Q: Will you disavow the Muslim Brotherhood? El-Sayed: Yes. Why are you asking the question? Do you assume that I wouldn’t? Q: Yes, because I have not heard you disavow them yet. El-Sayed: Have you disavowed them? I have not heard you disavow them yet.

This is the most heartbreaking stories I’ve heard in a long time. ICE detained 2-year-old Orlin Hernandez Reyes’ mother. She begged to be reunited with him before deportation. ICE refused. What happened next is horrific. No matter how you feel about immigration, normal people don’t like cruelty.

World Central Kitchen is on the ground in Spokane feeding folks displaced by the fires, so if you're looking for ways to help, here's a good option: donate.wck.org/campaign/829...

Tales of everyday corruption. Pete Hegseth cancelled the $400,000 contract for making uniforms for the Blue Angels on the grounds that the contract with "The Sewing Box" was DEI since the firm is Black-owned. Instead, he awarded it to a Trump donor for $1,690,000, a 325% price increase!

"Maria" is working in Coachella CA doing maintenance on the lemon trees. She wears thick gloves and sleeves to protect herself against the lemon thorns. She shares, "I will work any job to feed my children." Today Coachella temps are predicted to reach a high of 118°. #WeFeedYou

Appalling cruelty — and all to fund more tax cuts for the rich.

"By [2030], the authors believe, the cost will be a total £44.7bn.... Using many years of data on the links between NHS spending and patient health, the authors’ model forecasts that this will cause an extra 229,000 deaths by 2036... 2x the avoidable deaths Britain suffered during Covid."

nobody in British politics seems to want to say it but the single biggest driver of their inability to keep a prime minister for any length of time is that Brexit was stupid and ruinous and made everyone’s lives worse

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #DV1 #ONEV1 Thank you, Gov Katie Hobbs, for defending Arizonans against the Republican budget cuts. She deserves re-election. Such fights are happening in other states as well. Vote Blue for every office, local, state, & Federal.

“.. American officials did not learn of the outbreak until Thursday, nine days after the World Health Organization did, and almost a month after the first person died.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/05/20/h...

This is flying under the radar, but Trump's cronies have started their own organization to plan 250th anniversary events. Not only is their "Freedom 250" receiving taxpayer funds, it's also soliciting big donations from corporations in exchange for face time with Trump. Everything is for sale.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

new zealander everlee wihongi was due to meet with her lawyer yesterday. then ICE moved her to their most notorious tent facility in texas: 3000 people, highest death rate, most sexual assaults. and today, she disappeared off the system. please RT: www.webworm.co/everleehasdi...

So Texas, Florida, Missouri, North Carolina, and Tennessee can redraw districts without a referendum and that stands, but when Virginia lets voters decide directly at the ballot box, it gets overturned?

This is an attempted vehicular manslaughter by the President of Cornell University on his own students, for the crime of opposing war crimes committed towards Palestinians, caught on camera by witnesses. He should be removed from office and prosecuted under the fullest extent of the law by Monday.

This story is insane. Married an American, arrested at her greencard interview, flown out of state, nearly killed multiple times when her diabetes was ignored and then mistreated. When she finally got out? Found out her credit card had been used illegally. www.daylightsandiego.org/san-diego-wo...

🚨 Trump's cronies are circulating a draft executive order to declare a phony "national emergency" over made-up foreign election interference—just so he can seize control of our state-run elections. This isn't about integrity—it's a blatant attempt to rig the midterms. Tell Congress to act NOW:

Susie Wiles is wearing an Apple Watch during a highly classified meeting on Iran. Unreal.

Jack Shanahan, retired US Air Force General and first Director of the Department of Defense Joint Artificial Intelligence Center:

It would behoove all of us to call congress. 202-224-3121
