For when? When it’s too late to do anything about it? What a dumb argument. I hope no judge falls for it.

There is no such thing as overly alarmist. If more people had listened to the alarmists we wouldn’t be watching our constitution be shredded the same year we celebrate the 250th year of the document that condemned all the constitution tried to protect us from.

I hope nothing happened to the elephants who were just standing their ground and defending their home.

I notice this admin often uses “common sense” when they are making up numbers. This way, you can’t “fact check” them - they will just argue you don’t have common sense. Wonder if this will work with my bank when I tell them it’s common sense that I have more money in my account than they think

Not good

In Donald Trump’s America, the rich get tax cuts, the well-connected get stock tips, and everybody else makes sacrifices.

The great thing about America was the connection thru shared ideals, not common Northern European ancestry. What mattered was not your allegiance to a lineage or culture, but to our declared principles of governance. Otherwise, there was no reason to dismember the colonies from Great Britain.

"No president can decide to withdraw from NATO without Senate approval." —Marco Rubio in 2023 "It's the president's decision if we stay in NATO." —Marco Rubio in 2026

How long before Christian nationalists in the admin accuse Catholics of being enemies of the U.S.? In our past, Catholics were restricted from coming here, kept from public office, physically and verbally attacked, all bc of their religion. The pope was called the anti-Christ. Have we not learned?

Such very lucrative occurrences are never coincidences. So the only right answer is corruption.

Trump: "I'm the only president that ever took a cognitive test. I took it 3 times. It's actually a very hard test for a lot of people. It wasn't hard for me. It starts off with an easy question and by the time you get to the middle it gets tougher." #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #VoteOutRepublicans

We have updated our running catalog of Donald Trump's and his administration's cruelties, collusions, corruptions, and crimes. Another 48 atrocities have been added to the list. #LestWeForgetTheHorrors

My fear as well. “The Republican Party is telling us, with brimming confidence and zero shame, that it intends to make it harder for its opponents to vote and easier to control the outcome of elections. They are prepared to use every tool available to them — legal or not — to stay in power.”

She really did laugh. She really did say these things. These people are gross

I’m really tired of hearing why we should not tax cap gains bc people won’t trade or don’t tax billionaires because they’ll move. If they aren’t contributing substantially more (in real $) than we are losing in taxes, who cares. And I want a yearly filing proving their actual value vs loss in taxes

If we don’t even have the privacy about what happens inside our own bodies, don’t expect privacy anywhere else in the country.

The chaos across multiple airports is a totally unnecessary Republican-created problem. Dems have proposed funding for TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard, yet Republicans – who hold a majority in both the House and Senate – continue to hold these agencies hostage in order to get more funding for ICE.

This is who was deciding what would be funded. This is scary. Thank you for showing us what is going on behind the curtain.

www.thisamericanlife.org/give-a-littl... Every US citizen should listen to what ICE has become. I was taught to be proud of our country because here all are equal before the law and our govt protects human rights. I hope no one wants to be what we are now.

To date anyway.

Why is always important to go back to original source or as close as possible. And how disappointing that journalists (or their editors) used quotations inappropriately - obviously without checking their source. Also, just because a famous person says something does not make it true or inevitable

Pretty sure they brought in the wrong First Lady to testify...🤔😏

Nothing should be due on March 1. It comes too early every year.

Since returning to office, President Trump has added about $3 billion to his net worth — two-thirds of which came from his cryptocurrency ventures. The scale of these profits, and the way he has monetized the White House to generate them, is unprecedented. Learn more: bit.ly/3MSYmBN

There is a very important reason our Constitution gives the power of the purse strings to Congress- a check on executive power. It is something we used to celebrate. I even recall a preacher using the separation of powers as proof that the founding fathers used Christian principles to write it.

Trusted options include Nova Ukraine, United Help Ukraine, and Ukraine Power — all delivering generators and electricity support directly to communities in need. 🙏

As we await the release of Supreme Court opinions, I want to remind everyone just how much Democracy Docket is tracking: Active Voting Rights Cases: 169 Active Redistricting Cases: 47 Active Anti-Voting Cases: 91 Active Pro-Voting Cases: 74 Active DOJ Lawsuits: 27 Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Would be amazing if European leaders would also start throwing out truth bombs like this. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin. This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.

It is important to acknowledge who is standing up and who is just trying to get by. Every day Americans are standing up while the powerful are mostly standing by. Why aren't law firms standing up and sending lawyers to Minneapolis. Why aren't the corporations speaking out? Why isn't the media?

Answering questions outside the White House on Thursday, DHS Sec. Kristi Noem made clear that virtually anyone could face a Kavanaugh stop.

Today, Donald Trump--the president of the United States and a man with a history of election subversion--said: "We shouldn’t even have an election" in 2026. While legacy media has largely ignored this story, Democracy Docket has covered it from multiple angles. Support its work. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

I didn’t read the article, but the headline seems to say it all - free speech is blamed for chilling free speech. We are down the rabbit hole, through the looking glass, whatever metaphor you want for this insanity.

A reminder that Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra’s parents emigrated here during a period when Italians were considered to be a genetically inferior and criminal-minded underclass that Stephen Miller’s racist predecessors said should be excluded from America

A must read

As Pete Hegseth once said, “If you’re doing something that is just completely unlawful and ruthless, then there is a consequence for that.” Urge your Members of Congress to demand an immediate, public investigation into Hegseth’s extrajudicial killings in the Caribbean and Pacific.

You want to give your social media info for the past 5 years, your business emails for the past 10 years, your families’ dates of birth, emails, phone numbers, addresses, just to go on vacation? This is what the US wants anyone from a visa waiver program country to do to vacation here.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment. They are openly saying this. Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported? NOEM: We haven't deported veterans MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

I thought edited interviews were bad. Didn’t he sue because they edited Harris’s? It is so hard keeping up with the principles of this administration.

Pete Hegseth on Sept 3 talking about the strike on boats where 2 survivors were later killed in a second strike: “I watched it live.”

We so need new leadership. We need leaders who are bold and principled. It’s not always about winning the fight. It’s about being on the right side. And if you don’t choose the right side, you are de facto choosing the other.
