DC rally protests cuts to US veterans programs: ‘Promises made to us have come under attack’ https://twp.ai/4inBY2

I have no expectations of the DHS dogebags having an attack of conscience, but maybe they'll surprise me.

This video is making the rounds again for a reason.

A great example of how you make your voices heard—without saying a word. Power in numbers and it sends a clear message. This is what democracy looks like: standing up to fascism, tyranny, and racism.

This is the way!

Okay friends. Today I am writing a thread that I have been thinking about for a long, long, long time. It's really, really important.

It is also very heavy. Cis people, read this. Look with your eyes open at it. Sit with it. Feel it. Absorb it.

Trans people, take care.

This is about history.

Pete Hegseth in 2016: "Fire anyone leaking defense info—it’s a national security risk!"

Pete Hegseth in 2025: Leaks classified strike plans to his wife, brother, and lawyer.
The hypocrisy is staggering.

Oops Pete: By your own standards, you should fire yourself. 🔥🪖

Eric Rodriguez, a disabled Iraq War veteran & worker at the Department of Veterans Affairs, said that veterans are “under attack” by the cuts to the VA under FOTUS & DOGE.

His #CupOfJoe is overflowing w/ disgraceful facts about the FOTUS regime.

The Trump regime's ICE forces attacked a couple and smashed their window to abduct 29-year-old Juan Francisco Méndez, who hadn't committed a crime, while he waited for his lawyer. Regime forces can be seen attacking the civilians with a sledge hammer. #3E

1. Great news.

Yesterday, Planned Parenthood of Arizona restarted gender affirming care for transgender adults.

This decision comes after widespread public outcry at a "pause," which was seen as overcompliance with Trump threats.

Headline: ICE came for their neighbor so these Tennesseans formed a human chain to protect him

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

No. You’ve been watching stock market fraud.

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Elon Musk trying to prove his worth to online teens gets destroyed by commenters as he live streamed Path of Exile 2 whispers. Commenters said “YOU HAVE NO REAL FRIENDS AND WILL DIE ALONE” & “DIE” as he frantically tried to hide them, then lost his hardcore permadeath character due to Starlink lag.

Japanese American National Museum takes a stand against DOGE cuts to NEH The National Endowment for the Humanities warned museums across the country that it was slashing funding, including money previously pledged to places such as LACMA and the Japanese American National ...

Can we get more of this? “The Japanese American National Museum will ‘scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI.

“Our community is based on diversity, equity is guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and inclusion is what we believe in,” Fujioka said.

The power of the people is greater than the power of any government that forgets it serves them.

Over 5 MILLION people showed up to make their voices heard yesterday.

In over a thousand locations both here and abroad.

Their messages were clear.

The rampant destruction of Elon Musk and Donald Trump must end.

We reject the oligarchy.

Democracy is worth fighting for.

America is worth saving.

A massive crowd of people gathers outdoors, holding signs, under a cloudy sky, with trees and buildings in the background.

Sounds familiar

I don't want to sound too much like a badass, but one time I played a Male Human Fighter and everything felt much simpler and easier than playing other classes or ancestries. Truly diabolical. Insidious even. All I had to do was hit stuff, and it didn't even really matter what I was hitting!

People that don’t know history are doomed to repeat it.

Right now, in our country we are 100% repeating one of the ugliest most disgraceful times in world history, and it’s our government doing it.

We need more brave individuals to speak up and speak out to save the soul of our nation.

DOGE is coming for your voter information Places like Georgia, where Republicans are passing a new election denial bill, will welcome DOGE's infiltration of voter registration data.

GA!! Heads up. Info for all red states.

“Every accusation is an admittance with these people.”

We should all be worried. Stay woke and resist the oligarchs!

These men behind bars are not in prison after being charged with crimes. They are "enemy combatants" being detained in a concentration camp.

As such, Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of ‘exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.

📢 Fact check: NPR & PBS provide vital news, education & culture—not hate.

The real threat?

Politicians pushing Christian nationalism & censorship.

TRUMP ADMIN SCALES BACK GREENLAND VISIT AFTER MASSIVE BACKLASH The Trump administration has been forced to cancel most of its planned visit to Greenland after facing backlash from Greenlanders, and will now only be visiting a U.S. military base on the territory. In advance of the visit, American representatives knocked on doors to see if any Greenlanders would welcome Usha Vance into their home. Every single person told them no. Greenland's Prime Minister condemned the visit and demonstrations against the U.S. were planned, sending

This is why the Trump regime canceled its visit to Greenland. Can you imagine? #StandwithGreenland
