🆒‼️ Historians @hcrichardson.bsky.social & @jbf1755.bsky.social discuss authoritarianism & press freedom following the arrests of US journalists. The Bill of Rights is a shield for the people to oversee a corrupt government and resist a transition toward dictatorship. www.youtube.com/live/EWwzL31...

Due process means that if you're accused of something by the government, you have the right to defend yourself, regardless of your immigration status.

Marco Rubio has many titles, except when it’s time to take accountability. He may be the Secretary of State, but Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are negotiating with foreign leaders behind his back. When did the Senate confirm them as our representatives on the world stage?

Follow @hcrichardson.bsky.social Heather Cox Richardson! She’s brilliant. youtu.be/WbIJBf59q5E?...

The protesters in MN should break open the fire hydrants so that the water freezes and the streets become slippery and those domestic terrorists pursuing them that get wet will have to retreat!

@governor.ca.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @padilla.senate.gov @diannefeinstein.bsky.social @repgaramendi.bsky.social I'll be at one of the over 1,000 demonstrations around the country this weekend protesting MAGA's horrific abuse of Americans. Which rallies will you attend?

The House passed a three-year extension of critical ACA subsidies that will help millions of Americans afford their health insurance. But instead of fighting over these subsidies every few years, we should enact Medicare for All. Here's what you should know.

NEW: 400+ civil rights groups and unions just joined our demand that Congress refuse funds for ICE and rein in their behavior. Masked federal agents are endangering our communities and putting lives at risk. Our leaders must act now and defend us from this lawless violence.

Over 1,000 demonstrations are taking place this weekend to tell the government that enough is enough! I've got my sign all ready to go! Find an event near you here: www.mobilize.us?tag_ids=2913...

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

Rest in peace, Diane Keaton. I loved her work.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @repgaramendi.bsky.social The 1% don't need public services & subsidies. They're doing fine. Trump's GOP wants to harm Americans to give tax cuts to elites who already have more money than they could ever spend.

@governor.ca.gov @padilla.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @repgaramendi.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov America was founded on the notion that a person should be free to follow their destiny. But we can't do that if we're living in fear of our own government. Lift us up!

All servicewomen serving in combat roles already have to meet stringent gender-neutral physical standards. But Secretary Hegseth is intent on smearing those women as unqualified — and pushing all women out of military service.

@democrats.org We need heroes to stand up and show us what this country is supposed to mean. We need leaders.

@schiff.senate.gov, at hearings, you should remind Trump officials like the AG that they hold an position of dignity and honor on behalf of the American people and that they have a duty to comport themselves in a manner befitting the dignity of their office. Shame them for their lack of decorum.

I fear the Dems are going to lose the shutdown fight b/c they're flubbing the messaging. The GOP have shut down the government for the sole purpose of, yes, taking away healthcare, but why? To give away the store to the billionaire class. The Dems need to spread the msg of why the GOP is doing this.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social, I like what you had to say in this interview. youtu.be/x2j-ctifVug?...

Are we great yet?

@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov You should be collecting stories like mine from everyday Americans like me and getting in front of every microphone and bullhorn and soapbox you can to spread the gospel that Trump and his GOP CANNOT GOVERN!

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @repgaramendi.bsky.social @adamschiff.com @padilla.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov! LOCK THIS GOVERNMENT DOWN! FUCK TRUMP AND HIS GOP!! DO NOT FUND THIS IMMORAL, AMORAL, CORRUPT, MURDEROUS, TREASONOUS, CRIMINAL GOV'T!!!

Dateline: Oct. 1, 2025. OK, @gavinnewsom.bsky.social @gretchenwhitmer.bsky.social @kathyhochul.bsky.social @govpritzker.illinois.gov and all Democratic governors! Time to withhold federal tax dollars from going to DC to fund this corrupt government. BLUEs pay the bills! www.cnbc.com/2025/10/01/t...

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov @repgaramendi.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov @democrats.org @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov Thanks to Trump's disastrous economic policy (and the Democrats' do-nothing politics) my credit card company's raising my interest rate by 5% October 1!

Good job, Red States! Your ride-or-die GOP reps and sens just passed the most un-Christian bill ever. It condemns the poor to die of starvation and disease and makes the very rich a little richer at the expense of our children's futures. Your GOP vote made this all possible. Shame on you all.

BREAKING: Congress just gave final approval on a budget bill that guts Medicaid, defunds Planned Parenthood, and supercharges funding for ICE. We the people will bear the brunt of these harmful policies — and we won’t forget who caused this devastation to our health, rights, and dignity.

Ok, with great trepidation I’m sharing this comparison photo. Eating disorders, depression and pretending to be someone you’re not does a lot to a person. 7years and 70pounds difference.

Losses in service jobs sparked the first negative job growth in two years.

Marines, at what point does defending the Constitution from domestic enemies apply to the regime that’s currently occupying our government? Asking for a friend.

Hard to take seriously the red-white-and-blue rhetoric of freedom on a 4th of July where the US president has cut off aid to a democracy fighting for its independence against ferocious attack by a foreign tyrant.

Good job, Red States! For forty years, you have ignored the scientific community's warnings, bought into the GOP's bullshit about "alternative facts", denied the very reality of anthropogenic climate change--and now the chickens are coming home to roost in your backyards. www.cnn.com/2025/06/25/w...

Good job, Red States! Enjoy broiling in record-breaking temps this week and remember! This is what you voted for! Meanwhile, out here on the best coast I'm sipping iced tea, smoking ribs, and laissez'ing les bons temps rouler! The cool Pacific breeze wafting through my yard is mighty refreshing.

As you prepare yourself to discuss the ruinous Trump GOP's budget bill--that gives away TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS to the rich, increases taxes on the poor, and blows up the national debt--with your MAGAt relations, see this summary by leading economist @justinwolfers.bsky.social. youtu.be/uKLdzBun4sk?...
