- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinRand Paul: "There has to be an investigation. I don't know who trusts an investigation done by DHS when they're the ones calling this person an 'assassin,' a 'domestic terrorist,' saying he was assaulting police. How can they be in charge of an independent investigation? Something's got to happen."
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinIt’s common and sort of understandable to see Miller as this evil genius. Important to remember he’s actually a complete fucking moron who, when he got a chance, immediately engineered a PR disaster that shitcanned Trump’s best-polling issue. Always the way with these types.

All these Tough Guys would be *helpless* on their own.
- I am just gonna say it, these guys are completely emasculated by the knowledge that they have been out-organized by a group that is significantly made up of women, and all the bullshit call of duty nonsense is cope for their wounded egos bsky.app/profile/jeet...

- Reposted by Mike Rubinsteinthese guys are LARPing like siege commanders talking about "supply lines" rightoids literally cannot comprehend the idea of a community caring for their own; these people live in Minneapolis their supply line is a five minute drive to the grocery store
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinLot of conservative dudes out there telling on themselves by being astounded by a level of ”logistics” that the average mom has to manage every fucking day
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinRemember the Bundy insanity during the Obama years? Armed guys occupied a federal office and one of their buddies took position with a sniper rifle aimed at federal agents? Exactly how many of those guys were shot and killed?
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinIt’s hard to overstate how freakish it is for law enforcement who just shot someone to be shuffled off to other assignments with no investigative period at all.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinIt is the position of the Trump Administration that its agents can come into any state and city in America (let alone other countries) and kill people and that state and city have no jurisdiction to inquire about it. Treat any Trump official accordingly.

- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinThe shooting in Minnesota is a reminder that while authoritarian governments may justify abuses of power by directing them at scapegoats or vulnerable populations, the goal is ultimately to deploy them against anyone they wish to www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinThis is not the law.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinLike a lot of you, I'm going through a lot of different feelings (on a regular basis) around the ICE shooting yesterday, and my advice continues to be the same every single time: 1) Allow yourself space to feel your feelings, get support, etc. 2) Organize, w/discipline. Links in thread.
- Reposted by Mike Rubinstein"Secret police" is often misunderstood to mean a force that operates covertly, with all their operations secret. But a secret police force's actions are often public. The secret part is hiding their identities, because they're breaking laws to hurt politically disfavored people, and fear reprisals.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinThis is *definitely* how you behave when you're trying to bring every resource to bear, rather than trying to cover up the unlawful behavior of your own personnel.

- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinI got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinIn response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work." The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting. And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinRight, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels. The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinGot buried in the news this weekend, but President Jesus said the F word on CNN at like 2pm in the afternoon. The next day he posted a poop-filled scat video, but tell Me more about the dignity of the office of the presidency.

- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinOK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California. Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinThank you to everyone at the #NO_KINGS rallies for making your voices heard & being part of history. The massive crowds were joyful, passionate & spectacular! So were the signs...
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinWait, the joke Jay Jones used that's from the 1950's? They're really crying about that? Republicans really are the softest, most fragile people on earth.
- Reposted by Mike Rubinstein#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #DV1 @aoc.bsky.social and @sanders.senate.gov refuse to support your suffering. While Republicans fund permanent tax cuts for the ultra-rich, you are pushed out of the healthcare system or faced with higher ACA premiums. ⬇️In their own words. 🙏Share.

[This post could not be retrieved] - Reposted by Mike RubinsteinThe GOP’s Big Lie: “Dems want free healthcare for undocumented people!!” Reality: hospitals spent <1% of Medicare funds on emergency care for undocumented people from 2017–23. They hype pennies while slashing care for millions of Americans and sending $20 BILLION to Argentina.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinWatching this makes it clear. They are gaslighting America over pennies while immigrants pay billions they’ll never use. It’s a distraction from the Epstein files, job losses, shrinking GDP and the widening trade deficit. Don’t get distracted. Stay focused. #EpsteinFiles #TrumpsShutdown
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinBoth sides is a lie, but it's all they got. Lie about a line the other side crossed so they can cross that line themselves. Been watching that go on my entire life.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinA new KFF study reports: 24 million Americans will see their health care premiums under the Affordable Care Act DOUBLE. Further, 15 million people will be thrown off their health care entirely. Unacceptable. We can’t subject millions of Americans to this unnecessary suffering.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinIf Trump can unilaterally deny California, and others, the funding they are legally entitled to… then maybe California should unilaterally cease paying the federal taxes the administration is “entitled” to if they are acting legally!!!!
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinWarrior ethos? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 There are women out there who actually do pull ups the correct way, not the Kegseth’s “my pull ups are about as good as my whiskey dick” way.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinJust having a moment reflecting on what a ridiculous state we're in, where the president is making "deals" with private universities by personally meddling in federally allocated education and research funding and this is being treated as just ordinary politics.
- Reposted by Mike Rubinsteinthis is an especially good thing to hammer because it wedges the WH away from congressional Republicans
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinWe don’t need saving but I’m tired of billionaire owned media driving the narrative. Plenty of Dems are doing all they can despite having their hands tied behind their backs. Are they perfect? No, but neither are we! So proud of each politician listed even though I also sometimes curse them. #Dems
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinThe Democrats should "bargain" with the Republicans and say that they will give up fighting for healthcare for undocumented migrants if the Republicans agree to extend the ACA and Medicaid for citizens.
- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinWhen you have an administration that so constantly, shamelessly, openly lies, pretty soon there’s no faith in any information streams coming from the administration, so there’s no way to convey true information in a way that lands right, which leads to more chaos.

- Reposted by Mike RubinsteinI really miss having a President who works for the American people. One who acts in a kind and integrity-driven, trustworthy manner. Someone who not just leads the US, but can influence the world. We need new leadership and a team who can pack a big punch and fight fire with fire. Fight back. 🇺🇸
