Spending six months in jail because your parents can’t come up with bail is not what justice is supposed to be.
Still fighting the good fight.

Spending six months in jail because your parents can’t come up with bail is not what justice is supposed to be.
Cash bail creates a two-tiered system of justice where the wealthy can buy their way out of jail. Cashless bail lets judges detain people based on flight risk and community threat, rather than financial means, and does not raise crime rates. Don't fall for Trump's lies.
Masked immigration raids don’t protect us. They hide abuse and strip away our dignity. Stand with me in demanding transparency and accountability by adding your name to this petition.
Yes and yes.
Are they barrels filled with crackers or are they barrels made or for use by crackers?
America first is America alone. We are antagonizing the countries that once were our most reliable allies.
America is stronger when our allies and partners know they can rely on us. When we invest in their security, we’re making America more secure. When we invest in their economies, we’re building jobs and opportunities in America. 1/2

I love Ring Dings. But once I eat it, I don’t have it anymore. Same goes for elections, Mr. Trump — you can’t have your cake and eat it too. 🍰 #PaulaPoundstone #ComedyReels #PoliticalSatire #Trump #Cake #RingDings #Satire #StandUpComedy #CurrentEvents #ReelsHumor #gerrymandering
It’s about punishing the poor. Not housing the homeless.
Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
First, they came for John Bolton And I did speak out Because even though I'm not a nutty right-wing warmonger with a ridiculous mustache, I am an American who is horrified by a simple-minded tyrant using our Justice Department to avenge his petty, personal grudges.
So what happens when someone shoots and kills an ICE person not wearing a uniform in a stand your ground state? Are you supposed to be able to intuit who is kidnapping you and why?
Then you’re fine.
Get the dog outdoors before she has an accident inside.
This is the man who didn’t recognize his wife when shown a photo in a deposition. What do you expect?

Boston is a safe, welcoming, & vibrant city. This authoritarian Administration doesn't care about safety — they only care to divide, fear monger, & target vulnerable people. But we won't let them, and we'll always treat our neighbors with the humanity they deserve.

Dear Smithsonian.......send your historical records to Canada before they're destroyed.
Four items not to lose focus on: Epstein coverup ICE kidnappings Ukraine invasion Palestine genocide They all connect
Harryhausen was a genius.
I'm currently watching Jason and the Argonauts. These classic Harryhausen films are some of my favorite comfort movies. Better run, Hercules.👀
Solar farms are great places to raise sheep and maybe small cattle. They can shelter under the PV panels.
This is what we should be doing here. Instead we get republicans.
Tiny little guy with no heart.
Stephen Miller has definitely been stuffed in a locker several times during his high school days.
Libraries ROCK.
My 80-year-old aunt told me she "got tired of streaming" and is borrowing DVDs from her library again. So I checked it out and they have an amazing selection. Blu-rays too, from Criterion, Kino Lorber and other boutique labels. #PhysicalMedia #FilmSky

Russians have nothing to fight for. Ukraine is defending their home.
Thanks.
GREAT WORK, DONALD TRUMP, RAISING PRICES FOR ALL AMERICANS AND MAKING GOODS AND SERVICES MORE EXPENSIVE! IF NOT FOR YOUR NEGOTIATING SKILLS AND MANY BANKRUPTCIES, HOW WOULD WE ALL MANAGE?! THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK INCREASING THE COST OF LIVING SIR!
Equitable is better.
"Massachusetts has collected about $1.8 billion from a voter-approved surtax on the state's highest earners through the first nine months of the fiscal year." It's going to be used for education and transportation. See? Equitable taxation benefits everyone. www.wgbh.org/news/politic...
If Ukraine isn’t part of NATO or the EU, all future assurances are as hollow as those past assurances.

What about the rest of the country? Our high energy bills might keep us from vacationing in NV.
Proud to announce Nevada will be receiving $1.7+ million I helped secure to lower energy bills for hardworking families. High prices are squeezing Nevadans, and I’ll keep working to lower costs in any way I can.
The U.S. Department of Justice is threatening Victims of Crime Act funds to get states to assist with immigration enforcement. In New York, over $212 million in funds are at stake. I'm fighting back so New Yorkers can access the support they need.
Rules for thee …
Tiktok supposed to end in Sept - Ridiculous rules start in Sept saying you can't make fun of Orange Man/or say bad things about any of his administration may just be smart the smart thing to do to get out now since the spying begins before "M" starts with WH joining techcrunch.com/2025/08/20/t...
GN, Keep up the pressure.
I needed this.

Good morning.
With this I say goodnight Bluesky 🦋
Some people will believe anything. Even their own lies.
Good lord.

“My fellow Americans, I’m pleased to tell you today that I’ve signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.” ~ Reagan At least he understood who the enemy was.
Good luck explaining to your grandchildren why we crossed known climate tipping points. “Oh, we wanted to let big companies pollute for free,” won’t have much appeal.
Local woman wakes up, plans a radioactive shrimp, raw milk, and ivermectin brunch buffet for all the fucko buckos, makes oatmeal.
Do you have access to the EPSTEIN Files? Want to be inducted into the Whistleblower's Hall of Fame, be glorified in history as the Savior of Democracy & have an annual holiday named in your honor? All of this can be yours if you simply: #LeakTheEPSTEIN-Files!* *victim's names redacted, of course
There are some people who might not appreciate what an accomplishment this is. Some states set a very, very difficult bar exam because they don’t want just anyone to practice law in their state. California is one of them.
This was so beautifully accepted on Twitter, I thought I’d share here too
There were no reporters there. The people who were there were tools of Russian oligarchy.
There is a reason why the War Criminal Putin demanded no ceasefire. That allows him to continue bombing and murdering Ukrainians . The Felon has dishonored our country going along with this. He will use it to put pressure on Zelensky to surrender. Not one reporter brought this up.

I said the rich were tasteless. That’s why we will have to work at eating the rich.
Yeah, It's now the Throne room in the Goldhouse. The next occupant needs to remove all that crap, restore Jackie's rose garden and demolished the proposed ballroom that no one needs.
But he buys them anyway
I wonder why Vladimir Putin spends so much time and money trying to undermine the United States when Republicans will do it for free.
Mission accomplished!
Do we smell alright?
No one owns the Water. No one owns the Land. No one owns the sand. These are given by Our Mother. The Planet provides for Free. Only by the hands of the Greedy does the Earth require a Fee 🌺
Dear heaven, get rid of little miss “he learned his lesson”.

The Dems need to get behind him. AIPAC has them scared and retreating from real issues.
The Progressives will do just fine. We’re even seeing people take to people like Zohran - that’s more than enough.

I don’t know where you get these, but keep them coming. They are much appreciated in this household.

Yeah, that’s what we need, more rapist on the Internet.

Are you surprised? Texans voted for these people. No matter how Gerrymandered the state, people have to vote for this shit. They also voted to divert funds intended for flood warning equipment.
Jim Crow 2025.
Add in no requirement of face masks, kids in school, with no vaccines, and its a pandemic party
Honey, that’s every year!
Lucky you! I live in a small town. We have a hard time getting a good restaurant
To honor Zelensky, I'm ordering take out from Veselka, the East village Ukrainian restaurant. Latkes with sour cream and applesauce, and egg noodles!
Look up your senators look up your congressional representative. It only takes a minute to place a call. Congress needs to stop playing doormat to the administration.
The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121.
God, I love DC!

New ideas from a new perspective. I hope they are constructive and successful.
My name means “Servant Leader.” And while some folks may think it’s a liability–it’s actually an asset. When your name is Abdul, you learn to take nothing for granted.
