders you do or do not comply with....

A nation that allows criminals to be pardoned by the very person who orders their crimes, is a organized crime syndicate masquerading as a nation.

If there's any justice in the world he'll be the next Secretary of Defense
