If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
At the same time, the government is gutting social programs like Medicaid, Medicare and food assistance while pushing military spending toward $1.5 trillion.
The resources taken from workers are being funneled into two things: the enrichment of billionaires and the expansion of imperialist war.
The war on Iran is unfolding alongside a wave of mass layoffs in the US. These are not separate crises. They are two sides of the same offensive by the ruling class against the working class.
Yes they do
This is *nothing* dignified about wearing a cheap baseball cap that promotes yourself to the otherwise solemn ceremony to receive the bodies of the troops you had killed to distract from your bad economy and rampant pedophilia.
Snickers, get off the cat!
Cat? What cat?
MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”
What the fuck is wrong with America. That his approval is anywhere near 40 is madness. He should be closer to 20.
Fuck sake the dems and others are not making the case that he is STEALING democracy from under their noses. In plain sight.
Something must be done.
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez speaks with reporters. (AP / Bill Clark/CQ Roll Call)
AOC: “That’s one reason he must be removed from office - if the Epstein files have such a hold on Trump & this admin that they are willing to plunge us & risk world war in order to save themselves politically - that is the definition of someone who cant make objective decisions for the American ppl”
the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.
The Olympic winning men’s hockey has lost my respect as role modrls for both all the little girls and boys out there hoping to emulate their success.
How dare you suck up to THE MOST SEXIST, PATRIARCHAL, MISOGYNISTIC ADMINISTRATION IN AMERICAN HISTORY.
You BOIS suck. BIGLY.

A heartfelt congratulations to the US women's Hockey team! You are the best of the best on and off the rink!
And a hearty fuck off to the US men's Hockey team for showing the world that they are nothing but a bunch of shameful, misogynist MAGA dude-bros.
Kids’ immune systems always know when you are under immense pressure to get a lot of detail-oriented work done.
Today I’m proposing a ban on assault rifles, high-capacity magazines, binary triggers, firearms without serial numbers, and more.

And I don’t want to hear shit about a censure vote against this man.
Rep. Al Greene was ejected from the State of the Union for the sign — “Black People Aren’t Apes.”
y'know, I'm starting to think that maybe these high-end hockey players are Dumb Guys

Two days in a row I have seen packages on the ground in front of the Amazon locker. Seems they run out of lockers and just leave the package there.
NEW: A hobbyist has created Nearby Glasses, an app that warns you if someone close by is wearing smart glasses. 404 Media spoke to the creator who said he was inspired by our coverage that uncovers how men are wearing Meta's Ray-Bans to covertly film massage parlor workers.
Definitely never address him as president.

Social media companies are suppressing terms like “Epstein” and “ICE” and “voting” because they don’t want you thinking about those things. Like and share everything you see.
Translation: I will steal this election, and my lawyers will find a thin excuse to justify it.
@jakubkrupa.bsky.social does it again.
What the congressman reports below is disgusting.
He reveals the utter lack of decency and humanity in the Trump administration, especially in the telling detail at the end.
Says the guy who auctioned off little girls
Says the guy who trafficked little girls
Says the guy who raped little girls

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."
