This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

I wonder what President Musk will do next…

US election rigged

When Jesus helped the poor & those in need, R's call it Christianity. When Dems help the poor & those in need, R's call it left-wing radicalism, when it's really just basic humanity. #ProudBlue Christian #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice Department of Education #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

They are who we think they are

2,300,000,000,000 cut from Medicaid! Fuck off Republicanazis!

Here is Judge Paul Engelmayer’s remarkable TRO barring (in effect) DOGE from accessing Treasury’s payment system & ordering (in effect) any DOGE person who has had access to destroy anything already copied. A short thread ... www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

FACT: USAID funded projects in 120 countries - fighting epidemics, educating children, providing clean water, supporting life saving work. Now nurses laid off, clinics closed in 25 countries where 2/3 of all child deaths occur. All because of Trump’s inflated ego.

URGENT: The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses!

A teen DOGE staffer recently given access to government systems worked at a startup known for hiring convicted hackers. Someone using a Telegram handle associated with him also solicited a cyberattack-for-hire service in 2022. All raising questions about his vetting. www.wired.com/story/edward...

Never forget the evil of the Nazis and never forgive those who praise or follow their ideology.

A wee little heads up for those of you telling me to “cry harder” right now… open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...

(Meanwhile virologists are becoming increasingly concerned about H5N1…)

New from @francescadnunz.bsky.social: Trump's pick for top drug enforcer, Derek Maltz, formerly worked at PenLink, a Nebraska-based tech firm that has sold software that can track phone locations without a warrant to agencies like ICE and Texas DPS.

Meanwhile… at the US military academy….White nationalism continues to run rampant & the #MSM doesnt find it news worthy. #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #UnitedWeStand

List: Examples of Trump’s Actions That Are Defying Legal Limits .. FFS. He is breaking the law. just say it. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

NEW: Federal prosecutors fired over their involvement in Jan. 6 cases walk into the U.S. Attorney’s Office to drop off their computers, etc.

Day # 10 The list

A large emergency response has been dispatched to Reagan National Airport for reports of an aircraft crash Video from the Kennedy Center webcam appears to show the collision and crash www.arlnow.com/2025/01/29/b...

My mom, who came here legally when she was 21 and is a US citizen, just called me crying about this story. She said she's going to make copies of her driver's license, passport and naturalization certificate to keep in her car and purse. This is what we said would happen.

I found this

As rescue efforts are underway after an American Airlines regional jet crashes with a Blackhawk in DC, I can’t help but think about the mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, wives, and friends of those passengers who are desperately waiting for some word of their loved ones. My heart breaks for them. 💔

One week apart.

This was posted yesterday morning before the DCA crash. Prescient.

We are going to have a backlash election in less than two years. Get your shit wired straight. It's our job to make this the biggest backlash election in history.

Free speech absolutists

We tried our best to warn them, but nobody listened to anything we said.

So the raids, threats, and actual deportations will happen. Share widely. #USDemocracy

We will keep on! I stand with my family, Friend and LGBTQIA+ everywhere. Well, not Caitlyn Jenner. Sorry not sorry.

“I voted for Trump because I wanted him to screw OTHER people! This HAS to be a mistake! My wife, whose rights I voted against, is DEVASTATED! Please Help!” **Sips wine in #92Percent 💅🏽 🍷

The inauguration was a carefully constructed fascist pageant meant to seize control of power and reality, foster an authoritarian environment on behalf of the oligarchs, and pummel us into early submission. It’s time to prepare for the fight. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/a-repulsiv...

This evening in the US Capitol, I was proud to stand with Representatives Eric Swalwell, Jason Crow, Chrissy Houlahan and DC police officer Danny Hodges and speak out against the pardons given to domestic terrorists. Attached is a portion of my remarks.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)
