Amen. And not just us old people. Our grandchildren will understand, because we'll tell them.

They Want Us Afraid Fear is their weapon. Defiance is ours.

They can smear me, threaten me, drag my name through the dirt… But I will not be silent. I will not be small. I will not disappear. Because my silence would be their victory, and I will not gift it to them.

"It's absurd to think that … the government of the United States that [the people] pay for, that they vote for, is really in service of one man. ... He is using every arm of the government to create pleasure for himself … and also to seek vengeance upon his enemies."

‘This is not a bluff’: Newsom doubles down on commitment to redistricting if Texas does Gov. Gavin Newsom said if Texas redraws its congressional maps in favor of Republicans, he and his allies in the Legislature will do the same in California to favor Democrats.

California governor Gavin Newsom has already said it: “This is not a bluff.” If Texas gerrymanders, California will respond. We need EVERY Democratic governor and legislature to make that same public commitment NOW.

Texas Democrats are showing the courage we need from Democrats everywhere. There are 15 Democratic trifecta states that can redraw their own maps if Republicans escalate: CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, ME, MD, MA, NJ, NM, NY, OR, RI, and WA.

One Million Rising: Strategic Non-Cooperation to Fight Authoritarianism · No Kings Across the country, authoritarian forces are getting bolder and more dangerous. Trump and his allies are not hiding their agenda: mass deportations, rollbacks of civil rights, weaponized courts, and f...

Our goal this summer is to train a million Americans in the strategic logic and practice of non-cooperation, as well as the basics of community organizing and campaign design. This is how we slow down, stop, and ultimately defeat Trump’s authoritarian takeover. You’re invited to join us — and lead.

My guess is all of these (1) poll 90/10 against the cuts, and (2) a good half third of the nation or more, perhaps well over 50%, and >75% of Trump supporters, just won't believe it's happening no matter what.

New U.S. jobs report shows 2025 is off to a discouragingly sluggish start Over the first six months of the year, American job growth has slowed to a 15-year low. It's worth asking why.

“The question Trump and his team ought to face is simple:

'Why has American job growth slowed this year to a 15-year low?'”

Former Supreme Court Justice Kennedy says ‘democracy is at risk’ The retired Reagan appointee joined a forum on threats to judges and the rule of law.

Former Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy warned that hostile political discourse and threats to judges are damaging the ability of the US to serve as an example of democracy worldwide.

“Democracy is at risk. Freedom is at risk, ” said Kennedy.

So, they are kidnapping them.

A message to the world:

The United States is not represented by Trump. He acted unilaterally and unconstitutionally. He and his regime in power are not a representation of the American people, and we strongly condemn this attack. We want peace, and we will hold him and his enablers accountable.

Amen to this.

And, not that matters to this regime, but he does not have any legal power to do this?? He is an evil, small being.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called Los Angeles a “city of criminals” and not a city of immigrants. But like its name, Los Angeles is a city of angels. We protect and look out for one another, especially the most vulnerable.
