the USA is under attack from within.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but ICE-Gestapo killers aren’t at airports to help TSA, they are there to intimidate and terrorize and it’s also practice for what they plan to do at polling locations this November by order of the orange felon. This is what fascism looks like.

“Mind-blowing corruption”

7 years ago, we learned about Bob Mueller’s conclusions. Today, there are a lot of posts on social media claiming it was a farce, or worse, a fraud. But those posts are disinformation. Here is the actual information, with links for those who want to do a deep dive. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Amidst chaos, armed agents infiltrate our airports, a stark reminder of state-sanctioned oppression. This militarization of public spaces reveals the ugly truth: humanity is sacrificed for political theater.

There are 4 articles on front of NYT on meetings between Trump & Mohammed bin Salman: none of them mention hotel Saudi is gifting Trump in exchange for US military support that they reported on in 1 (completely isolated) article 4 days ago. 100s of articles normalizing Trump >> 1 isolated article.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

Why did not a single male reporter who were standing next to the president and the female reporter he called "piggy" say a word to the president about this and call him out then and there? Those who keep quiet in these moments are part of the problem.

Soft secession Legislation creates a Federal Tax Escrow Account in the state treasury. Instead of employers forwarding collected federal taxes to Washington, they send them to the state. The state holds the money in escrow. A legislative panel reviews federal spending for constitutional compliance.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

This is interesting — NFL teams WANT TO use Bluesky, but aren’t allowed to! The NFL, which has deals with X and Meta, told the New England Patriots to shut down their Bluesky account. Not okay, NFL.

want to vote out the people who have caved and given into MAGA nutjobs? people will lose ACA coverage or face massive hikes. gutless cowards. you cant overcome an authoritarian regime based on “their word” (which means absolutely nothing). what a sad, sad day. via @aaronparnas.bsky.social

Okay, Ezra is confirming that he's hearing D senators are actually plotting to cave to Trump and end the shutdown WITHOUT any extension of the ACA, just a promise of a vote later down the line. Call your senators, friends, NOW, and tell them NO DEAL without ACA funding! Find them here: reps.fyi

Last night, the Trump Administration sent a letter suggesting Wisconsin should return our FoodShare payments. My response ⬇️

You cannot (accurately!) yell "fire, fire, fire!" as you enter a home & then not break down doors & windows to get people out. Otherwise, your cries of alarm are untrue or you're not up to leading.

Ask him why so many air traffic controllers are retiring at once. Ask him if it has anything to do with Reagan firing 11K union strikers in 1981 and having to replace them all at once. Ask him how the mass firings this year will impact us the same way 40 years from now. Ask him, Jake.

I have so much contempt for Schumer but his defenders who insist that he’s actually a master tactician who’s working for us are arguably even more contemptible

NO! NO! NO! NO! CALL YOUR DEM REP'S AND TELL THEM DO NOT CAVE!!!!!! 1-202-224-3121 It's just a damn vote on healthcare which is nothing! We need an actual agreement and deal on the table! #Pinks www.rawstory.com/government-s...

#democrats caving now is absolutely pathetic. you’re playing into the “shutdown is democrats fault” narative. you NEED to hold out til they concede on the ACA. if not.. you’re weak and next tike anything you say will be treated as bullshit. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov

If this is the so-called 'deal,' then I will be a no. That’s not a deal. It’s an unconditional surrender that abandons the 24 million Americans whose health care premiums are about to double.

At this point, it’s utterly bonkers that any Democrat would trust any Republican to negotiate in good faith.

Federal workers are putting in 40 hours unpaid. Why aren’t Trump and the Republicans?

Asking anyone who's got energy to do so to call their Dem Senators and urge them not to back down on healthcare. 🙏 Your friends who are too sick to work to access healthcare are going to be really fucked otherwise. Being too sick to work means no paycheck to cover now-exorbitant marketplace plans.

bovino, border patrol, and other feds also used the fbi’s chicago field office to regroup after a busy morning of abductions and being chased through the streets by caravans of angry residents.

during their saturday morning terror spree, border patrol agents pointed weapons at bystanders, pepper sprayed a baby, + fired chemical munitions on a busy commercial street. both the feds + chicago police arrested residents who had come out to oppose the masked soldiers abducting their neighbors.

happening now: community members are gathering at the chicago fbi field office to demand ice and border patrol agents leave the city and stop terrorizing residents. yesterday, the fbi and other feds helped greg bovino and a caravan of border patrol agents ravage little village and cicero.

i seriously cannot believe democrats are going to cave on the ACA. it appears theyre going to re-open the government with no trade-offs. gutless.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Democrats continue to be weak. A “promise to vote on healthcare” means nothing when you’re dealing with incompetent liars. I don’t care if the shutdown lasts until next summer. Do NOT cave. Fucking fight for your constituents!

🚨 Married GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales allegedly had an affair with his senior aide, Regina Aviles — who was found dead after she supposedly doused herself in gasoline and set herself on fire, per The Daily Mail. Uvalde Police are blocking release of the 911 call, video & records. (Daily Mail)

The White House is being run by children! No offense to children, but they have an excuse.

It’s so fucked up. substack.com/@logicallyjc...

future grandchild: like shit, from an ass? me in 30 years: Swear to God. Then he demolished the White House

can anyone just decide to demolish the white house? seems CRAZY to me. #whitehouse #trump 🖕🏼

KARL: Why is the Defense Secretary afraid to interact with journalists who cover him? JOHNSON: I reject the premise KARL: The guy has only had 2 briefings and he basically forced the press out JOHNSON: I can't remember a Secretary of Defense who has been so transparent and out in the open

They’ve worked 20 days in 16 weeks and still pocket a full taxpayer-funded salary. The same people preaching “hard work” and “fiscal responsibility” can’t even clock in. Government by grifters, paid for by you. Keep protesting! We are the majority.
