In this country there should be no such thing as “working poor”.
Yet here we are. Republicans are set to dismantle protections for the most vulnerable and are to continuing to up end our economies, communities, livelihoods, and security. All to make the wealthy wealthier. It is reprehensible.

Bondi need to be impeached and to have her law license revoked if she is advocating for lawlessness and not respecting judge’s orders. She is not in a position to make the law.
Attorney General Pam Bondi said that the Trump administration would “absolutely” continue expelling Venezuelan immigrants from the U.S., despite a federal judge’s order temporarily halting the deportations.
Bondi Says Trump Will Defy Judge, Continue Deportations
“I don’t care what the judges think. I don’t care what the Left thinks. We’re coming,” said “border czar” Tom Homan.

This is so absolutely disconcerting and absurd. HOW on earth is it presidential to bully and raise your voice and interrupt a head of state from a foreign county that has been (hopefully remains) an ally.
As you watch Trump berate and put his hand on Zelenskyy just ask yourself one simple question: could you ever imagine him speaking to Putin like this?
BREAKING: There has just been a huge argument between Zelenskyy, Trump & Vance in the Oval Office.
Trump calls Zelenskyy disrespectful and says he “is no position to dictate” to the US.
Trump raises his voice to Zelenskyy. He can’t stand someone standing up to him.
This is unbelievable.

I wish this wasn’t as true as it is. Especially since it seems like there is so little political will to stop them from destroying it all.
They were never going to lower prices. They never cared about egg prices. It's the same lie as CRT. They want us chasing their bullshit while the real mission is to disassemble the government so the rich can get richer. They are on a mission to destroy it all. It's beyond a coup.

CFPB is here to to protect against scams and exploitation… CFPB is here to look out for “the little guy”… this is an attack on all of us.
This is like if the mob got to fire every federal agent investigating organized crime bsky.app/profile/make...
I'm hearing now that *every* technologist CFPB hired to investigate Big Tech was fired this evening. That's somewhere between 70-100 people.

This is all a good reminder that, “no help, no votes until the criminal conduct stops” is neither a big ask nor a politically perilous one.

It is weird to live in a country that is actively trying to undermine our government and the humans who have dedicated their lives to ensure that we are protected. Private for profit businesses are always going to look out for themselves, their boards, and their shareholders.

No one knows what caused last night's tragic crash outside DCA.
Investigations are ongoing, and no one - not Donald Trump or anyone else - should be drawing conclusions until all the facts have been released.
But here is what we do know. (1/7)

This is what needs to be talked about.
FAA staffing shortages have been exacerbated by
House Republicans' repeated near-shutdowns of the government and their refusal to fully fund critical government functions.
These programs were only funded because more Democrats than Republicans voted to prevent these shutdowns. (7/7)

Be a part of eroding tyranny!!! In anyway you can!
It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.
Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.
