What the hell is going on at McArthur Park in Los Angeles, CA! Looks like these militarized thugs are doing some kind of federal disappearing operation on street vendors in the park. This is only going to get worse with the new bloated ICE budget. #UnMaskICE

Thinking ahead to the midterms (optimistically), with the known election interference in the past, would it possibly be helpful if we were to start pressuring local governments to count ballots by hand?

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

We could all be Kilmar Abrego Garcia…Even if we’re citizens.
That’s part of why we have to fight for him.
But we also have to fight and never stop because America will never have a king. We don’t do those here. A monarch goes against everything we stand for.
No kings in America, now or ever.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.
Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.
