Please put an end to this @govpritzker.illinois.gov. You’ve been a fighter for us so far - don’t stop now.

after millions of views and shares of my Portland Frog art. (thank you all🙏🏾) I got requests to highlight priests, and chickens, and Chicagoans, and T-Rexes, and more… all of us who refuse to bend the knee. so this is for US. 𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚃𝚊𝚕𝚕. 𝚆𝚎 𝚆𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝚆𝚒𝚗.

Hold up -- so what if he DID refuse to stand for the actual national anthem? That's the most American thing ever, to be able to express one's self freely. I haven't stood for the anthem in years.

Mr. Governor @govpritzker.illinois.gov Is it true that IL state police are at Broadview in tactical gear, helping ICE terrorize our people? I really hope not.

Fucking Brad Schneider. Can't wait for that asshole to be primaried.

JFC, that was most definitely a Nazi salute. Why is this the only video/post we're seeing of this?

Sorry, Pam, but there ain’t no integrity left to undermine.

These are some guys. They voted for the leopards. They opened up to me about what’s at stake for them when the leopards start eating their faces.

Time for the annual schoolhouse rock style history lesson about slavery and the origins of Juneteenth from The Roots

Brutal.

Holy shit this sent me back. These panels were some of the greatest resistance art of the time.

This is the problem with most of the Democrats at this moment in history - they are still deluding themselves that there are *any* adults in the Republican party. They're mostly acting as if it's business as usual, even as ICE agents arrest Senators and mayoral candidates.

Well, we can have better dems, that's why I'm running to unseat Brad. Www.coghillforcongress.com

Looks like Israel is in the "Find Out" stage.

OK, folks. I need some sign ideas for tomorrow’s #NoKings protest. My 9-year-old is thinking “Melt Down ICE!” A good start. Any others? (Maybe @prisonculture.bsky.social could lend a hand?)

Hard to understand why smart, dedicated journalists like @clarajeffery.bsky.social insist on defending the NYT when they do shit like this.

If you’ve never been to a protest, now is the time. If you've debated on going, now is the time. If you feel stuck and like you can’t do anything to help and a burning urge for Justice, NOW. IS. THE. TIME. #Protest #e3 #FuckICE #AmericaHasNoKing #NoKingsDay #r/50501 #50501st

A senator is forcibly removed from a press conference for asking a question, then tackled and thrown to the ground. And silence from Dems and mainstream media. Terrifying.

At the end of the day, these are just not serious people.

Guarantee this line will be included in an upcoming diss track.

This you @nytpitchbot.bsky.social ?

Hey @duckworth.senate.gov why did you vote to approve yet another Trump appointee? What will it take for you to understand that there is no appeasement, only opposition? Perhaps when you get primaried by someone who knows how to lead.

Fuck yeah, Canada!! Now *that* is how you show up and get shit done.

Josh makes a powerful, yet simple argument here - with great privilege comes great responsibility. It’s a lesson many can learn from (looking at you, Dems in general!).

I'd love to know who was in that room in the hour or so before Trump sent out his post that sent the market rocketing. You know those folks made a killing (along with the emperor), and will do so next time the market crashes, again directed by Trump. Too bad there's no SEC to investigate.

And here we have yet another day proving that this regime has no interest in creating a thriving economy or helping working people. These kleptocrats simply want to dismember the economy and strip it for parts, making whatever deals along the way that benefit them, and leaving the rest to burn.

Top of the hour news headlines from @npr.org and not a peep about @booker.senate.gov ‘s filibuster. Yet one more reason I stopped giving money to this sad excuse for a news organization.

It's Friday, and @duckworth.senate.gov and @durbin.senate.gov are still silent on their cloture vote. What's it gonna be? Are you caving to fascists or are you standing up to fight? Your legacies are on the line, and so are our lives.

Hey @duckworth.senate.gov and @durbin.senate.gov - VOTE NO on CR and NO on cloture. It's time you stopped being scared and started standing up to fascists. Be an opposition party, and OPPOSE! Or resign and let @govpritzker.illinois.gov appoint someone who will fight for us.

@schumer.senate.gov DO NOT VOTE FOR THIS CR!!!! Why do you insist open capitulating to fascists?! FIGHT!!!!

@joshtpm.bsky.social I'm surprised TPM hasn't done more coverage on the destruction being the whole point. Dismantling the government and kneecapping the economy aren't unintended consequences: the goal is to destroy it all, sow chaos, and then rake in profits before it all collapses.

Here are the Dems who voted to censure Al Green, the only one among them brave enough to stand up to fascists. The Democratic Party is not fit to lead. Bera (CA) Case (HI) Costa (CA) Gillen (NY) Himes (CT) Houlahan (PA) Kaptur (OH) Moskowitz (FL) Perez (WA) Suozzi (NY)

At this point, it just seems like the whole thing is on the brink of collapse. Speaks volumes as to how resilient this American democracy really is.

It’s increasingly clear that the people in charge of the government have no interest in running a government, no interest in winning elections, no interest in even having a robust economy. The whole thing is smash and grab. Burn it all down, strip it for parts, and keep billions for themselves.

The widespread dismantling and destruction of our government is terrifying on many levels, but I most fear the disappearance of the day to day oversight of "the public good": I'm talking about USDA inspectors, air-traffic controllers, bridge inspectors, etc. It has the potential to be a horror show.

I just called my two Senators urging them to resist all of Trump's nominations -- every single one. Now is the time for Democrats to fight, and fight hard.

What a pleasant and welcoming place this is. Thanks to all of you pioneers who helped build it!
