We’ll never know what could have been, but we do know they chose to believe him and not her, and now they are making up excuses for their votes that put us all in harm’s way.

Don’t think this is a one-off.

Federal agents thought they could stay at LA-area hotels. Communities are trying to make sure they can’t When federal agents checked into a Pasadena hotel, they didn't expect hundreds of protesters and a day laborers’ band β€” now the tactic that kicked them out is spreading across LA.

Attacking Iran fits with Trump’s desire to divert attention from his failures at home: his losses in the courts, his unpopular budget bill, millions of people protesting against his authoritarianism.

When he feels humiliated, he gets reckless.

Understand what's going on.

Tech execs are joining the Army β€” no grueling boot camp required Tech leaders from Palantir, Meta, and OpenAI have joined the Army Reserve, bypassing traditional training to chase transformation.

Every veteran should be outraged, even MAGA.

I'm a vet and worked hard to earn every goddamn rank!

I thought the elimination of DEI was to promote people based on merit.

This is bullshyt!😑

They’re preemptively trying to blame Biden for any attacks on Americans that result from Trump’s war. Absolutely desperate.

This action by the Regime is illegal. It is time to call for impeachment for taking on War Powers without Congressional approval.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Opal Lee is an American activist who helped make Juneteenth a federally recognized holiday.

She is often described as the "grandmother of Juneteenth.”

On June 17, 2021, President Joe Biden signed Senate Bill S. 475, making Juneteenth the eleventh federal holiday.

β€œWhen a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…”
-AOC, FOUR months ago

She knew that THEY knew.
The Democratic base knew.

Notice the empty chamber. πŸ‘‡πŸ½

How was there no contingency plan in the works LAST SUMMER??
Y’all know exactly when.

We need Dems willing to fight and lead.

Can someone please ask Karoline Leavitt why the Director of White House Personnel refuses to say what country he is from and refuses to complete paperwork for a background check?

Can you also ask if β€œSergio Gor” is the name on his birth certificate.

Seems kinda important.

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.
