Maduro was a dictator.

But let's not pretend Trump cares about democracy.

He cozies up to dictators all over the world when it suits him.

Trump has been clear: he wants Venezuela’s oil.

That’s not democracy. That’s imperialism.

While unionized Starbucks workers are on strike for a fair contract, don’t cross the picket line!

Show solidarity β€” like Zohran Mamdani and Bernie Sanders.

Listen to what they had to say.

Nailed it! Think about this when you see some "fat ass, pink arm, teeny-weeny, beta pricks with their ugly ass wives" eating at a Mexican restaurant. If MAGA assholes only want their white culture, then "let them bathe in it" at their local Cracker Barrel.

@genefortexas.bsky.social on Greg Abbott: "To have a governor just bend the knee so casually-- to lick the boots with such energy, it's so unbecoming of a Texan. There's no independence... you're just another bootlicker."

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

If you don’t know how cooked we are. This is where we are at. This pot is boiling, frogs, and we’d better put out the fire and fast. Because that man is not alone in thinking this way. We are all about to be served on platters for oligarchs.

Donald Trump's immigration agents are parading around masked, in unmarked cars, and snatching hardworking people off the streets β€” ripping them away from their families and disappearing them into federal detention labyrinths just to meet indiscriminate arrest quotas.

Rumor claiming over 600 federal judges signed petition to impeach Chief Justice Roberts is satire The rumor circulated after Roberts issued a rare statement rebuking President Trump, without naming him, for his attacks on the federal judiciary.

As much as I would applaud this, this claim is not true.
