📌Republicans are shutting down our government, our military is in our streets, perceived enemies are being prosecuted, our FBI is firing "disloyal" people at will, and the bedrock of a Democracy, our vote, is under attack.
This is a fascist regime as sure as I am typing this, and WE CANNOT SUBMIT.

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

How soon we forget.

Of the 220 hostages that survived,
all but 20 were released while Biden
was in office.

Trump got 20 hostages released.

Timeline of Hostage Releases During Biden's
Presidency:
• Late 2023: The first significant batch of around 105 hostages, mostly civilians, women, and children, was released during a ceasefire in November 2023. wikipedia
• 2024 to early 2025: Additional smaller batches, including some foreign nationals and elderly, were released intermittently through negotiations, humanitarian efforts, and Israeli military rescues.

• January 2025: A ceasefire agreement facilitated the release of approximately 30 more hostages, mainly women and civilians. the-independent
• Throughout 2024-2025: Various humanitarian releases continued, often involving exchanges for Palestinian prisoners or other diplomatic negotiations, summing to about 135 hostages.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

📌“The fact that I am American means, among other things, people can’t say, like they did about Francis, ‘he doesn’t understand the United States, he just doesn’t see what’s going on.’
“Do you not see the suffering? Is your conscience not disturbed?”

-Pope Leo in a direct rebuke of the hideous Trump

Pretty low to be called evil by a Priest … 🤦🏻‍♀️

Trump was president on January 6th, 2020. So, is he now in late-stage dementia – or does he think his followers are exactly this stupid?

She’s 💯 right.

I've all but convinced myself that all MAGA are Klansmen. Trump might be the Grand Wizard. Once you consider what the KKK would do if they were in charge, it all starts to make sense.

They want people to miss this.

It’s not normal — so I’m calling it out.

Criminal investigators generally require college degrees or advanced education.

ICE doesn’t seem to think that matters.

Let it sink in. They also have the largest budget you’ve ever seen for an enforcement agency. 🚩 🧵 ⬇️

Amber Speaks Up @amberspeaks.bsky.social · 6d

NEW
Did anyone even pay attention? 👀ICE quietly rolled out a hiring push for “Criminal Investigators” no college degree required, $50K in bonus and up to $100k salary.

Think about that.

Jeffries: This is the second time it's been shut down under Donald Trump, and he's nowhere to be found. He's got time to be on the golf course, but apparently doesn't have time to sit down with Democrats to reopen the government.
