Stand with Zelensky and against Putin. Stand with Pope Leo XIV and against ICE. Stand with No Kings and against Meta. Stand with the people and against the oligarchs. Stand with liberal democracy and against Trump.

Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has passed away at the age of 84. My thoughts are with his family. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

"Conversion therapy" is a polite name for something that isn’t conversion and isn’t therapy. It’s abuse.

Re: Day laborers at Home Depot and DHS raids On the one hand, you have folks looking for work to actually build things to support their families. On the other hand, you have guys doing cosplay while destroying others’ lives. Makers vs Takers, you might say.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

Wow what they won’t do for this disgusting cult! We have to take our country back. We can’t let these freaks win.

Well there you go. They have made the transition to "well...maybe some kinds of pedophelia is good!"

We should all be disgusted by the flood of anti-Muslim remarks spewed in the aftermath of Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the NYC mayoral primary — some blatant, others latent. Shame on the members of Congress who have engaged in such bigotry and anyone who doesn’t challenge it.

axios.comAttacks on Muslims flood mainstream after Mamdani winOpenly racist rhetoric has become normalized at the highest levels of American politics.

They really are ramping up to go after more Americans. Going after immigrants was just the beginning!

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.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

No Kings Day was one of the largest days of protest in US history. From deep red small towns to our largest cities, millions of people turned out to make it clear that the American people will not bow to fascism. #NoKings

Main stream media is dead! They are complicit for their own profit.

There it is. Elon Musk publicly admitting that he bought the 2024 election.

Imagine all of our ancestors who came here and worked those factory jobs. Just so their children could go to college and have a better life. That is the American dream not this.

Chris Hayes@chrislhayes.bsky.social

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

Janet Mills becoming more popular in Maine after very publicly defending the trans community is a big fuck you to all those Democrats who said we had to abandon them.

Sluggo21 reposted

Let me say this again: If a president can illegally deport someone, conspire with that country’s leader to abandon them to human rights abuses, and face no consequences, we are in a hellish authoritarian moment. What a fucking evil, illiberal government this is.

It's striking how much Trumpists hate what's made the United States great: immigration, trade, medical and scientific research, the rule of law, an enlightened patriotism, a willingness and ability to correct past injustices. At the end of the day, Trumpism is Third Worldism.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

“Trump’s tariffs wouldn’t be possible without extraordinary abuse of power on his part. The national emergency rationale is likely illegal. The lawlessness and the economic havoc are the same story… Constraints on dictatorial abuses of power facilitate economic prosperity.” @gregsargent.bsky.social

newrepublic.comObama’s Blistering New Takedown of Trump Gives Dems a Way ForwardIn an appearance on Thursday, the former president laid out the connection between Trump’s lawlessness and—yes—the price of eggs. Will other Democrats follow?
