The image below is AI slop from Twitter, NOT an actual rendering of the White House ballroom.

Real renderings here: www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-st...

Fake AI-generated image of new ballroom directly adjoining the White House rather than separated by a colonnade.

How does someone consider himself a communist, like Graham Platner, and not have that Nazi tattoo covered up or removed?

He needs to drop out.

Trump and GOP are planning on forever power. I still don't think people realize it. You need Democrats who are willing to step up and fight.

Hello, I’m from Gaza.
We’re living through hell
homes destroyed,memories erased,loved ones gone. Even the innocence of our children has been shattered.
Every bit of help—even a small donation—could save a life or rekindle a flicker of hope.

Thank you for remembering Gaza 😢🙏

Dear brothers and sisters,
I'm not used to asking for donations.
But the situation is extremely painful.
Children in need of milk, a destroyed home, etc.
A donation of $1 will make a difference toward achieving a dream.

If you think “No Kings” is not anti-imperial enough, take note. I took a Palestine sign to the first one and while I saw others, I got a lot of engagement from folks. Even if they’re organized by lib normies, these events need NOT be a ceiling. They’re a floor. Go raise the roof at them.

Aubrey Gilleran @aubreygilleran.bsky.social · 3d

Can report back from the Charlotte No Kings that "free Palestine" is now, if not the normie lib position, then at least fully accepted among the normie libs. Lots of signs and flags scattered about, no apparent drama at all.
