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. Thanks. bit.ly/4qmEiFz
I'm going to KEEP talking about how Florida Senator Rick Scott, the RICHEST man in all of Congress DEFRAUDED Medicare & is trying to CUT Social Security. Will you join me?🤚
Democrats forced their Senate nominee out within days of a serious allegation. Republicans have repeatedly rallied behind candidates facing similar accusations. That difference says something important about what each party now tolerates. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Vance's Scathing Trump Op-Ed On Its 10th Anniversary republished by @TheAtlantic shows us this meme is 100% accurate "Trump never offers details for how these plans will work, because he can’t His promises are the needle in America’s collective vein” www.huffpost.com/entry/atlant...
PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”
I don't need Trump voters to admit they were wrong, I just need them to vote differently in 2026 and 2028. Humiliation isn't required of them, change and opening their eyes is.
CEO pay is up 1,094% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 26%. Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
Just here to say ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot Renee Good as she was driving away. Sue me.
JD Vance told the truth. Watergate would barely crack the news cycle today compared to the daily and overwhelming corruption of the Trump administration. The history books will judge us brutally
The Ten Commandments are on the walls. Chaplains can be school counselors. There is already an optional curriculum using Bible stories. Now, they want ALL public school students to be taught from the Bible. This is indoctrination. abcnews.com/US/wireStory...

Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why? They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...
Federal agents track down Syracuse woman, demand she remove Instagram post about ICE

The Trump regime has killed at least 210 people by bombing boats in the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean since last September. Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it. This is a danger to us all.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

The more money corporations corruptly pour into our elections, the less money they pay in taxes while prices get higher for everyday people. This is exactly why we need to get corporate money out of politics.
Public Citizen@publiccitizen.bsky.social · 2mo agoAt least 88 corporations paid $0 in federal income tax last year. Those 88 corporations also happened to spend $852 MILLION on political lobbying the last three election cycles. They're essentially making a 3,000% return on investment. The system is rigged.
I’m for the war ending. But this deal - which boils down to the U.S. paying Iran billions to open the Strait - is final proof of how predictably disastrous this war was.

Susan rice reacts to the MOU after Trump’s disastrous, pointless war
March 9: "We're now totally independent of the Middle East. We don't need their oil." April 1: "It doesn't really affect us. We have so much oil, much more than we need." June 17: If I didn't agree to the MOU, we "would run out of reserves at about 4 weeks..."
America's roughly 1,100 billionaires (and 1 trillionaire) are collectively worth a record $9.24 trillion. The wealth of the bottom half of the US, roughly 65 million households? $4.3 trillion. It's not radical to tax the rich. It's radical to allow this level of wealth concentration to continue.
