This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇

Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it.

Thanks for naming the douchbags & bagettes that participated in this racist garbage. May they live in perpetual shame.

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California.

Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

So very proud of the people in my small town, even though it is historically red, we had over 375 people in our No Kings rally. Lots of fun and support. The driver bye's really honked their horn enthusiastically. Made for a great day.

The Supreme Court is expected to run out of federal funding today, according to Patricia McCabe, the court’s public information officer. Personally, I can't think of a better way to serve justice in America.

They're giving all this money to Argentina so they have a safe place to go when the international trials start.

Mike Johnson sputtering that it's no big deal that he hasn't sworn in Grivalja yet, it's such a small stupid thing, why are you people still asking about it, I can do it anytime, but no, I'm not going to do it now, or later, or anytime soon, there's no big deal here, shut up, stop asking about it

They are running ICE ads.

F them.

Is Spotify running ICE recruitment ads? Here are the facts

The advertising "is part of a broad campaign the US government is running" across various platforms — not just Spotify, a spokesperson told Snopes.

#NoKings in the town of Twisp WA. The town itself is about 500 people, today neighboring towns in our valley converged together with a rough estimate of 800 in a red part of our state. @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social @gtconway.bsky.social

Spotify is running ICE ads. I went to cancel on mobile and saw that this isn’t allowed on mobile. They make you cancel on desktop. You think that’s gonna stop me, Spotify? I will erase you and forget you ever existed.

THOU SHALT CANCEL SPOTIFY!!!

Prop 50 is not about Democrats versus Republicans — it’s about complacency versus democracy.

Donald Trump is trying to steal this election from us. We must fight back and hold him accountable.

Mike Johnson, name appropriate, is probably the weakest, most pathetic, childish, least effective, least patriotic, least decent, least integral, least sincere...SPEAKER in all our history. To say the least.
