Resist Vote

A 56-year-old Mexican man held at a federal immigration facility in Laredo was found dead in his cell Saturday morning. His family says the center would not give him medicine for diabetes, high blood pressure and a heart condition. He is the 7th person to die in ICE custody in Texas this year.

Watch AOC break down why ICE ‘should not exist’ New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez appeared at the More Perfect University’s fourth “Students vs. Billionaires” town hall, where she discussed the need to abolish the wasteful…

Perfect.

Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

Donald Trump is a crook. And he’s trying to steal American taxpayers blind. It will take the overwhelming turnout of American voters—who have eyes to see this theft—to stop this non-stop criminal operation.

NEW: Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar (D) pressed DHS to back its claim that nearly 16k noncitizens are registered to vote in the state. Aguilar said the agency failed to identify the people it flagged and disclose its data sources, warning this could jeopardize eligible voters.

Ken Paxton is heading back to the same courthouse where he was caught pocketing a $1,000 pen from a security checkpoint this time for his divorce trial. This is the man who is asking Texans for their vote for a Senate seat! #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/AtSGhW5QuTy6...

If the six million people who voted for Joe Biden in 2020 had BOTHERED TO SHOW UP AND VOTE FOR KAMALA HARRIS IN 2024, we would not be in this mess right now. So if you want to end this regime, here's an idea: Show up and vote.

They don’t need one big move to change everything. They just need enough “kicks in the teeth” that people start expecting less. Today was one of those moments. The real question is what happens next. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Trump has broken America's healthcare system. Over 25 million people in America have lost Medicaid. Over 68,000 Americans die each year due to lack of healthcare. Trump, " U.S. government must put military protection over funding for Medicaid, Medicare, and daycare", #HealthcareNotTrumpsWar

Chuck Schumer's two votes tonight in favor of bombs and bulldozers to Israel is yet another reason Senate Democrats must vote to remove him as leader post the midterms.

Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater. This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning. Never doubt your power to change the system.

I fully support this.

The Founding Fathers knew a king-like tyrant would one day try to rule as personal dictator and use presidential powers to live above the law. But they never foresaw a branch of government abdicating oath for complicity and grift, or algorithmic media producing a citizenry so manipulated by deceit.

Hegseth just fired the Army Chief Gen Randy George. Immediately. Gen George the most competent and experienced combat leaders I have ever encountered. Courage. Integrity. Takes care of soldiers. A government of gangsters.

Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones slammed the White House over an event where President Donald Trump was compared to Jesus Christ.

A viral clip posted to X on Thursday showed Florida Republican gubernatorial candidate James Fishback blowing up at a Black voter and telling him he should be "lynched" for asking about the allegations of inappropriate behavior with teenagers.

Firing Pam Bondi doesn’t change the sweetheart deal Ghislaine Maxwell got in exchange for saying she never saw Trump doing anything wrong. For all we know, there’s a pardon or a commutation in the works, too. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

reminder that the number one issue that the press covered in 2016, the one they told voters was THE MOST IMPORTANT thing in the election, was Hillary Clinton's compliance with Presidential Records Act record-keeping

What resonated with me today at my No Kings protest was a speaker who said: “You are here, youve come out to protest Donald Trump and the Republicans. Now get involved on a local or national level and please please please VOTE!”

Over eight million Americans took to the streets today, which makes No Kings 3 the biggest single day of protest in the history of our country. #NoKings

We’re happy to report the total count is now up to 8.1 million and still growing.

Marla’s got it Right! She’s never been to a No Kings event—listen to the words that motivated her to join the rally in Scottsdale, AZ. Don’t ever vote for Trump, just get him out of office. Our country is full of hatred—we need to unite against tyranny. 🔥 #NoKings2026 @coppercourier.com

I’m just going to say it plain: Donald Trump ruined lives, and MILLIONS of people in all 50 states hate what he’s doing to this country.

San Francisco Bay Area never disappoints!! #NoKings

An army of fans bent on broadening the white supremacist Nick Fuentes's audience are using social-media algorithms to amplify his message and to help him gain a following on the left, Amogh Dimri reports:

Nobody predicted frog costumes and choreography at the No Kings D.C. protest but here we are and honestly? We needed this. 🐸💃 Protestors dancing to “War — What Is It Good For?” reminds us that joy IS the resistance. You can’t crush a movement that knows how to dance. #NoKings2026

Philadelphia DA Krasner: "If you commit a crime, I prosecute you. No, the president cannot pardon you. If necessary, I will put you in a jail cell if you commit the same criminal homicide against unarmed, innocent people that you committed in Minneapolis."

Somebody is making a fortune on the war with inside information and it is grotesquely corrupt.

Florida really surprised us yesterday. Thank you to everyone who showed up and voted!

These are your hard-earned tax dollars NOT at work. While understaffed TSA agents are stretched thin, busting their asses FOR NO PAY, these ICE-holes are standing around, loitering, leering... and getting paid. Republicans are BLOCKING bills to pay TSA. Stop paying ICE, DAMMIT!

British Lawmaker Ed Davey Tells Parliament That Trump's Oil Announcements Look Likes Insider Trading: "This looks like corruption of the very worst kind"

“I was expecting an attack on climate science,” Dr. Marvel said. “What I was completely unprepared for was an attack on [all] science, because it is a means of finding out and telling the truth.”

I'm researching for a pod that is in part about the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) and damn, when you really pause & take time to appreciate the power & potential of the systems Biden put in place, and consider the way that they were unceremoniously & illegally crushed ... it's fucking heavy.

Trump is a cornered rat with no signs of the Strait reopening, and Iran keeps insisting there have been no talks despite his saying there are. At this point, Trump has resorted to wishful thinking and lies to keep the markets from tanking any further.

Exactly 5 minutes BEFORE Trump announced a 5-day delay in bombing Iranian power plants, someone purchased $1.5 billion worth of S&P futures in a single trade. Someone also sold $192 million in oil futures. Trump and/or his cronies are engaging in market manipulation and insider trading.

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash. ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to. The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty. Budgets are moral documents.
