Lorenzo Salgado lived here longer than I’ve been alive, married to his wife of 30 years. Worked a blue collar job building houses to put his three kids through college. A real American and the kind of man they tell you you’re supposed to be. Fascism is so perverse.

A quick and important watch! More democracy. Less corporate power.

Some darn good endorsements in there, if we do say so! 💪 Graphic from @distillsocial.bsky.social

The son of the man shot and killed by ICE: I am Ronaldo Salgado, the oldest son of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. He should've been picking up the last of his guys before heading to finish up construction. Unbeknownst to all of us, my dad had been shot inside his van by ICE agents in unmarked cars.

A tense hearing took a sharp turn when a Democrat boxed in Postmaster General Louis DeJoy with one deceptively simple question — then used his answer to land the real blow.

Fixed it: Billionaires apply for MORE corporate welfare. Oracle, the tenant of the Saline Twp data center project, wants 50% property tax cuts since its costs have skyrocketed from $7B to over $43B in under a year. They already pay no sales/use taxes. Twp residents get nothing for their trouble.

"The authoritarian we now have in the White House is a direct result of not holding him accountable" Accountability will be key moving forward!

‘New terrifying levels’: 10 people fatally shot by immigration officials in Trump’s second term #TheGuardian

💯 This is horrific and unacceptable

Mexico's President, Claudia Sheinbaum, implies during a press conference her government will take action after an ICE agent killed Mexican national Lorenzo Salgado Araujo.

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

🤨

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is not about the southern border. ICE is about normalizing paramilitary force on our streets. It cannot be reformed. It cannot be retrained. ICE must be abolished.

Oh... cool. 😒

Hey, um, anybody seen Mitch? Dems, wanna look into this maybe?

THIS SHOULD ALARM EVERYONE Trump’s DOJ is sending election monitors to Detroit, Lansing, and East Lansing for Michigan’s August 4 primary. The real target isn’t just the election. It’s public trust in blue cities.

Trump told you he’d run America like a business. He is. It’s called asset stripping. You go in, sell the profitable pieces, gut the workforce, load it with debt, & walk away rich while everyone else holds the bag. Venture capitalist politics. Cartoon by Jorge Gonzalez

Here's my full interview with CNBC, covering my bear case against generative AI, OpenAI's questionable finances, AI's lack of ROI, and how all of this is a symptom of the tech industry running out of hypergrowth ideas. It's great to see the mainstream media discussing this. youtu.be/TtmPccUTDP8?...

El Sayed is leading in the polls and reflects the majority of Democratic voters when it comes to their policy positions. He is critical of Israel and billionairss which means the entire Dem establishment is about to go scorched Earth on him. Just watch. It'll be disgusting.

I think this might be one of the most incredible, unsettling and symbolic photos of today’s America I’ve ever seen. I can’t stop looking at it. From Reuters, published on the Guardian website.

‼️ Voters who have already cast a ballot for McMorrow *can* change their vote. 👇 www.michigan.gov/sos/-/media/...

To Senator McMorrow, her family, her staff, and her supporters: thank you for the work you did for democracy. The same party insiders she had the courage to challenge have been bullying anyone who opposes their chosen candidate.

“Most of us will mark today with grilling and fireworks and a long weekend. I’ll probably do some of that too. There’s nothing wrong with joy — the people who fought for this country would want us to have it. But joy without reflection is just consumption.“

It's still our country. If you were disgusted by the way Trump tried to make 250 about him, not about America, join me in planning a Celebrate Your Vote party for November. Let's make sure we keep the Republic. joycevance.substack.com/p/its-our-co...

For decades, the senator has argued that concentrated wealth threatened American democracy. Now he’s betting that frustration with Big Tech, billionaires, and unchecked AI is reaching a tipping point.

🔥🔥🔥

ICE Goons have entered the home.

Maybe… and hear me out… the real issue isn’t the tiny number of trans athletes... Maybe it’s the unaffordable college tuition. 🤔

Nothing to see here 😑

JOIN US! Saline Canvass Launch! Abdul for Senate! July 11 Let’s gooooo!!!

“Here’s the distinction that matters: partisan means loyalty to a party label. Principled means loyalty to a standard, applied consistently, regardless of label.“ 👏 Excellent piece for Indivisible groups hung up on endorsement.

@mi-swim.bsky.social endorses @abdulelsayed.bsky.social 🙌

The only minority rights the Supreme Court protects are those of billionaires.

Not great, fam.

We’re excited to announce our endorsement of @abdulelsayed.bsky.social! Abdul is the leader this moment demands. As a physician, public health leader, and lifelong Michigander, he has dedicated his career to improving working people’s lives.

President Trump’s attempt to redefine birthright citizenship was a flagrant violation of the U.S. Constitution and a deeply dishonest effort to erase one of the most fundamental principles in our country. www.npr.org/2026/06/30/n...

“From the beginning, Abdul’s values have been clear and consistent; he has always refused corporate donations and has made Money Out of Politics a centerpiece of his campaign. We believe Abdul stands above other candidates on this core issue.”

So… are Dems just copying the fascist plan now? Did I miss the part about strengthening democracy? Taxing the rich? Guaranteed healthcare? 🧐 Like, not even an original name? Nothing?

The U.S. Supreme Court has “declared war” on American democracy, on “modern society,” and on “everything it takes to function in the 21st century,” warns Nobel laureate Paul Krugman, after the court expanded presidential powers once again. (cont.) www.msn.com/en-ca/news/p...?

@abdulelsayed.bsky.social just announced a comprehensive AI policy platform 👇

Sen. Chris Murphy: "Right now the biggest threat to this country are not a handful of House candidates in New York, it is the president of the United States who is trying to destroy American democracy."

Can we like maybe win the war against the fascists before starting a war with other Democrats?

🚨 Statewide Indivisible Michigan @mi-swim.bsky.social just endorsed @abdulelsayed.bsky.social for Senate! Let’s goooo!!! 🙌

Johnson to GOP: if we will, you can keep crime-ing
