Less than a mile where George Floyd was killed, ICE agents murdered a U.S. Citizen in cold blood. Every member of Congress who does not call for the resignation or impeachment of ICE Barbie Kristi Noem is complicit. Silence in the face of violence is approval.

Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.

An agreement to agree to do a later vote is NOT an enforceable contract so what in the actual hell are Americans getting out of this deal??

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

CUTHBERT GRANT JR. Métis Leader. At just 22, he led the Métis to victory at the Battle of Seven Oaks, June 19, 1816. Where the wind first carried the cry of the Métis nation. To me, a third great-uncle. To history, a nation builder. Our blood remembers. #ResistanceInMyDNA #SevenOaks

The U.S. government just deported a man with no criminal record because of a photo. Not a warrant. Not a conviction. A photo of someone else's tattoos. This isn’t justice. It’s fascism with a badge.

It already happened in Portland in 2020—feds in camo, no badges, shoving protesters into vans. And we let it slide. Now it’s metastasizing. If you’re not raising hell about masked men abducting citizens with no due process, you’re not defending democracy. You’re watching it erode.

If Fox can incite violence and destabilize democracy, maybe it’s time the FCC and FTC stop pretending they just tell jokes.

I believe it. What is being done? Push for publicly owned or independently verified election systems, with open-source code and bipartisan audits. The DISCLOSE Act would require any group spending money in federal elections to reveal its donors.

Saying “All children are children of God” frames LGBTQ+ rights as a matter of divine worthiness, not human or legal equality.

They say “entertainment,” but their influence is deadly serious. They’re not reporting news—they’re manufacturing belief. And when propaganda wears a news anchor’s suit, democracy bleeds from the inside.

One problem is that we allow this professionally produced propaganda, labeled as “news” to poison the population. They use it, because it works. Long past time to curb it with legislation.

To those who have not studied history, or forgot, or don’t believe history repeats, take a look. If you still don’t get the connection, then you will live the consequences of your actions, or inaction.

It’s not “click-seeking” to sound the alarm when democracy’s under attack. Some of us aren’t sad because everyone’s yelling—we’re yelling because everyone’s asleep.

We’ve seen what America thinks of Trump can we stop pretending he has majority support? He’s lawless. He’s cornered. He’s clinging to power by lying to the few who’ll still listen. The cult is shrinking. The rest of us? We’re done playing along. #NoMorePretending

“The majority of white America elected a man whose business model is lying. A perfect cult leader. Our enemies are ecstatic. Our allies are horrified. Because of the suicidal Republican ideology of opposing any limits on gluttony and greed.” — Matthew Cooke

U.S. Marines detaining a civilian on domestic soil— A direct challenge to the Posse Comitatus Act, which bars federal troops from enforcing civilian law. Who wants to call it? Death of Democracy: June 13, 2025. We just watched the line vanish.

Latino voters showed up in 2024—now ICE is showing up in their neighborhoods. Families are being targeted, citizens questioned, rights ignored. This isn’t law & order. It’s intimidation. And we see it.

Bold of you to assume Trump knows how to resign from anything but responsibility. Add Giuliani, Flynn, and the entire fantasy cabinet while we’re at it. Might as well clean house before the sentencing.

A sitting U.S. Senator was manhandled and cuffed for speaking—at a public event. This isn't "approaching" authoritarianism. This is authoritarianism. If you're silent now, history will remember that too. #WeAreThere #Padilla #SpeakUpNow

AOC nailed it. This isn’t about everyone being equal—it’s about not forcing teachers to sell blood while billionaires build helipads. If that offends you more than the inequality itself, you’re not defending capitalism—you’re excusing cruelty. #IStandWithAOC #EconomicJustice

The Constitution doesn’t say “Christian,” “church,” or “Jesus” once. You know what does show up? “No religious test.” So no—Christianity isn’t America’s official religion. That’s not an oversight. That’s intentional. #FoundersKnewBetter #SeparationOfChurchAndState
