Gov. Pritzker: Trump, do not come to Chicago. Your remarks over the last several weeks have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties. Most alarming, you seem to lack any concern for the members of the military that you would so callously deploy as pawns in your alarming grabs for power

Networks should be more afraid of us, the viewers, than they are of the Felon-in-Chief and his bully tactics. We have power to bankrupt them. Why are we not using it?

This is how it’s done, No Bull 💩, No drama and No Grandstanding!

Forever

Gotta love Gavin! ❤️ 👇👇👇

This picture will help explain to future generations what Fascism looks like.

The speaker of the house holds nothing but disdain for those 1,600,000 Louisianans who rely on Medicaid. 40% of his district will be severely financially impacted. How many will die as result? Make the call, 202-224-3121. Tell him how you feel.

This is worth repeating so I going to repost it!

New Orleans is a blue city in the middle of a heavy red state. A fact that hate to have admit, but it is true. But even we had the bravery to gather 1500 resisters to trump's attempts at dictatorship. Glad to see San Deigo got more and that nationwide reports are that the total is about 5million.

“We should measure the prosperity of a nation not by the number of millionaires, but by the absence of poverty, the prevalence of health, the efficiency of the public schools, and the number of people who can and do read worthwhile books.” ~ W.E.B. Du Bois: A True Patriot

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand. Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

One of my favorite signs of the day.

@governor.ca.gov SAID IT BEST THANK YOU GOV NEWSOM FOR YOUR INPUT👍🏻 AND BY THE WAY I'M PROUD TO CALL YOU MY GOVERNOR..

California is the 4th largest economy in the world. We don't need to accept this bullshit.

$134 million that should be going to LA’s fire recovery. Shameful.

Donald Trump is behaving like a tyrant, not a President. By turning the military against American citizens, he is threatening the very core of our democracy. I’m asking the court to immediately block these unlawful actions.

Donald Trump commandeered 2,000 of our state’s National Guard members to deploy on our streets.  Illegally, and for no reason.

Donald Trump deployed more than 700 active U.S. Marines — men and women trained in foreign combat, not domestic law enforcement. We honor their service and bravery. But we do not want our streets militarized by our own Armed Forces. Not in L.A. Not in California. Not anywhere.

The founding fathers did not live and die to see this moment. It’s time for all of us to stand up peacefully.

California’s firefighting resources are already seeing cuts by the U.S. Forest Service, and now, Trump’s illegal military deployment threatens them even further. That’s why I’m launching a new CAL FIRE recruitment drive to ramp up efforts and keep our communities safe.

Paula Poundstone tells trump that 1. she isn't coming and 2. exactly why she is boycotting his egoistic demand for love and obeyance. I agree. F trump.

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook. Our duty is to stand up to brutality. Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

@governor.ca.gov pulled no punches in his speech last night. Democracy dies when we stay silent. It’s time to stand up, speak out, and reclaim our power. 🗳️✊ Your voice. Your vote. Your duty. #DemocratsAbroad #DemocracyInAction #WeThePeople

That part.

I just filed an emergency motion in court to immediately block the ongoing and unnecessary militarization of Los Angeles. The federal government is turning the military against American citizens. This is unprecedented and threatens the very core of our democracy.

The USA is barely recognizable after 4 months; if you think you can sit on the sidelines and it will be handed back to you in four years you are out of your mind.

We won...!!

So very true

So the Republican Congress can pass a bill renaming the Gulf of Mexico, but can't seem to find the time to stop Trump's erosion of checks and balances or tackle rising housing and grocery costs? Their priorities couldn’t be more clear.

Shocker: The cult who worships a charlatan with the IQ of a turnip doesn’t like the Pope with a Mathematics degree from Villanova.

Congratulations to His Holiness Pope Leo XIV on his historic selection. Doug and I join millions across our nation and around the world in praying for him as he steps into his new role and leads the Catholic Church.
