Q: “Are you worried all this pushback could provoke Trump to follow-through with sending the National Guard?” MAYOR @brandon4chicago.bsky.social Johnson: “As a descendant of slaves, can you imagine if my ancestors had that same rationale?“

Bitch, what?
Gov. Newsom and Gov. Pritzker are being talked about everywhere right now because they publicly stood up to a bully Other Dems should take note
That one person in the zombie movie who doesn't tell the rest of the group they got bitten.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"
Come on.......🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
😭why are they so dumb?
I didn’t have an inappropriate relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and I knew nothing of his crimes. It’s all right here in this redacted transcript of an interview my lawyer conducted with an alleged perjurer right before she was moved to a nicer prison.
PREACH.
The only thing he is capable of leading is a bowel movement.
There needs to be a campaign where we can print out Epstein's face and wear it like a mask. Imagine if everywhere he went, he saw thousands of his dead best friend's face staring at him? RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
So, I see we have learned nothing. Awesome.
100% this!
Cool, it was all Democrats. Then release the f'ing files
A video arguing that women shouldn’t be able to vote was just shared by Trump’s Secretary of Defense, the guy in charge of our whole military. And Democratic Party leaders still can’t stand up to this administration?! Our rights are on the line and all our party leaders offer us is silence.
Remember when Vice President Harris bought a few quality cooking items at a French cookery store with her own money and legacy media melted down? J.D. Vance literally used the Army Corps of Engineers to manipulate a public waterway, so he’d have an easier time kayaking and it’s a blip on the radar.
I absolutely enjoyed it and will read it over and over
I’m not an expert but it seems as though instead of studying autocratic regimes like that of Orban of Hungary, Republicans should study other minority parties operating in democracies to see how they effectively participate in government without ripping their nations apart.
A name that doesn’t appear in a report requires no redaction.
Same but the alternative was worse. I voted for her to keep the other idiot out but she is disappointing.
You ever notice this kind of "just asking questions" sorta analysis always seems to land on asking everyone else to feel sorry for men who aren't laid and never about asking men who aren't getting laid to be less shittier and entitled assholes that women might find a bit more attractive?
If you're not getting laid, it's not the left's problem or the right's problem. It's no one else's problem. It's something you're gonna need to work on yourself. Conflating your sex/romance struggles with the conditions of our democracy is very weird.
Those movies are my guilty pleasure.
I remember when this happened.
He drove from Las Vegas to New York with an AR-15, which cannot be purchased in New York. This isn’t about New York. This is about Republicans persistently blocking common sense gun safety reform, including an assault weapons ban, that a super majority of Americans support.
No one even talks about how all these tariffs are illegal anymore
This! Miss me with this AOC bullshit
I am very scared of spiders and had no clue when I started the audiobook but it was so good! I'm glad I was able to get through it because what an absolutely superb story
On a day that the congress has decided to go on an early recess and take 6 weeks of paid leave it is important to remember that in the U.S there is no federal law that guarantees paid maternity leave or family leave. Just something to think about in case you need more things to think about today.
The Monster at the end of this book
Ah! I have the same one. That was my favorite book when I was a kid.
why does anyone care what Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod or James Carville have to say? mention any of them in an argument and I stop reading/listening
Fuuuuck.......this is so damn on point. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
He couldn't release them with the trial for Maxwell happening. The better question is why Trump isn't releasing them now.
Not a math whiz, but if it takes 1,000 FBI Agents to flag all mentions of your name in the Epstein File, that's a lot of mentions.
The Bove confirmation vote is larger than people are paying attention to. He wants to put this 44 year old goblin looking asshole on the Supreme Court bench, especially since Bove couldnt answer if trump should be able to serve a 3rd term. Call your senators!!!
I don't care if Clinton is in the Epstein files. I don't care if Obama or Biden are in the Epstein files. I don't care if any other Democrats are in the Epstein files. Because I'm not in a cult. I want accountability. It's that simple. Release the Epstein files.
Medical experts say the worst thing about chronic venous insufficiency is when you're in the Epstein files.
I've heard this too
Ooooh tough talk right before you cave as usual. 🥱
They've been ignoring rules. For years. Jesus, when are you guys going to get it together. You are completely unprepared for this.
You have inspired me!
damn
Republicans just unanimously voted to BLOCK the release of the Epstein files.
Wtf? Jesus Christ.
Notice how troops were sent to LA for political theater, but none were sent to Texas to help find the missing people who were swept away in the flood?
This makes me weep.😳🥹😢
STEP ONE: Reform the Democratic party with new leadership and make way for a new generation of leaders free from billionaire control. STEP TWO: Take America back from the fascists.

Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
And you're going to do what about it?
If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.
What he said....
How lovely ❤️
Oh cool, new insult just dropped
andrew cuomo won't see your insults but corrupt, serial sexual harassers who are trying to run cities they don't actually live in will
So Michael Bloomberg and Bill Clinton are rushing to the rescue of Creepy Cuomo to try to get him across the line. This me rolling my eyes at that. We all KNOW why Mike and Bill think that abusing one’s power to prey on women at work is not a big deal. Get real. That’s disgusting
We REALLY need to stop saying every new heinous act is a distraction. It isn't a distraction, it's another checked box off the list. Each checked box is not a distraction from the last checked box, that's just how the media plays it. It's a list, not a distraction. People need to understand that.
This is so amazing to witness. Unbelievable numbers. Great job. Look at the countries at the end. #USDemocracy

CENSURE MIKE LEE TOMORROW MORNING!!!!!!
Lovely day for a protest!
Made these today for no particular reason #nokings
If you’re undocumented, don’t march tomorrow. Stay home. Let the rest of us get this one. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼
When will they stop? Uh, I guess when you stop pretending everything is normal, voting for their bills and confirming their nominees?

You can like how Gavin is handling the federal invasion and very plainly see the 28,000 reasons he shouldn't be President. The hero worship is reminding me of how people talked about Giuliani after 9/11 and we all know how that went.
I still don’t understand why people can’t just come here from other countries & stay. Personally, the fraud, & waste is all the money spent adjudicating citizenship. Think of all the money we’d save & tax revenue that would generate. It’s like private health insurance companies. Like, whyyyy?

Republicans in Congress can stop this at any point. I don't give two shits about no Democratic leader or their messaging sucks. The GOP has the power to stop this. Start holding them accountable
The No Kings protest map will help you find a place to exercise your First Amendment rights this weekend. (It's also a pretty good argument against the Electoral College.) www.nokings.org
They are brave and I am grateful 🩵💙
Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.
She is my hero
Musk cannot be “turned”, “flipped”, “allied” with. He is a Nazi and he’s killed 300,000 people, mostly children. Anyone considering taking his political contributions or discussing allying with him has no moral compass nor should they be near power.
I can't believe any Democrat would THINK of allying with Elon Musk. I won't take money from the guy who does a Hitler salute. It's really that simple.
www.etsy.com/shop/TheLeft... Perfect Timing! 😁 My new shirt arrived
This isn’t hard or complicated. For people weighing in w/different versions of this theme: Musk isn’t a good guy, we forget nothing, he’s not on the team, never will be on the team. We don’t mind if this disgusting evil alliance comes apart. That doesn’t make us Team Elon. Next.
Agree!!
The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy but I still like seeing them fight

WATCH: @profgalloway.com on Elon Musk: “Too many of us excuse what is abhorrent behavior…. I think his legacy is going to be unnecessary death, disease and disability.” Piers Morgan: “Wow.”
I miss you but that is funny so I'll get over it
I don’t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldn’t be run like one. It’s a service—for the people.

A nation so sexist we chose the worst man over the best woman. Twice. And we will spend generations paying for it with our economy, our national security, people's lives, and the planet. #RemoveTrump #GOPBetrayedAmerica Call your reps 202-224-3121
Hell yeah 🔥🔥🔥 Hakeem Jeffries: “I don’t work for you, sir. I work for the American people.”
if dems want messaging help, stop telling people you're "fighting back." it sounds like you're being mugged. call off the podcaster search, take your ridiculous money pile and try opening some food banks and free clinics. hurricanes are coming and the feds have no plan. looks like an opening to me.
I know I sound ridiculous and extreme saying this, but this reconciliation bill deserves mass civil disobedience from every level of elected official in the country
