Pride events face budget shortfalls as US corporations pull support ahead of summer festivities After years of sponsoring LGBTQ+ Pride events around the country, some companies are pulling their financial support.

As we enter Pride month tomorrow it's important to remember that Pride is not sponsored by corporations, it's brought to you by the drag queens who stood up at Stonewall, and everyone who fights every day for equality. There were no corporate sponsors in 1969 and we don't need them now. #Pride 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

I think it is! Why don't we the people have the ability to petition for a presidential recall election?

Disagree. Rebuplicans are not pro-anything. They are opposed to freedom.

If you’re in line when the polls close, stay in line. You can still cast your ballot. Your vote matters.

Great news, folks!

Republicans have now quelled that rumor

By announcing they’re “only” going to cut $600 billion in benefits

So that way, you know, only 25,500 people will die instead of 34,000

New report details 100 ways Trump has hurt workers in his first 100 days A new Economic Policy Institute report identifies 100 ways Trump has hurt working people and the economy in the first 100 days of his administration. While not exhaustive, this list represents most of...

This tracks: In our new report "100 days, 100 Ways Trump has Hurt Workers," we had to cut the list *down* to get it to 100.

For the record, we would have included positive actions if there were any—but there is only harm. A lot of it. Already.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda.

This is how we do it folks!

California flag, with text reading: “California has surpassed Japan as the fourth-largest economy.” Below, a caption adds: “The world’s three largest economies remain the United States, China, and Germany. However, California’s economy is reportedly growing at a faster rate than any of the top three.” LINK TO ARTICLE IN THREAD

Not only is California the 4th largest economy in the world—it’s growing faster than any of the top three: U.S., China, and Germany.

Red state Republicans love to hate us… but they sure don’t mind cashing the checks.

my endorsement for any democratic presidential candidate who promises to send the entire DOGE team to prison

Donald Trump is going after small donor fundraising platforms that support progressive candidates, because he knows that while he might have the billionaires, we have the people on our side.

Concentration camps by Hitler, in Poland; by Trump, in El Salvador

If you don’t know by now, it’s not immigrants stealing Americans’ Social Security, healthcare, retirement funds…it’s Trump’s Republicans. Please take action whether protesting in the streets, writing your Senator/Rep., putting up anti-fascism signs. Be visible and oppose fascism #Voices4Victory
