No Women Wednesday! A way to show our economic power. Don't buy anything on Wednesdays! Every Wednesday until we see change! If you are able, call out from work! We need to make it easy for all women, so this can be done anywhere and still have an impact! We need to come together to show our power

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."

Do you know what I hate most about him? It's that he robs us of our daily peace, every God damn day there is some new atrocity, every damn day he is in our lives. I hate that he is ever present, I long for the day when he is not!

This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the “baby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

Dear Americans, I always thought when your government inevitably built concentration camps for you that you would care more. I thought you’d know that even his supporters would be in danger. I thought much too highly of you. Love, God

After the 9/11 attacks, Denmark stood with the US deploying thousands of troops to Afghanistan & Iraq. Denmark lost more soldiers, per capita, in Afghanistan than any NATO nation aside from the US . Does Trump know what a magnificent ally Denmark has been

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here:

Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians have certainly said things about me that I found offensive, even outrageous. It never crossed my mind to call up the networks and say, "Hey, get rid of this guy." Because that's not how America works.

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.

People on the right and left are sick of big corporations - like media companies - having become such a dominant force in our economy and our culture. Whichever party offers a vision to break up concentrated economic power has the potential to capture a new alignment of voters.

It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents. But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents. It's expected to save families over $12,000 per child annually. This is a huge step forward — and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

Stay away from this country if you’re a tourist. It isn’t safe here. Not for citizens, and certainly not for visitors or foreign workers. We are a lawless nation under siege by its own government, and at war with itself. The United States as you knew, no longer exists. You’d fare better in Sudan…

I really am not a conspiracy theorist, but what was up with the guys behind Charlie Kirk giving baseball signals? What possible explanation could there be? Super super weird and shady.

What utter and complete fabrication. And WTF is transgender ideology? Because I can tell you what "antifascist ideology" is - it's pro-Constitution ideology; it's American and patriotic. It's what we fought two World Wars for.

The shooting of Charlie Kirk will have almost exclusively extremely negative consequences for American society in general, the stability of society in specific, and the safety of everyone living in it.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

Republicans will blame immigrants for everything, but stay silent on white supremacists, Jan 6th rioters, and school shootings. If y’all really cared as much as you claim you do, you’d call out all threats to our communities—not just the ones that fit your agenda.

Turns out... throttling the storied Washington Post opinion section by the neck like this doesn't turn it into something new or exciting! It turns it into print newsmax. Or truth social with better kerning or something. This is dime-a-dozen stuff now -- who's asking for this?

As a survivor, I can't even begin to express my rage and incredible sadness about the "birthday book" That there hasn't been any accountability just breaks my heart! They ALL knew. Holding sacred space for survivors who also are reliving their trauma because of all of this ❤ You are not alone.
