To be clear, curtailing immigration doesn’t stop gun violence. The guns are already here, as are the VAST majority of the shooters.

Curtailing immigration is just cruel. As is refusing to do anything that actually addresses gun violence. Two sides of the same violent coin.

Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.

C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

This should set off alarms. China didn’t just catch up in AI- it scaled faster, trained younger, and plugged itself into global research networks, including ours. This isn’t hype- ignoring it would be a strategic mistake. #AI #China #NationalSecurity

The U.S. has more civilian owned guns than any other country in the world.

It also has the largest number of mass shootings by several orders of magnitude.

The argument that owning more guns will magically stop mass shootings, is a deeply flawed argument and a lie.

The End.

Donald Trump knows he will never earn or deserve the respect of the American people enough that monuments, buildings, institutions, or memorials will be named after him, so he’s taking other’s laurels and just adding his name himself.

Doesn’t matter. When he’s gone, we will erase him from it all.

Trump is shitting on America because he has nothing but hate and resentment for his lacking the ability to do anything notable. He didn’t invent anything, he scammed people who worked for him, he stole by not paying taxes, he has nothing to show for his existence but fuckups.

School shootings ARE NOT & NEVER WILL BE a thing that "just happens" in the United States!!! Gun violence is a CRISIS & we need to speak about it accordingly!

Mass shootings should NEVER be accepted as part of American culture, no matter how much this administration wants to embrace them as such!

We did it! We got enough signatures to force a vote on extending ACA subsidies. Imagine how furious Mike Johnson is going to be when we pass this!

Now is the time to pressure your Members of Congress and help us get it done!
Tell Congress: Demand Speaker Johnson hold a vote IMMEDIATELY on the ACA tax credit extension

The orange felon is moving to rename the Kennedy Center after himself in another move to both attack the Arts and insult President John F. Kennedy.

I truly from the depths of my soul hate this evil sadistic scumbag. If only he had been sent to jail where he belongs.

IUPAT President @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social is right:

Temporary Protected Status recipients are rigorously vetted, pay taxes, and do work in critical industries. They are part of our communities and our unions—they deserve respect and protection.

America’s unions will keep fighting for them.

Tonight the Convicted FElon gave a Primetime speech which I'm so glad I didn't watch or listen to. From what I have heard so far it was a total disaster. Massive lies, racism & rambling throughout. When will people wake up & get this FElon out?

ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security. It's a "papers-please" America where freedom is conditional and innocence comes last.

Anyone notice that Speaker Johnson subtly dismissed Congress today so that they won't be in session on Friday?

Hmmm, anything big set to happen on Friday that might upset people?

After the Epstein Files are released we need to demand Jim Jordan release the ENTIRE transcript of Jack Smith's closed door testimony today before Jordan's committee. He will try to not release or partially release it because it emphasizes the shit bomber's guilty criminal actions!
