Democrats are rejecting a 7-week “band-aid” that delays the fight, because waiting means 20M face higher premiums ＆15M could lose Medicaid. Better to fight now than abandon families later. #TrumpsHealthCareShutdown

Same judge. While Miller rails about judges.

THE CLAIM: Democrats shut down the government because they want to give free health care to immigrants who entered the U.S. illegally. THE FACTS: This is false.

Skin too dark? Here's the suitably named Greg Bovino saying that "how they look" is a major criterion in picking out who to arrest. www.wbez.org/immigration/...

DO THE MATH people We as taxpayers PAY for mass deportation The costs are exorbitant 6.9 million per day to just house That's 2 billion 518 million 500 thousand a year And The numbers are growing What is the daily cost of detaining someone arrested by ICE? share.google/3FwKXgvmcyXw...

President Macron: “We were very naive to leave our public space to social media networks controlled by US or Chinese companies that don’t share our interests and not interested in survival of our democracies.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=MggN...

🚨 “They put black people in one van and immigrants an another… Trucks and military style vans were used to separate children from their parents.” THIS. IS. HAPPENING. People need to see this. We all need to see it. Nobody gets a pass here. Please share with your networks. 1/2

If this is okay with you, you are the opposite of American. But hey, he can do no wrong, right maga?🤮

Well, ICE kidnappings have hit close to home. A friend could not reach his adult son for a couple of weeks & feared the worst because his son is Puerto Rican. Sure enough, he had been taken by ICE in Missouri, while visiting, & not allowed to contact his dad. #StopICE #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Ret. General Mark Hertling on the speeches presented by the Secretary of War and the POTUS to top military officials: “It’s illegal.” m.youtube.com/shorts/R0A0G...

Incompetent gop lawmakers, like Nancy Mace, care so little for the lives & health of Americans that they'll eagerly peddle dangerous medical misinformation in the hopes of getting a pat on the head from the orange.

Republicans are lying to you. Dems are standing up for healthcare for US. It is illegal for a non-citizen to be on the ACA or Medicaid. Suggestion: if you know folks are on the system illegally, remove them—don’t cut services for everybody else. #GovernmentShutDown

My god. “Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

Why would a Christian Nationalist attack a Mormon Church? Because a Mormon attacked ,Charlie Kirk, a Christian Nationalist figurehead. Intriguing when you consider Mr Robinson's family are Christian Nationalists. Apparently, some Christian Nationalists do not consider Mormons to be Christian.

This is how you build community and help in the difficult days ahead. Dusty aka Goth Dad from @visionvideoband.bsky.social is a vet, former firefighter, and always an inspiration.

Captain Dylan Blaha has a message for the fascist authoritarian Trump regime and all military service members. 🙌🙏💪👏✊️👇

Millions of Americans marched against the US invading Iraq under the false pretence of weapons of mass destruction. How many Americans will march against the US invading itself under the false pretence of domestic terrorism?

This is Trump’s government shutdown-MAGA controls everything Democrats can’t back down If they vote to fund the government Trump will use the money however he wants-like bailing out his fascist buddies And Dems will be complicit as Americans get screwed With costs-like health insurance-exploding

Trump’s vindictive actions against James Comey only reveal how empty he and his regime’s hateful agenda is. Comey’s response to his indictment: “We will not live on our knees, and you shouldn’t either…Fear is the tool of the tyrant…I’m not afraid, and I hope you’re not either.”

No money for veterans or the homeless or hungry children, but plenty of money for Argentina’s unpopular leaders.

Listen to the experts. Listen to your doctor. Listen to your body.

Family separation is back under Trump. Just CNN alone found more than 100 American children left stranded after ICE took their parents. Here’s just one story… Meet Isaac

This Sunday morning, a priest is among many standing in solidarity with immigrants, modeling the teachings of Christ: “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” #SundayThoughts #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

If you need a laugh and some hope amid the grim headlines: youtu.be/Tsb1I7hqaJ4?... @mariaressa.bsky.social tells @thedailyshow.com we’re at “Armageddon” not “apocalypse.”

WOW😳 I don’t recognize this country anymore…now the threat of what the 🍊🤡 might do is enough to get someone fired Fuck everyone who voted for this & an extra big fuck you to those who didn’t vote

I can be a bit slow sometimes, but I just realized they're not against Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. They're against Diverse Ethnic Inclusion.

Hiding the truth.

Good morning! Start your day with something magical. Everything about her is perfect, but especially how she radiates joy as she dances. I'm convinced she is the reincarnation of some famous ballerina to have such confidence and poise.

Middle schoolers can be the gosh darn best. Off to the dollar store for wooden pins!

#ProudBlue For those who may be confused about Christianity from the “right wing perspective”, this will clear things up.

New Mexico set to become first state to offer free universal childcare. NM Democratic governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham, announced free childcare for all families, regardless of income. Estimated to save families $12,000 per child each year. Government for the PEOPLE. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Very Well Said….

AOC: Whether it is a member of congress, whether it is the President to assume and assert and cast blame when the FBI has failed to even apprehend the assailant, is absolutely an irresponsible action.

Rise up America 🇺🇸

Here's the video Trump just posted to Truth Social, with the claim that 11 people aboard the boat were killed. There is zero evidence of self-defense here. Looks like a massacre of civilians at sea. Even if they had drugs aboard, that's not a capital offense.

From my latest. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

The truth is there is no secret plan to defend American democracy. But what gives me hope is when people reject the cool cynicism of despair and choose to act rather than surrender. That is what keeps democracy alive, @marcelias.bsky.social writes.

Republicans: “Stop making everything about race.” Really? White people enslaved Black people for generations, stole Native land, lynched and segregated us, burned down Black communities that thrived, and treated Mexican land & labor like property to be taken. America already made it about race.

Did you know in 1890 manufacturing employees worked on average 100 hours a week? It would be decades before the eight-hour workday became real. It took labor activists and labor unions to turn the cry for change into policy and practice. www.americaamerica.news/p/a-labor-da...
