No news organization should ever use the words "third term" without the word "unconstitutional" preceding it

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

2 insurrections, same President.

i don’t even know if crime is the right word for the illegal destruction of USAID. it is an autocratic power grab and a direct attack on the sovereignty of the american people

The way to have *avoided* all of this was on the ballot box.

The only way to fix it is at the ballot box.

Trump just paused all federal spending to our communities. Why? He needs to free up money to give corrupt billionaires and corporations tax cuts. Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress are cheering him on.

The golden age for the richest and the dark ages for working people.

One line of bullshit that Trump is getting away with: "Oh, they're just assessing programs, all new Admins do." Even ignoring that, no, they don't all do that, this is the Project 2025 Hit the Ground Running implementation. They've been "assessing programs" for two years.

This blatantly illegal move by the Trump Administration should have severe consequences. None of his remaining cabinet picks should receive a single Democratic vote until all is remedied and we can ensure this won’t happen again.

What about the bar memberships of all the attorneys signing off on these blatantly unconstitutional EOs and frivolous lawsuits?

This much power, across this many pillars of society, is without precedent.

Hey corporate media,

Thou shalt not spend thousands of hours on one CEO’s shooting and only one hour on a classroom of children.

Welcome, Commissioner!

Having a Latino leader like @repcasar.bsky.social helming the CPC at this juncture couldn’t be more opportune and needed!

Raskin, Wyden, Kiley Introduce Bipartisan Legislation Promoting Free Speech, Cracking Down on Frivolous “Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation”

Special interests use ‘SLAPP-suits’ to silence critics and stifle public participation. My legislation with Rep. Kiley and @wyden.senate.gov protects citizen activists from absurdly costly retaliation in court.

Is there a starter pack for Members of Congress?

People are leaving Twitter because it’s not fun anymore and no one is obligated to be on a platform they don’t enjoy.

It’s not rocket science.

Me gustan las navidades que sepan a Puerto Rico 🎶🇵🇷

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

i don’t use airbnb bc if i wanted to do chores i’d do them at my own house.

Is lack of moral character a requirement for nomination?

Donald Trump needs to release his tax returns.

Now more than ever.
