What we are experiencing with Trump is so insane I’m increasingly convinced we all died during Covid and this is hell.

Powerful to rally today with several hundred teachers, families, and community members in support of West Contra County teachers!

Our community supports the strike and will be out in the streets every day until teachers get a fair contract.

β€œThis suit is about saying enough is enough...in this case and every case it has to be the truth over Trump.” Rep. @ericswalwell.bsky.social on why he’s not cowering to the President’s retribution efforts and is standing firm in his battle against a Trump official over mortgage fraud allegations.

Rep. Eugene Vindman: "β€ŠI want to start by condemning the president for calling for six Democratic members of Congress, all of whom are patriots who served our country to be hanged. It is the kind of thing we expect from a Saudi Crown Prince, not an American President."

Sen. Mark Kelly: "The president has previously said...that government shutdowns are on the president and all you need to do is get everyone in a room and have a serious conversation. And they're refusing to do that. They are holding people's healthcare hostage."

AGAIN Sen Ernst has had to decide to NOT run for re-election in order to stand up against Trump w/o retribution. She may want to vote against his agenda but feels she has to leave the Senate to allow a Democrat to take the seat!

HIGH DRAMA IN THE SENATE.

There are 50 no votes on proceeding to reconciliation. Murkowski, Rick Scott, Mike Lee have not voted. One more no vote stalls the bill.

Collins voted aye.

Tillis, Ron Johnson and Rand Paul have voted no.

This Memorial Day remember those who sacrificed for the freedoms Trump wants to take from us This is not a normal Memorial Day-we are at war.

This is not a normal Memorial Day. We are at war. Our freedoms are under attack from within as Trump seeks to transform the US into a dictatorship. To honor those who gave their lives for our freedoms, we must fight back against Trump every day. My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/this-memor...

Donald Trump and House Republicans are crashing the economy.

Costs are up, the stock market is down and America’s credit rating has been downgraded.

Is another Republican Recession next?

This was the start of our resistance and peaceful protests in the 21st century - only to be combatted by the resurgence of hate, denial & authoritarianism.

We live in a country where we can't trust anything from the Trump regime-from economic data to what we hear from the DOJ, FBI, Defense and State Department. Trump has transformed the federal government into his personal fascist tool to acquire more power.
