“If the West Wing is the mind of the nation, then the East Wing is the heart.”

The East Wing is gone.

Over a century of American history, reduced to rubble.

All to appease the vanity of a corrupt authoritarian.

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

Worth a try, this strategy. Also worth writing through the voices of siblings, cousins, aunts, and uncles who didn’t survive childhood due to the same diseases.

The GOP is funded by wealthy pedos and predators.

It’s why Magic Mike sent everyone home rather than allow a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

It’s why Trump considers any push to release the files a hostile act against him.
Rep. Massie dropped a bomb: Billionaire John Paulson, top GOP donor, bankroller of the Speaker, and Trump’s campaign, is in Epstein’s black book.

This is why they’re terrified of a full release.
The truth won’t just expose Epstein.
It will expose the powerful who enabled him.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

This is SO NOT good. An extremely dangerous escalation. I couple that with the TX fascist House has 1 of our Dem members locked inside the chamber. I’ve known that the fascist or authoritarian govt we now live under in TX would spread nation wide if Trump got back in office. It didn’t take long. 🤬

I know everyone was focused on the bad ugly bill, but we have another bad ugly bill in the form of a rescission package that is in the Senate right now and it is the bill that will gut PEPFAR as well as cut federal funding for PBS and NPR

We need to raise the alarm about this right now!

Friends, the time to act is now! In the next few days, the Senate will vote on whether to claw back federal funding — this is our LAST CHANCE to stop this from happening. To help, please contact your Senators and tell them to protect public media. For easy steps to take: ProtectMyPublicMedia.org

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.

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing.

Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.

Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop.
