I agree, but we need to figure out how to get rural voters to actually vote in their self interest

These *men* showed up at this market and grabbed the owner for no reason dressed in plain clothes with no identification.

They threw him to the ground as a Combat Vet shopping there calls the police on them! There was no warrant and he was a citizen.

They supported a literal felon over a career prosecutor for President, but I doubt The FP will call that out.

🚨🚨🚨A 15 year old opens the door to the vehicle, but ICE monsters proceed to throw her around like a rag doll — because they can. Notice the police drive away, just out of view of the camera. Uploaded ~ 2 hours ago. 1/2

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

I’ve never seen a politician get away with more bad faith decisions under the guise of moderation than Susan Collins. It’s remarkable.

When Republicans are pre-butting a pro-democracy rally like No Kings and making shit up left and right to scare people, you know they're losing and in panic mode.

It’s heartbreaking that the richest country in the world needs food banks to feed its people but it’s unbelievable that our billionaire politicians have forced our military to feed themselves and their families from food banks.

ICE Gestapo at work.

We need our version of Nuremberg trials, the sooner the better. We will not survive as a democracy without that.

Trump, Noem, Miller, and every one of these goons must face consequences for this Nazi shit.

Just astounding, but also a reminder to support independent media. Collectively we can change the future of news media by supporting outlets doing responsible journalism.

gunderson4.bsky.social @gunderson4.bsky.social · 5d

It’s amazing how neither candidate has talked about education, crime, transit, support for seniors…or really anything other than taxes and energy costs in their ads. Maybe that’s where we’re at as a society but it’s really depressing.
