Warren: The only movement these Republicans can manage is bowing down to Trump. When you ask them about today, they claim the No Kings Rally is anti-American. They’re wrong. Hundreds of thousands of people protesting peacefully for what they believe in—that is deeply American. That is patriotism.

No kings in Hudson MA - - I'd guess 700 showed up!

At what point will blue states unite to confront Trump? We fund the red states, and now Trump is holding back funds from us. We give far more than we receive - without us, his house of cards falls.

Remember, we arent trying to reach the 30% declared Trump Fascists.
Reach the 35% who didnt vote, and those who were swayed by lies that resonated w/ a concern they have.
Don't get into the mud & wrestle the pigs... Or get angry when a pig says piggy things.
That's not where the fight lies.

Hm. A national registry of people with Autism. From a government with folks who believe in eugenics. What could possibly go wrong?

Oh, and a national medal of motherhood for having 6 or more kids... perhaps we can call it the Lebensborn Laurel?

Yeah, we're 1930s Germany, aren't we?

Oh the yellow kids of Texas don’t need them no vaccines
Cuz RFK tells truer than any doc you seen!
Now a rash as big as Texas is on them head to toe,
But they don’t need their liver, cuz RFK said so!
There are so many rashes a bloomin’ state to state
But MMR’s forbidden, cuz vit’min A’s so great!

This week the Trump Administration announced it’s ending humanitarian parole for citizens of Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela and Nicaragua. “The idea of America being the land of freedom, the land of opportunity, how is destroying that benefiting America?” asked one recipient in Massachusetts.
With 1 month to leave the U.S., Haitians and others scramble for next steps

@electdemocrats.bsky.social, ALL Dems need to connect each DT action to weakness and fear - direct msg that gets under his skin AND is accurate. Every interview, every speech. How'd he react if "Weak" was on those paddles at his speech?

Given that the United States only controls a zone that extends out to the shelf in the Gulf, I've created a more accurate map that may help the Trumpies feel less owie-hurt because something near us isn't named after us....

3 weeks. Remember,folks excited by Orange Julius "doing what he said he'd do" this is when the tide is heading out far-cool! It's never done that before!-& you're excited to stroll out and look at the pretty shells.

So, while you gather the pretties, pardon me while I scope out some higher ground.

Hmmm. Maybe a pro Palestinian protest vote for Trump was not a good idea, folks...

The DNC needs to hammer the pardoning of people who assaulted officers. Take a page from the GOP and pound the message from all corners.

The same people who’ve spent the last several years decrying “unqualified DEI hires” are now shoehorning through Cabinet nominations who can’t even pass a basic background test.

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive.

This is what oligarchy looks like.
