i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.

the vice president is a klansman

This all-male panel is deciding whether South Carolina women can be charged with murder for their pregnancies — and whether birth control and pro-choice websites stay legal. This a real thing happening today. Don't look away.

New Yorkers, the law is clear: if you have an EBT balance, a store that accepts SNAP must allow you to use your card. Follow these instructions and file a complaint with my office if you are denied: ag.ny.gov/consumer-complaint

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

Thank you, VA, NYC, and NJ for giving us hope. CA peeps, you can still vote!

GIVE ME MY FUCKING TACO TRUCK!!

There are more of us than there are of them.

Somewhere the worst billionaire you know is writing a very long tweet thread about Israel and the mayoral election.

58 billionaire spenders have spent over $18.4M in the NYC mayoral race to boost Cuomo and attack Zohran Mamdani. Why are they so scared of Zohran? Because they know he will end their unchecked power over working people and build a city that works for the working class.

I want to be the person I was this week a year ago. Knocking on doors, talking to young voters, thinking we were about to beat Trump for good and make history. I was more exhausted than I’ve ever been before, but I was full of joy and hope. I want that back.

It’s equally disqualifying if you’re too dumb to know it’s a Nazi symbol.

Not to diminish law review articles & law school committee work, but right now law professors should be working collectively on an intellectual & service project of immense, existential importance: building consensus around a revolutionary constitutional framework-of a Reconstruction 2.0 magnitude.

I'm old enough to remember when Republicans claimed to believe that the White House was such sacred space that getting a blow job in the Oval Office was grounds to remove a president from office.

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.   During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

future grandchild: like shit, from an ass? me in 30 years: Swear to God. Then he demolished the White House

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Stephen Miller is murdering Venezuelans and Colombians in cold blood bc he believes it helps his propaganda campaign to paint Latinos as dangerous. www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.

When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.

Breaking: Trump-appointed federal judge issues temporary restraining order against Federalized deployment of National Guard in Oregon. Judge: “this is a nation of Constitutional law, not martial law.”

The violated the 4th amendment rights of everybody in that building and zip tied children for this

I have lived and worked in and around Chicago for 27 years and I have been assaulted less often than Sen Paul has been in his own back yard.

a Reichstag fire, but one of them every week

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Good morning to everyone who will continue to speak freely and work to preserve 1A.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Political violence is evil, killing people is evil, a country with more guns in it than people is broken, and what the government is saying about political violence right now being a primarily leftwing phenomenon is factually, statistically untrue. They are using this moment to rewrite history.

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions. Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/h...

If Joe Biden had written that birthday letter to Epstein, he would have been impeached and removed in 5 minutes.

‘There is only one player’: why China is becoming a world leader in green energy

The United States is not a theocracy and religion has no place in our government.

Tell me you’re a racist without saying that you’re a racist.

This is nothing else but a hybrid war that Russia wages against Europe Let's name things as they really are:Russia has made an assassination attempt of the President of the European Commission Russia has been jamming GPS-signals over many Eastern Europe countries that are in its immediate vicinity

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:

“I have the right to do anything I want to do—I’m the president of the United States,” says the lawless and unfettered Trump musing about being a dictator. This is what John Roberts, the Supreme Court’s supermajority and over 77 million Americans have done to our beloved country.

Your turn @govpritzker.illinois.gov @govjoshshapiro.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov @kathyhochul.bsky.social

There’s no longer any pretense this has anything to do with crime (there are cities or parts of cities in SC and Ohio that have higher crime rates than DC — send the troops there!). This is about establishing a precedent for Trump seizing control of the nation’s capital when he wants to.

Fascism is here. We are not “getting closer” or “in danger of.” This matters because it frames our discussion: We aren’t trying to prevent it, we’re trying to defeat it. It’s not taking over our institutions, it’s taken them over. Otherwise, we’re always behind, fighting a past we’ve already lost.

Washington DC has 702,000 people, is 45% Black and has 0 senators Wyoming has 590,000 people, is 86% white and has 2 senators DC needs a state with proper representation, not a military takeover
