Donald Trump does NOT want you to share this footage of his pathetically tiny birthday parade crowd.

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal.

I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.

I will say this - EVERYONE with power seems to be desperately hoping that unpopularity does the work that consequences need to do

I would one hundred percent call myself a Common Sense Democrat and vote a straight ticket of Common Sense Democrats challenging Democratic incumbents in the next primary elections.

I actually think the dems should attend the SOTU, wait till the 2nd sentence, and then walk out en masse, that'll do it, there'll be no address, he'll just have a meltdown on national Tv

We're not done yet | 18F

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

JD Vance isn’t just hiding from the American people, he spent our tax dollars to rent out the entirety of Sugarbush Mountain all weekend and now he isn’t even using it. Like the wasteful, cowardly little toad he is. He should not be able to enjoy anything for the next 4 years.

If you are a liberal in deep blue territory, one thing you could try doing right now is figuring out how to replace your Democratic member of Congress next year. With very few exceptions, the typical safe seat Dem is not meeting the moment. Find someone who will and help them.

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Rep. Josh Schriver, R-Oxford, said he will not take questions about his resolution asking the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn Obergefell which legalized same sex marriage nationwide in 2015. 

Front row at the presser is Sen. Jeremy Moss, D-Southfield, who is openly gay.

β€œTough guy” Schriver wants to tear apart families, but is too big a wimp to take questions at his own press event. @jeremymoss.bsky.social came to sit front and center and stare down bigotry. Real courage in the face of shameful cowardice.

A picture inside the Omaha venue in which hundreds are seen standing and listening to Bernie Sanders. Many have their phones in the air recording it and it is a generally young crowd.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night.

800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream.

There is a movement to be harnessed here.
