Touché.

Two weeks is 47's way of meaning "manana."

To Alaskans:

At least Elon's bomb of a rocket blew up on the launch pad this time, rather than raining down debris across hundreds of miles.

NPR's new lawsuit is a powerhouse, identifying multiple, independent ways the Trump administration violated the Constitution in order to take revenge on public media. Bottom line? This administration is scared of the truth & this lawsuit reveals that weakness. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

The fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. It may not be the battle we wanted, but it is the one we face. The state of our democracy and the future of our country depends on our willingness to take risks, ignore the naysayers, weather setbacks and fight fiercely for democracy.

I truly enjoyed Katie's show on MSNBC, and it was a tragedy that they canceled her show. So glad she's now working with MeidasTouch and continuing her high-quality reporting.

Federal judge dresses down Alina Habba: "Your role is not to secure convictions at all costs, nor to satisfy public clamor, nor to advance political agendas. Your allegiance is to the impartial application of the law, to the pursuit of truth and to the upholding of due process for all."

Watched "Colossus The Forbin Project" for the first time in many years. Still remembered many scenes. It's more relevant now than ever, with the rise of AI. #film #SciFi

We are the STORM....

So with A/G Pam Bondi go after the US Capitol Police for their anti-Christian arrest of Rev. Barber?

They probably traded beauty secrets as well.

Trump says you can't tax the rich because they'll leave the country. If they relocate permanently to another country, they can't contribute to US political campaigns. #TaxTheRich

Couldn't happen to a doge-ier fella.

Excellent! Well Done, Pope!

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

Good Friday Now open.substack.com/pub/dianabut... Remember the cross was and is a tool of imperial violence.

Hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

In case, after everything else, you still think Trump isn't Putin's Useful Idiot.

He should lose his seat in 2026, because he definitely deserves it.

Don’t forget to Vote! This is a very important election Canada!

Needs to be said.

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

Always looking out for the people.

Good question. Why DOES Pete Hegseth have a Russian phone number? 🤨

What people in every part of higher education need to understand is that Republicans now want to do to universities what they’ve tried to do to labor unions: erase them from the institutional landscape. The question is how much you want to collaborate in your own destruction.

Of course they are.

May Musk and the Doge boys get lost on Mars as soon as possible.

2022: "The Supreme Court would NEVER overturn Roe v. Wade!" 2025: "The administration would NEVER take away Social Security!"

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks… “The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government. 🧵

Photo of the Day. Some hope.

Good morning,

It is easy to overlook the small, but in incredibly important changes, Trump is making in our country

Murphy for Senate Dem leader

An oldie but goodie…

Trump’s “Shock & Awe” agenda is unbelievable and maddening! They’re destroying as much as they can, as quickly as they can. It’s as though the goal is to eliminate or degrade all benefits and services possible to the American people…

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.” WOW. Planes in air must turn around. A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

The eventual fate of the GOP

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.
