This is the party thats supposed to, *checks notes*, stop fascism?

Oh, but if a citizen who feels disenfranchised or unrepresented by the 2-party system decides to vote 3rd party (or not vote at all), then they're the problem?

Ffs, how can y'all hardcore dems be so fucking clueless..
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

Susan Collins is cool with Trump taking food stamps money away from Maine as part of his gutter racism campaign to slime immigrants and immigration.

Doubt this plays well with Mainers but MAGA loves it and Collins's first rule is that MAGA gets what MAGA wants, Maine values be damned. #MEpolitics
Susan Collins says Maine should be ‘transparent’ with SNAP data amid Trump’s threat
States fighting the request have said they verify SNAP eligibility and never share large swaths of sensitive data

Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

President Trump has pardoned former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was serving a 45-year prison sentence for drug trafficking.

"Meanwhile, fishermen on boats in the Caribbean who we have never been tried or charged with anything are shot and killed from the air."

One reason I miss living in Portland Maine.. Pedestrians always have the right of way and there are tons of all way stops and 10mph areas, especially around schools and playgrounds. Even if you aren't in a crosswalk you had the right of way, and cars would gladly and cheerfully stop for you to cross
and 20mph is the Moderate Option lmao, my radical but obviously correct opinion is that residential areas should be all-way-stops only and like 10mph

The demands being distributed by the flyer & petition were not in anyway unreasonable.

1. Continue to support residents affected by the fire
2. Establish an independent commission
3. Re-evaluate construction safety guidelines
4. Hold the elected officials who are accountable for this disaster
Inmediahk reports that HK university student Miles Kwan, who was seen handing out fliers linking to a petition demanding an independent investigation and accountability for the Tai Po fire was detained and taken to the police station. The online petition and related media has since been deleted.

To recap—Trump pardoned Juan Orlando Hernández, who was convicted of receiving millions in bribes & partnering with cocaine traffickers to flood American streets with drugs, but to protect American streets from being flooded with drugs, he has to mass murder innocent fisherman with impunity.

Got it

The one bright spot in this otherwise enraging story is that the Redmond City Council ordered Flock "Safety" cameras turned of.

EVERY CITY SHOULD FOLLOW SUIT. TURN THEM OFF. DISABLE THEM PERMANENTLY.

Kids as young as 3 and 4 years old are being hauled into immigration court in Seattle and read their rights.

They’re being told they have the right to an attorney despite having no capacity to hire one or understand what that means.

As Rep Jayapal says, that’s not due process… it’s a farce.

ending the TPS for Myanmar is an unmitigated humanitarian disaster which will end up sending people to torture and probable death.
This is really concerning. The Junta in Myanmar will arrest, conscript or kill many of those the US may return.
We honestly cannot understand how the US admin can say the situation in Myanmar is improving when ALL EVIDENCE IS TO THE CONTRARY.
🚨"The Trump administration announced it will cancel temporary asylum for around 10,000 #Myanmar nationals living in the US, despite the country being ruled by a military dictatorship that has a record of executing dissidents."
