This is what a rigged system looks like.

Must be a coincidence! 😬🤷🏼

Remember that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."

"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'"

These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now.

Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.

These billionaires pay their workers so little that many of their workers need public assistance.

Meanwhile, their companies just got another round of tax cuts from a bill that gutted the public assistance their workers have to rely on to get by.

Trickle-down economics is a sham.

Trump's VA killed a home loan program. Vets are now losing their homes because of it Foreclosures on VA loans are at their highest level in a decade. VA has a fix but it is months away and could still leave vets worse off than most other homeowners.

Your federal government on Trumpism:

"More than 10,000 veterans lost their homes to foreclosure since May 2025, when the Trump administration shut down a key safety net in the VA home loan program...

"Another 90,000 vets are heading toward foreclosure..."

Oh noooooo

So inspiring

Exactly. It's the hypocrisy. Just like Falwell having threesomes with the pool boy. Do you, but let me do me.

📚 “I stand by my decision. I will not change my mind.”

RUTHERFORD COUNTY library director LUANNE JAMES 🦸‍♀️ was just fired for refusing to move kids books into the adult section simply because the board doesn’t like what they’re about.

Unconscionable. This is what happens when Christian nationalists infiltrate and erode the high court by replacing science with their own twisted beliefs and calling it law.

FAVREAU: “$200 billion could eliminate nearly all medical debt in America, fund free community college for two decades, or feed 42 million Americans for two years. Instead, we're dropping bombs on Iran.”

(From @podsaveamerica.crooked.com )

⛽️⛽️According to AAA, the average price for a gallon of gas is up to $4.01 nationwide — $1 more per gallon since the war started.
The price hike over the last month is the largest in the past 30 years.

World leader pretend, for now anyway…. No Kings 3 in your town today.

That’s just my two cents.

Remember: The richest 1% evade roughly $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Screenshot of a tweet by Acyn summarizing a discussion between Jessica and Watters on Fox News. Jessica criticizes Watters, saying he is not asking legitimate questions but instead expressing admiration for Donald Trump. The image shows a panel of five people seated around a table on “The Five,” a Fox News program.

Perfect summation of the sycophantic GOP.

Jaw-dropping admission by DOJ to court.

DOJ admits to having repeatedly made "material mistaken" representations to judge - ICE never had authority (under 2025 Guidance) to conduct arrests at immigration courthouses!

DOJ admits court "relied on...prior misrepresentations."

DOJ blames ICE (page 2)

Good afternoon.

This is your daily reminder that Trump just lifted sanctions on Iran to give them $14 BILLION to hep fund their war against us.

In other words, your daily reminder that this is probably the dumbest war of all time.

Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

Thanks to Trump's attacks on federal research funding, the National Cancer Institute hasn't made a single grant this fiscal year.

Just last month, Trump issued an EO to increase production of glyphosate, a chemical linked to cancer.

"Make America Healthy Again."

Spotted in Nashville this week…

Screenshot of an X post by “No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen” claiming Costco is demanding that Trump reimburse them for tariffs so they can refund customers. Below are two images side by side: the Costco Wholesale logo and a photo of Donald Trump looking at a phone while reporters hold microphones near him.

This is what all big companies should be doing.

Chris Murphy is spot on.
