People on here rightly are pissed by the way Democratic politicians post as if they are witnesses to what's happening instead of ACTORS in what's happening. It's absolutely pathetic and weak.

happy 14th anniversary to all who observe

While Trump has tanks rolling through DC for his authoritarian parade on Saturday, we’re taking to the streets everywhere else for No Kings Day. With nearly 2,000 events planned nationwide, this will be the single largest protest of this Trump administration. Join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Imagine spending your whole life cos-playing and fantasizing about fighting the federal government sending troops in against its own citizens only to root for the government when the moment finally arrives

The ACLU weighed in on Trump’s decision to federalize the National Guard as an “inflammatory abuse of power. This action puts Angelenos in harm’s way, exposes troops to legal and ethical consequences, and shreds a fundamental democratic principle, that the military has no place policing civilians.”

Trump has undermined our independent judiciary here at home and is now attacking judges overseas. Whatever one thinks of the ICC's opinions, sanctioning these judges is a mafia-type response and more Trump/Rubio lawlessness. Our European allies are right to protect the rule of law.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

BREAKING NEWS: The federal government is sowing chaos in LA. Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, has announced the national guard will be deployed in LA to combat anti-ICE protests if Gavin Newsom “doesn’t do his job”. #50501 #50501movement #iceraids #breakingnews #stopice @polrev.bsky.social

I think about that CNN profile on Roberts all the time.

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

It isn't that America lacks courage. It's that we’ve become so cut off from one another that many of us feel alone, which makes us feel afraid. But when we are surrounded by courageous people, all of us become more courageous.  Courage is contagious.

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

US rule of law straining at the seams. US science infrastructure choked and reeling. Academic freedom squealing like a pig. Global economy teetering on the edge of meltdown. Wall St CEOs self-censoring on earnings reports. It took them 81 days. Talk about American exceptionalism.

I’ve never seen a tweet that more effectively communicates how we got to this current situation

No they didn't. That's not even remotely what they did. These are tech bros who are pulling stunt to make what GoT thought a dire wolf would look like. They didn't even use jackal DNA. They didn't "de-extinct" anything. It's a stunt. And Musk raved about this company a few years back so 🚩🚩🚩

As we showed the world on Saturday, we’re organizing everywhere — because that’s what it will take to rebuild the pro-democracy majority and reclaim its power. Find your local Indivisible group: indivisible.org/groups Or let us help you get started: indivisibleproject.formstack.com/forms/organi...

With more and more folks going to protests, it's so important that we know our rights in advance. Please protect yourself by learning what is legal, what cops might try, and the limitations to your 1st amendment rights.

Did you hear the big news? We’re taking to the streets nationwide on April 5 to fight back against Trump’s illegal power grab: handsoff2025.com

This should tell you all you need to know.

Call your Dem senators right now- urge them to vote NO on the continuing resolution. GOP needs 8 Dems to vote yes and so far only Fetterman secured. They Republicans have made the choice to shut down the govt by putting forth this horrible plan. Dems cannot be complicit in passing this. 202-224-3121
