⚡️NEW: In Tennessee, Rep. @brotherjones.bsky.social has introduced the “STOP AMERICAN GESTAPO ACT” — requiring law enforcement not to wear masks, and to ID themselves.

As Blackburn, Johnson, Sexton and the GOP try to codify masked vigilantism, Jones moves to ban it to protect the public.

Hot take: Not only are work requirements for Medicaid bad, tying health care to work at all is cruel and we should be doing it less not more.

Everyone deserves health care. Everyone.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

@johniadarola.bsky.social I think you mentioned to the audience to send in pics from the #handsoffprotests across the country on Saturday. This is Asheville, NC! We had 7,000+ in attendance.

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.

Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

Coming out of a bit of a news break whilst in L.A. and this is quite the hard re-entry: the president of Ukraine being lectured like a child by the U.S. president and vice president who want to steal his natural resources and hand chunks of his country to Putin. I have never been so embarrassed.
Omg. This is a thread. Every one should be appalled. 1/5

Fully agree, this was an ambush. A setup. A carefully planned, tricky attack. Note trump near the end saying “This is going to make GREAT TV”… 🤬🤮

I’m still completely horrified…

I don’t believe for one second that whole debacle in the White House wasn’t planned and orchestrated. Trump let JD go off on purpose. These clowns wanted it.

Democrats Defend Zelenskyy 🇺🇦

Chris Coons,”We owe him our thanks for leading a nation fighting on the front lines of democracy - not the public berating he received at the WH”

Chris Murphy,”What a utter embarrassment for America. This whole sad scene.

Thank you to WNC’s own, Mary Beth Cochran! Below is her speech yesterday.

I think the Dems standing alongside REAL everyday people, giving them the mic & hearing their actual life stories is something we should see more of! #wnc #momsrising #medicaid #gopbudgetplan

The rush to destroy things like USAID and other agencies before lawsuits can stop them is to make it moot. When our stupidly slow judicial system finally moves to stop them it will be far too late. If all 10,000 USAID employees are home and projects abandoned it’s done. It’s evil.
