15 million Americans are going to lose their health care.

He wants us to riot. Hunger can cause people to do that…

Republicans are taking away health care from 15 million Americans.

They are doubling premiums for 20 million.

Now, they are illegally withholding emergency SNAP funding that keeps millions of children from going hungry.

All so they can give $1 trillion in tax breaks to the 1%.

And another thing about fly fishing - falling in the river fucking sucks. Don’t ask me how I know.

Blue States: It Is Time For Soft Secession Democratic run State and County Govts contribute 71% of the United States economy, and it's past time they flexed their muscle to protect our humanity

It is the moral, ethical, and yes legally right for Democratic States and Cities to engage in Soft Secession by withholding federal taxes. This would not violate the Supremacy Clause, has immense precedent in US history, & the time to act is NOW.

The president had a MRI but won't say why.

He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why.

He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical.

He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it.

How is any of this ok?

Rule of Law Alert: Trump’s authority for country-specific tariffs comes from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which doesn’t mention tariffs—but does require a national emergency.

An ad showing that Reagan opposed tariffs surely is not a national emergency. (It may be a personal one)

The reclusive plutocrat who became the biggest political donor of 2024 The largest donor of the 2024 presidential campaign, by far, is Timothy Mellon, the reclusive billionaire and heir to the Mellon banking fortune.

1. Here are some facts about the guy, Timothy Mellon, who donated $130 million so Trump could pay the troops during the government shutdown.

🧵

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

📌Trump took a wrecking ball to OUR White House, while billionaire Timothy Mellon took ownership of OUR military by paying them so the shutdown can continue and the sharks in the grotesque healthcare industry can attack OUR benefits.

The rich are eating us, and leaving us to fight over the scraps.

1. Reagan’s speech is real

2. It’s public domain

3. Americans pay the cost of the added 10% tariffs, not Canadians

4. Trump keeps lying because he thinks you’re all too stupid to fact check

5. The average family will pay an extra $4900 this year because his tariffs

Everyone’s talking about Steve Bannon saying Trump will be president in 2028. But here’s the point most are missing: He’s openly floating treason and civil war.

“Seizing institutions and purging them.” Isn’t rhetoric, it’s a test to see how far Trump’s followers will go.

1/2

Yep, it’s the food stamps.

MAGA can tell me to “cry harder” all day long, but they know damn well they didn’t vote for ballrooms and breadlines.

They know.

They’re just too damn stubborn, stupid and scared to admit it.

The question of "why do people vote against their self-interest" is pretty self-explanatory when you look up the literacy rate in local schools.

We have high schools with a literacy rate of 32%.

Thirty-two percent...

During the government shutdown, President Trump:
 
- Raised $250 million from billionaires for a ballroom
- Gave Qatar an Air Force facility in Idaho
- Doubled Argentina's bailout to $40 billion
 
What happened to America First?

Honestly, a stupid (but truthful) comment with horrendous timing (shutdown) that would get most Press Secretaries fired. But, as Trump likes to say, she never will be because “those lips move like a machine gun.” bsky.app/profile/hake...

MAGA keeps saying Trump is “saving taxpayers money” and “paying down the national debt.” If that were true, why did the U.S. national debt just surpass $38 trillion, a record high in American history?

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

The President is not a king.
The law is not a suggestion.
The Constitution is not optional.

awe mariners! Another heartbreaker.

Robert De Niro: “[Donald Trump] has no empathy. ... It’s something deeply psychological in him. He wants to hurt people, he wants to hurt this country.”

Our confirmed count stands at 8.1 million participants worldwide for yesterday’s No Kings protest. Thank you to everyone who helped verify the numbers through our submission website. While some MAGAs attempted to submit false or misleading data (such as reporting “one person” for major cities)

everyone: we don’t want kings

rightwing media: this is a confusing protest line, no one is claiming trump is a king

the entire trump administration:

🇺🇸 One of the things that gave me great heart (among many) during Saturday's No Kings rallies was the number of American flags that were flying.
Because WE, not them, represent the ideals that the United States was founded upon.
It's about damn time the REAL patriots finally recaptured the flag ...

It’s so funny that for the past week republicans have all been like “the only people out there are gonna be Hamas.” Everyone in this crowd is signed up for Kohl’s rewards points.

Breaking: Today is officially one of the biggest days of protest in American history.

Over 7 million Americans turned out to No Kings events to stand up against MAGA fascism.
