I am convinced that a big part of Trump's appeal among his MAGA base is his lack of intellect. Many of his supporters identify with his complete stupidity, his rude racist obnoxious and uninhibited behaviour. They think "He is one of us" however much his policies damage them and their daily lives😱
A quick lesson on winning and losing a war. If you start a war of choice, blow through masses of your weapons stocks so that you cannot escalate effectively, and find the country you attacked dictating negotiating terms while in a stronger strategic position. You lost.
Peaceful protesters at MDC LA tied 76 ribbons for lives lost to ICE, only to face state violence: a federal agent pointing a gun, beating one demonstrator, & pepper-spraying another after young girls were taken inside. We demand accountability for this brutality! #AbolishICE 🎥 windstormjustice
ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.
We will need hundreds of intelligent and qualified people like Dr. El-Sayed to step up in order to fix the hot mess Trump and his Republican traitors have made of America!
This man is inspiring me! #Pinks #USDemocracy
Averaging over 104 F per day is not in any way normal.
For decades, Democrats did Republicans a favor no one thanked them for. They blocked cuts like this before red-state voters ever felt them. That era is over. This time the bill passed, and the pain must land on the cynical Republicans who voted for it.
"No president and his party have ever taken away health insurance from millions of Americans while shoveling trillions to some of the richest humans alive."
When the banks needed help, they called it “stabilizing the economy.” When airlines needed help, they called it “protecting jobs.” When corporations got tax breaks, they called it “pro-growth.” When working people need health care? “SOCIALISM.”
This absolutely shows Hegspeth is an incompetent drunken fool and needs to resign immediately!!!
Consequences of doge eliminating the services your tax $ provide to funnel the $ to the rich. And when those wealthy people contribute enormous amounts of $ to the morally bankrupt party that will eliminate safety regulations and anything hindering their profit. 🗳 IWillVOTE.com

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld
My favorite part of this story was when the Trump cabal sent Mike Waltz out to blame the weapons shortage on Joe Biden; then he did a 180 by claiming the missile supply WASN’T depleted; then he immediately AGAIN admitted the story is true-and the people who leaked it would be prosecuted Classic
New in PN: Trump can’t lie his way out of a missile shortage "Unlike Republican voters and senators, adversaries like Russia, Iran, & China are not especially dazzled by Trump’s oozing narcissistic wounds. His priority is his ego first with national security coming in a very, very distant second."
The reason the wealthy are making end of the world predictions is because they WANT the world to end. Elon, Thiel, and Zuckerberg all have apocalypse bunkers to escape the carnage they are causing.
More leaders need to follow El-Sayed’s lead and make the CLEAR point that the trump regime is LITERALLY making people sick. It’s not just a coincidence that all of this wide spread food related illness is happening after the massive cuts to FDA and food safety inspectors. @democrats.senate.gov
Before taking office, Katie Hobbs spent her career as a social worker-supporting families facing homelessness & escaping domestic violence. That experience shapes her work as governor every day, from tackling medical debt to making child care more affordable. AZ finally has a leader who understands.
AOC is the single most important, original voice in American politics today...those who dismiss her chance to lead the country miss the degree to which she regularly speaks for the whole country...across the political spectrum. Because she speaks for regular people. Her influence will only grow.
AOC: Millennials are not punk kids anymore. We're grown adults with mortgages and kids, and that generation is starting to be decisive at the polls. And there is anger at being ignored, having our economic futures mortgaged by the generations that came before us and we're taking the reins
7/9 2025 was the deadliest year in ICE detention in over two decades. More than 30 deaths. 2026 is on pace to be worse. That’s not enforcement. That’s a crisis, and it’s happening on purpose, on our watch. www.npr.org/2025/10/23/n...
It's the deadliest year for people in ICE custody in decades; next year could be worse
There have been at least 20 deaths in ICE custody in 2025, the deadliest year since 2004. As the agency is ramping up hiring and increasing detentions, concerns remain about how to stop the trend.
