1/2 Jane Fonda has been warning us for decades, and she’s still in the streets doing it. In Los Angeles, she reminded us that movements, not presidents, end wars. From Vietnam, Iraq, & Afghanistan to this new war in the Middle East. “Trump may wage this war in our names, but not with our consent.”

@defiance.org @milestaylor.bsky.social Thank you so much for putting together the State of the Swamp. It was phenomenal, inspiring and oh so candid. Thoroughly enjoyed all the speakers, @jimacosta.bsky.social segment was truth and @walshfreedom.bsky.social was so damn right. #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think. But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

Republicans who refuse to impeach immediately are complicit.
Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders

1. It is illegal and unconstitutional. Congress did not authorize or even know about this military action.

2. It will make the world less safe. If international law is ignored, any nation or terrorist organization can justify a violent attack by pointing to Trump's actions in Venezuela.
This was Putin's logic in Ukraine.

3. It is blatant imperialism. Powerful nations do not have the legal or moral right to invade smaller countries to steal their natural resources. Venezuela's oil belongs to the people of Venezuela, not U.S. corporations.

4. At a time when the entire world is moving away from fossil fuels for cheaper and non-polluting sustainable energies, protecting the interests of Big Oil is bad for the climate and bad economics.

5. Maduro is corrupt and anti-democratic. So is MBS of Saudi Arabia. So are many other leaders around the world. Just because we do not like a country's leader does not mean we have the right to overthrow their government.

6. Trump ran for president as a "peace candidate" who believed in "America First," not someone who was going to
"run" another country. At a time when 60% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, maybe he should try doing a better job running this country, not taking over Venezuela.

Cities with populations over 500,000 trend blue, moreso the larger they get. Every single large-scale economic region in the US is politically liberal. Progressive values dominate where economic development thrives.

One more time for corporate media: No, it is NOT an "immigration crackdown". It's a domestic terror campaign conducted by the US government, orchestrated by Trump, Miller & Co. Stop using the administration's framing and come back to reality.

Jimmy Kimmel was suspended by ABC after pressure from the United States government. This is a direct attack on the First Amendment. Everyone who values freedom of speech should be outraged — and they should speak out.

Stifle the urge to point out MAGA hypocrisy. Remember: they're not flip-flopping, they're gaslighting. They manipulate, lie, mock, brag and threaten to attain and maintain dominance. Their actions all align with this aim. Truth in MAGA world is irrelevant, only dominance matters. So point and laugh!

Deportations in the name of Jesus? WTF? This is truly disgusting. Trump’s Department of Homeland Security just posted a blatantly Christian nationalist video depicting deportation raids as the Lord’s work. Why is our government posting this sick religious racist propaganda from its official accounts
