Icymi last month: The US government has collected DNA samples from 133,000+ migrant children and teenagers and uploaded them into a national criminal database originally built for people convicted of sex offenses and violent crimes

Enough! This is exactly why ICE should be required to identify themselves. If ICE looks like criminals and thugs, they should be regarded as such. 🚨 Yesterday, an L.A. man was arrested for impersonating a federal agent. Loaded gun, fake documents, cop gear and even blinking & blue on his car

My daughter just sent me this I wish I was filthy rich I'd buy a full-page ad in every major publication Hardworking Decent People deserve our gratitude and respect Not being dragged off and beaten

Imagine having the power, money and political standing to make a difference in the world. To save children’s lives. Then imagine you did that, providing medical interventions—saving lives. Now imagine someone ending it. Putting children at risk of death and harm. You don’t have to imagine— 🧵

Orange Daddy gonna be big mad.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Solidarity is our only way out of this mess. I’m so grateful for this group of allies, accomplices, and aspirational icons who are helping to lead the way forward. We need coalitions, not perfection. Democracy is messy. Let’s dig in, together. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ go.bsky.app/CJ3WEyo

Project 2025 is a suffocating quilt. It erases inclusion, guts our Constitution, and targets anyone who doesn’t match the look, culture, or values of its authors. Lack of knowledge moves the Ignorant to Stupid. Evil is evil. Stay true to yourself. #Resist #SheShed

Every day I have to process what’s happening. It’s getting harder and harder to comprehend, and I’m not sure how long until I break. I know I won’t, can’t stop fighting but the emotional toll is something I never thought I would have to carry. It’s indescribable on so many levels. The pain I feel

Any far right US Supreme Court decision which alters or reverses any part of OUR Constitution is invalid. They do not have the authority to make amendments.

Per SCOTUS Injunction & Birthright Citizenship Ruling, there are 22 states grandfathered to file against the Birthright citizenship EO. They are AZ CA CO CN DE HA IL ME MD MA MI MN NV NJ NM NY NC OR RI VT WA WI

I am a birthright citizen. I became naturalized when my parents received their citizenship. This affects me directly. Please don’t stop resisting. There’s so many Democratic voters just like me. Trump’s administration is trying to get rid of us.

I have seen men die. I have buried friends. I am 100% disabled from my service. The casual way in which men like Donald Trump and Ted Cruz declare that Iran or others must be attacked with no skin in the game infuriates me. New read with💥 @fpwellman.bsky.social 👇🏼

It’s time to open the books. An investigation needs to be opened into just how much has been spent on the deportations, the detainments, the unknown Stasi. The hotels, per diems. I want to know how much of taxpayer money has been spent to date. How they’re being paid, how much they’re being paid.

📌Dear Media: After 10 years of this, the grotesque, serial-liar Trump "lashing out" at you is no longer a story. -thx

🧵The outrage I feel is real🤬 The Trump regime plans to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia for a second time—not to his native El Salvador, where a judge ruled he’d face persecution, but to an unnamed third country. This is a blatant violation of civil rights & humanity. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/26/u...

The UFW shows how to deal with ICE goons

It pisses me off to no end that people with <10 years to live are making destructive decisions for all of those with longer futures.

I totally agree. It doesn’t have to be this way, but until Republicans grow a set and stand up to him, nothing will change. Hopefully we’ll have midterms and can vote these bootlickers out!

The United States of America 🇺🇸 will always be a democratic nation. We do not bow to kings here. Stay strong. Stay safe. We are the voice of the nation. Vetted pack of wonderful humans. Smash the Follow All tab! #NoKings

If someone had told me, prior to 45, that in a few years we’d be saying “hold my beer” to Pinochet, I would never have believed him. But here we are. Disappearing innocent people. That poor family - all the families that are experiencing the trauma of this immigration “policy”. 💔🤬

Watch this. Because this is the way: Local officials using their platform right, reaching out to the community. Ambrocio “Enrique” Lozano, affectionately known as “the popsicle man,” was reportedly abducted in broad daylight in Culver City. Masked man. White van. Cart left behind in the street.

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

The *real* story of Black Lives Matter Based off my interview with Dr. Melina Abdullah, original BLM founding member and co-founder of BLM-LA and @blmgrassroots.bsky.social My first for @counterpunchmedia.bsky.social www.counterpunch.org/2025/06/15/h...

Yes America Arrest people bound to wheelchairs who are using their First Amendment Rights Who TRULY NEED MEDICAID to survive Do they look like a threat Please call your Senators 202 224-3121 This Bad Bill must be stopped We WontGet Over Losing Medicaid

It's official. With no notifications to National Science Foundation employees, Trump is moving the HUD in and NSF out. There is no announced plan where to send NSF. Science is being deported by the Trump administration. share.google/LVmoUjzPK0zR...

If MAGA passes Trump's Big Ugly Bill Experts say 51,000 Americans will die PER YEAR due to loss of Medicaid or ACA coverage This is unacceptable under ANY circumstances And to think-Republicans are doing this to give tax breaks to billionaires No,Mitch McConnell We Wont Get Over Losing Medicaid

🚨Please call your representatives today – *Especially* if they are Republicans. 🚨It’s not hyperbole to say that if this bill passes, it will be the end of American life as we know it. 🚨It will not just affect the poor, elderly and disabled-but every American.

Take a few minutes for this one—because you might need FEMA in the near future, and you need to know what’s currently going on. Or not going on. Thank you, @repjasmine.bsky.social for telling it straight, sounding the alarm, and sharing how we can help.

1/3 This Jewish American Heritage Month, read & listen to the story of Jack Greenberg—a civil rights titan whose legacy is deeply entwined with that of Thurgood Marshall. Hired by Marshall in 1949, Greenberg joined the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and became a key force in the fight to end segregation

The Holocaust Museum here in El Paso (I take my boys there) has a wall honoring the soldiers from El Paso who liberated those in the Nazi concentration camps. They will never be forgotten for their sacrifice, service and the lives they saved 🙏🏾❤️ #MemorialDay

🤭🤣🖕🏻 #SheShed

Kudos to whoever fixed this lunatic’s Memorial Day post…

Today we honor those who, in service to something bigger than themselves, stepped up and made the ultimate sacrifice. Amid the petty grievances and selfishness we see every day, it’s a sobering reminder of what humans can be. Wishing each a safe, reflective, grateful, and humble Memorial Day.

Happy Memorial Day to everyone except the Bitter Orange Bitch destroying the memory of the fallen by radicalizing their descendants and turning them against the very democratic principles each one died to protect. Enjoy your day! 🇺🇸

@standupforscience.bsky.social has posted an open letter for EVERYONE to sign concerning the Trump administration's attack on research www.standupforscience.net/open-letter-...

MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND 🇺🇸 Geez America Aren't you glad you voted for tRump His big beautiful Bend Over bill targets 1500 National Park Service Employees and $1.2 billion in funding for National Parks (source Forbes) Here we have the traffic jam to get to the Tohono National Forest Payson AZ

Women and men in every state voted for this-AND AGAINST this ideology. We can never forget the blue warriors in the red states who fight every day. We cannot discount nor leave them behind. We acknowledge It’s profoundly more difficult to speak up when you are surrounded by the opposition.

5 years. Since Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd, US cops have killed 6,000 - 12,000+ people — “setting new records for deadly police violence nationwide” Police violence surged most *in Trump states* and states that refused to enact ‘reforms’ policedata.org www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

🇺🇸 MEMORIAL DAY 2025 Bitter pill to swallow this MEMORIAL DAY 🇺🇸 Remembering my Dad (left photo ArmyWWII) and my Brother right photo Marine Vietnam) They both served our Country with HONOR They would be outraged if alive today to witness our Country now I HONOR ALL THE FALLEN with gratitude

I do understand that Biden’s inner circle covered up his decline. Got it. What I don’t understand is the same journalists and pundits pounding that story are ignoring this psychopath like it’s normal. I accepted Biden was old all along. I can’t accept this lunatic leading us.

1) Send this to a Trumper. 2) Watch their head explode. 3) Thank me later.

Honoring and Remembering our US Military Personnel who died in service to our country. Prayers, love, and strength to all who have lost a loved one, and to those who served. #MemorialDay 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
