THIS 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 My Man Jalen Hurts will not be visiting the White House when the Super Bowl champions come later this afternoon. Hurts and other players who can’t attend had “scheduling conflicts.” Those same “scheduling conflicts” Tom Brady had when President Obama was in office.
💥 BREAKING: American Express shareholders voted to reject an anti-DEI proposal at their annual meeting today, tally TBD. Amex: "We Embrace Diversity" "We Stand for Equity and Inclusion: We are committed to rewarding and providing opportunities for colleagues equitably, based solely on merit"
🧵 Trump’s hypocrisy is off the charts: Rev William Barber, a giant of activism, was arrested for praying against the budget in the Capitol Rotunda. Reporters were threatened with arrest too. This just days after Trump’s DOJ created a fake “anti-Christian bias” task force tinyurl.com/Pastor-barber
Kind of amazing Canadian PM Mark Carney say he has made mistakes, will make mistakes, but commits to admitting them openly and correcting them quickly. That level of honor, decency, and HUMILITY is something Trump cannot relate to and cannot embody.
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries hit the nail on the head: Once again, Republicans are handing tax breaks to billionaires and corporations—while pregnant women on Medicaid and children on SNAP are left to suffer. It’s greed. It’s cruelty. And we’re fighting back with everything we’ve got. #HandsOffOurMedicaid
The Republicans consider basic human decency a ‘radical’ idea. Instead of passing legislation that actually helps working people, Republicans are only interested in making themselves richer and more powerful, even if it means abusing their power and skirting the law. Talk about radical… 😕
Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester lit it up:Where does the power come from? The people! Republicans are trying to rip Medicaid away from millions—but they can’t take what we refuse to give up. Our healthcare. Our dignity. Our lives. The power is ours. Now let’s use it.✊🏽✊🏾✊🏼 #HandsOffOurMedicaid
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberal Party won Canada’s federal election on Monday, capping a stunning turnaround in fortunes fueled by U.S. President Donald Trump’s annexation threats and trade war. #MomSky #Voices4Victory apnews.com/article/cana...
This administration’s twisted disdain for regular Americans is out of control. GOP Medicaid cuts will hurt senior citizens who cared for all of us their whole lives, and republicans would rather watch them suffer and die in order to give millionaires tax cuts. Hands Off Our Medicaid #MomSky
In 1939, Sir Nicholas Winton quietly organized the rescue of 669 precious Jewish children from Nazi occupied land, giving them at a chance in life. While sitting in an audience, the host reveals he is surrounded by people who were the very same children he saved long ago. #MomSky #Voices4Victory
“If it weren’t for Medicaid, we’d be in big trouble.” Medicaid is survival, not a luxury. Republicans want to rip it away from families like Victoria’s. We won’t let them. We fight for dignity, we fight for care. We fight for Cole!🔥 #HandsOffOurMedicaid @littlelobbyists.bsky.social
Trump has frozen, stalled or disrupted $430 billion in federal funds — from disease research to Head Start for children to disaster aid — programs used by countless Americans. Why is it difficult to understand he doesn’t care about American citizens? #MomSky
Medicaid gives millions access to doctors, hospitals, meds, and preventive care. But this week, Rs are pushing to gut Medicaid so they can give tax cuts for billionaires. Without Medicaid, families could face crushing medical debt and bankruptcy. #HandsOffOurMedicaid
Supreme Court hears arguments on case about FBI raid on wrong Georgia home. Trina Martin revives the lawsuit she filed after agents broke down her door before dawn in 2017, pointing guns at her then-boyfriend and terrifying her 7-year-old son. #MomSky #Voices4Victory apnews.com/article/supr...
Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre will lose his own seat in Parliament. The loss of his seat representing his Ottawa district during Monday’s election capped a stunning decline in fortunes for Poilievre. #MomSky #Voices4Victory apnews.com/article/cana...
Thank god for these federal judges. If you think diversity, equity, and inclusion are bad, 1- you don’t understand the full concept of DEI and 2- you trivialize that concept to be about race only. So I’m gonna go out on a very short limb and say you’re likely racist. #MomSky
#ProudBlue Sen. Booker & Minority Leader Jeffries held a sit-in on the Capitol steps Sunday. At the conclusion, Booker said this: “Will you stand up, and hold up your light? Will you stand up and demand justice? Will you stand up and say, ‘Not on my watch!’” This is our call to action! Let’s roll!
Hegseth had the nerve to say women weren’t fit for combat and military standards were lowered to accept women. He forgot military standards as well as security standards were thrown out for him to get his job? And he still reports to his wife. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory apple.news/AQhUSOa2YTy6...
Instagram @senchrismurphy, “Corruption on Steroids.” 🚨 Trump, family & friends cash in on the Presidency. 📌 While CEO’s, Foreign Oligarchs, Billionaires & Tech Bros rig the system. 🚨This is no longer authoritarianism—it’s where fascism thrives & dictatorship isn’t a threat but the business model.
AOC nails it: " We'll rally every corner of the United States of America until we save Medicaid and Medicare for every American, until we defend social security, and we tell them who's really in charge in this country." The fight isn’t over! Make your voice heard! #HandsOffOurMedicaid
#ResistanceEarth #BlueEarth #Voices4Victory Trump has summarily fired all 400 contributors to the National Climate Assessment. Their next report, which is mandated by Congress, was due in 2028. Trump had previously canceled funding used to coordinate the project. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...
Medicaid is a requirement for my son. W/out it, he wouldn’t have access to things like wheelchairs, medicine for his seizures, communication device, therapy, etc. Billionaire tax breaks, or taking care of the kids who need it? The choice is easy for me! Make your voices heard! #HandsOffOurMedicIs
Former U.S. Rep Beto O’Rourke will speak in Tuscaloosa on May 1, 5:00 pm, Snow Hinton Park, to address the Tide Against Trump at the University of Alabama. Please attend this rally to show your opposition to the authoritarianism of Regime 2.0! Ignore the felon’s pre-commencement speech!
#ResistanceUnited #Voices4Victory Rural hospitals are the only source of healthcare for millions of Americans. Often, they are also the largest employer in the community. But rural hospitals depend on Medicaid, and cuts could force 190 of them to close. www.americanprogress.org/article/medi...
Thanks to Trump, Canadians have watched a cluster fuck unfold before their eyes. Electing Mark Carney as Prime Minister was their polite way of telling Trump to fuck off.💙 #ProudBlue #TrumpIsALoser Canadian Elections #TrumpIsaNationalDisgrace #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpIsAnEmbarassment
Republicans are trying to do what they said they wouldn't: Take apart Medicaid, which is a frontal assault on Americans. THEY WILL KILL US. Women giving birth, children, our elders. Call your Congressional representatives, GOP or Dem, at (202) 224-3121 and tell them: #HandsOffOurMedicaid
White House launches attack on 'hostile' Amazon over tariffs while marking Trump’s 100 days. It follows reports suggesting the online retailer will soon show consumers how much Trump’s tariffs are adding to the cost of its products. #MomSky #Voices4Victory www.bbc.com/news/live/cp...
💥 BREAKING: The Heritage Foundation withdrew its anti-DEI proposal to IBM for shareholder vote today, originally submitted for vote at IBM's annual meeting. Why Heritage withdrew its anti-DEI proposal is unknown. Earlier today, shareholders at American Express voted to reject an anti-DEI proposal.
🚨 Hundreds of community safety grants, which helped cut gun violence by up to 70%, abruptly canceled — and millions of dollars in critical funding wiped away. The programs are for crime victims, mental health and hate crime support, and the DOJ says it’s “wasteful spending.” bit.ly/3EJmsee
#ResistanceRoots Rodger Wilton Young was born on this day in 1918 in Tiffin, Ohio. Young was nearly deaf and blind but nevertheless served in the U.S. Army in WWII. He was killed on New Georgia in the Solomon Islands, intentionally drawing fire so that his unit could escape a Japanese ambush. /1
Roughly four in ten US births are funded by Medicaid. 🧑🍼🍼🚼👩🍼 So, send pictures of babies to your elected officials. Ask them how many newborns they'd like to harm with their cuts to Medicaid. Because they're either pro-BABIES or pro-tax cuts for the rich. They cannot be both! #HandsOffOurMedicaid
Studies have found that immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than U.S.-born Americans, but nonetheless, the convicted criminal who sits in the WH decided it was a good use of taxpayer $$ to create this garish racist stunt to distract from his poll numbers. 1/4 www.youtube.com/shorts/E8Nyz...
@jbpritzker.bsky.social sends a strong message to Dems calling us to fight and to have massive protests, and says it’s “time to stop thinking we can reason or negotiate with a madman”. He called on Dems to be “bold and our ideas fearless…. And we must deliver on that agenda for working families...”
The GOP’s plan is clear: Gut Medicaid. Slash SNAP. Sacrifice millions of Americans—while throwing $150 billion more to the Pentagon and letting Trump chase a $1 TRILLION war budget. They’re not protecting America. They’re bleeding it dry. We have to fight back. #HandsOffOurMedicaid
100 days in for Trump and there are No trade deals No truce in Ukraine No cease fire in Gaza No decrease in grocery prices There are: Farmers needing bailouts Pending recession Lowest stock market since Nixon DOGE stealing our data. #Loser #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory apple.news/AZHAVhU61Tly...
Stephanie Ruhle made a key connection b/w Trump’s destructive auto tariffs & the ‘guy on the line’ he swore he’d help. Auto unions accepted a bargain for profit sharing. As Trump hurts US auto maker profits, auto workers get less pay. He HURTS the ‘guy on the line.’ Lies, hypocrisy & harm.
Trump thinks he runs the world. Due to Trump’s asanine policies the world is going ahead without the US. He has turned the US into a third world country that will soon need the rest of the world to bail us out. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory apple.news/Ag5HQAh7cSoq...
Immigrant mothers are to blame for their US citizen children being deported, says Trump’s border czar: ‘Parenting 101.’ Tom Homan defended Trump’s deportation of children with United States citizenship. #MomSky #Voices4Victory share.newsbreak.com/ctzsw273?s=i16
🚨Trump signs a National Security Memorandum. Declares large sections of 3 contiguous states—170 mi along the Southern Border as a military base. 📌U.S troops authorized to search, arrest & use crowd control on U.S. soil = the start of an Authoritarian Takeover‼️ www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...
Mark Carney yesterday in Saskatoon. Mark has a plan to deal with Trump and his tariffs! Canada is so fortunate to have Mark leading us and I am fully confident he will guide us down the right path to economic success! #!MarkCarney4PM #NeverPierrePoilievre #CanadaStayUnited #ElbowsUp #USDemocracy
Newsner: Trump's blue suit paled in comparison to the other things he did during the Pope's funeral ceremony, including using his phone, sleeping, and chewing gum, all while sitting in the front row. #ProudBlue #TrumpIsaNationalDisgrace #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpIsAGlobalEmbarassment
Anyone in Canada envying our predicament should join us! Just fail to show up to vote for Carney today. If you’re into judges being arrested, people disappeared, history rewritten, your personal info being hacked, journalists threatened, universities attacked, C’MON DOWN! #DemVoice1
#ResistanceUnited #Voices4Victory Trump is taking a page straight from the Nazi playbook by creating a National Motherhood Award for women have have six or more children. Naturally, Trump is trying to do it on the cheap, offering just a one-time $5,000 payment while also cutting vital programs. /1
#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited Felon Trump promised to fix the economy on Day 1. Nearly 100 days in, and look what’s happening! Prices have increased, the debt is rising, and the stock market has been a seesaw. And there’s horrifying news in our country every damn day. #ItsAClusterfuck #FUBAR
