💔🕯️russia has shattered so much in Ukraine. This video shows the children whose lives were taken. Today, they could have been laughing, growing, living their futures. We must remember them — and remember who did this. Russia is a terrorist state!

JUST IN: Kyiv is under russian drone attack again. This life is unbearable. No one should have to live like this—under constant threat, fear, and destruction. It’s not just difficult—it’s inhuman, and it should never be accepted as normal.

Mike Lawler promised not to cut Medicaid, then ripped health insurance away from 32,216 constituents. He promised to repeal the SALT cap then passed a weak fix. He pretends to be moderate but chooses billionaires over New Yorkers. Let’s make sure Mike never represents NY again.

Now we've graduated to political assassinations. What a country. Nice going GOP/maga*. (*sarcasm)

A former Minnesota House speaker and her spouse were killed and a state senator and his wife were wounded in targeted shootings early Saturday at their homes near Minneapolis, officials said.

“He’s not a strongman. He’s not even a leader. He’s a man throwing a tantrum because the world won’t revolve around him.” Trump’s allies are turning on him—Musk, Barrett, Powell—and he’s losing his grip. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/trumps-emp...

adamkinzinger.substack.comTrump's Empire of Control Is CrumblingEven his loyalists—Musk, Barrett, Powell—are breaking free. And he can't handle it.

One thing we can count on (See the last sentence.)

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Yes! Thank you Senator Booker!! 🇺🇲 👏👏👏👏👏

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

Can we stop saying Trump is doing this? He's not. He's a fucking imbecile who couldn't even name all 50 states. It's the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025. They came up with the idea. They're implementing it. They're the ones Dems should jail once we get back power.

It hurts their fragile egos because they know they could never do what this Courageous Patriot did, God rest his soul.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

AOC is not happy. Neither am I. 😡

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@aoc.bsky.social

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Keep sharing this because it is vital to understanding this moment. The timing of his entry into politics after this trip, the one position he’s held firm on (at odds with past presidents of both political parties) and the unraveling of the post-WW II world order. www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

politico.comThe Hidden History of Trump’s First Trip to MoscowIn 1987, a young real estate developer traveled to the Soviet Union. The KGB almost certainly made the trip happen.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Don't we have some patriotic hackers who can expose him? Turnabout is fair play...

Thanks to Elon Musk and DOGE, our adversaries now have access to sensitive information about one of our intelligence agencies. Elon Musk and DOGE staff should NOT have access to sensitive national security information. www.huffpost.com/entry/elon-m...

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

ICE officers were in unmarked vans on community college campuses in Northern Virginia today. They were reportedly knocking on doors of apartments off Rt 1 starting at 6am You have rights. You do NOT need to open the door without proof of a warrant. ACLU provided guidance, pls share. 👇

Today we honor what would’ve been Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s 96th birthday. 🖤 Dr. King was revolutionary who fought for justice, equality, and love when the world needed it most. His fight isn’t over—it's on us to keep pushing, keep resisting, and keep his dream alive.

He has my gratitude and appreciation for his efforts. 🇺🇲

Mr. Smith deserves praise from all Americans who believe in the rule of law. The country has been well-served by his hard work to assure our country's laws are followed, especially by those in the presidency.
