AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Ronald Reagan said it. #NoKings tomorrow 10/18

Speak Truth...

As of today, import taxes (aka tariffs) have hit their highest level since the Great Depression. Americans are now expected to pay an average of 18.3% more for imported products. Remember when Trump ran on lowering costs?

If you thought Superman was right for fighting fascists in the 1970s but now you think he’s wrong for fighting fascists in the 2020s, then Superman didn’t go woke… you went fascist.

Tax the rich instead of stealing our Social Security.

PASS IT ON 🇺🇸

20 minutes ago here in Venetie, Alaska, the skies erupted in a beautiful auroral substorm. Here is just one of many real-time videos I recorded during the show to give you a sense of how fast and dynamic the aurora can move.

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.

Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.

That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.

It's Fascism 101.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

Look, if you believe in kings, then let’s be honest—you can’t call yourself a patriot. You just can’t. You don’t get to wrap yourself in the flag of a country that was quite literally founded on rejecting a monarchy while, at the same time, wishing for one. That’s not how this works.

A really important email from my friend Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social . As he says "this is a 5 alarm fire."

America is under attack right now.

Donald Trump replacing a black four-star general with a white three-star general as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is everything MAGA claims they hate about DEI: giving a less qualified person the job based on their race, not their resume.

Here we are again. Issuing “policy” via social media. Official press releases referring to his posts. Incompetent staff that can’t even spell the country in question correctly. It’s Colombia.

I feel like Orwell was holding back.
