IF there are mid-terms in ’26 and IF there are elections in ’28 and IF Democrats return to power - there can be no “national healing” unless there is first a reckoning.

We must finish what Sherman started. MAGA must be excised like a cancerous tumor. There must be trials. Trump and MAGA must pay.

Clearly the last decade of ineffectual decency hasn’t made a dent in his gold-plated facade.

Welcome to the fight, Governor Newsome.
Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"

They also paid themselves by stealing from the most vulnerable.
Let that sink in for a sec.

And a lot of people’s grandchildren are dying in the concentration camps you support and are going to die from losing healthcare due to the budget you voted for. Fuck off with your pearl clutching.
That is an absolute bullshit cop out.

These are my grandchildren and you are justifying terrifying them.

Now I know who you really are.
It’s weird how people want to redress their government official when they do deeply unpopular and harmful things with their vote.

You could just come talk to people in an in-person town hall, then they wouldn’t feel the need to try to get your attention with signs and slightly raised voices.

And they told us they would. They’ve declared war on us all.

I look forward to another unapologetic badass in Congress, no matter how few we have.

Mayor @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social control your police department
They tried lie about an ICE presence. MPD assisted with closing off the area. This is completely wrong.

Just because they got pardons for J6 doesn’t give unidentifiable ICE thugs the right to abduct our neighbors.

Resist and shame them, always.
This is how it’s done!

FRIDAY: South Park, San Diego, neighbors weren’t having it. When ICE rolled up on an Italian restaurant in unmarked cars and started grabbing workers, the community hit the streets.

@schumer.senate.gov, people can’t eat a letter expressing your disappointment on this one.

If you’re not willing to do everything you can procedurally to slow this bill the fuck down and force your colleagues to admit what they’re voting for, you’re complicit in killing the most vulnerable.
AOC: When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this

Buttigieg: I’m not even an elected official or running for anything— I’m here. I can’t help but notice a lot of people who are elected officials aren’t. There’s a reason for that. They don’t want to have to explain this stuff

Pope Leo XIV delivered the homily during mass at the Sistine Chapel today after being elected the 267th pope of the Catholic Church.

He had two women reading scripture at the service.

Cue the incel meltdown.

Genuinely has anyone *ever* been owned so badly as a man who converts to a new religion as an adult and sorta makes it his whole thing only to see the literal head of that religion rebuke his entire deal and then they choose the NEXT head of the religion specifically because he doesn't like you

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies

2. Continue building union power

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Just to be clear, Elon Musk bought the presidency, used DOGE to kill investigations into his businesses, gave himself billions in govt contracts, found no waste, then bailed.

As a German I will forever be grateful to all who fought for the liberation of Europe.

But as a historian I am looking at front pages today and must wonder: What is the point of remembering #VEDay 80 years on, what is the point of our thanks, when we are failing to protect the sacrifices made? 🧵
