Before the Senate votes on Trump’s Tax Scam, there will be a “vote-a-rama.” This is when senators can propose endless changes that their colleagues then need to vote on.

You probably have some creative ideas for amendments. Submit them now to help keep vote-a-rama going for as long as possible. 👇

Remember: Ds must make this a career-ender for every R who votes for this monstrously cruel bill

@JD-Vance-1 Happy Juneteenth!!!!

No one is better at explaining things than @petebuttigieg.bsky.social. Wishing you all a wonderful and MEANINGFUL Juneteenth! 🖤

OMG YES… say that‼️

@tarasetmayer.bsky.social nails it.

Honestly, we’ve been waiting for politicians to catch up to where the people are—and it’s getting damn late!

Ted Cruz is doing the most Ted Cruziest thing imaginable - posting a bunch of clips from a debate that he lost.

This is so wrong. All to feed the ego of a mad tyrant who never had the balls to serve. This is not what we do in America. This is so fucking wrong. Makes me so sad. And so angry.👇

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there.

What an unbelievable asshole.

Castor: They told Heidy Sánchez, ‘Come in early—we want to check on your status.’ And she did the right thing… And at that ICE meeting, they took her. They took her away from her child. This is a breastfeeding mother. They flew her to another detention center in Miami, and then onto a plane to Cuba.

This deserved a meme.

A Spoken Word that is part of my #TEDx. Take a minute to listen. So many people are walking around with masks on. They need to know that it's safe to take their mask off and to be their authentic self

I always thought that habitual offender laws and three strikes laws emerged in the 1990s as part of the tough-on-crime era. But then I was looking through old state codes and I saw a three strikes law from 1923. Then I found dozens from around this time, and wondered (naively) what was going on.

YESTERDAY: Largest strike in LA history - boosted by loss of Federal Grants. 55,000 union members striked and 10,000 marched. SEIU Local 721

He is such a Great human being. So humble and down to earth

Thank you to everyone who showed up, good news, the judge has been released!

NEW: A federal judge raised alarm Friday that the Trump administration appeared to have deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with "no meaningful process" — even as her father was fighting to keep her in the country.

@aoc.bsky.social: "Listen, if your representative is not doing a town hall, give me a ring... I'll say it right here, right now: if a deep red Republican district wants to have an honest conversation, even if it's with someone they disagree with, I'm willing to do that."

Excited to be heading to Denver on Sunday for the #ACJS conference. Also blessed to be speaking at @uofdenver.bsky.social and @ucdenver.bsky.social

No More Female 4-Stars: Franchetti Firing Leaves Top Ranks Filled by Men Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth fired Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the Navy's first female chief, last week without any clear explanation -- part of a purge of top uniformed leadership that included the Joint...

NOTE: The opponents of DEI are purging anyone who is not a white man from military leadership

This is not about merit; it’s about normalizing racism and misogyny
