Serendipitously ended up joining #Pride in Rome today…so much solidarity, love and defiance 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇵🇸🇮🇹❤️❤️❤️

This hits hard.

Salt Lake City, Utah, and Boise, Idaho, adopted official Pride flags on Tuesday in response to state laws barring the display of any nonofficial flags at schools and government buildings.

Does Neil deGrasse Tyson Believe in God?

I remain proud AF to have voted for both of these brilliant supremely qualified women, I’ll never regret it.

Good morning Blue sky! I think it's going to be a little bit of both 😁. But in a good way 😆. I hope you have a great day!

Turns out you can shape the agenda with dramatic action and maybe even shift public opinion. Crazy.

Happy #Easter Weekend! 🤣

Honestly, me too.

An elevator pitch of two minutes or fewer. That's my metric for the health of the Democratic Party. If any given member of this party can't explain to a random voter, in two minutes or fewer, in full confidence, who our leaders are and want they want to do for the country in 2026, that's a problem.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

“Many people don’t realize how high the American quality of life is because of the competent & stable enforcement of regulations, &if that goes away a lot of lives are at risk,” said Steve Cicala… “This affects airplane safety, baby formula safety, the safety of meat, vegetables and packaged foods…”

Anyone who thinks Pete Hegseth will resign doesn't understand TrumpWorld. They have no shame. They have no introspection. They have no respect for consequences.

This is the first of what I think are going to be A LOT of primary challenges along these lines.

Good trouble is coming

these are our party leaders now, ignore all other opinions

@karaswisher.bsky.social What are your thought on “Careless People”? I doubt you are surprised….

London

New from me: A school district in Pennsylvania voted against adding a Black author's book about the 1921 Tulsa race massacre to the curriculum. Then, the community decided to do something about it.

AOC: It's really because Republicans— they’re very thin skinned and they're very sensitive, and their feelings are very easily hurt. And so they have to vote on censure resolutions.

it’s hard to know what the fuck this country looks like in 2028 but one thing I remain convinced of is that the Dem nominee will be whatever governor does the best job standing up to this shit and so far Pritzker and Walz are the front runners

I’m not going to the Joint Address. I will be live posting and chatting with you all here instead. Then going on IG Live after.

Costco, Apple, John Deere shareholders told anti-DEI bigots to go away. Look for the same at upcoming shareholder meetings at companies like Levi Strauss, American Express, and many others! #DEI fortune.com/2025/02/28/c...

Goldman Sachs is still publicly stating its commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).

Who else AGREES with the very-vocal, very passionate heroine, Jasmine Crockett?! 🤚 We. Need. More. Of. This. ✨

💥 BREAKING: At Apple's 2025 annual meeting of shareholders today, proposal entitled “Request to Cease DEI Efforts" is rejected by shareholders. Right-wing nonprofit National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR) proposal was also rejected by Costco shareholders 98-2 percent.

True hero.

Folks are asking, “what should I do in this moment?” One of the most passionate, progressive voices in Congress for 30 years, Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden answers that question. Here’s our conversation, inside a replica of the Senate chamber at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute: youtu.be/n_nQ-Moa9fI?...

Just because we all need something cute to start our day…

Exactly right

I’m so worried for where we have sunk too in our country. Trump, musk theil Zuckerberg Bezos Running a country is not running a business. It’s to serve and protect its citizens. Not make a profit for those in power

🇺🇦🇺🇸👀

They finally got it didn't they.🙄 @goddardcartoons.bsky.social

After the words “transgender” and “queer” were removed from the National Park Service’s website for the Stonewall National Monument, a landmark of the LGBTQ pride movement in New York City, protesters filled nearby Christopher Park Friday with a simple message: “You can’t erase us.”

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

BARK!!! 2025
