"We don't take an oath to a king, or queen, or a tyrant or a dictator. And we don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator. We take an oath to the Constitution. We are willing to die to protect it".~General Mark Milley
@RpsAgainstTrump@grok FACT CHECKED by Trump’s BLS🤦🏻♀️
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows the Black/African American unemployment rate hit a record low of 4.7% in 2023.
In 12/2025 it was higher-the Black unemployment rate was 7.5 %
5/2026 at 6.5%—not the best on record (series since 1972).
Trump's National Guard surge violently detains U.S. citizen—for holding a sign.
She was standing on her own front porch.
3 soldiers block her from entering her home—tackle her to ground.
"Help! Help! You're breaking my arm!"
she cries.
"You came onto my property—you have no authority to detain me!"
Trump Administration announced a "surge" in the number of National Guard and ICE agents in DC to at least 5,000 last month.
On at least three additional occasions in the last two weeks, National Guard soldiers have handcuffed and detained people in DC.
This footage was submitted to FilmThePoliceDC on June 2.
Incident occurred in the Truxton Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C.
This is the dumbest tweet ever written by an American, an astonishing achievement given the depth of competition for that accolade.
It's hard to know where to even start.
I'll go from the top and try wade through it, to arrive at where the focus should already be. /1
Applebaum: Trump is using a specific language from the 1930s: “enemies within,” “enemies of the people,” migrants and political opponents as “vermin,” migrants “poisoning the blood” of Americans.
That language comes from Hitler, Stalin and the Stasi. 1/
@NassauExec U r trying so hard, u r almost there:
specific language from the 1930s is next: “enemies within,” “enemies of the people,” migrants and political opponents as “vermin,” migrants “poisoning the blood” of Americans.
That language comes from Hitler, Stalin, Stasi & Trump.
@NassauExec You are not standing in their way.
You are a street corner Barker, telling everyone who stops and listens ‘the sky is falling”. No facts, just attacks, and you never offer solutions because the sky is fine.

Jimmy Dore tells Tucker Carlson that Thomas Massie's primary loss in Kentucky is proof the United States is not a democracy but an oligarchy run by international billionaires who sit above the government.
Dore points to the 2015 Princeton study showing the wishes of 90% of Americans are never reflected in legislation, only the top 10% are.
JIMMY DORE: “How dare we preach democracy around the world and tell people that the people in China are oppressed when we obviously don't have democracy here.”
JIMMY DORE: “In China, the government sits above capital, and so the economy works for the people. But in the United States, capital is above the government, and so the economy doesn't work for the people. It works for a handful of international globalist billionaires.”
JIMMY DORE: “Which is why we have homelessness everywhere. We have the biggest prison population in the world. We still go bankrupt just to get educated. You get bankrupt when you get sick. And we live in a surveillance state.”
JIMMY DORE: “We're like China, except we have more street crime and slower trains. And we get lectured constantly in the most self-righteous way by the worst people.”
Massie was the last man in Congress voting the Constitution as written. @jimmy_dore is right to say it out loud.
Ben Meiselas: Donald Trump's DOJ is arguing that the US government has the right to destroy the Statue of Liberty, and there would be no recourse for any courts or for Congress, because once you destroy it, if you can rush to destroy it the way the Trump regime destroyed the East Wing, there's no more remedy that you have. This is real.
@NassauExec It’s just a passed Bill, not signed into law.
NY STATE LAW PROCESS 101–you are unqualified to be even considered for Governor as you focus only on building on the infrastructure of right-wing online outrage.
@NassauExec The Bill hasn’t been signed by Hochul as you go off on numerous tangent posts on your political irritant.
This is not a major issue for the people of NY.
What r major issues is ⬆️housing costs/gas/groceries/health insurance. Taken from many. U r unqualified as u play politics.
@RepTenney Suddenly u r overly concerned resources reach the people? Not a protest when Trump & Doge stripped them away, u voted for the Big Beautiful Bill that helped the wealthy & 👏the tax break for us of $500 to $800 a year is as tariffs and 🇮🇷 war wipes it out & more wth high costs.🤫
@PolymarketIntel Howdy Doody is lying. Following his return to office, the GDP growth rate has averaged 1.9%.
The most recent figures from the Commerce Department show quarterly annualized GDP growth at 1.6%.
