"Despite months of effort, Trump/Miller have not come close to manufacturing the sense of fear in the country they’d hoped for.
Do Dem leaders have their own theory about this moment? It’s unclear. But here’s what we can divine right now: Govs. Pritzker & Newsom do have one.
Will others join them?

🚨🚨🚨 Trump has called for the ARREST of Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson. Listen for his “reasoning.” And share because this is weaponization of authority to control political dissidents. 1/2

Universal Child Care Is Popular. New Mexico Showed Us How We Can Win It. A vibrant, grassroots, bottom-up movement was behind the victory, offering a template that other states can follow.

Organizers in New Mexico spent a decade electing lawmakers who would put the question of universal child care funded by oil and gas royalties on the ballot and in late 2022, voters were allowed to decide on the matter directly. They voted overwhelmingly to approve it.

Actually, Mike, if you're a young, pregnant American citizen woman who shows up in an ER in TEXAS or some other GOP-run states, THEY WON'T TREAT YOU AT ALL.

They'll wait until you're dying of sepsis. Then, when you're brain dead, they'll hook you up to tubes and treat your corpse as an incubator.

Look at his eyes - pure panic.

These "federal agents" are like clumsy mall cops with guns. No training, no control, no clue.

It’s a miracle they haven’t shot each other yet.

They're a danger to the public.

🎯💯‼️🤡

Hello - I'm back again. A new 🧵every day covering the important aspects of the Russia-Ukraine war (without the gratuitous gore)

Today it's Day 1323 of Moscow's illegal invasion as it continues Putin's dream to reunite the states of the Soviet Union, whether they like it or not (spoiler: they DON'T)

I love how Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House and #2 in line for the presidency, is always like, “What? News?! I never read or hear anything that happens in the world, anywhere. I’m totally offline. What even is ‘social media’? They play news all day on TV!? Wow! That’s a surprise!”

Setting aside the absurdly xenophobic framing, once again, there is ZERO truth to any of this. Everyone qualifies for Emergency Medicaid equally. Hospitals do not receive more for treating undocumented immigrants in an emergency than Americans. Speaker Johnson is flatly wrong.

This.💯

So much this.

What we don't talk about enough is the dignity harm suffered by women who have to share the public sphere with guys who go around talking about our bodies like we're a public resource whose use and distribution they're qualified to determine.

So federal workers are working without pay, and furloughed workers will only get the back pay required by law IF Trump deems them worthy?

Did I get that right?

Trump calls for jailing of Chicago mayor and Illinois governor as national guard arrives in city President accused Brandon Johnson and JB Pritzker of failing to protect Ice officers as troops deploy to Chicago

🚨I’m tired of them acting like this shit is normal in any way and not unconstitutional and anti-American‼️

Trump calls for jailing of Chicago mayor and Illinois governor as national guard arrives in city | Chicago | The Guardian

UNREAL there were no air traffic controllers at Burbank Airport amid the government shutdown.

Republicans would rather protect child predators & deny you healthcare than staff our airports 🥴

As troops invade Chicago, Trump threatens to jail the mayor and governor "What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?"

This morning, Trump declared that the mayor of Chicago, Democrat Brandon Johnson, “should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers!”

“Governor Pritzker also!” Trump added.

If you think these threats are just bluster, consider that Comey was arraigned today—a longtime dream of Trump’s.

Arrest made in deadly Palisades fire, source tells CNN | CNN A suspect has been arrested in connection to the Palisades Fire, which burned in January.

Odd feds charged this as destruction of property but not the state with murder charges, given 12 people died.

Who's the AUSA handling it?

It's weird that Republicans wanted Hillary Clinton locked up for "running a child sex ring in a pizza parlor basement," yet when Trump and Epstein literally ran a child sex ring out of Mar-a-Lago, they don't see the problem.

Graphic of “Read Banned Books” with a row of readable book covers of many of the works our Turd Reich wants hidden from us.

It’s sad to see that three of the greatest American novels ever written, Huck Finn, To Kill a Mockingbird, and The Invisible Man, are all among the books the MAGAts want hidden.

This! 🙌🏼
