They like cops so much that all we’re getting is cops. No roads, no bridges, no school funding, no culture money, just a bouquet of different types of cops

Today is the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade, which enshrined a woman's right to choose into law.

But four years ago, Republicans tore it away.

House Democrats won't stop fighting to protect reproductive freedom.

Please share this video widely. Rule of law has broken down, dangerous dehumanization is now government policy.
Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

The Treasury Secretary says no big deal if the world stops buying U.S. Treasuries.

It’s a huge deal for our country’s financial health and for Americans who would pay higher interest rates on car loans and mortgages.

Why is he spouting nonsense? To suck up to a wannabe dictator.

It's critical that in the coming weeks Democratic leaders in Congress spend more time with historians of fascism and global leaders who have fought authoritarian regimes than they spend with their data bros counseling cowardice.

For anyone thinks we are winning rn they aren't paying attention.

"You're asking me about something that the president just said... He's never going to implement it... We should talk instead about what he's doing... Every time we get distracted by what he talks about rather than what he does... he destroys and he redistributes to the rich."

"Donald Trump now genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him. Also, he really is maniacally, unhealthily obsessive about the Nobel Prize."

"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
