We noticed that calling Congress wasn’t moving the needle, so we shifted tactics and started pressuring businesses directly. Those businesses are now posting publicly and lobbying Congress and that happened because of you. Your voice is stronger than you think. Thank you.

PLEASE LET THIS BE TRUE!🙏🏼🙏🏼😮‍💨

Lina Khan helped Joe Biden set this up, but he never pushed it hard to take credit for it. Now, with Khan working for Mamdani, he's doing it for NYC residents. And actually telling them he's doing it. Good policies aren't good politics unless you take credit constantly for them.

Hey Portland Portland Press Herald: What did she *do* to oppose it? (Answer: Absolutely nothing.) #mediafail #MEpolitics

They actually think filling our mailboxes with this garbage (instead of actually talking to voters) wins elections.

NEW: Since Donald Trump waged war on Iran, Americans have paid over $8 BILLION MORE for gas.

One good use of the supposed two-week ceasefire is to get back to talking about the Epstein files

The emperor has no clothes. Time for the #25thAmendment. Congress and the Cabinet must act.

Hell yes. Excellent news. Sounds like this was an insane operation.

"Even an elaborate cheating scheme won’t be enough to deliver Orbán victory if the polls are correct." This is a big deal, and it should give opponents of American authoritarianism hope.

We call it a Golden Age… but it wasn’t golden for everyone. War in Ireland. Rising poverty. Religious persecution. And England entering the slave trade. Elizabeth I wasn’t just Gloriana — she was complicated. Full video on YouTube. #ElizabethI #Tudors #DarkHistory #BritishHistory

Protect Chaco Canyon! Trump’s DOI has announced a proposal to open it to oil and gas drilling—potentially destroying sites that have been sacred to Pueblo and Diné indigenous communities for generations. Say NO to revoking protections for this sacred place: eplanning.blm.gov/Project-Home...

The "America First" occupant of the White House keeps putting America LAST. He spends billions a day on unauthorized wars abroad, but claims there's no money for childcare or healthcare for families here at home? There is no deficit of resource—only a deficit of empathy.

Reminder to next dem government: take all of SpaceX’s federal contracts and give the money back to NASA.

the trump administration is selling this country wholesale to rapacious, extractive industries that will destroy our collective resources for private profit morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/breaking-t...

The death of a nearly blind refugee from Myanmar who was found on a Buffalo street in February — five days after Border Patrol agents left him at a doughnut shop — has been ruled a homicide, authorities said Wednesday. https://to.pbs.org/3NZGHsz

The White House has removed this video from their social media channels. But not before we could post it.

"The Secretary of Defense is a disgraced major that was kicked out of the DC National Guard."

So it's almost over. But he still might bomb Iran "back to the Stone Age." We're close to done. But we're not going to do anything about the Strait of Hormuz. That's up to everyone else—if they care about gas prices. But our gas prices are just fine. So...wtf?

House Republicans just rejected the Senate’s bipartisan DHS funding bill the one that would have ended the partial government shutdown and finally paid TSA agents who’ve been working without paychecks for over 40 days.

TSA workers have been going a month with no paycheck and they’re pissed that ICE agents are getting paid to chill and play airport cop. “TSA officers are sickened that we have unqualified DHS employees walking the airports, with pay, while we all suffer doing our qualified work unpaid.”

Here’s the message going forward, Americans are done with chaos, we want community. I agree with Rep Swalwell (D-CA) Defund ICE, and FUND TSA. Let’s be done with this bullshit‼️

Poland is planning to jail all the elites in Epstein files. They have started a task force to analyse the Epstein files as they don't trust the way the Americans have handled them.

Every single Republican voted no to fund TSA.

Soulless sociopath says what? 🤮 🤬 🖕
