The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Trump Organization Is Said to Be in Talks on a Saudi Government Real Estate Deal

This coming week, Trump will host Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi leader who approved the murder and dismemberment of U.S.-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Not coincidentally, the Saudis are working on a new business deal with the Trump Organization.
It's blood money – or bonesaw money.

According to a new analysis by Democrats on the Joint Economic Committee, the average American family has paid more than $700 in higher costs per month since Trump took office.

Remember when Trump said he would end inflation on "day one"?

"Concepts of a plan" since 2016

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

Merkley: "We were hearing the president yesterday saying, 'Well, I don't want to do these tax credits. Maybe I want to send out checks instead.' Ok, Mr President, you have a new plan? Let's get these tax credits out now & you'll have a year to develop the details & not have people left in the lurch"

Her reply should have been “what are you trying to say?”

Hey @southwestair.bsky.social it’s not a joke. It’s life or death for some. Seriously bad idea.

Bari Weiss is off to quite a start 😡🤦🏻‍♀️

The Supreme Court ruled that Trump can unilaterally withhold $4 billion in foreign aid already approved by Congress that his regime deemed “wasteful.”

Meanwhile, he’s happy to bail out his authoritarian pal in Argentina to the tune of $20 billion.

Talk about wasteful.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this.

You're welcome

Rep. Jasmine Crockett just did an absolutely brilliant job on Kasie Hunt's CNN show explaining why it's fair to describe Donald Trump as authoritarian and why it's nonsense to say that saying this promotes violence.

She's clearly got a lot of brain processing power, I must say.

Let’s Not Forget Who Charlie Kirk Really Was The right-wing influencer did not deserve to die, and we shouldn’t forget the many despicable things he said and did.

We can be morally outraged by an assassination and at the same time acknowledge that Charlie Kirk’s racism and misogyny were immoral. Whitewashing his behavior and beliefs betrays the collective by masking how we got to this place in America.

Absolutely.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Got mine today too!

July 12, 2025 On July 5, the day after the Texas floods hit, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) received 3,027 calls from survivors and answered 3,018 of them, about 99.7%, according to Maxine Joselow o...

The Supreme Court did this. Monstrous. Blood on their robes.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

I love this lady. She's starting a series exposing who is helping to pay for alligator Alcatraz concentration camp.

Democracies do not use their military to try and intimidate their own citizens with “shows of presence”.

This is fascism.

So glad we all get to experience the Most Ironic Independence Day In American History.

Shame! Yes she got kickbacks, but she doesn’t realize that Alaskans still depend on a stable & accessible system in WA. Harborview Seattle is Alaska’s closest Level 1 facility. She may feel she is helping Alaska, but she is hurting the state that Alaskans need to function well to access vital care.
