When someone illegally takes your money, that’s called stealing.

Donald Trump stole your money with his illegal tariffs — and you paid higher prices on everything from housing to groceries.

It’s time for Trump to pay up and give back your money.

If we don’t want to repeat history – then for God’s sake in this moment we better be strong enough to learn from it.

Democrats Need to Get Serious About Stopping Trump From Rigging the Midterms Here’s one idea for a coordinated response to Trump’s coordinated attacks.

Trump and the Republicans are trying to rig the election. That's not being a "doomer," that's acknowledging reality.
Democrats need a coordinated, national response to these coordinated, national attacks. We need an "Elections Czar"

How Hitler seized power:

— Demonize opponents.
— Create crises.
— Weaken the press.
— Declare a state of emergency.
— Undermine elections.
— Make the rule of law irrelevant.
— Rule by executive order.

If the U.S. falls, it will be because of those who sat on their hands.

My Republican colleagues must take notice:

The U.S. cannot base foreign policy on whether or not a president gets a prize.

This is pathetic.

It is petty and dangerous narcissism — behavior we might expect from a spoiled child, not the leader of a democratic nation.

Everything Trump says here is verifiably untrue. During this period of time the number of US installations on Greenland went from 17 to 1 as a result of US determinations that they were not needed.

Money that could have gone to healthcare or education is going to an armed militia

Invading Greenland – Trump’s Worst Idea Ever. It’s time to end this discussion now.

Sept 1 1939: The Führer announces that Poland is a clear danger to the nation, and that "In order to put an end to this lunacy I have no other choice than to meet force with force. Since 5:45 a.m. we have been returning fire, and from now on bombs will be met by bombs."

Trump hates Europe’s democracies because they have universal health care, a strong social welfare system and heavy unionization.

He prefers MBS’s Saudi Arabia, where one trillionaire family runs a brutal dictatorship.

What a betrayal of American values!

The bald hypocrisy of the Trump administration shouting about free speech violations in democratic Europe without saying so word about massive violations of free speech in autocratic Russia (or Belarus) is striking and tragic.

Except this one…

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

We have just over two weeks to pass Prop 50. And when we do, it will send a message of hope across the country, that change is possible if we do the work.

So, let’s get to it. linktr.ee/cadem

He wants to dictate what the press can say.
What a university can teach.
Whom a company can employ.
And to whom the law shall apply.

He who wants all this is not a president,
But strives to be a dictator.
And all who succumb are not citizens,
But subjects.

Can't we just get healthcare

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

URGENT BREAKING: United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia Erik Siebert just resigned after Trump said he wanted him out, following his refusal to indict Letitia James.

Note: He was appointed by Trump.

This is what “going after your political opponents” really looks like MAGA.

Imagine weaponizing the Justice Department to chase phantom crimes against your political opponents… then punishing prosecutors for not making them up. That’s not America, that’s authoritarianism.

When President Newsom declares MAGA a terrorist group (they sure acted like it on Jan 6), are you ready to go to prison for saying “I’m MAGA” the same way you want me jailed for saying “I’m anti-fascist”?

Wrong again, Mike Lee. Your whole ideology will rot with fascism.

1. Just so we’re clear, this is the clip that got Jimmy Kimmel’s show shelved by ABC.

If I’m missing any other clips please let me know.

So after days of Republicans blaming and vilifying Democrats and trans people for Kirk’s murder despite having no clue who the person was, we find out it’s a white guy from a Republican family in Utah who loved guns.

Where is Trump’s attention to this matter?

In case anyone is still wondering why Bolton was raided
