While Kristi Noem’s out here blaming everyone but herself, here’s her own April press release bragging about clawing back $882M in disaster resilience grants. The kind that could’ve helped in Texas. They’d rather wage culture wars than actually protect human lives.
When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.
This 4th of July, fly your flag upside down.
Not out of disrespect — but because our country is in distress.
According to the U.S. Flag Code, an upside-down flag is a signal of dire emergency.
If not now, when?

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.
Interesting how Florida has the highest rent inflation in the country because it won’t create affordable housing. And yet if it wants to put a roof over people ICE kidnaps, they can build it in a week. 🤔
What, exactly, are we celebrating tomorrow?
Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy?
Our new concentration camps?
Our dying economy?
Our ditching due process?
Our corruption?
Our broken legislature?
Our corrupt SCOTUS?
Our ridiculous buffoon president? #FourthOfJuly
Members of Congress have a Constitutional, legal, and moral responsibility to conduct oversight of the Executive Branch. These charges are a blatant attempt to undermine Congress’s ability to be a check and balance on the Executive Branch.
This is the weaponization of government—full stop.
If you speak out against them—or in this case do your job—they will come for you.
What we’re seeing with @replamonica.bsky.social is a political stunt, and we won’t stand for it.
The GOP are cowards
All this shit is their fault. Make sure you let them know we hold them completely responsible. they need to be terrified of US, not plump

Menendez Jr: They feel no weight of the law and no restraint on what they should be doing. And that was shown in broad daylight today when they not just arrested the Mayor of Newark but when they put their hands on two members of congress standing behind me. How is this acceptable?
Ashley Babbit's family is poised to recieve 30 million dollars (from tax payers) thanks to the Dept of Justice...
Mrs Sicknick just wanted a phone call and the people who assaulted her son Brian held accountable.
There is no aborted fetus debris in the MMR vaccine, or in any vaccine at all.
It is worth noting that the Catholic Church, one of the most staunch anti-abortion organizations in the world, has a formal policy that encourages all vaccinations.
People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means.
It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.
1. Holly Robinson-Peete’s 27 year old son RJ is autistic and she has used her platform to become one of the most visible advocates for the autism community.
She reacts to RFK Jr’s horrible and inaccurate comments about autism here.

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it.
Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids.
Don’t let this go!!!
The only reason we ever became concerned with a “trade deficit” was in the 80s when Japanese car companies were eating American companies lunch.
That’s it.
It’s not meant to be an economic strategy.
I have a trade deficit with Applebees but we’re fine
Richard Chamberlain on coming out at age 68:
"It was as if an angel had put her hand on my head...and said, 'It's over. All that negative stuff is over.'"

Sometimes you just have to ask—why? The Senate voted to strike down a rule capping most bank overdraft fees at $5, a measure introduced by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that was expected to save Americans billions each year.
Tesla pays $323 million a year taxes to China for its Chinese plant.
They pay zero dollars in United States taxes.
Explain that fElon, while you're busy looking for "waste" in our government.
Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns.
Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity.
It’s been the plan for decades.
According to MAGA, if you hit a car with a baseball bat because you don’t like the company’s owner you’re a “terrorist”, but if you hit a Capitol police officer with a baseball bat because you don’t like the results of an election, you’re a “patriot.”
Do I have that just about right?
BREAKING: In past 24 hours, it appears that two journalists — Mohammad Mansour and Hossam Shbat — were specifically targeted and killed by Israel, simply for doing their job: reporting on the devastation.
This is deeply troubling and not something I can remotely support as a supporter of Israel.
