@democrats.org just so we’re clear… I supported the DNC in support of @kamalaharris.com & opposition to 47. I will NEVER join the DNC bc you celebrate #BillClinton after the #MonicaLewinsky scandal WHILE #Monica’s life was destroyed! This is the Patriarchy that always blames & denounces women.

Billionaire Michael Bloomberg—who famously forced women to sign NDAs to prevent them from disclosing sexual abuse and harassment—just donated $5,000,000 to 11X credibly accused sexual abuser Andrew Cuomo, all in a desperate bid to prevent Mamdani from winning.

This is what corruption looks like.

Senator Klobuchar calls it what it is: a big, beautiful betrayal.

This bill gives $400,000 tax breaks to millionaires while kicking 16 million people off their health care.

Working families lose care so the wealthy can get richer. #HandsOffMedicaid

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process.

But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things.

That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

Last weekend we saw perhaps the largest protest in US history.

Imagine what that will look like after the US joins a war that nobody wants, and US troops, embassies and commercial shipping come under attack.

His rally around the flag strategy could turn into regime-toppling civil unrest.
New poll result: “Do you think the US military should get involved in the conflict between Israel and Iran?”
Yes — 16%
No — 60%

"The propaganda exercise was swallowed whole by the dull of mind and incurious of spirit, helpless sheep..."

I have never heard of a better description of the MAGA cult...
North Korea reported on Trump’s birthday parade and they are brutal with their descriptions.

‘The inferior leader pictured here looking old, confused and tired sat next to an expensive prostitute and a drunk television host for the duration of the parade.’ 😭

This is a recount from a reporter who attended Trump’s parade. You should check it out.

She describes Trump’s supporters enduring “real misery” before the parade even started.

Contrast that w/the millions of us who enthusiastically endured heat and rain to protest Trump and stand up for democracy.

Just a reminder that white nationalists are the biggest threat to this country and the “immigrant crime wave” is a far-right lie.

The danger in this country , as always, comes from white men who are terrified someone will take away their power, their property, or their guns.

Happy No King’s Day.
