This was a very important vote tonight. Here's why.
For the past year Trump’s illegal tariffs have crushed our economic growth, hit American families with higher costs, killed the very manufacturing jobs we were told they would multiply, and alienated our closest allies. 1/

Republican rule vote FAILS.
Republican leaders just tried to use a procedural vote to continue their surrender of congressional powers to prevent Trump's abuse of tariff authorities.
Three Republicans, Reps. Massie, Bacon, and Kiley, joined all Democrats to block them.

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:
"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

The man who told reporters it’s time to move on from the Epstein files won’t shut up about the 2020 election.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

So the “elected” President with his elected majority House and Senate says they have to takeover elections because Dems cheat. Make that argument make sense.

All of the worker bees must unite and bring a collective sting to the oligarchs. Unions, strikes, boycotts, etc.
If you're rich you get a tax cut, if you're not you have to work longer and harder. Populism! bsky.app/profile/atru...
Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."

ICE was stealing equipment from the Islip Long Island fire department and a Islip Forward member documented it. ICE tried to arrest the community member but the firemen said “I don’t think so” www.islipforward.org

When a junta takes a $40M bride from the Amazon broligarch to create a “documentary” while at the same time making home arrests of those who do the real documenting, then you know your nation is in a hostage situation.

Trump’s illegal domestic deployments cost taxpayers $496 million—and counting.
Including $21 million in Illinois.
There’s no money for health care.
But half a billion to waste on intimidating Americans in their own communities.

Wild indeed! ⬇️
Kind of wild how the take that some of Trump's supporters were "deplorable" was some huge scandal, but regularly screaming about "radical left scum" is just a thing he'll say with no media backlash.

Priority!
Outdated laws give presidents sweeping power to use the military at home to suppress protests and make mass arrests in times of war and domestic upheaval. Congress must repeal the Alien Enemies Act, close the loopholes in the Posse Comitatus Act, and reform the Insurrection Act. bit.ly/4oxXJLN
Outdated and Dangerous
Antiquated laws from the 1700s and 1800s give the president tremendous power to use the military at home to quash protests and order mass arrests in times of war and domestic upheaval.

Trump serves them resentment and recycled talking points. He’s not fighting inflation he’s fighting reality.
Inflation demands policy. All Trump offered was grievance. And that tells voters everything they need to know: if he can’t scapegoat it, he can’t solve it.

Some days basic truths bring tears.
Teaching our kids to love themselves, and each other, shouldn't be divisive.
Supporting healthcare and education shouldn't be radical ideals.
Demanding honesty from our representatives shouldn't qualify as protest.
Maybe someday, we can build the world we all deserve.
