Chuck Schumer: you and your cadre of 8 sold out the American people. We marched at No Kings Rallies, we got out in droves last Tuesday. It means nothing to you. Shame!!

Remember how 20-year-olds barged into federal buildings and stole our most sensitive data? Shortly after, a masked army kidnapped hundreds of people and trafficked them to a concentration camp overseas. That secret police—along with the military—now occupies our cities. This is an attack on the U.S.

CEO pay is up 1,094% since 1978, while worker pay is up just 26%.

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

ICE has erected a gate to keep protesters out. They are blocking a public street, despite the Broadview Fire Department ordering ICE to tear it down.

Join us at 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM. Tell Broadview to tear this fence down.

For some reason this angers me as much as the Colbert firing
Axios: House Dems have procedural tools to try to save PBS and NPR but refuse to use them.

“House Democrats are largely shooing away the idea of trying to make Republicans miss their deadline to codify around $9 billion in DOGE cuts to public broadcasting and foreign aid, Axios has learned...” 1/
Scoop: House Democrats shrug off delay tactics to stall Mike Johnson's DOGE vote

Striking. After Texas banned abortion, ER visits for early miscarriage rose 25% and blood transfusions surged 54%.

Doctors delayed care like D&Cs out of fear of prosecution. More women nearly bled to death. buff.ly/egXhmm7

Just awful: A 75-year-old man just died in ICE custody, ICE has revealed in a notice to Congress.

But here's the rub: This man, a Cuban national, was first paroled into the US in 1966—nearly 60 years ago! They were set to deport him anyway.

Isidro Perez came to the United States from Cuba nearly 60 years ago. This is who Stephen Miller is going after now?
