Absolutely traitors. And do the American people have what it takes for the new Nuremberg trials? Or will it continue to be pearl clutching.

SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

That sound you heard was every GOP elected official with a lick of sense absolutely SHITTING themselves thinking about the visual of Mark Kelly back in uniform before a military court as Whiskey Pete's handpicked chucklefucks try to railroad him on bogus charges.

Political violence from the regime is ramping up as their leader spirals

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

Kelly: "I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the Space Shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said."

🚨Using any kind of chemical weapons at this range is aggravated assault against peaceful protesters. They have no weapons, they pose no threat. ICE is the enemy. 1/2

The age of keeping whales and dolphins in captivity must finally come to an end Research shows it is not possible for captive cetaceans to thrive in concrete pools

Yesterday, a Republican tried to give me holy water and Trump perfume because I’m “demonic.”

Extremely normal stuff coming from an extremely normal party.

I think Americans are realizing that democracy is a participation sport, and the the government is ours if we want it to be. I feel like we got complacent and hoped some other third party would do the work for us. Seems like we have to learn that lesson every generation.

I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served.

F that!

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Pay attention to what Democratic candidates are saying right now. Find and support the fighters. Having a spine must be a litmus test issue in 2026 and beyond.

Correct

She’s just mad Trump wouldn’t let her run for GA Senator

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected 43 days ago.

Republicans still refuse to swear her in because she is the final vote needed to release the Epstein Files.

So many predicted close races, which is understandable. But turnout favored the anti-kings…. And blew the predictions up. 2026, and 2028….. stand back and stand by

Not one.

CONVICTED FELONS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PARDON CONVICTED FELONS. ALSO, CONVICTED FELONS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BE PRESIDENT.

"I promise to question everything my leaders tell me. I promise to use my critical faculties. I promise to develop my independence of thought. I promise to educate myself so I can make my own judgements."

-Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark

The hypocrisy is stunning

Starvation is a common tactic used by fascist regimes.

Release the Epstein files.

This is brilliant

reminder that Hitler never wrote a new German constitution, never "officially" changed the government

he just closed the legislature and ruled alone, against the law, until he was stopped
