Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

The war on women continues, and some will die. The Trump admin announced on Tuesday that it would revoke guidance to the nation’s hospitals that directed them to provide emergency abortions for women when they are necessary to stabilize their medical condition. apnews.com/article/abor...

I am genuinely unsure what "unprecedented" could mean here.

A lot of government workers go unnoticed—until they’re gone. The problem with letting the ultra-rich call the shots is they don’t see us. To them, we’re disposable… until the day they need clean water, a working 911 line, or someone to put out the fire.

This RECALL THURSDAY is brought to you by WORKING CARBON MONOXIDE ALARMS! When you absolutely must detect an unseeable, unsmellable, and unlivable poisonous gas called carbon monoxide, NOTHING works better than WORKING CARBON MONOXIDE ALARMS!

Trump continues to claim that migrants bring crime, although factual data shows otherwise. That's how propaganda works: repeat the lie over & over so enough people believe it,despite seeing experts explain established facts. MAGA,this is how your cult leader controls you #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

“She means ‘fewer.’” - a Harvard graduate

So Trump is trying to destroy one of our greatest educational institutions Which will potentially help our enemies in China Art of the deal, baby

It doesn’t get more corrupt than this. Trump pardoned a tax cheat after his mom attended a $1 million dinner and helped push a smear campaign against Biden. This is pay-to-play at its dirtiest.

It's also a misunderstanding of what the grants are for. It's not a billion dollar donation, Harvard won the grants to do specific research that it is in a relatively unique position to do. Trade schools aren't going to be able to take over, eg, Harvard's cancer immunotherapy research.

This is indeed what they are going to do if we don’t stop them.

Even after all this, the @nytimes continues to normalize it

It’s Nippon. Not Nissan. Nissan is cars. Nippon is steel. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Reminder: When companies pay less than a living wage and don’t offer healthcare, their workers are forced to rely on taxpayer-funded social safety nets like Medicaid and SNAP. That’s not a handout to workers. That’s a handout to the companies exploiting them.

Why are more than 300 people in the US still dying from COVID every week? abcnews.go.com/Health/300-p...

Ever since “Russia if you’re listening” corruption and criming out in the open is still corruption and criming

The U.S. was undergoing a real manufacturing revival under Biden, led by semiconductors and clean tech. Trump’s extreme tariffs are now derailing that progress—raising costs, disrupting supply chains, and sabotaging America’s industrial resurgence. (US Census, 2025)

Absolute clown show. The original tariff deadline lasted 2 days. Governing on vibes and the whims of the last person Trump speaks to is not sustainable.

Woke Grok strikes again 😭

This week, the Secretary of Homeland Security showed she did not even know what the term "habeas corpus" meant. It was a truly pathetic moment, but also truly representative of the embarrassing ignorance of this administration and their lack of respect for the rule of law. #ResistTrump

Jamie Raskin on the Crypto Dinner: “PAY TO PLAY BUFFET” 🤑 💸 🪙

This is the woman who just got promoted to press secretary for the Department of Defense “Proud to be an enemy of globalist Ukraine”

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but something good happened, in Ohio of all places, and I wanted to share…

Just a letter denying North Carolina FEMA relief

So we’ve got $90 million to throw the parade he wanted, but we don’t have the money to fix North Carolina. Got it!

Mandate 🤔

#MomSky Keep Reposting

A good time to throw up obstacles to getting people vaccinated.

All of NIH funding to Northwestern University is frozen. This pause includes noncompeting approved funding, new and competing grants with fundable scores. No reimbursements for money already spent have been received since March. This situation is rarely reported so please Please get the word out!

The cruelty is the point.

Congratulations, North Carolina. You’re on your own and your FEMA request is “not warranted.” Read ⬇️

This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social

Trump is killing America's small farms: www.washingtonpost.com/nation/inter...

WCK will have free meals available in Missouri for first responders and community members impacted by the tornadoes at the locations listed here: wck.org/news/meal-lo.... Share with anyone in the area in need of support. #ChefsForMissouri

It would be very easy, newsworthy and get a lot of clicks for the national political media to make a "drumbeat" scandal out of the numerous trump pardon recipients who have committed more crimes since being pardoned. They don't do it because they like Trump

It’s still hard for me to believe that after so many years of deranged posts like this, we’ve still never had a serious national conversation about this man’s mental health.

Does it matter if the pilot has never landed an aircraft before?
