Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

I’m not surprised. When you lived as long as she has and the love of your life dies, it doesn’t take long for you to follow right after; it’s not an uncommon thing.

We don’t call everyone who disagrees with us a Nazi, JD, just the ones doing Nazi shit like:

-masked secret police kidnapping people off the street
-creating concentration camps
-attempting to eradicate trans people
-banning/burning LGBTQ/opposing viewpoint books
-murdering fishermen in open waters

You cannot trust information coming from Kash Patel's FBI. You cannot trust information coming from ICE. You cannot trust information coming the Trump administration. You cannot trust information coming from Republicans.

Bipartisan Push in Congress to Weaken Section 230, Expand Online Surveillance, and Increase Platform Liability Calls for platform accountability came with few answers about who decides what speech is acceptable.

#SaveSpeech

US legislators are pushing harder to pass KOSA and repeal section 230.

Call your representatives ASAP and make your voice heard! Advocate for protecting section 230, and demand your reps oppose KOSA!

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

genuinely crazy that this is happening on behalf of charlie kirk of all people

A complete collapse of political norms around virtue and ethics since 2016. This celebration of cruelty and violence, and the encouragement of the public to take joy in violence against others, is very unhealthy for society.

This vision of liberalism requires Black people to accept their humanity will always be a matter of “debate.”

No solidarity. Reporters let Trump talk this way to a woman reporter and then clamor to get their own question answered. He used to do it to April Ryan, Yamiche Alcindor and Abby Phillip.

And that’s why he controls media. No solidarity.

Many official communications channels of the US government are controlled by people who celebrate the Nazi party and the response of our elite news and political institutions has been to look the other way and not say anything about it.

we’re going to have to throw a lot of people in jail after all this is over

Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"

also, what do you think people conclude when they hear you say Donald Trump is a "wannabe king" who is "attacking the American people" (both true things Jeffries has said) and also that you want to find common ground with him?

Probably that your criticisms are insincere or that you're weak or both

J.B. Pritzker is 100% right.

Please listen to him, pay attention, and join us in speaking out against authoritarianism and to protect free and fair elections.

Troops in the streets and he thinks he’s going to get a Nobel, peace begins at home

Okay. I just came back to this and you aren’t calling these efforts resegregation yet, you absolutely should be

My heart breaks into 10,000 pieces once again.

For folks not in DC:
- There are full-on police checkpoints most nights
- Gangs of 30+ federal agents roam DC
- National Guard folks w/ guns patrolling a Harris Teeter
- Every day, multiple friends see ICE kidnapping ppl
- Daycares are scared to have kids go on walks due to ICE

🗣️YOU NEED TO CARE ABOUT THIS BECAUSE IT IS A PATTERN. HE'S GUTTING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF BLACK LEADERS BUT THOSE BLACK LEADERS OVERSEE PARTS OF THE GOVERNMENT THAT AFFECT YOUR DAY TO DAY. #blacksky #econsky

The last Democratic candidate bragged about owning a gun and featured police as speakers in their convention.

the reason this discourse will never end is because it is completely untethered from any kind of evidentiary standard. as long as there is a 19-year-old barista somewhere saying “cultural appropriation,” guys like nichols will complain that “democrats” use alienating language.

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.

Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

Performative public lying is a hallmark of far right authoritarian parties

If Bill Kristol gets it in ways that Schumer and Jefferies do not, that says volumes about party "leadership"

164 years later, South Carolina finally occupies Washington.
