The moon sees... and it says chinga la migra.

A small group of Democratic lawmakers have just proposed legislation to bar members of Congress from profiting off prediction markets, citing elected officials' possession of "material nonpublic information."

There should be zero financial incentive to become a politician. It should be codified.

Emmanuel Damas, another individual killed in ICE custody. He had a toothache. They ignored it. He died of spesis. Read that again. Why do we need to fund this murderous agency? www.washingtonpost.com/national/202...

Ahhh. The terrible stench of patriarchy.

Law prof here. I want everyone to have absolutely no illusions that the courts will stop this war. They will not. This isn’t dooming, this is just the reality. We will have to find other ways to enforce the Constitution and put an end to the carnage.

Hey shout out to every left winger I don't give a fuck if you are DSA, Democat, DFL, Green, whatever, if you won your primary, good on you and good luck in the fall.

The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.

A lawyer for the Justice Department argued on Wednesday that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s vaccine decisions are protected from legal scrutiny. So much so that the Trump administration appears to believe that Kennedy’s actions are “totally unreviewable."

Why are there no whistleblowers willing to report the deleted Epstein/Trump files?

BREAKING: Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton calls for an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged foreign intelligence ties.

So I guess it was either World War III or drag queens reading books to our children.

I'm hoping that if enough of us vote early then the GOP won't be able to take away any form of early voting.

A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔

Trump can't simply say, "I won!" and stop the war because that would leave Israel vulnerable. Trump has committed you and your children to fighting in the Middle East forever without consulting you or your representatives in Congress. Netanyahu knew what he was doing when he engineered this.

A couple things… The “conflict“ in Iran *IS* a war. It is a war of choice. It is warfare without conscious. It was unprovoked. And I’m sick and tired of people suggesting & implying the only tragedies herein are that US Service Members have died. The people of Iran are innocents in this conflict!

I know one thing, before it's over people are going to get tired of me screaming about how if more of us would take advantage of early voting, a lot of what the GOP does to suppress votes on voting day wouldn't work.

Well would you look at that

So few Americans realize that the political apathy conversation is directly related to the voter suppression conversation, which is directly related to the structural anti-Blackness question. So instead we just go, "Why don't THOSE dummies vote?!?".

Jd vance wants to be attached to everything trump does. He owes his political career to it, and he says it openly often. I am only telling u that u should give him what he’s demanded. This is Vance’s war too. He did this Best of luck to you all

Al Jazeera has a useful tracker of who is getting killed and injured. www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/...

Statement from Jasmine Crockett.

There has never been an official, comprehensive record of Black-owned bookstores across the United States — until now

I’ve been notified about another death in ICE custody. This marks a stunning 40 deaths during the second Trump administration. This cannot continue. There must be real accountability for ICE and DHS.

MY LATEST: "If there’s no right to obtain damages when a racist postal worker refuses to deliver mail because he’s big mad a Black woman owns a couple pieces of property, then the postal service has no financial incentives to stop racist employees from tossing Black people’s mail into a river."

Spain's leader with a message that should be adopted by every top Democrat

Trump sent our servicemembers into a war of choice from his beach club in Florida. With no clear objectives or any sense of an endgame. And without any authorization from Congress—no public hearings, no justification to the American people. I will vote to end this war.

Trump’s illegal, unconstitutional, and deadly regime-change war was NOT based on any imminent threat. Iran was not planning on attacking U.S. forces. Congress must vote YES on this week’s War Powers resolution to stop U.S. involvement in another forever war in the Middle East.

How come “How are you going to pay for it?” is never asked about endless war?

Sen. Mark Warner, the ranking member on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, who was briefed ahead of the United States and Israel’s strikes on Iran: “There was no imminent threat to America.”

Disability Day of Mourning is a day dedicated to grieving disabled people who’ve been killed by their caregivers. The people we entrust to keep us safe are often the ones most likely to hurt us. Why? Because ableism is violence but the non disabled don’t see it that way. 🧵

Remember, it's your righteous, patriotic duty to die, so that Trump doesn't have to release the Epstein Files. Oh, and so that he can cancel your elections.

Awesome group in Keller TX today to protest the illegal war and to protect democracy!

In a Kakistocracy, the incompetence is weaponized for the benefit of the regime. Norms cannot be met, chaos rules. The least qualified and most corrupt run the show. There is no interest in justice and legitimate governance.
