These 95 won't fight for any of you. Remember their names.

They voted to honor a man who said Black people were better off during segregation and Islam is the sword used by the left to slit the throat of Western civilization.

Primary them, cull the party, support and elevate the fighters.
95 democrats, including @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social voted to "honor" the life of charlie kirk, who called for joe biden to be killed and said black women like justice ketanji brown jackson are unqualified affirmative action hires.

shame.

Wow. This is awesome.
THANK YOU COLIN Colin Kaepernick is funding an independent autopsy for Trey Reed, a 21-year-old student found hanging from a tree at Delta State University, after police initially told his family he died in his dorm. The move aims to ensure transparency and accountability. (nypost.com)

When in actuality, they're doing everything they can to stop ordering our hardware.
Trump on the Russian invasion in Ukraine: “We are not spending any money on the War. The war is being funded by NATO and NATO is buying our equipment, we are actually making money on that war because they are buying our equipment .”

the fact that a sitting US president is talking about antifascism being terrorism should tell you a lot about what he thinks his own government represents

"Conservative" influencer is wholly inaccurate.

We are not facing down "conservatism."

Time for some common sense gun laws. Democrats should introduce a bill named the Charlie Kirk common sense gun reform bill and make every Republican vote for it.

Gun control would reduce or prevent mass shootings and political violence like we witnessed today with the murder of Charlie Kirk.

But MAGA don't want it. So...here we are.

But imagine if it happened on the same day that an appeals court affirmed E.Jean Carroll’s $83M judgment against Trump for sexual assault.

Oh just a moment. We’ve got breaking news…
imagine if this happened on the same day when Trump gave a public speech where he said domestic violence isn't a crime

RFK Jr. just said he sees “no successes” in the very health agencies he runs.

That’s absurd.

The CDC helped eradicate smallpox, combat HIV/AIDS, cut smoking, and save millions of lives with vaccines.

Undermining that legacy doesn’t protect Americans—it puts us all at risk.

No hyperbole this is what the Supreme Court just authorized ICE to do.
September 8, 2025 at 6:36 PM
ICE are Stormtroopers.
There are many reasons why you should NEVER vote for Republicans again, particularly for President.

They have stacked the court with fascists who no longer defend our Constitution.

Arresting people at random is what secret police in fascist regimes do.
