In many countries at the moment it is like no one needs journalists who think for themselves. It's like the world has gone crazy. 😱 Remember what Jim Acosta said. "Don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to the fear. Hold on to the truth and to hope."

Good morning everyone Today is D-DAY Honor the HEROES Today marks the 81st anniversary of 156,000 strategically landing of British, Canadian, and AMERICAN troops on the beaches of Normandy. They were all so young and brave... Honor Them All This meme touches my heart Fight Fascism

Citizens United amounts to legalized bribery – plain and simple.

Law Firms- don’t cave. Remember your moral code and the survival of freedoms in our country. During this crisis, be the person your kids & grandkids can be proud of. Unify. Stand together. Be strong

When Trump launched these tariffs, most of us who are not economists did some research only to discover that Trump knows less than we do. Chilling discovery. It appears that his goal is to get other counties to grovel to him. There is nothing in it for us

In America last year, nearly 40 million workers made less than $17 an hour. Unacceptable. Nobody in America can make it on $7.25 an hour, $9 an hour or $12 an hour. We need an economy in which all of our workers earn a living wage.

Musk says millions of dead people get Social Security. That's a lie. Here's the truth: 30,000 people die a year waiting for an understaffed Social Security to approve disability benefits. Musk's plan to cut Social Security's staff by 50% will make this tragic reality even worse.

What Trump/Vance did today by attacking Zelensky using Putin's talking points would be like in 1940 FDR openly mocking Winston Churchill using Hitler's talking points as the Nazis bombed London. This was TREASONOUS!

Just discovered that there's playable versions of Centipede and Asteroids on the AARP web site and now I need to sit down and dissolve into a pile of dust www.aarp.org/games/catego...

šŸ’™Crazy MakingšŸ’™ Pathological abusers don’t just manipulate facts; they erase, rewrite, and distort until nothing feels certain. Over time, victims internalize the confusion, doubting their own perceptions, memories, and instincts. #SurvivorMusic #PathologicalAbuse #MusicSky

As a mom to a son with Cerebral Palsy, Autism, & a rare epilepsy, my son relies on funding from DHHS (Medicaid) for his care. RFK Jr scares me. He isn’t just unqualified, he’s dangerous. For the safety of all, he should be nowhere near DHHS. šŸ’™

For people wondering where my "Green Line" is:

Dear friends of BlueSky 🧵 BLACK HISTORY MONTH Hope you all read and learn of the late great Audre Lorde A FEARLESS VOICE FOR JUSTICE Audre was an American writer, professor, philosopher, poet, feminist, and civil rights activist. She described herself as a "Black, lesbian, warrior

WOW: "ā€˜There will be many casualties’: Panama girds for war as Trump’s team teases a deal" This is real - the nation of Panama is preparing for an attack by the US. Trump has now become no different than Putin. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

All humanitarian aid agencies suspended. PEPFAR,combating HIV globally, has saved abt 26 lives. Until now they tested & supplied meds to 20M. PEPFAR was providing HIV treatment to 680,000 pregnant women. A 90 day stop means abt 136,000 babies infected. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: ā€œWe grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.ā€

Rise and shine blueys!

This is what we mean when we talk about corporate greed: Starbucks gave its CEO $96 million for just 4 months of work. Meanwhile, Starbucks is refusing to offer a raise of more than 50 cents an hour to 12,000 union workers. That's unacceptable. Starbucks must end their greed.

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea. Ā  In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.Ā  Let's steal those ideas.

I have never seen anyone flip as quickly as Robert F. Kennedy did on the question of whether a woman has the right to control her own body.

I'm going to see people empowered. That is the mission. We stand at a threshold like never before. We stand together in the challenging times ahead of us. While others sow conflict, we sow unity. Mark my words: 2025 will be the year of personal empowerment.

Do you wonder why you haven’t heard much about this massive TB outbreak recently? Cuz the CDC can’t hold any press conferences or issue public statements of any kind. abcnews.go.com/Health/kansa...

It started with conspiracy and propaganda then evolved into dehumanisation - spreading distrust, fear and disgust about the target. The powerless were given a group to blame, the illusion of power. The techniques used now are the same. It’ll only happen again if people let it. Sadly, they are…
