WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.

Holding the #flotilla and all of its brave souls in my heart. May they be victorious

So, I know I’m a little late on this, but isn’t it fantastic?

My religion teaches love, joy, freedom, equality, empathy. I mention religion today cuz it’s being so widely used to divide and alienate people. It’s heart breaking that so many leaders and regular people alike have fallen for false prophets who capitalize on and condone cruelty, fear, and hate.

Godspeed, Mr. Redford. Thank you for your brilliant work and masterful contributions to film, the environment, and a more beautiful world. You are my hero and a saint.

Some September moonshine for you all.

Well isn’t this lovely. Opera star sings Habanera (from Carmen) in the airport (?) What a terrific voice. #opera I don’t care if they’re staged, we need more profl free public #music and #art.

A field a flowers to brighten your day.

On November 4th in California, you will have the power to stand up to Donald Trump. You will have the power to stand up for people. We're going to give the people of this state the power to stand up for democracy.

California Democrats are now actively redrawing maps to eliminate five Republican-held seats. Can God get an amen?

You're welcome #bluesky... ☺️

Stephen Colbert you are and forever will be my hero. I have followed you on your hosting journey since your very first episode on Comedy Central. You are a warrior and a saint. 🧵 #thelateshow

I hope you’re all getting into some good trouble today. Thank you Mr. Rep. John Lewis! #mobilize

Thank you all so much for the very kind and thoughtful birthday wishes. You sure know how to make a gal feel special.

‘You say it’s your birthday It’s my birthday too yah.’ It’s my birthday tomorrow. Please join me and one of the goats of all GOATS in sending the entire universe some peace and love.

My heart is heavy for all those affected by the devastating floods in Texas. 💔💔💔

Once again, this is a massive public jobs program for fascists. This bill was never just about tax cuts and gutting social services. It's about investing our collective resources in violence and using state power to spread fear and destroy solidarity. We need to resist this with all we've got.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

The plastic crisis is DEVASTATING for seabirds. They ingest it. Feed it to their chicks. Get tangled in it. Together, we can give seabirds a fighting chance against plastic. Pledge to help reduce single-use plastics at the source: oceana.ly/4000aMN #WorldSeabirdDay #PlasticFreeJuly

Serenity now

You could be on Medicaid right now, and not even know it — that's because it's called something different in every state. So when House Republicans talk Medicaid cuts, they could be going after YOUR care. Call your representative today. youtube.com/shorts/NzWim...

Republicans in the House are trying to ram through a bill that would make most Americans poorer so billionaires can get a tax cut. Don't let them get away with it. Call your reps right now. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Are people protesting in Los Angeles? Heck yah. Is there wide spread violence and chaos? Heck no. #nokings

This is chilling to watch and utterly unacceptable in the United States of America. As a former Senator, I’m calling on all current members to speak out on behalf of Sen. Padilla and defend him and the Senate against these outrageous attacks.

Today, the court will hear our motion for the temporary restraining order I’ve filed to block President Trump’s militarization of Los Angeles. We need to put a stop to this chaos now.

Los Angeles is completely fine. A free and democratic city that respects equality, liberty, justice, the arts, self expression, qnd actual fun and joy which ironically these clowns know absolutely nothing about. I stand proud with Senator Padilla!! www.nbclosangeles.com/on-air/sen-a...

America and the world. SOS!!!! This is a total lie! The federal government is attempting to occupy the city or Los Angeles and the state of California. This is FAKE NEWS! #losangeles www.nbclosangeles.com/on-air/sen-a...

Rest in peace, Mr. Wilson. Thank you for the beautiful sounds. 🕊️ www.nytimes.com/2025/06/11/a...

Standing proud with Gov Newsome @governor.ca.gov, Mayor Bass @mayor.lacity.gov, Rep Waters, David Huerta, and all people everywhere affected by the barbarism of the DC lost boys. Don’t poke the bear.

NASHVILLE today…

I love this shot of @sanders.senate.gov on the megatron under the California palms.

Senator Sanders said there were 35,000 of us out there yesterday.👏 Thanks for coming @sanders.senate.gov and @aoc.bsky.social, and everybody who participated. #losangeles

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

Read so much about him yesterday that I forgot to post. One of the greatest actors of our generation. May he rest in peace. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ap...
