It’s crazy how much open corruption and nepotism is accepted as normal in this administration. It’s completely unacceptable that Trump accepts lavish gifts while getting ready to kick millions of Americans off their health care.

This is what brain drain looks like in practice. Highly educated, highly skilled people in the sciences who will now be working minimum wage to make ends meet. A net loss for society.

Closing Saturday. #photography

What horseshit from DOD that they "mistakenly" deleted pages on the Navajo Code Talkers, black Medal of Honor recipients, Jackie Robinson, and more. They labeled them DEI and deleted them and then got caught and now they're scrambling. Nobody changes a URL by mistake. Constant lies.

See you all out there. Pretty sure I’ll be speaking at the LA one

“You sad, shitty human,” said Lincoln Project founder Rick Wilson. “You know the damage to America this will do in the world, but can’t resist the lure of power and Trump’s approval.”

So Romania, Serbia, Hungary. People rising up against authoritarianism. Clearly, we’re up soon.

Companies with a representation of women exceeding 30% (which puts them in the top quartile) are significantly more likely to perform well financially than those with 30% or fewer, and top quartile for ethnic diversity show an average “financial advantage” of 27% over others.

I'm giving a ZOOM talk about the work in my exhibition currently on view at The Photographer's Eye Gallery in Escondido. March 19. 2pm HI time, 5 pm PDT, 8pm EDT. Info here: bit.ly/41ZWL1I #artisttalk #contemporaryphotography #photography #femalesinphotography #womanphotographer

Please take some time to look at this feature I wrote for @analogforever.bsky.social. It's filled with amazing work by women who are working with film and analog process photography. www.analogforevermagazine.com/features-int... #photography #womeninphotography #filmphotography

Today is #InternationalWomensDay, and today and every day, we celebrate and honor women. We tell the stories of incredible women who have fought for equality and blazed a trail. We fight side-by-side for equality and women’s rights.

That is exactly true.

In Minnesota, we value the people who care for our veterans, even if DOGE doesn’t. If Trump fired you, come work for the State of Minnesota and help take care of our vets.

Going on the record on this: everybody having civil rights is good

PHOTOS: Democrats protested President Trump throughout his address to Congress in a variety of ways tonight.

I walked out of Trump’s Joint Address. I couldn’t listen to the incessant lies anymore. Trump’s actions have demonstrated nothing but contempt for our Constitution, our country and its people. He’s corrupting our government, selling it to billionaires, and making hard-working Americans pay for it.

If you want to see Dems fight back, celebrate the Dems who are fighting back like this.

Trump is saying “America is back” but he’s putting America last. Now more than ever we must come together to demand our elected leaders stand up for our communities and stand up to Trump’s billionaires-first agenda.

This is an embarrassment. If you are a Virginian and don't like this, let your senator who is up for reelection know.

Two market meltdowns. One common denominator.

Every single Democrat should be doing this.

We cannot control the actions of the White House. But we can control how we respond. Yesterday, we took additional actions to protect our public servants, our communities, and our economy. go.md.gov/FactSheet-ActionsForFederalWorkers

DAILY DEMS DOING THE WORK, MAKING NOISE, AND FIGHTING BACK Day 34 Today I attended a zoom with @raskin.house.gov and @repstansbury.bsky.social substack.com/@ariellaelm/... So on top of what we can see, like what’s in this post, there’s a lot of bts too. On that note, here’s today’s fighters 🧵

Here. I’ll help. “Breaking News: President Volodymyr Zelensky embarrasses Trump and Vance in a tense, White House meeting by standing up to their ignorant, childish bullying and proving once again why he is the hero the rest of the world knows him to be.” You’re welcome.

Here’s a story: I sat the at the WH press room working on my newsletter. Suddenly I get a Bluetooth request as if someone wants to send me something. I turned around - RT reporter He requests again.. and again..I accept - some handwritten note in russian. I sent a dick pic back and blocked him.

Vance and Trump are, for all practical purposes, Russian foreign assets. Zelenskyy has more patriotism, decency and commitment to democracy than these two will ever know.

And some speechwriter for Trump just underlines the horror of how the American President and VP acted. Shameful.

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower. Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.

What a shameful and disgusting display going on in the Oval Office. I'm ashamed to be an American.

This underscores how unpopular #Project2025 is with ordinary Americans. You’d think Trump, Musk, and the Speaker might adjust course. Kidding!

NOT GOOD #womenrights #19thammendment

Attention working-class Americans: Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security. Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

"All of us in front of the camera understand deeply, viscerally how important their work is and how essential they are. And all of us are committed fully to supporting them in any way we can. Without producers, there is no show," says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on the MSNBC staff.
