The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Crockett: You have a president who consistently is obsessing over two women of color that are members of the house, I don't know what black woman hurt him in his past, honey, but it is really taking him through it.

Canadians care about the world and we care about each other. So we’re going to fight climate change and build a stronger, more competitive economy – together.

Wow! That fun guy is nuts!

two shibas, one red and one black and tan, whirl their heads and necks back and forth so quickly that their features are just a round blur.

This is Non and Asa. We do not know which one went into turbo mode first. But we do know it is highly contagious. 14/10 for both (IG: asa.n.kuroshiba)

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Tiny corner of Canada. 🇨🇦

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

Paul Cézanne ~ House and Tree, 1873

Per CNN, the White House has just issued a two-word response to what may be the largest day of protest in US history—and those two words perfectly encapsulate why No Kings Day exists.

The response from would-be King Donald to outrage over his destruction of our traditions and norms is, "Who cares?"

It costs ~$70 to produce a year’s supply of insulin.

Yet, the average annual cost of insulin went from $2,864 in 2012 to $5,705 in 2016 to $18,000 in 2025. A 25,714% markup. That isn’t inflation or supply chain—It’s corporate greed.

Now—California will sell insulin for $11. Make this nationwide!

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.

If it’s not okay to be anti-fascism anymore, is it still okay to be pro-democracy? 🤔

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

"Conversion therapy" is a polite name for something that isn’t conversion and isn’t therapy. It’s abuse.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

If you come for my people, you come through me.

Today, Senator Kaine and I will force the Senate to vote on the administration’s decision to blow up ships in the Caribbean.

If a president can unilaterally put people or groups on a list and kill them, there is no meaningful limit to his use of force.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Thanks, New Yorker

This is Barrett. He keeps trying to howl along with his big sister Hazel. Personally finds the practice repulsive but refuses to be left out. 13/10 for both (TT: jennyrae23)

Either you're against fascism, or you're foolish enough to believe it won't come for you.
