The tariff story isn’t just soybeans. It’s also your grocery bill. Farmers get a bailout. Shoppers just get higher prices. Trade wars don't just create pain, they ensure the costs are born by those without political power.

This isn’t right. Masked individuals raiding small businesses are endangering our communities, not making them safer.

Can't we just get healthcare

Stop the scapegoating and start dealing with America’s real gun crisis. HOMEGROWN‼️

There is a difference between righteous anger, directed at injustice, and hateful anger, directed at those who are different. Authoritarian regimes deliberately conflate the two to silence criticism and create false equivalence. It's important we don't let those in power succeed in this endeavor.

I have lived and worked in and around Chicago for 27 years and I have been assaulted less often than Sen Paul has been in his own back yard.

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

As a US Atty, I prosecuted and oversaw police excessive force cases. We took them seriously because they were serious abuses of power. What we're seeing now is the outbreak of an epidemic & instead of being condemned by fed'l law enforcement leaders, it seems to be tolerated if not encouraged.

Ty Cobb: "The simple theme is rewriting history. Trump wants to rewrite history so the next generation may not know that he incited a violent insurrection... America needs to learn from the mistakes that we've had. And one of the biggest mistakes that America ever had was reelecting President Trump"

‼️ Mass killings of Ukrainians in Bucha: The Sunday Times has named 13 Russian officers responsible for war crimes. "In those 29 days in early 2022, they committed such atrocities that this Ukrainian city will forever become synonymous with war crimes," the article says.

UN: “Kids dying of starvation… what we give them is a peanut butter paste. We’ve been told we can’t bring that in because it’s a luxury.” AMANPOUR: “Seriously?”

They do not have enough popular support. So they are trying to outlaw / silence opposition. And that’s where we are. Pushing back has never mattered more.

Is this the future you envisioned for our country? I certainly did not. I envisioned democracy and not a police state where human rights are violated on a daily basis. Why are these agents so willingly taking up arms against our own taxpayers and community members? THIS IS NOT AMERICAN!

Oregon responds to Grandpa Crazy

When Trump spews his bullshit about an American city, or university, or whatever, it’s vitally important that locals provide these simple but effective rebuttals

Jesus’ central command was to love. How exactly did Kirk love immigrants and people of color and women and Trans teens and Muslims and Democrats and atheists? Precisely what of his work and words made them feel more seen, heard, respected, valued? johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-shamef...

The only responses I get are a toxic cocktail of culture war posturing, personal threats, phobic prejudice, anti-woke slurs, and Evangelical religious-speak, which, sadly, makes their performative rally cry of affinity with Kirk’s messaging quite accurate. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/i-am-not-c...

I’ve invited people to help me understand what they mean by the now ubiquitous sentence whenever it shows up; precisely what statement they’re making, the specific cause they’re claiming solidarity with, the particular people they’re declaring war on.

'I am Charlie Kirk.' The phrase has quickly become a catch-all display of performative Conservative virtue signaling. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/i-am-not-c...

Sinclair and Nexstar caved, allowing Kimmel’s show to return. Bless everyone who pushed back!

Just FYI: Portland as a war zone is horseshit, and deploying federal troops is horseshit.

The same guy telling you Portland is war-ravaged, told you Mexico was going to pay for the wall and people were eating your pets in Ohio.

Some good news! These plus-in systems are all over Europe, whereas rooftop solar in the US is stupidly tied up in red tape, making it costly. All states should adopt this, like Utah did. And entirely nonpartisan—which is a weird thing to have to say about clean energy.

If ever there was a time not to normalize Trump’s authoritarian fever dreams, this is it. This should be impeachable. ‘War ravaged’ Portland? He’s insane - & insanely power hungry. The script is set - call an imaginary group a terror group and then send in the troops.

Oregon, get organized! go.bsky.app/Ft6G21R

Do NOT listen to RFKjr about anything. Listen to your personal physician. Get caught up on every vaccine you can.

Live from "war ravaged" Portland

Senator Jon Husted blatantly lied to Ohioans about the devastating impact of the Medicaid cuts he voted for.

#TrumpsGovernmentShutdown will affect YOUR healthcare. Millions of Americans will lose their insurance coverage - we simply won't be able to afford the huge $pike ⬆️ explosion next month. Dems are fighting to save our healthcare; Trump refuses to even meet with them. This shutdown is on Trump.

Hillary Clinton: "Good lord -- the things that have been said about me, the lies that have been propagated. If I had only known I could call up the FCC chair and say, 'Take this person off the air! Off with his head!' You have to laugh about it so you don't cry."

For all of you who call yourselves “pro-life”, this Pastor has a message for you

"I steal the words from other the people in eight—no, nine—no, thirty—language. All equal good."

Hundreds of stars sign letter defending free speech after Jimmy Kimmel's suspension #Pinks apnews.com/article/jimm...

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes. That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

I hate that Brigitte Macron feels compelled to prove she’s a woman, but I get it: shut that lie down. The right thrives on ruining lives with made-up trash. Maybe Candace Owens should have to prove she’s human.

Cruz admonishes the FCC for taking down Kimmel, calling Carr’s actions “dangerous as hell.”
