Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Yes! This includes against verbal bullying. It’s entirely too common for kids to be verbally bullied for YEARS and when they finally explode, guess who gets in trouble…..

STEWART: “I feel like I’m watching something so self-evidently inhumane and horrific and to be told I have to shut up because I risk the Jewish state by speaking out? I would say the opposite — they’re putting the likelihood of a surviving Jewish state much more at risk.”

The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 called for dismantling the NOAA, which provides warnings of natural disasters, such as the deadly floods in Texas. The irony is that Heritage wanted these cuts because it’s angry that NOAA helps prove the reality of climate change--the thing causing floods.

The first group of immigrants has arrived at a new “camp” deep in the Florida Everglades, where officials are openly describing it as “concentrating” certain people in one area. Have you seen the photos of the flooding? This entire site is a human rights violation.

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

Flashback Q: If you were president, would you declassify the Epstein files? Trump: “Yeah, I would. I guess I would. I think that less so because you know, you don’t know. You don’t want to affect people’s lives if it’s phony stuff in there” (June 2024) Now it all makes sense.

I love this!!

A government ban on Hungary’s Pride parade backfired Saturday as over 100,000 people marched through Budapest, far more than usual PM Viktor Orban warned people to stay away, threatening “clear legal consequences.” But the warnings only turned a modest event into a mass rally against his government

I wish that I could say that this was shocking

Monstrous: "They were crying in fear. One of the agents at one point lifted up his shirt, which displayed the gun that he was carrying....The 6-year-old boy was terrified to see the gun. He urinated on himself and wet all his clothing. No one offered him a change of clothing for many hours."

Do they really think they can scare us with the word “socialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets? I know what I’m scared of, and it’s not a socialist.

I’m choked up seeing this—it’s shameful. Iranian refugees got snatched by “immigration agents” dressed like bounty hunters in West LA’s Sawtelle neighborhood. We’re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?

Jeff Bezos is worth $230 billion and is reportedly spending $20 million on a three-day wedding in Venice while sailing around on his $500 million yacht. If he can afford to do that, he can afford a wealth tax and to pay Amazon workers a living wage. Hello?

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

This “big, ugly bill” is dangerous and will destroy rural health care. In Kentucky alone, 35 hospitals are under the threat of closing, stripping care from families, cutting jobs and crippling local economies. 1/2

A win! Thank you to everyone who spoke out! After facing bipartisan resistance, the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that Sen. Mike Lee’s proposal to sell off millions of acres of federal land cannot be included under reconciliation rules.

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

We need to start pushing back—legally If they’re masked, unmarked, and flashing Amazon gear, report it for what it is: an attempted kidnapping by law enforcement impersonators. 🎥 Record. 📍 Share location. 📞 Call the police. “ICE vest” is not an ID.

Like we said yesterday: speak out and you’re fired. The Trump administration has made it clear, if you report wrongdoing, you’ll be fired. A senior Justice Department official, Emil Bove III, told staff he was willing to ignore court orders to push Trump’s deportation agenda.

1. Donald is embarrassed by shoddy military birthday parade. 2. Donald's bill in Congress is wildly unpopular. 3. Donald's ICE kidnappings are wildly unpopular. 4. To distract, Donald bombs Iran. 5. This is wildly unpopular too. 6. So Donald declares ceasefire. 7. Iran/Israel ignore Donald.

SCHRIER: Have you ever treated measles? RFK JR: No SCHRIER: Well I have. Let me tell you how miserable these kids is. The great thing is there's a vaccine to prevent it ... they only work if you actually give them

Senate Parliamentarian appreciation day! She BLOCKED GOP plans to sell off public lands, gut environmental protections, & force oil drilling—these provisions now need 60 votes to pass & 4 Republicans said they’re voting no. This is momentum. Keep calling. Keep fighting. 🌲💪

Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. What's happened since? A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.
