It is abhorrent how we hear nothing from our state’s federal senators and representatives about what is happening in Gaza. People are starving. Children are dying.
Our taxes are aiding a genocide. If we do not stand up we are complicit.
A Democratic Mayor arrested.
A Democratic Congresswoman indicted.
A Democratic Senator tackled and detained.
A Democratic State Representative killed.
A Democratic State Representative in critical condition.
We can all see where this is going.
Happy Obama Day!

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.
Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
Sen. Booker just broke the record for the longest floor speech in Senate history—a record set by Strom Thurmond trying to block the Civil Rights Act. The irony ain’t lost on us. From fighting against justice to fighting for it. This is what courage & being on the right side of history looks like!
Do you know who laid the foundation for the FDA?
President Theodore Roosevelt. Do you know why? Because he read a great piece of literature that exposed the mistreatment of immigrant workers and the disgusting, unsanitary practices in meatpacking plants…
The book is called “The Jungle.”
They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.
I’m still processing what we saw in the Oval Office and it’s difficult to put into words how disgusted and ashamed I am.
This was a coordinated assault on an ally to benefit a dictator and authoritarian regime. Trump and Vance aren’t just Putin’s puppets, they’re his assets.
Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important

Call it a Day Of Transparency
Raskin: "Yesterday, Donald Trump banned the Associated Press, a 179-year-old newspaper organization, from the White House because it declines to call the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America." This is straight up press censorship based on retaliatory viewpoint discrimination."
Please remember something: if you had said a year ago that Trump would do even a fraction of these things, you would have been mocked, belittled, accused of “Trump derangement syndrome,” and dismissed by certain people.
Identify those people and block and shun them.
Jealous!
ELON IS ALLOWED IN THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. NOT YOUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES OR STUDENTS & PARENTS. I WILL BE BACK.
The Department of Education (DOE) does not dictate what states teach. Every state develops its own curriculum.
Trump wants to eliminate the DOE because it provides funding to ensure DEI for all students (SPED, ELL & Title 1 programs).
7.5+ million students benefit from these programs.
Holy Shit 🤯
Tennesse Republicans want to charge elected officials who vote against Trump's immigration policy with a felony punishable by up to 6 years in prison.
This provision sets a dangerous precedent of penalizing any elected official for voting their conscience.

It's horrifying that this is happening.
This Pathé News report of Hitler speaking in 1936 shows him making exactly the same salute as Musk, at 35sec, right down to raising his hand to his heart before swinging it out. Wonder if Musk has watched this newsreel, or just accidentally exactly copied Hitler's action.
