So, this is what we should expect from our police force? This is considered lawful and not chargeable? I am so sick and disgusted.
Prosecutors will not bring criminal charges against sheriff’s officers who wrestled a Black man out of a car during a traffic stop and punched him multiple times, the local sheriff said Monday.
No charges for Jacksonville officers who punched Black man during arrest
William Anthony McNeil Jr. questioned why he was pulled over and refused to get out of the car. An officer smashed his window and punched him in the face, video shows.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

As heartbreaking news continues to emerge from central Texas, @chastenbuttigieg.bsky.social and I are thinking of everyone affected and grateful for the extraordinary work of first responders.

Here are some ways all of us can help:

Wow! France gifted her to us, and now they’ve captured what so many Americans are feeling on Independence Day. The values the Statue of Liberty stood for are no more.

📌 A stunning mural of the Statue of Liberty covering her face was unveiled in Roubaix, France, on July 3, 2025.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

With the passed budget bill, ICE will receive even more money.

Share these resources far and wide so our communities are prepared for more raids

On one hand you think; maybe they just need to reap what they sowed and feel the impact of supporting this buffoon

But then you realize you don’t want millions of people to suffer while the rich get richer - that’s the whole issue!

But they’ll just find a way to blame Biden still… so that’s fun

If the Senate's budget is enacted, millions will lose health insurance, millions will fall into poverty, and the national debt will increase by $3.3T.

All of this to provide a major tax cut mainly to the rich and big corporations.

There is no justification for this.

It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.
July 1, 2025 at 1:14 AM
They have no interest in bipartisanship - the GOP has completely abandoned the concept of a democracy. They’ve proven that, when given the majority, they will take control and give no attention to real concerns brought to the floor. They’ve proven their desire for fascism

Fellow liberals…

Current goal: fight against the chaos the Trump admin is ensuing and work on electing enough dems to take majority of the house and senate

Future goal: take the power back as The People and take down the oligarchy. Ban trading in Congress, demand healthcare for all, etc

This is the kind of excessive force case DOJ routinely prosecutes. They should open an investigation here, based on the misconduct not the victims status.

Today is Juneteenth, a day to celebrate & commemorate the emancipation of the last enslaved people in the United States. This day also reminds us of the injustice in our nation's history & the work we are all blessed & obliged to do to build a strong and equitable democracy that serves all Americans

Absolutely abhorrent

If you want specialized support as an LGBTQ+ person, the Trevor Project is there to help: www.thetrevorproject.org/get-help/ 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
Different people experience different kinds of trauma. The decision to shut down this particular suicide hotline isn’t just cruel and unnecessary — it will literally kill people.

Another despicable move from an administration who pampers billionaires at the expense of everyone else.
Trump administration to shut down LGBTQ youth suicide hotline
The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline will no longer use its LGBTQ youth service line starting July 17. The Trump administration says the move will "focus on serving all help seekers."
