Congress eliminated public media funding, and the president signed it into law. At a time of deep division, public media brings us together. Help keep it strong. Join our monthly donors today: n.pr/458sOhq

Afterwards, Sen. Padilla framed what happened in exactly the right way: "If this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question...I can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, to day laborers, in Los Angeles & throughout California & the country."

Marine veterans are speaking out against the troop deployment in Los Angeles. Across the country, they’re taking down their American flags that have flown in front of their homes for years. Remember, we have friends everywhere.

Can you imagine the tea party reaction if Obama had federalized the Texas national guard for domestic law enforcement? Not one of those fucking cowards will speak out against this.

The world is watching. And we have friends everywhere. Upload everything, every moment. Don’t give them the chance to twist the truth. We have people on the way to help. You’re not alone. ✊🌙💚

A-FUCKING-MEN. Billionaire welfare queens leech off of our infrastructure for business and pleasure daily. Pay up, bitches.

Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

What?!?! The EPA has drafted a plan to eliminate all pollution controls from coal and gas-fired power plants. The agency claims these plants “do not contribute significantly” to dangerous pollution or climate change, arguing their emissions are a small and declining share of global totals.

Yesterday or today would have been great days for Congress to step up. Tomorrow would be cool, too. The clock is ticking, and shit's gonna hit the fan hard, and soon. If they don't, our nation is kaput.

I cannot believe this is something we're talking about right now. FFS.

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

props to the camera guy or gal. sick shot!

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

Project 2025 is the most successful Science Project ever. Congrats, kids. Your I've League pedigree will be remembered as the most vile humans to disgrace the earth you stand on. This is our land, not yours. Get Fucked, MAGA.

Jack is definitely onto something here.

Martial Law. It’s the elephant in the room. It’s what authoritarians resort to when the tide turns against them. It’s what the authoritarian in this White House is setting the stage for. 🧵…

Florida's aren't exactly known for doing the right thing, or flexing their brains when it comes to politics, but maybe just this once, they show up to prove us wrong?

Randy Fine, running in FL’s special election next week, threatened to defund the Special Olympics because they invited a school board member he didn’t like to an event. t.co/IpUownJHA9

facts matter.

According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact it’s specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. He’s lying. @markwarner.bsky.social

These are bigly numbers. Another of people are talking ...

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@aoc.bsky.social

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

it's long past time to send this ELON fucker off to Mars.

Only in America could a Ketamine-infused South African oligarch call a navy captain, astronaut and sitting US senator "a traitor" for supporting our allies and standing up to Russia...

Not OK👇

ICYMI: Jane Roberts, wife of Chief Justice John Roberts was paid more than $10 million by a host of elite law firms, a whistleblower alleges. At least one of those firms argued a case before Roberts after paying his wife hundreds of thousands of dollars. www.businessinsider.com/jane-roberts...

I think they want US to suffer and die.

What’s the purpose of this? There’s already very limited wiggle room in the turnaround from the meeting to vaccine production. If this isn’t rescheduled quickly, vaccines won’t be ready before peak flu season.
