The ignorance of this administration is jaw-dropping. On Wednesday, Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA) asked Education Secretary Linda McMahon if teaching the Tulsa Race Massacre or Ruby Bridges counted as “illegal DEI.” McMahon wouldn’t give a straight yes or no. That says everything.

Let’s be honest. It is currently a dictatorship. When Homeland Security can be “creative” with everyone’s rights without Justice saying hold up, and FBI is participating; we are all fucked. The for profit Detention centers are getting 120k a head. They will pay them to hold you

RFK Jr says healthy kids do not need the COVID vaccine. Next up will be all childhood vaccines. PARENTS: Beware. RFK Jr does not know what he is talking about. We give vaccines to keep kids healthy. Vaccines are safe, they work. The diseases they prevent are awful. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/w...

Rep. Crockett IS THAT GIRL!!! She speaks the truth with exacting precision in laypersons terms. If the @housedemocrats.bsky.social are smart, they will make @repjasmine.bsky.social the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee. She is one of the most effective communicators we have!

The book I really want to read is whatever Pete Buttigieg is hopefully writing. 🤞 Judging by Pete's first two books, it would probably be more focused on introspection, political thought, and lessons for the future than on any gossipy stuff.

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

RFK Jr. is absolutely poisonous. He has now caused Dr. Lakshmi Panagiotakopoulos, the person in charge of COVID19 vaccinations at the CDC, to resign. She did so because RFK Jr. demanded that the experts in charge of vaccine guidance listen to him and not to the scientific evidence.

“The wealth and income levels are so skewed between very top and bottom that “average” indicators are no longer meaningful. The top 0.1% now own as much of the US wealth as the bottom 90%. The last time that happened was in the 1930s, when populism surged and helped lead to WWII.” -Jonathan Tepper

Marilyn Monroe, born 99 years ago today. When Ella Fitzgerald couldn’t get booked at the Mocambo Club because she was Black, Monroe (at the height of her own fame) called the owner and told him if he booked Ella, she would take a front table every night. And she did. #RIP
