A big deal (or it should be):

DOGE is not really gone, it’s just been made standard operating procedure now. Please stop celebrating DOGE ‘ending’ as a ‘win.’ It’s not. Their cuts have already killed 600,000 people. Elon stole all your data. Don’t fall for the clickbait.

This is who she was. Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best. Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

46 days. No votes. No government. We know why Speaker Johnson is keeping the House closed: to dodge a vote on the Epstein files and maintain the partisan stonewall that’s prolonging this shutdown. Mr. Speaker, DO YOUR JOB.

“You don’t need a political-science degree to understand why having wealthy individuals cutting secret checks to the president to pay the military is a bad idea,” @dgraham.bsky.social argues in The Atlantic Daily.

Hey everyone...LOOK OVER HERE! It's Lt. Col. Bone Spurs declaring war on an American city!!! Does his rough tough cream-puff cosplay make you forget about the EPSTEIN survivors, their lifetime of trauma & their courage to speak the truth in public? Yeah, me neither. #ReleaseTheEPSTEINFilesASAP

I feel the need to post this again. It's a warm reminder of who WE are and that things do not have to be this way. #WeAreAmerica

read trump's new executive order on domestic military dplymt + vigilante "portal." one of the reasons i am happy to be an independent journalist is so I can say that this is crazy, fascist, brownshirts shit without getting pulled into a meeting with PR for "opening us up to criticism from the right"

Peter Thiel, Musk, Stephen Miller, and Russell Vought realize their King is sick and dying. This is why they're ramping up towards a dictatorship. To ensure their groomed boy toy, JD Vance, has all the power to do their bidding.

This is all part of their plan. Resist peacefully. They are trigger happy and looking for an excuse.

A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasn’t much reporting on it. But I’m not finished thinking about it! 🧵 An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 “blast-proof” windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.

The American people deserve to know the truth: about who’s in these files, what they did, and how some of the world’s most powerful people could escape accountability for so long. More importantly, the victims deserve real justice—a justice they’ve been denied for years. Release the files.

Rockland, Maine adds to the call tonight: “Release The Files!” #ReleaseTheFiles #TruthMatters #ChalkTheTruth #Epstein #AudacityCAT

Stand With Immigrants Led by Immigrant Youth La Marcha de la Puebla A Nationwide Call to Action Portland, ME Aug 1, 10:30 AM Congress Square Park Peaceful sidewalk march to City Hall No more fear. No more silence. Our voices walk together. #lamarchadelapuebla #heroesnotvillains #laculturadelmundo

As Heather Cox Richardson writes, The Epstein story is about more than the sex trafficking of girls. It's also about rich and privileged people evading accountability for breaking the law." People like Donald Trump, in other words.

On August 1st, Portland, ME will join the nationwide march La Marcha De La Puebla to stand in solidarity with immigrants and their families. FMI - laculturadelmundo.org #lamarchadelapuebla #heroesnotvillains #laculturadelmundo

In a healthy society the clowns are revered. Their job is to point out the absurdity of of our leaders by mocking them. Colbert was a master clown. The orange imposter couldn't handle it, his pathetic ego is too fragile and dispatched Colbert. Raise a glass to clowns. www.npr.org/2025/07/17/n...

WTF is going on. Welcome to the police state.

This is terrorizing the population of Los Angeles, a city that Donald Trump has decreed an enemy. Masked thugs.

The Republicans timed the Medicaid cuts to hit right after the 2026 midterms so that the idiot masses will blame the Democrats after they take back the House.

Never before in the history of this nation has such a large redistribution of income been directed upward, for no reason at all

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.

As we move toward 2026 lots of grifters are going to come out of the woodwork to try to make money off of folks who disapprove of Susan Collins. Really important not to give these folks oxygen by sharing links etc. E.g. we find no record of the below group at FEC.gov. Watch out! #MEpolitics

What a horror and I wish I could believe it will be seen as such in the future instead of celebrated in textbooks required by the next generation of authoritarian leaders. It is possible and necessary to fight back so that the camps are dismantled and that doesn’t happen.

More honest than anything that ran in the Maine press last night or this morning. Good on Stephen but also troubling and a sign of deep, systemic rot in local media. #MEpolitics

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this? Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids. She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms. Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen. 🧵

As my friend Bernie Sanders says, "They've got the money, but we've got the people."

It’s not enough for Stephen Miller to orchestrate Trump’s deportation agenda. Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target and round up immigrants. He’s cashing in on his own cruelty.

If you're a New Yorker and still wondering how ranked choice voting works, watch this.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional. We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

Christian terrorist Boelter is said to be part of NAR: "New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), a new and powerful Christian supremacy movement that is attempting to transform culture and politics in the U.S. and countries across the world into a grim authoritarianism." www.splcenter.org/resources/re...

Mission accomplished! Educational "Know Your Villains" trading cards distributed free at #nokings protests in Augusta, Portland and Lewiston/Auburn. Did you get one? Lumenarrt: we make protesting fun! But wait ... there's more! New villains coming soon! FMI lumenarrt.org/know-your-vi...

There's a lot of dubious advice floating around about how to protest this weekend. I wrote a piece with my thoughts on the blog. blackgirlinmaine.com/uncategorize...

Americans do not kneel to kings.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. #AccountabilityForJanuary6th

This is, point blank, police brutality. 🤬 We need to share these videos far and wide to help counter the narrative that the Faux News crowd is being fed. And always, watch for (and help watch over) the helpers. If you're on TikTok, show Alexandria some ❤️ and support from us.

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

We’ll see you out there, Junior Rangers! 🐻🪧 www.nokings.org #NoKings Update: Portsmouth, NH is now moved to Prescott Park. This list is as-of Tuesday, June 10, but event times and locations may be subject to updates.

Susan Collins committee has removed its 'Hearings' calendar from the Senate website. Five months in, Collins has yet to schedule -- let alone hold -- a single oversight hearing. tinyurl.com/9fvny5pn #MEpolitics

If you agree, please share!

Los Angeles school worker shares frustration over parents having to leave their children’s graduation ceremony because ICE raided an elementary school’s graduation today

A police state is unacceptable. This must stop.

This! This is how we resist!
