We must lift the US oil blockade on Cuba.

This is economic warfare designed to suffocate an island.

Food is spoiling.
Water supply is compromised.
Healthcare services are disrupted.

End the blockade now. Grateful to all those helping deliver humanitarian aid!
Tons of aid flows into Cuba as humanitarian convoy arrives on the struggling island
Some 650 delegates from 33 countries and 120 organizations have started arriving in Cuba as part of a solidarity caravan transporting some 20 tons of humanitarian aid as the island grapples with a sev...

You don't push back on this by demanding a new law. Demanding a new law actually suggests to the public that this idea isn't already protected by our most fundamental laws.

You push back on this by demanding the EXPULSION of legislators like Mike Johnson who are openly disparaging the Constitution.
Calling the requirement for a judicial warrant before entering a person’s home one of the Democrats’ “new restrictions on federal immigration agents” crosses the line into outright falsehood. It’s in the Bill of Rights! A rule as old as the republic.

Transforming the Twin Cities into a state of exception is a revolutionary act. Assembling a paramilitary to impose such a revolution by force is treason. It’s straightforward analysis. What’s hard is accepting such an action can be conducted so openly without anyone making it for what it is.
It’s currently operating totally outside of our constitutional rules. Habeas corpus , due process of law, equal protection, freedom of speech, 4th amendment protections against search and seizure, are all not being enforced in any common sense or meaningful way.

The problem isn’t our laws, the problem is our leaders.

Our system has many problems, but the issue here isn’t that Trump has found some legal loophole. It’s that a critical mass of our politicians have broken their oaths and abandoned their sacred duty to uphold our fundamental laws.
I've harped on congressional war powers for a long time and we do need to fix all that, but threatening to invade Greenland while ranting at Norway about the Nobel Peace Prize and imposing trade sanctions on NATO is more the kind of thing you can only fix by not having a literally insane president.

“He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us."
—The Declaration of Independence

Levying war on the United States is self-impeaching conduct.
the things they are doing, these paramilitary squads, there's absolutely no reason for any of it. just spectacle. just a fusillade fired at you. you've been invaded. you have been declared the enemy. there's no reason for this other than that. you and yours are now the enemy. "all of yours"

This is what I saw in the shooter’s video and I also wondered if he was filming them to make some point about queer women not respecting the regime.

Q: “Are you affirming you think Trump is a fascist?”

TRUMP: “That’s ok, you can just say yes.”

ZOHRAN: “Ok. Yes.”

*The president is all powerful and can fire civil servants, impound spending, redirect money and deploy troops despite numerous constitutional and legal restrictions but he can't spend emergency money for food stamps set aside specifically for shutdowns* is all-time amazing messaging.

Aw Jeez. I was rooting for the free world over the nascent fascist dictatorship.

Hey there, a lot of us US citizens who are appalled at what’s happening here are rooting for the Blue Jays too.
This much more than a ball game, this is Canada vs the USA and the way up have been treating us, is disgraceful. So many Canadian fans are not just cheering for the jays, they are cheering for their country to win over the the pumpkin!!!

Everyone sing along!

🎶Don’t cry for us, Argentina.
We’re like Canada, only much meaner.
And we gave up healthcare,
For your peso to be finer,
So you could steal our soybean exports.
That went to China.🎶

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.
