Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Hero, this is the guy all those Americans with their guns claim they'll be during a mass shooting, but never are. This man actually disarmed the mass shooting terrorist loser while being himself unarmed

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

What do you call a political system where those in power refuse to seat a duly elected member of the opposition party? Not a democracy that’s for certain.

If you are one of the almost 100 Dems who voted to honor the guy who said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake,

don’t bother asking Black people to vote for you, donate to you or canvass for you next year.

Don’t bother.

Please.

And don’t be shocked if you get a primary opponent.

I have been struck with something. We all mourn the death of Charlie Kirk. It absolutely was pure evil.

But there have been an immense amount of school shootings… against children.. and the GOP doesn’t show 1/456th of the remorse they demand America shows for Charlie

Before knowing all the facts, voices on the right are now exploiting the tragic death of Charlie Kirk & calling for all-out war on the left. This is sad, but not surprising, at a time when we should all be denouncing political violence. They were not so upset when Minn. Democrats were assassinated.

This is why it's so important for California to fight back. This is why we need to pass Prop 50 in November.
President Trump privately pushed Indiana’s top GOP lawmakers to redraw their state’s congressional maps this week, part of an increasingly urgent effort to help Republicans preserve their narrow majority in next year’s midterm elections.

Trump’s first term brought a manufacturing recession. Now his reckless tariffs are making Americans worse off, again.

In the same week we have a storied news bureau agreeing to the installation of a government commissar and an Ivy league university taking dictation from the White House. A decade ago I'd have laughed out loud at the suggestion our core institutions could be this weak & unprincipled.

Kristi Noem didn’t approve FEMA rescue teams for over 72 hours after the Texas floods, following a rule she imposed that required her personal sign-off on any operation over $100K.

This is inexcusable. She should resign.

Reports indicate that several other red states are now considering opening camps similar to the one in Florida. Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina publicly requested a facility, tweeting, “Dear DHS: We’ve got a swamp and a dream. Let’s talk. South Carolina’s gators are ready.”

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Appreciate @motherjones.com covering the story on the removal of the memorial wall. Honestly, this is what I expected from Trump. I am more angry at every elected enabler. Hoping starting with the election this November that America shows how pissed we are.

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises.

But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up.

It's up to us to demand something better.

Only the cult will think that a migrant did this. Maga loves poorly educated people. Scary and true
It’s interesting that secret service told reporters the guy who stole Noem’s purse what a white male, then they wait a week and DHS says it was an undocumented migrant but refuses to give any other details.
