Have you heard? There’s a new bill that makes it harder for millions of eligible Americans to vote. Join me and @standupamerica.bsky.social in urging Congress to vote NO on the SAVE Act: act.standupamerica.com/letters/no-o...

It's very important to understand this phrase. If this doesn't get us out on the streets in VERY LARGE numbers on October 18 (and whenever possible), the 🇺🇸 as we know it for nearly 250 years Dill cease to exists. FACT.

Please take a minute to read and repost widely. Thank you.

California has invested a total of $500M for Literacy Coaches in the 2022 and 2023 Budget Acts, funding 818 of the state’s highest needs schools to hire and train reading specialists.

We're making significant investments to provide students with resources to succeed.

If U.S. states have any degree of sovereignty, if there’s any states’ rights at all, it is the right not to be invaded by the armed forces of another U.S. state.

Turning the military on citizens.

Attempting to rig elections.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Ms. Martinez’ lawyer says body cam footage shows the agent turned into HER car and yelled “do something bitch” before firing shots.

This is about more than free speech.

It's about power.

And intimidation.

If they can disappear Colbert & Kimmel from the TV in your home, they can disappear you from your home.

And they will. This is just the beginning.

We all need to stick together & fight for each other.

The Devil is here.

Jimmy Kimmel wasn't being totally factually inaccurate, but more to he point, *he was telling a joke.* Censorship of comedians is pretty textbook authoritarian behavior.

@timmiller.bsky.social and @samsteindc.bsky.social:

David Letterman is right: you can't appease a tyrant.

You can’t talk about cleaning up crime in D.C. while a 34-count convicted felon is running the country.

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

They want to control our words more than they control guns. Isn’t that something

Swalwell: There’s going to be a Democratic majority in just over a year. To the FCC chairperson and anyone in involved in these dirty deals: get a lawyer and save your records because you’re going to be in this room answering questions

🚨BREAKING: Rep. Ro Khanna just motioned to SUBPOENA FCC chairman Brendan Carr in the House Oversight Committee to stop the intimidation of private businesses and assault on free speech

Awesome 👏🏻

Folks, share this instead of the inflammatory WSJ report that didn't list the important facts in the headlines.

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

ICYMI - You guys know that’s Mar-a-Lago in Epstein’s birthday book, right?

Must be nice to not have oligarchs on your Supreme Court.

Guys, I know you all still cling to conspiracy theories about Merrick Garland bc ... well, you watch too many TV lawyers who knew fuckall about the investigation.

But this is a fact. A trial was scheduled to happen 3 years after Jan6, just like Bolsonaro got.

Who killed it? John Roberts.

This was his response.

Yankees honored a nazi

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "I think he should start with Shreveport, Louisiana, and Speaker Johnson's district that has 6x the per capita murder rate of Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco. What about the carnage, Mr. President, in Shreveport? Why aren't you protecting the folks there? What bullshit."

Trying to get it all straight. So 1600 people that ATTACKED THE CAPITAL AND OUR GOVERNMENT (TREASON), GOT A PARDON AND A SIX FIGURE JOB WITH THAT SAME GVMNT, BUT THE DUDE THAT THREW A FUCKIN SANDWICH LOSES HIS JOB AND CHARGED WITH A FELONY!? 🤦🏼
Totalitarianism is here.
Be as courageous as you can!

Newsom: If California, one of the most un-Trumped states in America, is not successful, it’s at our peril. We may not get this back. I’m telling you, we may not.

He is rigging this next midterm election before one vote is cast. He tried to wreck our democracy after the last vote was cast last time.

OMG BAAAAHAHA
