As an American, I can tell you this is true. We all grew up having to deal with a bully or two in school, fearing, wishing for help from adults and bottling up our outrage. We loath the bully.
It wasn’t just the Europeans who were outraged about Trump’s threats over Greenland — it was Americans, too.

That’s what U.S. Senators Thom Tillis and Jeanne Shaheen argued at our #POLITICOPub on the sidelines of #MSC2026 👇

This is why they must have badges with IDs. This is why they cannot wear masks.

ICE sill be at the polls checking ids and harassing anyone who doesn’t support trump. Just my opinion.

Well said
Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is about—we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.

I'm a poll worker. We verify u info in our computers when u vote

It's a good system and only about .00005% have issues
I’m tired of the ignorance of voters saying “idk what the big deal is about requiring id to vote”🤦🏽‍♀️ ppl take a civics class & understand the 24th Amendment makes poll taxes ILLEGAL! Ah yes that word illegal. You can’t make ppl PAY for a document to vote… it violates the constitution, so no SAVE Act!

NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR "GETTING EMOTIONAL"

You SHOULD "get emotional" about this shit!
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social
