I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

JFK on why he founded USAID. “The economic collapse of those free but less-developed nations which now stand poised between sustained growth and economic chaos would be disastrous to our national security, harmful to our comparative prosperity and offensive to our conscience”.

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

I have many regrets about Earth, but making humans in a wide range of colors, shapes, and temperaments is not one of them. Celebrate thy diversity. Love each other.

USAID is a criminal organization,” Mr. Musk wrote on Sunday in a social media post that many aid workers saw as confirmation the agency would soon be absorbed into the State Department and that some viewed as a potential threat to their personal safety. “Time for it to die.” THIS HAS TO STOP.

What if there were a coup, the US government fell to a drug-addled oligarch who seized control of our money, secrets, and levers of power, and Corporate media did not report on it?

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

Gwen and I are sending love to those mourning the loss of their loved ones in the tragic accident at DCA last night. I’m grateful to the first responders who rushed to the scene under dangerous conditions. Hold your loved ones a little closer today.

This is exactly what we want to see from Senate Democrats. Russell Vought is the mastermind of Trump’s sweeping (and illegal) spending freeze, and his nomination should be withdrawn. Democrats are starting to fight back, and we need to encourage them to keep going: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Notice every Republican official addressing the media today (re: the DC airplane collision) go out of their way to make a positive mention of Trump. They know he's watching. Even in the face of terrible tragedy, they're all dancing for his favor. It's a North Korean level of sycophancy.

Trump is an extremely dangerous man--stupid, vindictive, fixated on payback for his enemies. This country will be lucky to survive him.

In other words Trump has no answer or idea on how to handle the plane crash tragedy in DC. These are the rants of a desperate one trick phony who’s got nothing but to gin up hate and racism - putting even more American lives in danger ↘️

Using the tragic plane collision over the Potomac that cost 67 human souls as an occasion to slam DEI hiring was obscene. There’s zero evidence at this point that an underqualified air traffic controller or pilot had any role in this crash.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence. He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials. It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

RFK Jr. stumbled his way through his HHS confirmation hearing, botched basic facts on Medicare and Medicaid, and bent over backwards to appease conservatives on abortion. Worse than incompetent—he’s a threat to public health.

Elon Musk holds personal responsibility for every airline disaster. From the moment he used his foreign Tech Bro cult to force a resignation from the head of the FAA to the minute another capable leader is unanimously approved by the Senate — just like the last one.

For the last four years, Jennifer Abruzzo vigorously defended workers' rights and cracked down on union-busters as General Counsel at the National Labor Relations Board. She was one of the strongest pro-worker voices in the federal government. Trump just fired her.

RFK jr. is really angry about chronic diseases in the U.S. and committed to finding an answer, so long as that answer has absolutely nothing to do with ending our for-profit healthcare system and adopting the universal healthcare system that every other developed nation has.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

A message to the US Senate: America is watching. Patel, Gabbard, and RFK are more than just unfit. They are a danger to our country, and to our people's safety. Use your vote to protect the people you represent. History will remember your choice.
