This is so insane. #MedicareForAllNOW

She’s called over 30 churches and so far about three have said yes. The ones that haven’t are generally white “Christian”churches. Think about that. Out of 30+ calls only three would help a two month old starving baby. WWJD

I distributed all 150 copies of Megan's "How to Report ICE Philly edition" at Philly Zine Fest yesterday and at least 5 people returned to ask me if it was OK for them to print their own copies to distribute. I responded with an enthusiastic YES - that's the point and I hope everyone does so.

‘Saturday Night Live’ star Michael Che condemned the hatred being stoked by President Donald Trump’s supporters against recipients of SNAP benefits.

Nice job managing your peeps @schumer.senate.gov But hey, don't back the Democratic Mayoral candidate in NYC...

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

😆 🔥 some beautiful, creative resistance

Game on.

I wish more politicians understood how the economy is rigged against regular people the way Bill Burr does.

The woman petitioning SCOTUS to overturn marriage equality in the name of the sanctity of marriage is on her fourth husband.

What happens if you don’t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority? ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles /

WATCH — @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social : “Trump has been coordinating directly with Cuomo… it’s Trump billionaires that oppose our campaign’s vision of affordability for all New Yorkers — as he rips immigrants from their homes.”

David Byrne with NYC’s Brass Queens in Brooklyn….love this!

Family pets are being left behind at Southern California shelters as their families face deportation. At Carsom Animal Care Center, dogs like Bruce and Coco are quiet, confused, and up for adoption. Shelter staff say they've seen emotional goodbyes as families forced to leave the U.S.

"Reich citizenship will not be laid in the cradle of every one born in Germany, but will be ceremoniously conferred on him after he has shown himself worthy of it through special accomplishments, through loyal services to the State." NY Times, July 6, 1933.

I'm tellin ya. You may think I'm crazy for worrying about Trump stripping people of citizenship - and I hope I'm wrong - but there's a lot of things we couldn't imagine happening in the United States until they did.

UTAH… this is not a game…

“Going back to Egypt for me is a death sentence.” Ayman Soliman, an Imam at a children’s hospital in Cincinnati who comforts families in times of grief and has been here legally for 11 years, just had his asylum status revoked by Trump and was detained.

Senator @johnfetterman.com — whose wife was an undocumented immigrant, and who said he was grateful that her family “broke the law” — now speaks up supportively of ICE as they terrorize others. What a tremendous hypocrite. WATCH:

I love that former NYT public editor @sulliview.bsky.social is public-editing from the outside. "With this made-up scandal, combined with the pre-election editorial, the Times looks like it’s on a crusade against Mamdani. "And no lofty explanation about the mission can disguise it."

Mahmoud Khalil finally had a chance to watch a video of artists and actors reading Mahmoud’s letter to his newborn son from ICE detention. We’re overjoyed that Mahmoud is free to be with his family while his case proceeds. We'll keep fighting for everyone’s rights to free speech and due process.

This 940-page reconciliation bill has a list of horrific provisions. One of the worst is a $211 billion tax break to the top 0.2% who inherit $30 million. In this bill 16 million lose health care & hungry kids lose nutrition. Meanwhile, billionaires get much richer. Disgusting.

If Jeff Bezos can afford to rent Venice for a $50 million wedding, he can afford to pay his fair share in taxes.

Brad Lander would make a fine senator from NY state

 Medicaid is the backbone of the care that Charlie receives. "When I hear that some of our elected officials are suggesting that we're all just gonna die someday and that I should stop being so concerned about these budget cuts, I'm filled with rage."

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

As we head to Election Day, for folks who voted early, thank you. I know some folks have not yet made up their minds. I am making an appeal to you. Please do not rank Cuomo. I have worked with every single one of the candidates for mayor. I will tell you he does not like us.

Damn right!!!

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

😕 🇺🇸

NYC mayoral candidates today Lander: Immigrants matter to me the law matters to me mamdani: The law matters, free Lander Cuomo: Don't do it again Eric Adams: Today is my birthday

Thanks to NPR for explaining that due to the ancient, mysterious culture of Persia, Iranians "don't like to be attacked" npr.org/2025/06/16/n...

We know what we have to do to save our city from Andrew Cuomo. We're cross endorsing 🤝 @bradlander.bsky.social

LAPD when they think no one’s looking

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

Against all odds, Joni Ernst has made it worse

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Neguse was grilling Jim Jordan so hard this morning over language in the reconciliation bill to restrict federal judges' ability to enforce court penalties that Jordan had to consult with his lawyers

11 minutes. I believe these 11 minutes represent the continued obliteration of the what little is left of what we knew as democracy. It’s already in tatters. SOMETHING HUGE MUST HAPPEN TODAY. And I mean NOW. Attn @atrupar.com @kylegriffin1.bsky.social youtu.be/8FfRnvH1Ks4?...
