You know what to do ‼️

Trump in 2008: Anyone who invades the Middle East under false pretenses should be impeached.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨 HOLY SHIT.

A U.S. citizen just testified before the Senate that ICE agents ignored his passport, detained him, placed him on suicide watch, and released him WITHOUT charges or explanation.

Read that again.

An AMERICAN CITIZEN says he showed agents his passport multiple times…

and still ended up locked in a cell under 24/7 lights, stripped naked, wearing a hospital gown while guards watched him constantly.

His family reportedly had no idea where he was.

Then after all of that?

No charges.
No explanation.
Just released.

This is cruelty. This greed by and for the powerful. This is un-American .

An estimated 2.5 million children have lost food assistance since Trump's Big Beautiful Bill passed last July.

More details in the thread 😮

I don’t think we have a functioning CDC anymore—RFK Jr’s CDC is now asking volunteers to goto airports to screen passengers for Ebola… to stand in line at airports to look for sick people… unpaid.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

The Republican Party quietly deleted their own ad attacking Ken Paxton's record on crime... because Paxton is now the Republican Party's nominee to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate.

Figured if the ad is important enough to delete, it's important enough to see...

[Henry Winkler @hwinkler4real]

this seemed and seems real now

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Generation after generation, men and women put on the uniform knowing the risk — and went anyway knowing they might not come home. Knowing their families would carry that for the rest of their lives.

To the families still carrying that weight — I see you. The pain doesn’t go away, but neither does the pride.

Freedom has never been guaranteed. It has to be earned, defended, and sometimes paid for in the hardest way imaginable. Today on Memorial Day, we stop, we slow down, and we remember those who did.

We honor them.

We thank them.

And we work hard to live up to what they died for. Keep the democracy they believed in worth believing in. That is the ultimate tribute for their sacrifice.

And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.

A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.

Lets make this viral again 👇

[Annie @AnnieForTruth]

I agree! This is the most corrupt administration ever. 😡

[Fred Wellman @FPWellman]

What an incel loser.

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

The proof is in the data.

[Elizabeth Weight @RepEWeight]

Besides continually reporting the corruption, let's support each other in being strong Americans - persisting as voters, in active resistance, teaching truth about representative government.

Harrison Ford: “Humanity is a part of nature, not above it. We need cultural change. We need to extend social justice. We need to respect and elevate the indigenous people that are being marginalized, and in many cases, killed in cold blood. The world you’re stepping into, the world my generation left you, is a real mess”

This young boy in Minnesota came to a City Council meeting to speak about how ICE is affecting him & his Latino friends at school.He described how afraid they are when they just hear the name ICE & worry constantly whether they will be next even though they’re Americans. So Sad

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents in Brentwood, New York were caught, on a security camera, walking through a backyard where CHILDREN live… with their guns already drawn.

In the video, one agent walks directly up to the back door holding a gun, knocks, and yells “POLICE.”

Another agent is standing nearby with his weapon pointed directly at the door.

Then another agent walks towards the house, from the backyard, after appearing to be looking around the private property.

At no point do they announce a warrant, or claim there is an emergency situation.

Just federal agents with guns drawn… surrounding a home where kids live.

Federal agents are NOT allowed to just enter private property, surround homes, and intimidate families without judicial authorization. A warrant is supposed to be signed by a judge, specifically describe the place being searched, and be presented when demanded.

And unless there is an immediate threat to life or public safety, pointing guns at a residence during a nonviolent immigration operation can very quickly cross into excessive force territory under the Constitution.

This is exactly why constitutional protections exist in the first place.

Because if the government can creep through backyards with guns drawn, targeting homes without presenting warrants, while children are inside…

then those rights stop meaning anything at all.

Thank you Judge.

Everyone needs to watch @Justinjpearson's floor speech from the TN State House.

"Today, you will take the only Black-majority district from us. But I want you to know: No matter what you do, no matter how much you try to break us & make us bend & quit — we will still be here."

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

Here is to beauty, despite all the calamity.
Here is to moments that stir the soul and awaken our shared humanity.

Here is to wonder.
Here is to surprise.
Here is to the small miracles that reopen our eyes.

Here is to laughter that lightens heavy days,
To awe and connection in unexpected ways.

And here is to all the things, simple, sacred, and true
That remind, us despite the challenges, life is a gift and we are lucky to live it through.
