Trump revoked the visa of Nobel Peace Prize winner Óscar Arias for daring to criticize him—proof the regime now punishes dissent like a dictatorship. Silencing global peacemakers while empowering fascists is the new GOP brand. This isn't policy. It's authoritarian rot.

COONS: There are people on the Social Security rolls listed as having born 150 or 200 years ago. They are not receiving Social Security payments.

MacCALLUM: I don't think that's true.

COONS: Martha, I'm just repeating back to you what the Trump administration acting Social Security administrator said.

Gross. #Trump is calling his new #tariffs announcement event in the Rose Garden,“Make America Wealthy Again”

They will do the exact opposite.

Musk stormed into Wisconsin like a wannabe messiah, handed out checks, and declared the fate of civilization at stake. Voters laughed him off the stage and crushed his candidate. His MAGA kingmaker fantasy just turned into a boat anchor dragging the GOP down fast.

If we tax billionaires out of existence we run the serious, inevitable risk of a healthy middle class & elections decided by voters, not fascist oligarchs.

Do we really want to give up 800 billionaires for universal healthcare, free college, & climate justice?

No Way.

I do not want your Gemini,
I do not want any AI.
I do not want it in my Chrome,
I do not want it in my home.
Not in my mail,
Even on sale,
Not in my app,
None of this crap.
I do not want it here or there,
I do not want it anywhere!

Cynthia Williams:

My federal contacts tell me that Purchasing and Warehouse departments were eliminated today at the CDC, FDA, and NIH. What does that mean?

It means that even if scientists aren't fired or are reinstated, they won't have supplies to do their jobs. Starve the system. Then send everyone home.

😱🤬📢

Cory Booker's inspiring closing words after 25 hours holding the Senate floor ->
