This meme was a lot funnier before transitioning. 😅...😑 #GirlSkin #SkincareRoutine

It is now my mission to flip these seats and take back the house. You can help defeat them, too.

Attention CD-40 voters! Young Kim (R) is voting against your interest again. #CD40 #RepYoungKim

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Mr. President, you love playing the schoolyard bully but, at age 79, it’s time to cut it out. It’s one thing to steal one kid’s lunch money, but your bill STEALS LUNCH MONEY FROM MILLIONS OF KIDS. Now, that’s real ugly.

Some people are working on gathering at the Capitol steps to show support for Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York. If you can’t be there in person, you can still show your support from wherever you are.

Sending strength to Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York. Keep speaking the galaxy is watching!

If you're just joining, Rep Jeffries has been using his "magic minute" to speak for the last 3.5 hrs to delay the vote. The House has far fewer mechanisms to delay the process than the Senate. You can still call your Reps this morning, they haven't voted yet, we don't know how long Jeffries will go.

Thanks @americanair.bsky.social

Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York has now passed the four-hour mark in his floor speech. Keep going, we’re with you!

Thank you to you, the people! Your fight is showing up! You’ve raised your voices & concerns to the extent that some members have decided to listen to you! Keep learning, educating, & speaking, AND WE WILL ALL come out better & stronger!

We need to throw the GOP out. They’ve just handed us the playbook.

Update from the Capitol.

For the sake of women's health and so much more, kill this bill. Capitol switchboard: (202) 224-3121

This is fucking awesome

Hmmmm, so she is fully able to physically articulate the word "no" in this interview but somehow could not choke the word out when it was important and instead chose to throw the rest of the country under the bus. Got it.

This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Bluesky’s limits)

Not every R who voted for the cruelest bill in modern times will be on the ballot in 2026 but you can vote against everyone who is. Every damn one.

Dr. Coni: One patient had been receiving treatment with eye drops, but then I didn’t see her for months.. I wondered what had happened to her. When she finally returned, she told me she had lost her Medicaid coverage and couldn’t afford her drops. As a result, she had gone blind in one eye.

Just remember. As unpopular as this Bill is, the GOP stopped caring about the popular vote over 25 years ago. They have been playing the courts and the electoral process for a quarter century and Dem politicians still haven’t come to understand that. They keep acting like it’s 1990 or something.

THANK YOU #oliviarodrigo #glastonbury

The votes are slowing down. They don’t have a bill. Still issues with Parl. Still disagreeing in caucus. Still fighting with House. Still no final language.

It's premeditated evil

We’ve got 2 no’s on the Murder Bill. We need 2 more to stop it permanently. Keep calling‼️ Order ur Reps & Senators to Vote No‼️ This our government not there’s‼️ #BlueCrew #Democrats #TrueBlue #FuckTrump #Gverse #Resist #RedCrew

I worked at Planned Parenthood. They diagnose cancers while still treatable. They help women decide what birth control works for them. They help those working through mental health challenges.   Defunding them just harms people who already struggle to find places to get care.

🚨The GOP provision to DEFUND Planned Parenthood is staying in the Big Ugly bill. Clinics will shutter. Women will lose access to cancer screenings, birth control, and basic care. I will be forcing a vote to try to strip it out. Fight like hell. We need to kill this bill.

Today, Trump dropped the lawsuit against Iowa pollster Ann Selzer and the Des Moines Register: thehill.com/regulation/c... This seems like a great time to remind everyone that the ETA analyzed the Iowa 2024 election results and our analysis identified patterns consistent with vote manipulation.

The budget bill contains tens of billions to fund an army of 10,000 more ICE agents. This is a red alert moment for our democracy.

This sentence, typed in her dissent, should scare the living fuck out of everyone in this country. "This Supreme Court is an existential threat to the rule of law." – Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

‘the government won’t protect you’ the perfect fucking title of this shitty horrible eye opening chapter i hope this fundamentally changes our national character making us absolutely intolerant against right wing bullshit

For every millionaire household that would get a tax break from Republicans’ big, ugly bill, 19 Americans would be stripped of their health coverage. Their priorities couldn’t be clearer. We must stop this devastating bill.

More than that- He was strip searched He was shoved around He was denied entry His private communications were examined Say again- Land of the FREE???? Home of the brave??🤣🤣🤣

Friends in NYC are telling me that it's hot as hell, sweltering, feeling like a sauna, but that hasn't stopped New Yorkers from coming out in droves to vote for Mamdani. I really hope he can pull this off.

It sure is a mystery why high-profile Trump supporters want New York Dems to vote for Andrew Cuomo (it is not a mystery. He will not threaten their power or interests. He is just like Trump. Do not rank Cuomo)

When Democrats retake power, there must be court reform. I refuse to live in a six-person monarchy and I won't vote for politicians who accept the Roberts' Court's lawlessness. The Court must be curbed.

If Cuomo actually cared about the City, he’d drop out.

We have gone from the margin of error to the margin of effort. On the day before the election, we stand on the verge of toppling a political dynasty and winning a city we can afford. But we can only do it with you. zohranfornyc.com/gotv

You are talking rubbish. Israel and the US have been the Middle East’s greatest source of death & terror. This is Iraq all over again.

Ok, it's morning, and we have a bit clearer idea how things have played out, and what comes next regarding Iran. Here's my BLUF: the US has succeeded in delaying Iran's nuclear program by a year or two, but they will reconstitute, and become more determined to acquire a nuclear weapon. 1/n

Yep. But he's dark skinned and racism is the sole consistent policy of this administration.

They want us in wars, factories, on the streets. Anything to prevent us from getting close to what they’re hoarding for themselves.
