The most striking data point is that low-political-knowledge, low-news-engagement voters — roughly 27% of the electorate — have swung from supporting Trump by 11 points in 2024 to disapproving of him by 13 points.” @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social

Requiring millions of American women who changed their last name after marriage to pay for a passport just to prove their identity to vote is a poll tax. Call your Senators and tell them to vote NO on the SAVE Act (202) 224-3121 LWVUS.bsky.social

For those wondering whether to focus on ICE, Epstein or affordability, the answer is all of the above, it’s the same story: The same Epstein class that has been hoarding our wealth so we can’t afford anything are profiting off the abuse of children, whether in concentration camps or Epstein island.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!" Social Security - "That's socialism!" Debt free education - "That's socialism!" Universal childcare - "That's socialism!" Billions for ICE, refurbishing Trump's Qatar jet, and tax cuts for the rich... "That's just how it is."

This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want you to see. His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert. Trump is worried we’re about to flip Texas.

SAVE Act requires IDs at the ballot box AND requires states to hand over voter rolls to DHS. DHS sec said the govt must “make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders.” Americans “don’t want Russia …where leaders choose their voters, instead of the other way around.”

Agreed. One step is to educate and demand journalists and editors stop using euphemisms and stenography of Trump regime talking points such as “detention centers” which is whitewashing and normalizing what are actually #ConcentrationCamps cc: @andreapitzer.bsky.social

STOP THE SAVE ACT SAVE requires every voter to provide hard-copy citizenship documents like a birth certificate or passport to register to vote. 1 in 5 American women lack proof of citizenship documents with their current legal name. SAVE does not allow access to online & mail-in voter registration.

The SAVE Act “…not only would require voters to show either a passport or a birth certificate with the name matching theirs in order to register, but would also require states to purge their voting rolls every month.” ~ HCR

So true! We must elect fierce & strong pro-Democracy leaders who will hold accountable the lawless & corrupt without delay!

we've seen this fake-out by Trump before. indiscriminate mass deportations are not over, no matter what Homan said in Minnesota.

🙋‍♀️

THIS example is key: with all the govt corruption, lying, disinfo, etc…it’s just not enough to hear promises that too often are made to win votes & later broken. I NEED evidence-past actions PROVING their positions. THIS is where we are folks. Minneapolis: “We have eyes, so stop your lies!!”

The way this is being presented all across social media, from seemingly “non political” accounts, is through the innocent question “what is the issue with requiring ID to vote?” They know that the majority of Americans agree with providing ID to vote, so they disingenuously distill the SAVE Act

#ResistAndUnsubscribe @profgalloway.com

Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.

I'm headed to the @munsecconf.bsky.social in Germany to stand up for California as a trusted, reliable partner on climate action, green energy, and innovation. By strengthening our partnerships and alliances, California is proving that we will always be a trusted ally.
