The Trump regime wants to dismantle the International Criminal Court because it plans to continue committing war crimes. The Trump regime is refusing to allow international election monitors because it plans to continue committing election fraud. They are not being subtle.

"And again, remember, with the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe. They could take out a city. Let 'em take out Los Angeles, let 'em take out San Diego.“ -Trump on sacrificing CA @piaguerra.bsky.social

The MAGA regime added new video arcade games on the bulldozed White House website which allows players to terrorize/deport black and brown families with ICE-Gestapo agents. This isn’t an administration, it’s a murderous pedo white supremacist criminal syndicate.

Democratic senators: Want to make a difference? Make the focus of your questioning of Todd Blanche his role in leading the Epstein coverup. I'd go so far as to say make that the only focus. And on Thursday, have Epstein survivors, not big shot lawyers, testify. open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

I'm not hiding this for anyone's sensibilities. Get over yourselves.
They told us Democrats would turn America into a show-your- papers society. 
They told us Democrats would strip away the second amendment. 
They told us Democrats would jail us for what we say. 
They told us Democrats would drag us into foreign wars. 
They told us Democrats would cover up a child sex trafficking ring. 
And then Republicans took power and decided to do all of it themselves.

Today marks 250 years since a small group of newspaper editors, farmers, and soldiers signed a document declaring our nation's independence — a truth that feels self-evident now but was revolutionary then.
What a privilege us Americans have, to live in a nation that every one of its inhabitants can shape. What an honor us New Yorkers have, to look out over our city's waters from the shores where so many Americans bravely entered their country for the first time.
Today and all days, let us remember that patriotism is not pretending our nation is without flaws. Patriotism is every act of righteous dissent — because loving our country means fighting for the best version of it.
Happy Fourth of July, New York City.

Republicans made a CHOICE. They passed a law to rip away health care from millions. They REFUSED to save the ACA tax credits. All while they showered billionaires & giant corporations with TRILLIONS in tax cuts. Now more than 5 million Americans have lost health care.

Medicaid and ACA enrollment falls by more than 5 million, new report finds
The decline over the last 12 months stems in part from President Donald Trump’s Medicaid cuts and the expiration of enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies.

The oppressed are those weighed down by injustice, those suffering under the burden of wrongdoing. Defending them is more than offering comfort—it means stepping up, challenging oppression at its source, and refusing to be passive in the face of evil.
