Last Thursday, Trump signed a executive order designed to strip away collective-bargaining rights from federal employees under the flimsy excuse of “national security.” But... Read more: bit.ly/4mJxvVm Join us and become a guardrail! #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks
The Epstein saga lays bare the playbook: right-wing media, GOP politicians & MAGA propagandists colluding to hide heinous acts, divert attention and protect the powerful. It’s what they do on EVERY issue. If your eyes are open, you can't miss it — unless you are willingly looking the other way.

CNN, MSNBC, and Newsmax are currently covering the Epstein survivors press conference on the Hill. Fox News and NewsNation are not.
Guess which network is ignoring the survivors? Fox isn’t news.
‼️‼️
There is a rally happening now at the Capitol with twelve Epstein survivors! This is in preparation for the press conference at 10:30 this morning!! Release the Epstein files and prosecute the perpetrators!!

@govpritzker.illinois.gov has a #CupOfJoe for our felon in chief. It contains a question that every American should be asking. When did it become normal that a state should call the president & BEG for anything? Especially when it’s unwanted? Bring sanity back to the WH.
Trump tried to traffic 600 young children being held in the custody of the Office of Refuge Resettlement Sunday morning, some already on planes to be sent to Guatemala. Thank God advocates reached a Judge who ordered the children returned to safety. The Trump administration is full of monsters!
This is unbelievable. Reminder the Virginia Governors race is this year. Make sure to get out and vote for @abigailspanberger.com GOP campaigning in a government vehicle.
Warm up your calling machine!!
It's really worth a call to your rep about this. They really do want to release the files, but Trump is threatening them if they do. However, for once MAGA is on the right side of this issue, so GOP reps are caught between Trump and their base.
It is the ultimate riddle of every Trump voter.
And yet Nancy supports and voted for a pedophile/rapist to be President. And yet Nancy mocked E. Jean Carroll. #SheShed
I loved him as Kicking Bird.
Trump's advisers, especially Stephen Miller, are calling US citizens and other people inside the United States terrorists for either criticizing Israel, Trump, Musk and other Bil$; or holding opposing political identities. The term terrorist when applied to civilians is a precursor to state murder.
I had a busy summer, but there’s always time for dear leader.
SAVE THE DATE! October 18 is the next national day of action! Map launches next week! Let's make this the BIGGEST PROTEST IN AMERICAN HISTORY! LFG!!!!!
Fox News needs to be sued into oblivion.
And Trump and his stooges laughed and smiled while replaying the video for the press. Making the decision to use military force to kill people should be the most difficult thing a president does. These guys acted like it was a game. Disgusting. 🤮
I think they were high from watching old episodes of Miami Vice

Trump murdered 11 civilians, whether they were involved in organized crime or not, doesn't take away their human rights. Trump murdered those people and released the video to boast about it. It's not law enforcement or legal military action, it is simply premeditated murder.
This is how it's done. Come prepared. Interrupt them immediately when they lie. Confront them with the science. Show them the video. When they say anything that isn't true – call them out. Don't back down.
In another blow for the Fox News host-turned-U.S. Attorney for D.C., a grand jury has refused to indict Nathalie Jones, 50, who had allegedly branded the president as a “Nazi” and made threatening comments against him on social media. #Pinks www.thedailybeast.com/major-new-bl...

#ProudBlue #Resist #Protest The turnout at The Villages was quite high - this resident seemed surprised. Why? It’s likely many residents accept services from the government that will soon be cut. That means less extra money. Don’t forget R’s ended the $2000 cap on medications for seniors.

More distraction from the Trump Regime. But the military flyover tomorrow during the Epstein Victims Press Event may backfire on the Regime. Many will see it as a salute to the brave victims of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein who are bravely coming forward to tell the truth #ProudBlue

Bear in mind that the general education level in Red states tends to be lower, so a lot of Americans would just go "wow" without realizing how absurd this is. #ProudBlue
A step forward. It remains to be seen how much they actually get, how redacted it is, and how much will actually get published. #ProudBlue
#ProudBlue They said it struck a drug vessel. I don’t believe anything this regime says. I believe they are trying to start shit to suspend our elections. I completely believe that is what they are doing.
Thomas Massie said Mike Johnson is actively blocking the release of the Trump Epstein files and trying to block his discharge petition for their release Of course Johnson is blocking the release. Protecting Trump is Johnsons full time job. Mike Johnson works for Trump not the U.S. #ProudBlue
Military judges may not be qualified. They must be an Administrative Law Judge. To be an ALJ, one needs a JD & relevant legal experience, pass a rigorous selection process & complete a training program, then pass a written examination and an oral exam. Immigration itself is a specialty. #ProudBlue
Super Bowl flyovers cost American taxpayers about $80,000 for gas and operational expenses. That's a lot of $$ just for a brief distraction from the Epstein victims. I guess Trump hopes the noise will drown them out. #ProudBlue
It's these little victories that add up to keeping our rights despite Trump's autocratic attacks. But in today's climate, lower court findings like this risk turnover from the MAGA 6 Supremes. #ProudBlue

Trump & Republicans ran on lowering prices on day ONE. Sounded impossible, but they were trusted to at least try. Along comes Trump’s tariffs - a double tax on Americans no one wanted. Now, prices are now SKYROCKETING and Republicans are running from constituents. #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #Pinks
