You can’t make this up. The government held a few meetings on the fight against Antifa: a person or group actively opposing fascism (source: Webster dictionary)

How is it that they don’t want to be called fascist but they adamantly fight against anti-fascists…

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

Trump claimed he would get grocery prices down on day one of his administration. This is a price check of month six. All prices are from FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data) a tool used by the federal government. So far Trump hasn't made much progress.

Dems should fight on every front.

If Texas steals 5 seats, Dem states should redistrict 30 GOP members out of their districts.

We should insist DOJ release the entire Epstein File.

Not only shouldn't we bring knives to a gun fight, if they bring pistols, we should bring machine guns.

Trump’s Big Ugly Bill allocates $170.7 billion to target immigrants

With nearly $30 billion for ICE and $45 billion more to build concentration camps

Meanwhile Republicans are dismantling Medicaid and SNAP-to give billionaires a tax break

Maybe THAT’S why the crowd chanted to vote out Mike Flood

We need to call out the threat of authoritarianism in America.

This isn’t about left or right.
It’s about liberty vs. control.
Militarized streets aren’t freedom.
Silence isn’t peace. Together we are one.

Our neighbors are protected if we stand for their rights. So are ours. #HappyIndependenceDay

Funny how Republicans decry vote counting after elections—but have no problem sitting on a “no” vote for hours after a resolution deadline because their “moral compass” is having a nervous breakdown.

Donald Trump’s deployment of the military in Los Angeles over the objection of California leaders is an abuse of power and a dangerous escalation.

It’s what you would see in authoritarian states and it must stop.

Americans have the right to speak out and peacefully protest.
