The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025. This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Thoughts on boycotts: inflict pain on the corporation. Buying a couple 99 cent ebooks from a self-published author on Amazon is fine. Don’t buy a microwave on it. Purity is never the answer. Restraint though and thoughtfulness is.

This is not time for "politics as usual". Promoting decorum while democracy is crumbling is like saying, "Thank you for holding the door" as you are led into the gas chamber to be executed. @repmoskowitz.bsky.social @gluesenkampperez.house.gov @tomsuozzi.bsky.social @repjeffries.bsky.social

These are the Democrats who crossed party lines to vote with the MAGA cult to censure Rep. Al. Green. Vichy collaborators, the lot of ‘em! #FightForDemocracy #ResistMAGAFascism

Such petty attempts at insults, and based in complete ignorance at that, are the last refuge of someone who has lost their argument but refuses to concede like an adult.

Ahead of the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday, I'm joining Rep. Terri Sewell to reintroduce the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to protect the right of all Americans to vote without tricks & laws of suppression. Let's summon the moral purpose of the great Congressman Lewis.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

“We’re not going anywhere. What’s more: we’re expanding.” Nearly a dozen of Minnesota’s foremost experts on gender-affirming care collaborated on this beautiful op-ed in today’s Strib. No paywall.
