In the 1950s, LGBTQ+ public servants were pushed out of government due to their identity.

As HRC’s Jonathan Lovitz illustrates, the recent dismissal of David Maltinsky for displaying a Pride flag is a warning sign that those days may return. https://bit.ly/49Fc18x

AOC: And when Republicans use a legislative mechanism to gut the American health care system, we have to use a legislative mechanism in order to restore it and to fight for it.

Dear @apnews.com

The republicans control congress. Democrats did not vote down anything. If the GOP wanted to fund the government, they could have changed the rules to pass a CR with a simple majority like they did 11 days ago to approve 48 trump appointees at once.

Fix your headline.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance.

Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn.

We have been sent here to fight for people.
AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance

However, they are weaker than they look…

WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.

The right is pushing for doxxing of anybody making insensitive Kirk comments.

They are actively reaching out to employers in masse..

People are losing jobs and/or being disciplined..

Fox News host Brian Kilmeade suggested the solution to homelessness in America is involuntary lethal injection.

Nothing says "pro-life" quite like murdering homeless people.

MSNBC President Rebecca Kutler folded like a cheap fucking lawn chair to the far-right media mob. In media history, we've never seen so many executives become so feckless in the face of a fascist authoritarian Trump regime. Kutler's actions in firing Matthew Dowd were shameful.

As Americans and as New Yorkers, we'll never forget September 11, 2001. First responders sacrificed everything in the course of their service. Strangers saved each other's lives. The worst day brought out the best in so many.

I'm thinking of everyone mourning, and remembering, today.
