Rep Jim McGovern (D-MA) when GOP pulled an Iran War authorization vote off the schedule

“If you believe in a multiracial democracy — join us. If you believe in free and fair elections — join us. If you believe in fair Black representation in the South and across America — join us.” Leader Hakeem Jeffries

The decisions made by state supreme courts touch every part of our lives. And that’s especially important when voting rights and basic freedoms are being challenged. Today voters in Georgia can stand up for fairness and integrity by electing Miracle Rankin and Jen Jordan to Georgia’s Supreme Court.

An attack on Black America is an attack on all of America. Remember: if they come for us, they’ll come for you next. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/16/u...

We've seen the largest attack on multiracial democracy in a generation as well as their assault on women, girls, LGBTQ community. Now we're seeing the assault on civil rights and voting rights. An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us. Each of us needs to step up and do our part.

AOC: “It is time for the North to pull up to the South and let them know exactly what they have uncorked with this injustice. They think they can draw us out of power. They do not know the sleeping giant they just awakened. What they thought was the final blow is actually just the opening silo”

Thoughts for people living in safe blue cities and states: Alabama is the birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement. People bled and died for our right to vote. #AllRoadsLeadToTheSouth 🧵

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

Great story! I had no idea where this chant came from. I always knew Obama was a great speaker, but especially compared to what we have to listen to now.

The stories & photos from today’s voting rights marches in Alabama deserve to be seen by people who weren’t able to stand there in person. If this piece moves you, please share it widely & help make sure these voices aren’t lost in the noise of a crowded news cycle. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

MN House erupts when Speaker Demuth refuses to hold a vote on a gun violence prevention package. This is what Good Trouble, necessary trouble, looks like. #DyingForGunSafety

Stephen Colbert and David Letterman throwing things off the Ed Sullivan Theater. Colbert: “Anything you’d like to say, Dave?” Letterman: “In the words of the great Edward R. Murrow to CBS: ‘Good night and good luck, motherfuckers.’”

‼️THE SOUTH WILL NOT BE SILENCED‼️ Today’s march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge is a reminder that voting rights were paid for in blood. And now those same rights are under attack again. Next: Montgomery #AllRoadsLeadToTheSouth

It’s humiliating and on brand in the worst way. 37–1 isn’t “America leading.” It’s America opposing the most basic statement imaginable: women and girls deserve rights and protection. Under Trump, the U.S. isn’t standing for “freedom.” It’s standing against the entire world, and against women.

AOC on Trump’s reported plan to use $1.7 billion in IRS funds to compensate January 6 insurrectionists and pardoned fraudsters: “He’s using the entire government as a slush fund… one of the most unpatriotic and un-American acts I’ve seen in my entire life.”

ICE knows it's acting illegally and without authority to arrest in thousands of cases. The court records demonstrate this. It must stop. Now.

Igor Mykhaylovych Lytvynchuk, 38, from Seattle, was filmed throwing a large rock at a Hawaiian monk seal. When confronted, he said, “I’m rich. I can pay the fines.” He was arrested and faces up to two years in prison and $70K in fines. people.com/man-charged-...

GA friends, we need your help!

Abolish ICE.

Asked if Americans’ financial struggles were on his mind, Trump sputtered, “not even a little bit…I don’t think about Americans’ financial situations, I don’t think about anybody”! Trump/GOP’s chaotic, incompetent, corrupt policies are driving costs sky high for Americans! Trump/GOP profit, you pay!

America will never be “great” as long as it keeps refusing to confront its original sin: racism. Not as a footnote. Not as “the past.” Not as a “both sides” debate. And every time this country gets close to progress, the backlash shows up: louder, meaner, and better funded.

My grandma used to tell me she was “just resting her eyes,” but I knew she had dozed off. The difference, she wasn’t the President of the United States in the middle of a televised meeting.

How fucked is this that you need a bill to stop this ? Oh America you are so great lol

Plans to build Australia’s first Trump Tower have been scrapped just three months after it was announced, with the local developer saying the Trump brand has become “toxic.” “Let’s just say that with the Iran war and everything else, the Trump brand was increasingly unpopular in Australia.”

Look at this mess he made. It looks like finger painting by a bunch of kindergarten children.

Shapiro should volunteer to go out with a roofing crew in FL this July to help them out for a few days to get an introduction to reality. Or work the overnight shift in a hospital emergency room. Or teach 8th graders.

Trump yesterday: "I don't think about Americans' financial situation. I don't think about anybody." Vance today: "I don't think the president said that."

We need to flip four senate seats this November to overcome the Fetterman problem.

#Auspol @albomp.bsky.social No Data centres should be built in Australia unless they get their water from Desalination plants they build on the coast and it's run by renewables. Further the desal plants be built so they have excess water they supply to the nearest towns.

Exactly

Late last night, Olivia Andre finally returned to Maine. After six months of unlawful federal detention in Dilley, she is back where she belongs, reunited with her family and welcomed home by a community that never stopped waiting.

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #DV1 #ONEV1 @aoc.bsky.social on political ambition: She knows it’s not about her, but what lasting good she can help achieve for others. Here is a perfect response, and that is why I respect and trust her.

And Happy Mother’s Day!!! #Pinks

Supreme Court exposed for ruling built on cooked data from Trump administration #AlterNet

I have been a vocal critic of gerrymandering. But the Supreme Court has unleashed the Republican Party on a gerrymandering spree. Democrats must respond in kind, removing any incentive for Republican states to gerrymander. This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom.
