Trump is going after Jack Smith, Andrew Weissman, Lisa Monaco and Adam Schiff for investigating his illegal activities. He wants anyone who has tried to hold him accountable locked up. The Republican Senators are all complicit.

I admit I only know the broad outlines, the biggest stories of our own Revolution. We all learn about the Boston Tea Party, but I hadn't heard about the British retaliation of cracking down even harder, The Intolerable Acts. Thanks for sharing!

The Intolerable Acts are what caused the American Revolution. I feel the things trump is doing are eerily similar and tyrannical in nature. Although they aren’t exactly the same, they are just as intolerable.

Honor those who stood up for American values.

Hang the plaque on the wall to honor the officers who defended the Capitol on J/6.

A law was passed a long time ago to place a plaque on the wall to honor the officers who defended the Capitol on J6. The plaque is done and has been ready to hang up for a long time. MAGA Mike refuses to comply with that law, which is a slap in the face to every officer. bsky.app/profile/atru...

We the people aren’t terrorists, but ICE agents !

Peaceful demo. NO KINGS:
Know your rights, memorize emergency numbers, prepare your response to ICE.

If they hunt you ore your neighbors today who will it be tomorrow? A society that normalizes fear puts everyone in danger.

Line in the Street - The only film about the landmark 2018 Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision which overturned and cured a blatantly gerrymandered voting district map - because the gerrymandered map plainly violated STATE CONSTITUTIONAL VOTING RIGHTS

Gerrymandering silences voters. The PA Supreme Court stuck down one of the most rigged maps in America & restored fair representation for Black communities around Philly.
Now billionaire extremists want revenge. Don’t let them win

I've said it from the time of his last campaign...he told rally goers to vote "just this one last time and you will never have to vote again...it will all be fixed beautifully." #47 has no intention of leaving the WH...dictators don't leave.

Why are they doing everything possible to protect pedophiles?

It’s time for Speaker Johnson to quit stalling & swear in Democrat Adelita Grijalva to secure the final vote on releasing the Epstein files.

Trump’s witch-hunt !

Lindsey Halligan, appointed by Trump as U.S. prosecutor, just 3 days after her nomination, she indicts James Comey. As ex‑insurance lawyer and former beauty queen, with zero criminal experience. If she win or lose, Trump wants only headlines.

It’s easy to lose sight of how radical the MAGA agenda is by focusing on each action in isolation. Only by glancing at the entirety of what Trump and Hegseth have wrought can one see what a far-reaching assault they are mounting on the apolitical professionalism of the US military. bit.ly/47aHw7J

The "Young Republicans" go up to age 40. So not everyone in the group is young & wet behind the years. Not that that level of hate born of imagined supremacy is an excuse!

Trumps clan life-style, private jets, lavish villas, ultra-exclusive clubs, and exotic vacations.

According to Forbes (May 2024) Trump’s net fortune has risen to $7.5 billion, Donald T. Jr. & Eric $25 million each, Tiffany $10 million, Ivanka & Jared $1.1 billion combined…???
