Pam Bondi just refused to turn around and look at the survivors. She refused.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Raise your hand if you heard "Winter Storm Fern" and this is where your mind immediately went. #MGLit

Obama actually won his Nobel Peace Prize.

ACCURATE.

There is currently an enormous protest in the streets of Minneapolis in response to the murder there today by the American Gestapo, ICE. I take some comfort in this.

🎯

Renee Nicole Good was murdered by ICE. She wasn’t just killed, she was murdered.

The right was already trying to vilify her before we even knew her name. But I’m just going to say it…

They’re going to have a much harder time doing that this time.

She’s not Brown.
She’s not Black.
She’s white.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

TIM WALZ: "People are lined up to get food and we're talking about a damn ballroom."

When a president sends troops into American cities to “restore order,” what he’s really doing is testing obedience. Portland and Chicago aren’t war zones…they’re warning shots. Authoritarians don’t announce takeovers. They practice them. One city at a time. However, each practice destroys families.

Tweet from the VP: Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most. Yet she oozes with contempt. My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much happier person if you showed a little gratitude

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

Big sigh. Watch this.

Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting?

No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.

"Do you believe in the existence of extraterrestrials?"

🛸 #OTD in #TV #History 10 September 1993, smash hit #scifi series THE X-FILES, created by Chris Carter and starring #DavidDuchovny and #GillianAnderson, debuted on Fox.

Glad to see it! The blue states are stepping up where the federal government has failed us.

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day.

Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day.

It's not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Representative Ann Johnson calls out Texas Republicans for their blatant racism against minority communities in Texas.

She is seething, and we can feel her anger through our devices on this video.

I just saw a kindergarten mom in tears on TikTok because her child’s classroom wasn’t filled with rugs and lamps and bins full of fun things...

It’s important to understand what a state-funded classroom looks like versus a teacher-funded classroom. Your beef is with the state, not the teacher.

Decision to unfreeze migrant education money comes too late for some kids • Stateline The Trump administration announced it would begin reinstating more than $6 billion in education funds. Among the programs affected was an education program for children of migrant agricultural workers...

The Trump-Vance admin abandoned students. We fought to get that money released, but for too many students, the harm is already done. We'll keep advocating for all children to get the support they need. stateline.org/2025/07/31/d...

PBS News is not going anywhere.

We will continue our work without fear or favor, as we have for nearly five decades on the air.

We are profoundly grateful to Viewers Like You for your loyalty and unwavering support.

“They’re trying to silence us. That won’t work…we’ll just get louder”

Trump won. But the country lost big.

Republicans just rammed through the Big Ugly Bill. They wanted to sneak this through in the dead of night. That’s @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social forced them to vote in the light of day, by giving that record-breaking floor speech.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
