The transformation is happening before our eyes.
The fight goes on… 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Thank you to the men and women who protested today..you are all ROCK STARS! time.com/7313755/labo...
The victim was identified as Keontae. He managed to escape and called his mom from a cornfield an hour away. Thankfully, he did not suffer serious physical injuries, but local leaders say the emotional scars are already heavy—mistrust, fear, and trauma. 4/4 www.wkow.com/news/top-sto...
Local news: If you watch it through, it sounds like the police are referring to this as a “fight.” This wasn’t a fight. It was a race-based attack. On August 16, 2025, a 14 YO Black teen from Platteville, Wisconsin, was attacked by white teens at a party in the town of Pulaski, Iowa County. 3/4
Video shows white teens punching him while yelling racial slurs like “F*** that n up” and “kill that n.”At one point, they shoved him against a meat grinder, then slammed him to the ground and kept beating him. This is not “kids being kids.” This is racial violence in 2025, in Wisconsin. 2/4
The only national emergency is the White House bearing a striking similarity to A Weekend at Bernie's and the media just acting like everything is fine.
Oh! But he's not trying to corrupt the elections...
Happy Labor Day! Trump’s record? The most anti-worker, anti-union presidency in modern history.
Trump and Dr. Oz want AI to decide which Medicare patients get care—and they're giving AI companies a profit-incentive to deny coverage. Everything about this is sick and wrong. Tell Congress to intervene NOW:
He looks gravely ill physically and mentally. Lost. I've seen people with dementia and he has that loose-jawed, empty stare. It feels like the White House has become Weekend at Bernie's. Hiding everything that they spent years attacking Biden for.
I had a gash on my nose on time that was similar after I passed out due to a medical issue and smacked a doorway on my way down. His issues are escalating for sure!!
California VOTE YES ON PROP 50 This must be done
Prop 50 is about defending democracy. Republicans already stole seats in Texas without voters having any say. California is doing it differently: we get a one-time shot to fight back, then it reverts to our independent redistricting commission.
Not today, Satan‼️ Got this garbage in the mail a few days ago. Republicans trying to trick California voters into voting NO on Prop 50. Suddenly they care about “democracy”? Please. Vote YES on Prop 50. Don’t let the cheaters write the rules.
Kräken's post inspired me to make a meme. Save & share because it should be seen broadly & made into bumper stickers, bridge signs & flyers. ICE is a fascist Gestapo-like secret police force with poorly trained goons that violate our rights & use maximum force to unconstitutionally abduct people.
'Existential dread': Trump renews health concerns with 'very weird' email about 'heaven' www.rawstory.com/trump-weird-...
We rarely go out in A2 anymore. Not because of the unhoused, but because of growing urban canyons of high rise luxury condos, overpriced parking, & worsening traffic. It's no shock that homelessness has increased 77% in Ann Arbor. It's become a city for the privileged. share.google/kM2RxTMl1vQL...
Successful day collecting signatures for @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social to be on the Michigan primary ballot to become our US Senator
T wants to revoke a forest protection rule. An expert says some hidden agenda seems to be at play. My guess is that T wants to develop federal forest land for his personal enrichment. There’s a link for the public to comment and there’s a SHORT time to comment insideclimatenews.org/news/3008202...
THIS is what the five time draft dodger is doing to veteran's healthcare.... #DefendVeteransBenefits Trump is a mob boss. A convicted felon. Lock him up.
I guess that's a kinder alternative to heads on pikes, which is my current preference.

Republicans always cracking down on the real criminals: protesters. #whatconstitution #flipMIhouse
Add this to the list of dangerous incompetence by the Trump admin apple.news/Ajxpo5cdLRIa...
Northern MI peeps - tomorrow in Petoskey. 5-7pm!!!
Donald Trump can't win the 2026 midterms fair and square - so he's trying to cheat by calling up his cronies in red states and asking for seats. California: YOU have the power to stop him. Vote YES on Prop 50 to defend fair elections and STOP Trump's election rigging.
House Republicans claim they prioritize public safety, but their budget defunds police. You can't have it both ways — cutting safety while claiming to protect it — hypocrisy at its finest, y'all.
That photo is damning. This is the man so many fear? He looks weak and pathetic. If it was anyone else I'd feel sorry for him. Hate and greed and evil have taken a toll.
TRUMP just now: “NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE” Are you guys buying this? Because I’m not. His account has posted over a dozen times in the last hour. Someone’s overcompensating for him. What are they hiding? We deserve proof of health, not just a grainy photo of a man looking like a stroke victim.
I'm so done with this regime. 😥

Over 300 MILLION American citizen's files stolen by DOGE. Why can't 1 person with access steal the EPSTEIN Files? #LEAKtheEPSTEIN_Files
Yet they are building one of their migrant prison camps here in #Michigan like we don't know. I believe it's somewhere like Ironwood, where there was another prison I've heard
Trump is wrong—morally, ethically, legally. State rep. @emilydievendorf.bsky.social says silence isn’t an option. Hear our full interview with Rep. Dievendorf at PartyOnThePeninsulas.com
This is inhumane treatment. “No sleep, snacks only, no toothbrush. I didn’t brush my teeth for 13 days,” he said. “I was worried that I’m going to die.”
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you, Chicago! No one should comply with Trump's goon squads.
📌 City department of law are directed to pursue every legal mechanism, to resist unconstitutional efforts & hold them accountable 📌 Demands Trump stand down from deploying the military in Chicago 📌 Chicago PD not to wear masks or collaborate with ICE on patrols, arrests, or immigration enforcement
I stand with Chicago. I stand with Mayor Johnson. 🚨 NEW: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson just signed an executive order to resist Trump’s federal invasion and occupation of the city. Details in 🧵
Protecting predators isn’t justice. Hearing and believing the victims is. 💥 RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES 💥
These "brave" ICE recruits are going for easy bounties by hunting down good people, documented or otherwise, here just doing the hard work no American is willing to do. Go after dangerous criminals or MS13 gangs? Hell no! (Too dangerous!) It's never been about crime. It's always been about color.
Ice is racial profiling!! It’s not about deporting illegal Im migrants it’s about hitting numbers! For that Border Barbi and Himmler Homan need to be taken down several notches!!
They don’t care if you have papers or not. What they care about is whether you look like an immigrant from south of the border.
The media needs to stop calling this an “immigration crackdown.” That’s not what Trump’s doing. He’s using the military and ICE to invade cities and occupy them. Trump is itching for a fight, and he wants it with blue-city mayors and blue-state governors. The good news: they’re not backing down.

There are many good, smart people in Iowa and many are not happy with the way things are going. They're fighting against Republicans who've stacked the deck in favor of fascists. They used to be a reliably purple or blue state. Not all white Americans are monsters.
People might tell you it was Joni Ernst's complete lack of empathy which is forcing her to resign-after she infamously told Iowans "we all are going to die" Or that it was her hypocrisy in voting to confirm Pete Hegseth The reality is, she's terrified of facing a challenge from Democrat Josh Turek
Here is an easy way to take action NOW to support Hmong community leader Lue Yang. We are supporting his application for a pardon for his 3-decades old, expunged conviction, in order to stop his deportation. Time is of the essence. Please help #BringLueHome secure.everyaction.com/RLOSTb0l4Emv...
House Dems believe in fighting for the rights of all women. Based on the budget House Republicans passed this week, they don't. We have made progress in supporting, uplifting & ensuring that women across the state can thrive, but there is still much work to be done.
Rural hospitals are already on a knife's edge. Trump's billionaires-first budget is going to push many of them out of business. apnews.com/article/rura...
Anyone who tells you that we should scrap certain types of energy because it's “woke” doesn't give a crap about your costs.

So happy to see you go for this seat! 👏🏻👏🏻

Take action to #BringLueHome and stop his deportation by ICE. We are urging Governor Whitmer to pardon Hmong community leader Lue Yang's 3 decades old conviction so he can stay in Michigan with his family. Click here >> bit.ly/BringLueHome #keepfamiliestogether #BringLueHome #momsky
Thankfully, Michigan CD4 and CD7 have several absolutely incredible Democrats vying to take on the lazy Trump-worshipping cowards Huizenga and Barrett. We CAN flip these 2 seats AND CD10 ... without any redistricting, just the hard work of MDP and grassroots partners!
The Solar for All project was on track to lower costs for thousands of Michigan households, reduce strain on the grid, and make our air cleaner for everyone. Our Democrats in Washington are standing up for our state. michiganadvance.com/2025/08/29/s...
“Tom Barrett and Bill Huizenga betrayed their constituents when they voted to slash Medicaid and rip away health care from families, all to give another handout to the richest of the rich.” - @curtisherteljr.bsky.social
Your Congresswoman should stand and look at you like she looks at Trump. Smiling. Devoted. Dutiful. Instead, Congressmen from South Carolina and Louisiana are going to give their time and their ears to Michigan CD9 residents who have been abandoned by Lisa McClain (R-Trump's Rump)
Join the Michigan Democratic Party and Oakland County Democratic Party for a Town Hall Friday, September 5th, with Congressman Jim Clyburn (South Carolina, District 6) and Congressman Troy Carter (Louisiana, District 2). Reserve your spot here: michigandems.com/CD9-TownHall
podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... You cannot now trust the #CDC. It’s now Trump’s CDC where decisions on public health will not be influenced by science or data but by political ideology & data manipulation or no data at all. This is the message from the CDC’s vaccine chief who resigned this week.
I'm seeing cracks in the cult in Michigan. Trump signs and roadside shrines are vaporizing and I know some supporters who are very ANGRY! It will take some a while to admit their mistake.
Yep, inflation’s on the rise again. Must be all that ‘winning’ we were promised. I’m definitely feeling it in my wallet. Are you?
The power of voodoo dolls! ♥️😏🔪 #Pinks #PhonyJoni #GoodRiddance

Make America Great Again... one retiring GOP coward at a time. Best news I've had all week!
What a shame. LMAO Good riddance from this Iowan to Joni Ernst! 👋🏼 iowacapitaldispatch.com/2025/08/13/s...
The phenomenon of Indiana having Republican political control despite a significant number of Democratic voters is primarily explained by partisan gerrymandering and the strategic "packing" of districts. 🤬 The Republican party has drawn maps to erase Black & Brown voters! We must fight back!
Michigan House Republicans are following the Trump playbook: brutal cuts for things working people count on, like schools, public safety and public health. All so they can push a ridiculous, extreme political agenda. michiganadvance.com/2025/08/28/m...

This week, I met with apprentices at UA Local 174 Plumbers & Pipefitters in Coopersville. I wanted to hear from them - what they think about our politics, about government, about the state of our country.
That's the only suggestion RFK Jr. has ever offered that has the possibility of being a net improvement in American lives and life expectancy.
Thanks to leadership from Gov. Whitmer and Dems in Lansing, we're ahead of schedule on our goal to build 75,000 affordable homes—and now we're raising the goal to 115,000! That's what happens when leaders focus on real solutions. www.mlive.com/news/2025/08...
The House Republican budget would mean: Hospitals closing Kids going hungry in school Police off the streets Sick moms and babies Polluted water and air In other words, Republican priorities! #mileg
Republican House Leadership wants to slash funding to necessary programs from food assistance to maternal and infant health, to public safety. This will cut critical funding that Michiganders rely on and does not reflect my values and the values of our communities.
OK2SAY gives Michiganders a safe and confidential way to share concerns about their safety and the safety of others. whtc.com/2025/08/29/8...
Every day, in hospitals and doctor’s offices and clinics and in homes, nurses are there for us. That’s why I’m so grateful for the endorsement of Nurses for America – and so determined to stand with them against attacks on our healthcare system, and to build one worthy of their strength and care.
With families facing the pinch of higher prices and higher federal taxes on back-to-school supplies, I introduced legislation to create a state sales tax holiday for back-to-school expenses. senatedems.com/irwin/2025/0... SBs 498-499 (legislature.mi.gov/Bills/Bill?O...) for the full text.
It's reprehensible. I never knew until today. How effed up is that?
🧵 by Stephanie Chang. Holy fucking hell. I had no idea about the fact those who are suffering the abuse have to pay for the PPO to be served. That needs to change and change quickly. @carlquintanilla.bsky.social @distillsocial.bsky.social @charlesgaba.com @msnbc.com
Trump’s elevation of conspiracy theorist Heather Honey, who peddled baseless claims like “205,000 more votes than voters” in Pennsylvania that he repeated on January 6, to the newly created position of Deputy Assistant Secretary for “Election Integrity” at DHS is not just reckless, it’s dangerous.
I found this big box of little Johnsons in Sutton's Bay last weekend. Should've bought some to write on and leave around on my travels. Pico Shroomiez for Taco Trump!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I missed that Joni Ernst is quitting! Hot damn, one big step toward Making America Great Again!
Collected coins and considered using a “Coinstar” to get enough cash to buy some food as some companies frown on all coins for a purchase? And you know you are going to lose a portion of your money to “pay” for that convenience?
How many here have either had to OR know someone who has had to go home at the end of a shift, wash the uniform out in the sink, and go back to work the next morning? Used an iron dry those work clothes? Had a credit card company tell you to go sell your plasma to make a minimum payment?
