It works!

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

If Congress doesn’t act quickly to permanently extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits, health insurance premiums will more than DOUBLE for 22 million people.

Fund the government.
Fix the health care crisis.
Put working people first.

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans just shut down the government to push their extreme agenda. They’d rather strip Medicaid, eliminate SNAP benefits, and close rural hospitals than keep our government open.

It’s appalling.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising.

Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.

If you heard the leader of another nation threatening to unleash the military against his perceived political enemies, what would you call it?

I’m still processing what happened this morning.

Is it now the administration’s position that the U.S. military does not observe or adhere to the laws of war?

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Study Author on Acetaminophen Use in Pregnancy This Medical News article is an interview with epidemiologist Brian Lee, PhD, about his study on acetaminophen use during pregnancy and children’s risk of autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders...

Science & medicine are hard.
To become a physician or researcher takes years of study & dedication.

This author deserves respect.

Just to note. January 23, 2019 there was a vote to reopen government (HJ RES 28, roll call vote 46) when the govt had been shut down for 30 days.

Mike Johnson voted “no” on that.

They didn’t seem to mind shutdowns then

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

Vaccines save lives.
Maybe yours?
Or your child’s?
Or grandchild’s?

While Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are puffing themselves up in front of the U.S. military leaders at Quantico, I would like to remind everyone of an important historical detail: “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

How Tom Homan wound up ensnared in an FBI contracts-for-cash sting A former associate of Trump’s border czar allegedly proposed a $1 million scheme last year that put FBI agents on Homan's trail.

The reason we're rounding up grandmothers and shoving them onto concrete floors for months at a time with no habeas corpus is in part because soft human trafficking is an incredibly lucrative business for some people in this administration.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Kristi Noem: How DARE you accuse our glorious ICE agents of racial profiling.

Head of the Chicago raids: We are stopping people based on “how they look, how do they look compared to, say,” a tall, middle aged white guy.

Yes, it's a good thing that DHS is condemning this ICE officer, but let's realize this only happened because 1) the video went viral and 2) the ICE agent was unmasked.

We need to hold them accountable to actions like this everyday.

“we…will not live on our knees, and you shouldn’t either…. fear is the tool of a tyrant, …but I’m not afraid, and I hope you’re not either. I hope instead you are engaged, you are paying attention, and you will vote like your beloved country depends upon it, which it does.”
-James Comey

Congratulations to @jimmykimmel.com on his triumphant return!
Last night he was pitch-perfect. Inspirational, self-reflective, gracious to his haters, championing the 1st Amendment & most importantly: FUNNY.

(Shout-out to Robert DeNiro as the mob-boss head of the FCC)😆

Ha

Your children aren’t in any danger from autism but the pedophiles and child rapists like Donald Trump who are being protected by withholding release of the Epstein files are a clear and present danger to your children

Be loud!

I have no idea who shot at the ICE facility or why, & hard to trust this FBI director. Murder is always inexcusable.

Now, the idea that people are mad at ICE because of ‘Democrats’ rhetoric’ & not because of daily videos of masked ICE agents assaulting people, including citizens, is for the birds.

Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."
