I think the shame is winning now.

He'll still lose to Collins over this. But also, he's terrible.

We need fewer Platners manufactured by the Bernie brigade and far more Barbara Mikulskis. Bring back the workhorses of the Democratic party - the boring bureaucrats, the school marms, the no-nonsense women. Sigh.

TO stop this nightmare of an administration, all workers in America need to stop working and stay on strike until enough Republican US Representatives and Senators immediately resign to create a democratic majority in both houses of Congress. We The People have always had the power -it is our LABOR.

On a yellow parchment background, calligraphic black writing reads: We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

We The People is especially large and emboldened.

Speaker Johnson gave Trump the gavel because he couldn't lick his hemorrhoids.

Because Speaker Johnson couldn't lick Trump's hemorrhoids on live TV.

Surrounded by slobbering sycophants, Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, surrenders the gavel to Trump who is the only person who is seated.

It would be a real shame if people parked their cars, laden with American flags, everywhere in DC and gridlocked it before Saturday.

Absolutely horrendous. DOGE wasn't created legally to begin with. Freeze your credit reports.

Democracy Docket @democracydocket.com · Jun 6

BREAKING: In a 6-3 ruling, the Supreme Court grants DOGE access to millions of Americans' personal data, including social security numbers and banking information. In her dissent, Justice Jackson warned of "grave privacy risks for millions of Americans."

Happy Pride Month! 🌈 Each day in June, I’ll be sharing the story of one LGBTQ+ person whose life and work helped shape our world. From activism to art, science to culture, let’s honor the brilliance, resilience, and humanity of our community. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 #PrideMonth #LGBTQHistory

MARSHA P.
JOHNSON
Marsha P. Johnson was a Black transgender woman, drag queen, anod activist who played a vital role in the early LGBTQ+ rights movement. She was a key figure in the Stonewall uprising of 1969, which ignited modern LGBTQ+ activism. Marsha co-founded the Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (STAR) with Sylvia Rivera, providing support and housing for homeless trans youth in New York City. Her legacy continues to inspire generations of queer and trans activists around the world.
"No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us."
- Marsha P. Johnson

This man was courageous enough to stand up to Trump and Vance.

So it's important to post this message and photo to 27 million people.

Don't just "like" it -- that only means that YOU'VE seen it.

Postb it, blow it up and get it out there!

🧵Update: In Worcester, MA, ICE dragged a mother away from her baby & family—without identifying themselves or showing a warrant. She’s now in San Antonio. The community tried to stop them. They were met with force. Read it. Share it. Never forget it

If you're looking for a novel on #GenX motherhood, order my book, Epistolary by Lisa Lambros.

One reader was so unnerved by a character's question, "Are you mom enough?" she couldn't finish the story, tho she liked it.

Caution!You may be as engrossed in it. #mothersday
