This is going to hit hard and hurt all of us.

Walmart & Target are forced to raise prices due to tariffs. The price of a Jurassic World T. Rex toy went from $39.92 on 4/27 to $55 on 5/21 - 𝟯𝟴% higher. "We'll keep prices as low as we can for as long as we can given the reality of small retail margins." www.businessinsider.com/walmart-pric...

This article sums up my feelings perfectly, and it speaks to my disappointment with so many people who support him. It is written with such heart and thoughtfulness.

By continuing to support this man, you have gone against everything you told me was important growing up: decency, honesty, fairness, maturity, and empathy. Either you were lying then, or you're wrong now. Which one is it? johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/you-raised...

Well said, Mr Walz 👏👏

Walz: We don’t need to run government like a business, because we’re not in the profit-making business. We’re in the business of improving lives and looking toward the future. And second, this guy has a proven track record of being an absolute failure.

If Biden, as president, had fallen asleep at the Pope’s funeral, it would have been the top story in America for days. Trump falling asleep at the Pope’s funeral today won’t be, because our media is broken.

The requirements for obtaining a firearm should be at least as stringent as the requirements for voting

California Dreamin’… 😎@jerasikehorn.bsky.social

Make it mandatory nationwide in order to purchase a firearm, you’ll need a birth certificate, a 'Real' ID, or a valid passport… Let’s. Do. This. 😎✨

Raskin is so good…

Acyn@acyn.bsky.social

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

Am I crazy to have a glimmer of hope? Just for a second, but I felt it. Thank you for realizing that all of us are not deranged.

This is one of the most touching kindest messages I’ve ever heard at a time where Americans are really hurting. The person in this video is on Bluesky @whumpitup.bsky.social and give him a follow. Thank you so much for your beautiful message. If you haven’t seen this video it’s a must watch 👇👇👇👇👇

Man. There are a lot of cynics out there. If what Booker is doing doesn’t bring YOU joy, there’s no need to shit all over everyone else’s appreciation.

Yes! Finally!!!

Cory Booker is now in his *third hour* on the Senate floor—still speaking with heart, fire, and fierce conviction. He’s not just holding the floor—he’s holding the line for democracy. This is what moral courage looks like. Keep going, Senator. We see you. We stand with you.✊🏽💙 @booker.senate.gov

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup

Quite the quandary… 🧐 It would be funny, if it weren’t so severely DANGEROUS!

Do not obey in advance. Resist these fascists on everything. Call them out on their egregious lies and unconstitutional actions. Somewhere along the way, these feckless (GOP) politicians forgot that they work for us. Get loud; silence is complicity and apathy opens the door to fascism.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.
