The President of the United States claims to have authorized the military to use lethal force on US citizens, and there’s not a single Republican who has the balls to tell him that’s both illegal and morally wrong.

This has been bothering me, I teach PreK, and this year, during registration, we had a parent asking about sending her 4 y.o student with a bulletproof vest and backpack. She also asked us about our lockdown procedures. This is where we are America.

If this became a weekly series, it would run longer than The Simpsons.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone. Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care. The system is broken.

I'd like to tell you about Little Pink Houses of Hope. They are a nonprofit organization that provides free week long vacations to breast cancer patients and their families. They provide a place to stay, meals and activities. If you are a patient or would like to learn more, check out LittlePink.org

Willful ignorance should be accompanied by physical pain.

The way I love this. Mamdani is basically like “come say it to my face asshole.” Trump wouldn’t dare.

So not only do churches NOT have to pay taxes, they're going to get YOUR tax dollars to boot. This seems like oh, I don't know, government establishing a religion in violation of the First Amendment?

🚨 While kids in MN were gunned down at school, Rep. John James starred in a gun-fetish video with right-wing tabloid Michigan Enjoyer. Spraying bullets & “joking” that K-12 kids need weapons training. Guns are the #1 killer of kids in America—and James thinks it’s funny. No wonder they deleted it. 👇

there is no question in my mind that rfk jr is the most dangerous person in this administration and that his eugenicist ideology threatens the lives of millions of people www.advocate.com/politics/dem...

If you own a US flag & burn it as a freedom of expression, it is NOT a crime as the Chief Criminal stated. Its OK to storm the Capital, defecate on Senator's desks, abuse & attack police officers, screaming to hang the VP. For that you get a pardon, he is a traitorous hypocrite.

There's undeniably a HUGE crime epidemic in Washington DC -- it's mostly centered around 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, but clearly spreads out from there.

When they start coming for disabled people… you should get concerned, not supportive of them. Because history shows they never end with disabled people, it’s a gateway to the rest of society. (Going after disabled people is bad enough though without anything else happening)

At this point I can't tell if Trump knows everything of his mouth is a lie or if his brain is so addled that he actually believes it.

Texas in 2025.

I think it’s high time we take back the national narrative. For centuries Americans of all races, genders, religions, and abilities have worked to create a more perfect union, and we should shout from the rooftops that WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians.

That situation was even worse. There's a bit more video. bsky.app/profile/lata...

Rep. Adam Smith: "Look, it's pretty clear the president wants his own domestic police force and step by step he's trying to create it. We should be deeply alarmed by that regardless of how you feel about crime in DC or any other city ... it's a huge step toward an autocratic government."

NEW: Police bodycam footage introduced at the trial of Jared Wise showed him berating police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, and yelling "kill 'em" as rioters attacked law enforcement. He’s now working as a senior adviser for the Department of Justice.

Noticing a pattern here.

Funny how we have money for nuking the moon, unlimited no bid contracts to establish concentration camps/ national data bases, concrete rose gardens, $50,000 bonuses to every new regime ice agent, refurbishment of a private planes… etc… But no money for universal healthcare, veterans and schools…

Update: I offered the amendment. Not to refuse acceptance of the Qatari jet; just to prohibit Trump from taking it with him when he leaves office - after the taxpayers spend $1 billion to retrofit it. Failed 14-15. Every single Republican voted to allow Trump to take the jet.

Yes. But this will be entirely lost on @RepTimBurchett, sadly

I don't think most Americans realize how hard tariffs are about to hit them. The combination of 1) escalating tariffs, 2) companies slowly passing the cost to consumers, and 3) the repeal of the de minimis exemption in the Big Beautiful Bill, a lot stuff will be more expensive in 2027.

First birthday without my mom, I miss her so much.
