This is an attack on the freedom of press. This is yet another attack on free speech. This is an attack on our civil liberties. This regime is chipping away at the foundation of our society. The complicity and failed leadership from Hakeem Jeffries is a disgrace and an embarrassment.

This is Peaches. She was found as a stray with two breaks in her back leg, leaving a fragment of bone floating between the fractures and causing severe pain. She needs surgery and a plate implant for the chance to walk comfortably again. Help her below ❤️🩹

This is how you get Vichy Dems. Democrats who watch as the world is bulldozed just so they can hold ceremonial positions every few years while they do nothing and then let the world get bulldozed some more.
It’s not a theory to make your lives better.
It is a job security program for them.

its very clear the goal of the democrats is to give trump space to destroy everything with the hopes they can swoop in during the midterms and reap the rewards of the backlash. it worked in 2008, 18, and 20. problem is it requires allowing gop to kill a lot of people (iraq war, katrina, covid)

Disgusting behavior from Frey & Co. We stand with CM Aisha Chughtai. Read her statement 👇
At a time when our community is under attack by the federal government, Minneapolis should be united in making sure every resident knows they belong here. As Ramadan continues, I hope we can come together to celebrate our vibrant Muslim community with support from City leaders.

Question… if and when Dems do this, vote for a bill with anti trans stuff in it because Republicans put it in a budget, would you say the same thing?
Abortion ban?
Do you have any line at all?

And the same people defending this will defend that.

1. Yesterday, ten Democrats capitulated on an Republican budget, empowering the worst of Musk and Trump, and gutting medicaid.
It is a foreshadowing of LGBTQ+ and trans fights to come.
I ask: Where is the line which Dems will NOT vote for one of these bills?

Where Is The Line? Democratic Budget Capitulation Foreshadows LGBTQ+ Fights To Come
Yesterday, several Democrats excused a vote that will allow the Trump administration to gut Medicaid and empower Musk and Trump to consolidate power.

Here it is in a nutshell:
1. Trump is an authoritarian.
2. With the GOP controlling Congress, courts are key to protecting democracy.
3. So far, courts are doing a good job on #2.
4. GOP will next attack election rules like they did in 2021.
Don't let the cynics convince you not to fight. FIGHT!

If they ignore court orders, the social contract is dead and buried, the constitution is no longer in effect.

This guy’s onto something. We should set up a new branch of government that can set USAID spending levels and investigate if the funds are being spent correctly. We could even have that branch be democratically elected and have wide representation from the entire country.
