Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

I’ve never seen an American elected official fight so hard to starve people.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Not pro-life.

Contest every race. Have a candidate in every race on every ballot in every county in every state.

Run even if you know you can’t win. Run because you know you can’t win.

No seat uncontested. Bring the fight to every ballot.

Padilla: It’s not just undocumented folks who are being detained and arrested. It’s legal immigrants—even US citizens. We know of at least 170 US citizens who have been caught up in these raids and put in detention centers.

It’s the intended effect of this administration to stoke fear and terror

Trump is — and always will be — Putin’s bitch.

Dr Albert Sabin

On this day in 1956 Albert Sabin announced an oral polio vaccine, which surpassed Jonas Salk's vaccine in making polio a thing of the past for millions around the world.

Polio afflicted FDR, Mitch McConnell, Robert Redford, and many others.

Let's not let RFK Jr bring it back.

As we resist Trump’s tyranny, America gains solidarity.

As we gain solidarity, we feel more courageous.

As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime.

As we weaken Trump and his regime, we have less to fear.

She earned this!!👏

here's clips of Elise Stefanik getting brutally booed at an event today in her district

That wasn’t a summit. That was a debacle.

Yes, Yes and YES.

Quite the contrast.

Government papers found in an Alaskan hotel reveal new details of Trump-Putin summit Documents with sensitive details about the meeting between President Trump and Russian President Putin were left behind on a public hotel printer.

“Sloppy” and “Incompetent”

A few words that accurately describe the Trump Administration

Governor Newsom declares today “A SUCCESSFUL LIBERATION DAY!”

Imagine if they’d had sandwiches. 🥪

International embarrassment.

This isn't justice. This is one monster helping out another.

None of the Epstein/Maxwell survivors were notified of Maxwell’s transfer to the minimum security facility.

This is what fear looks like.

Oops: On Joe Rogan’s podcast in September 2018, Tulsi Gabbard acknowledged that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. Rogan called it “amazing” that it took until 2016 for foreign election influence to become a major issue in the U.S.

we are currently watching an entire political party run cover for the most notorious sex trafficking ring in modern human history

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Jeff Daniels speaks out..

He's everything that's wrong.

We’re supposed to elect the best of us, not the worst of us.
