#ObamaCenterOpening Watching the opening of the Obama Presidential Center and remembering Nov. 4, 2008 in Grant Park, Chicago. Unforgettable! Longing for the day when we can experience this kind of joy again. youtu.be/aKgwDbUJ-5U?...

Trump trying to gaslight us into forgetting about the Jan 6th coup attempt (along with his implication in the Epstein files). NEVER FORGET! apnews.com/article/just...

If only Switzerland and the Caymen Islands did the same. #nobillionaires time.com/article/2026...

Trump overall job approval at 36% and sinking. My question: Who are these 45% of white Americans who still approve of this grifting POS? Unbelievable!

Trump is funding a Confederate militia to overthrow the US government and our Constitution from within. This is domestic terrorism and the American media treat it like just another news story. This is American democracy under attack and the free press are complicit in their refusal to yell “Fire!”

here's today's post: "the January 6 rioters are about to get millions, and We the People can go fuck ourselves" — why do we even have laws, if some shithead gets to ignore them? thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post —

The United States government just agreed to pay $1.8 billion to the United States president, approved by the president's own personal lawyer who represented him when he was convicted of 34 criminal counts. This is the biggest scandal in all of American political history.

Enough that Trump pardoned J6 rioters that attacked, injured and killed Capitol Police. Now he wants to reward them with OUR TAX MONEY?? Remove Trump from office NOW! www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

This should be the headline story on every news publication and telecast including local news every day for several days. But it won’t. It will be shrugged off like so much else by so much of media. The most corrupt thing that has ever come out of the US govt.

The count on you being exhausted by the firehose of corruption and bullshit. But THIS. THIS is grounds to march on DC and demand the END of this mafia administration. This is the biggest middle finger to America.

This 👇 - They have failed both the Judicial Oath and the Constitutional Oath. They are not impartial, neutral arbiters of the law and don't even try to hide that they are influenced by their own personal political preferences.

“I’m paying for it… free of charge… zero cost to taxpayers…” 🤥

By throwing out the choice of VA voters, it’s now official: The U.S. is a GOP run oligarchy and American democracy is dead. Nice experiment gone awry. I hate what we’ve become. apnews.com/article/redi...

Memo to Trump: EVERY war in U.S. history began as a #MiniWar. www.fox47news.com/business/tru...

Interesting. This must be a new kind of chess where you compete to put the pieces back where they were before you smacked them off the board.

Happy #MayDay! Here’s a post I did a while back about the significance of the day & Chicago’s Haymarket tragedy that sparked the workers’ rights movement in the US. I designed this poster & plaque in 2011 to mark the 125th anniversary of the Haymarket Affair. www.davesink.com/ink-blog/chi...

#americanfascists Todd Blanche and Brendan Carr can go fuck themselves. Thank you for your attention.

Oh

The title is fitting. A patient was being treated for Stage IV colorectal cancer. She had qualified for clinical trial, a her last-chance to slow the spread of her cancer. Her trial was about to start when NIH funding was pulled overnight, & it was canceled. She died. Many more stories. 🧪

Every one of us in danger from #ICELawlessness whether you are a citizen or not because these ICE & CBP thugs are sadistic monsters who care nothing about the rule of law & will brutally injure & even kill & then lie about it. Are you willing to tell 3 friends about how Tucker Collins lost his eye?

Orbàn CONCEDES DEFEAT!!! Suck it JD, Donnie, & Vlad!

Apocalypse Later.

WATCH: The White House took down this video, but we still have it. Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

This is some added background on the Statue of Liberty 🗽 protest arrest, for those who are asking for more info. 🧵

Lady Liberty 🗽 being arrested ✊🏼 at the L.A. protest by a couple of fascists in blue, who said that arresting her was the highlight of their day. 😒

More utter BS from Faux News: Turd Blossom Karl Rove says polls show Dems more unpopular than GOP or Trump due to the DHS funding showdown. In fact, ALL POLLS, even those cited on FOX NEWS show the exact opposite. www.mediaite.com/media/tv/the...

If Trump is considering replacing Hegseth as Sec of War, here’s your guy! Noted military strategist Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo (who has never served in the armed forces) thinks the US should reinstate the draft. www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ma...

Absolutely right! That is what Republicans do — take credit for other people’s work.

Another murder carried out by ICE. Yes, he would’ve died eventually, as will we all, but who knows how long cancer treatments would have prolonged this man’s life? #fuckICE www.startribune.com/how-ice-deta...

TOMORROW: Be a part of history! Show the world that the majority of Americans oppose the most corrupt, inept, criminal, orange "president" in U.S. History. NO KINGS. Also: NO SERIAL LIARS/CONVICTED FELONS/ADJUDICATED RAPISTS & NO ILLEGAL WAR IN IRAN Be there. Make your voices heard! 🇺🇸 ✊ #NO_KINGS

Our edu system has failed when we can no longer interpret simple poll data. 48% of Ds believe the party is “in the right place or should move further left” while 38% think it should be more moderate. Yet this opinion piece has the opposite take. Do better USA Today. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...
