House Republicans aren’t even in DC this week, and that should tell you all you need to know. They are not interested in negotiating a bipartisan deal that funds the government and protects Americans’ health care. Democrats are here and standing up for you.

Diversion. I usually carve them, but decided to “go over the top” this year!! Let me know what you think!! A real pumpkin, I used floral foam over the stem. November 1st, it should slip off, the wild deer and raccoons will get a snack! #pumpkin #falldecor #pumpkindecor #halloween

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

They want to cancel Jimmy Kimmel and kill free speech? Time to hit them where it hurts—their pockets: - Cancel Disney+ - Cancel Hulu - Boycott ESPN - Boycott ABC Let them know why you’re canceling/boycotting. - ABC contact: support.abc.com/hc/en-us/art... - Nexstar contact: www.nexstar.tv/contact/

“How can you be that ignorant?” Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) presses RFK Jr. on Covid facts. WATCH LIVE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3MO...

Great sighting today! #prayingmantis

It’s important for states like Washington to step up to protect public health, but diseases don't recognize borders. We still need a functioning and trustworthy federal health department—for that to happen, RFK Jr. must be fired immediately.

Every U.S. citizen, every U.S. military person, every U.S. law enforcement officer, is obligated morally and ethically to defend and uphold our Constitution. We are the Constitution or we are nothing. Full stop.

We need this to get viral #nationaguard #military #resistancekitty #revolution2025

I am so proud at the folks in my little town who came out to stand up to Fascism! This is a tribute to the folks in California who did this, wearing black outfits, covering their faces. It was an honor to film this for my community. If you look carefully you'll see my mom waving.

Happy Caturday! #caturday #catsofbluesky #cats #kitty

NEW: Gov. Ferguson said he remains committed to WA laws that bar local police from cooperating with immigration arrests despite threats from U.S. Attorney General Bondi. “Let me be very clear, Washington State will not be bullied or intimidated by threats and legally faceless accusations,” he said.

NY GOV. KATHY HOCHUL: “If we refuse to fight for our democracy, we’re doomed to lose it… bullies in Texas are not going to intimidate us.”

Happy birthday, President @barackobama.bsky.social! Thank you for being a shining example of what leadership, compassion, and service should look like.

“Michael Teter, runs The 65 Project, which—according to their website—works to punish lawyers who “subvert democracy.” One of Teter’s allies in this is David Brock, a major operative for the Democratic Party.” Highlighted by Rachel Maddow tonight.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

Greeted by the pair of siblings I’ve watched grow up. I’m pretty sure they were orphaned, nice to see them so healthy. #deer #stag #deerofbluesky #deerwhisperer

🚨Breaking: A flash flood emergency is unfolding as heavy rains have been pounding near Ruidoso, New Mexico today. Evacuations are underway. Initial reports indicate first responders are “overwhelmed” as they conduct rescue operations for residents trapped inside houses and vehicles. 🙏🏻

What, exactly, are we celebrating this Fourth of July? Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy? Our new concentration camps? Our dying economy? Our ditching due process? Our corruption? Our broken Congress? Our corrupt Supreme Court? Our ridiculous buffoon President?

Just give me a bag!! Happy #caturday #catsofbluesky #cat #catinthebag #kitty

I find it disgusting and disturbing that stores are selling Alligator Alcatraz merchandise. It’s not an amusement park. It’s a concentration camp where many innocent people will be tortured.

My God. Please make sure everyone you know knows this.

JUST NOW: Sheldon Whitehouse speaks on the Bill Ugly Bill: “This piece of legislation is corrupt. This piece of legislation is crooked. This piece of legislation is a rotten racket. This place feels to me today like a crime scene. The midnight transfer of wealth in this bill is disgusting”

Willy Chavarria kicked off his Paris Fashion Week show with a somber moment. The Chicano designer, who was credited with making ‘Cholo Culture’ high fashion, honored the nearly three hundred men who have been deported by Trump to CECOT prison in El Salvador without due process. This was a statement.

It was just a matter of time before someone put together an "ICE List." This is a crowdsourced, “journalistic project” run by Crustian Daily. It collects publicly available data (names, job titles, social media profiles, license plates, seen during ICE raids. #icelist.info / Offline today.

Former President Barack Obama issued a warning about the future of American democracy, while speaking at an event in Connecticut. Obama cautioned that the country is “dangerously close” to normalizing behavior “consistent with autocracies.”

Brutal.

You lose healthcare. They gain yachts. Keep spreading the word.
