Thank you to everyone who has been inquiring about my hometown of Washington, DC and how we, the ppl, (and things) are here. As a student of history, the actions of this administration are not a surprise. That doesn't mean this isn't shocking. It is. It feels like there's a void in leadership. 1/2
As should every blue state… every single one!
In The Handmaid’s Tale, the Commanders preach purity but sneak off to brothels. It’s not fiction, it’s a mirror. The most repressed are often the most controlling. If they just let themselves enjoy life, maybe they wouldn’t burn the world trying to punish everyone else for enjoying it.

💯💯💯 Stop kowtowing to these fake religious zealots. They are not interested in living in a democracy.
In March 1990, they illustrated the lack of accessibility by staging the Capitol Crawl, in which people with disabilities pulled themselves up the 100 steps of the Capitol building. A few months later the House passed the ADA by unanimous voice vote and the Senate 76-6. /end
🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 I love that Rep Jasmine Crockett did what she always does - she brought the receipts. If Texas wants to redistrict, well, it’s time for Black and brown voters to get those 24 seats to match the population distribution. Let’s stop the GOP gerrymandering to win white votes!
Those sick fuckers. I'm so tired of (gestures wildly).
Congrats, Oklahoma Republicans! You now rank dead last in education under this guy’s leadership. This dude wants to put ‘Trump Bibles’ in all schools along with copies of the Ten Commandments in classrooms. Can someone remind me which of the commandments says: Thou shalt watch porn at work. THX
Of course. Anyone with any sense knew this about him from day one.
NEW bombshell allegations from the Texas Legislature today. The author of Texas’ abortion “trigger ban” has been accused by a former exotic dancer of paying for abortions. He has denied the claims and threatened to sue the outlet that ran them. More: thebarbedwire.com/2025/07/25/t...
@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "The only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God."
So true!
the reason to defend affirmative action wasn’t because racial preferences were perfect but to defend the principle that institutions ought to account for disparities, disadvantage and discrimination. unfortunately we have a large clique of dipshit pundits who could get fooled by a wallet inspector.

A visit to the Auschwitz Memorial is far more than a history lesson. It is a deeply personal experience that should inspire reflection on our individual moral responsibility for the world in which we live. Reservations of entry cards: visit.auschwitz.org

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?
Time to level this shit up, Everyone. Our assignment: ✅ ~12M people (3.5%) people on the streets regularly, peacefully protesting ✅ General strike—Shut. It. Down. They’re hiring more ICE agents and building more camps, quickly. Time to LEVEL UP our resistance. Let July 17 be only the start…

Trump's big, ugly betrayal hurts working families by taking food off the table, abandoning public education and eroding the social programs that support hardworking Americans.

On Independence Day, Marines are patrolling American streets, detaining civilians, & securing ICE raids. This isn’t national defense—it’s policing in uniform. Our troops didn’t sign up to police their own neighbors. ‘Making America Militarized Again’ erodes the very #BlueSky #MedSky #NewsSky
Keep reminding folks of this.

Absolutely. It is going to be killed by us or them. Not that it really matters at this point. The Congress is just a debating society at this point.
Our pressure is working. Stay strong — keep calling, texting, writing, and sharing. We MUST stop this bill, and we CAN.
CHARLAMAGNE: “It’s crazy to me that ‘socialism’ is such a dirty word, when all it is is trying close the gap between the rich and the poor and make sure everybody has access to basic necessities... That why I like when @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social uses ‘affordability’.”

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.
If you need a mask to enforce the law, you don’t deserve a badge. Federal agents are snatching people off the streets—faces covered, names hidden. This isn’t safety. It’s secrecy. It’s not America. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...
I’m a U.S. Army combat veteran! I did not spend time away from my family for the bullshit going on in this country! I took an oath to defend the constitution against enemies foreign and domestic! Right now the enemy is domestic sitting at the White House! We stand with immigrants!
Damn right!!!
all i want is to one day own a modest sized home in a walkable neighborhood and raise money for shelter animals. wear an outfit i like, walk to the grocery store, buy some nectarines, feed cats, and live in peace. just don't understand why achieving this is so hard
He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.
STORY TIME: ICE rolled up. The city of Bell, California said, “Not today!”
Let’s call a terrorist a terrorist.
Ted Cruz "hates communists" because Cuban President Fulgencio Batista, who was *not* a communist, imprisoned and tortured Cruz's father for helping Fidel Castro, who *was* a communist and who freed Cruz's father from the non-communist prison. Proving, once again, that Cruz speaks absolute rubbish.
If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.
The thing about the Khalil case is that it's very very good that he's free now but you can't have it take three months between "the government kidnaps you off the street for no basis reason whatsoever" and "a judge makes them let you go." You just can't.
Michael Pham fled Vietnam at the age of 13. He was named bishop of San Diego a month ago. Today, he stood watch at a courthouse: ICE agents were “standing there covered with masks as we walked toward the courtroom. Eventually the agents scattered and went away” timesofsandiego.com/life/2025/06...
If you’ve got a badge and a gun but think your actions are shameful enough to need a mask, you should quit.
Mystal: It all goes back to Dobbs. It tells everyone on that side that they’re open for business to take away, to smash, every civil right they don’t like. We’re living in the post-Dobbs era.. it’s going to take some time before the country has a moment of clarity about what’s really happened here.
If only we had warned folks before the election that the real plan wasn’t border security…it was mass deportation in the interior, federalizing the National Guard, ripping people out of homes, families, jobs, and schools. Oh wait…we did. This segment with the author of 2025 aired one year ago.
Seriously, they're the worst!

Damn, y'all. Russia just dunked on Scump's parade. I'm an Army veteran; but this makes us look weak as fuck. I mean, look at our troops. Their body language is very telling. They didn't want to be there. *sound up* #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Senator dared to question the Empire, directly, and was met with force. Stormtroopers didn’t hesitate. They grabbed him, cuffed him, dragged him away like a dissident, claiming he “failed to identify himself.” But everyone knew who he was. He was a Senator.
48th in education.
Sen. Alex Padilla: "If this is how this DHS responds to a senator with a question, I can only imagine what they're doing to farmers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country. We will hold this administration accountable."
This scene in Spokane captures so much about this moment. Hapless thugs in ski masks trying to intimidate people only to be met by the FURY of an outraged people. A jury of cell phones rebuking them. SHAME is our best weapon right now. PUBLIC OPINION still matters. Show up. Get loud. No Kings.
Good! About time!
It would do wonders for my sanity if the media would stop acting like RFK Jr is just someone with good motives but misguided, and instead transparently present him as someone actively trying to ensure the destruction of American public health and endangering millions.

Sen. Alex Padilla was just removed from Kristi Noem's press conference in Los Angeles (video: Bill Melugin/Fox News)
Yesterday, I met with a 12 year old boy in Oxnard, CA. His mom and dad have been fieldworkers for over 20 years. ICE agents snatched his parents from the fields and left this boy alone with no clue when he’ll see them again. A 6th grader.
