MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen.

Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy.

She’s lived here 48 years.
They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyerβ€”and jailed her.

She. Is. A. Citizen.

The reality that masked men without proper identification are confronting and arresting and taking away people should be intolerable to anyone who calls themselves American.

we have a secretary of
-transportation making it more dangerous to travel
-education making kids stupider
-defense making us more vulnerable to attacks
-homeland security making us feel less secure than ever
-health and human services trying to spread illness

everything’s fine.

NYC. I walked the entire route from 42nd to 23rd and every block was packed! At 23rd we had to disperse so I walked back up to Grand Central and the entire 20 blocks were packed again. No media there to cover it. None of them giving it it’s due as hundreds of thousands of protesters!

Trump, as he has so often before, has managed to do something (with the tariffs) that is simultaneously hugely destructive, malevolent in its contempt for the human consequences of his action and yet, at the same time, clownishly ridiculous. He's a cruel, narcissistic Godzilla with a clown nose.

FOLKS: I've been told that Florida Dems and Wisconsin Dems DESPERATELY need volunteers to help phone back!

I'm placing the links for BOTH below. Can you please repost this like crazy to help get the word out?

Please and thank you! πŸ™πŸ’ͺ

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Seriously -- he's broadcasting plans to violate state and federal election laws, in support of his quest to sway a state Supreme Court election.

Arrest him.

Yes, even though he's really rich.

Arrest him.

The LEAST Dems can do is stop approving his nominations. Stop working with republicans. After Signal the biggest national security breach ever there have been no consequences. Don’t work with republicans. They are allowing
Trump to set the constitution on fire.

We should all be terrified to live in an America where legal residents can be detained, held at gunpoint, or deported because of the color of their skin or because the President disagrees with their views.

From a source: β€œJust had a co-presenter for a buildings research conference bow out. She’s a dual citizen and the FBI came knocking to ask her about her involvement in coauthoring chunks of the Paris Agreement.

I find it so interesting that in two popular TV series with evil billionaires trying to take over the country - Zero Day and Paradise - Hollywood has cast them both as women. Yet in reality, all the evil billionaires we are currently living with are men.

Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True. (Gift Article) A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

I am so grateful for the reporters who are doing the work on telling the story of the incredible negative impact of the cessation of US aid. The human toll is hard to wrap one's head around. This article is a must read.

She doesn't mention cloture specifically. But I think it's clear what Pelosi is saying here. And I think her saying it is a pretty big deal.

Call these Senators who seem to be on the fence about the CR vote and tell them to vote NO:

John Fetterman (D-PA): (202) 224-4254

Chuck Schumer (D-NY): (202) 224-6542

Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY): (202) 224-4451
