Absolute bullshit. The bill specifically targets parents like me. We can't work because our kids need 24-hour care, so we can't afford private caregiving help...unlike certain extremely wealthy members of Congress. www.huffpost.com/entry/mike-j...

Tomorrow is June 1st - the start of PRIDE Month. More than ever we need to speak up for those whose rights are being eroded by right wing groups and politicians in the US and right here in Canada. Let’s show that BlueSky is not just a safe space, but an actively welcoming and supportive space! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I’m on a fixed income, so unplanned events really mess with finances. I was very sick a short time ago and bought things to get me through. That’s left me in need of basics like food and could use some help if anyone is able. Not much. Just whatever could be spared. Please dm if you’re able.

On this day I offer you a cute boy covered in kittens. Photo from my collection, no documented date/info.

Spent lot of time getting to know Palantir as I put together my reporting on their expanding federal contracts. One thing I kept hearing was worry Palantir would be wedded to the Trump administration’s political agenda. If you work there, and want to talk about this more my signal is in my bio.

People are pissed this morning because we exposed Peter Thiel. We’re under constant attack, but that’s expected. The greatest threat to the Trump administration is an informed public. That’s why they rely on secrecy and distraction. But we won’t look away.

On This Day In #CanadianHistory 🇨🇦 May 31, 1985 Tornadoes Tear Across Central Ontario Twelve people died, hundreds were injured and over 1,000 buildings were damaged or destroyed. Damage topped $150 million. #Tornado #Ontario #Canada

#OtD 30 May 1969 a workers' uprising began in Curaçao, a colony of the Dutch empire, which eventually brought down the govt. A mass strike and widespread rioting broke out against low pay and discrimination against the black population stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1032...

An epidemiologist at Columbia had to issue a statement saying the research article RFK Jr. cited with her name is FAKE. It’s not real. The paper itself doesn’t EXIST. Yall this is fascism. FAKE scientific articles used by the government to influence policy is FASCISM. This is horrifying.

New — Video shared with me that was taken yesterday at Manhattan Immigration Court (290 Broadway) shows ICE officers in the midst of an arrest putting on face masks once they realize they’re being filmed my witnesses.

In some tribal communities, Indigenous women face murder rates that are more than 10 times higher than the national average, underscoring the severity of the crisis in certain areas. #MissingandMurderedIndigenousWomen #MMIW #embroidery

I truly do not care if food stamps cover junk food. It doesn't affect me. But do you know who it does affect The kid who wouldn't get a birthday cake otherwise. The one who only knows what it's like to say "no" in the snack aisle The one who just wants to feel like every other child for one day.1/2

What we are seeing with immigration is simply how criminalization works. Lurid, sensationalized, often fictitious stories of a small group of alleged ‘hard criminals’ justifies horrific actions against a wide swath of people.

Last year, we became the first state to build and open three veterans homes simultaneously.   I just signed a bill that fully funds the staffing and operations of these homes well into the future. I’m proud of Minnesota’s enduring commitment to better serve those who served us.

GO. MOW. YOUR. MOM. Please report my murder!

As communities in Argentina begin cleaning up their homes from recent flooding, WCK is delivering meals directly to impacted families so they can focus solely on recovery. Parents are prioritizing children’s toys early in the cleanup to help kids find comfort while they rebuild. #ChefsForArgentina

Which is exactly why I love reminding these broke motherfuckers that they’re poor as shit, especially compared to me. Nothing a racist loves more than thinking they’re better than the BEST of us

Delighted to see our #NION letter gaining traction at 13.5k signatures. 25k by Monday? I want to address a question/criticism I've seen about our wording. To women upset that we describe ourselves as cis women and refusing to sign on that basis I ask you to reconsider. Please read on...

This is happening all around the country, not just in Arizona. But the Health Department isn't telling us anymore. RFK halted the bird flu vaccine work. So let's see how this works out 😑

Please read, this is important. Sorry it’s long. Trump’s move to have Elon Musk step aside wasn’t a retreat. It was a distraction. With Musk’s name out of the headlines, many assumed the controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had quietly ended. It hasn’t. It’s just changed hands.

White folks didn't read Project 2025, didn't heed any of the warnings, now we are here, and it's only going to get worse. Ignorance is NOT a valid excuse. They did vote for all of this, he did say he was going to do all of this. They get no pass, they get no sympathy.

The pitchbot just jumped off a bridge.

Great point! And an indicator of how screwed up our priorities are.

You’ve been warned. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 🌮

Unbelievable! Today, San Diego witnessed a government-sanctioned kidnapping. ICE stormed Buona Forchetta in military gear ripping workers away, then unleashing tear gas and smoke on the terrified community. Full on police state, fascism now used on American citizens. Stay aware. #OnYourSide

This will happen in every city, every town, every corner if ICE is continued to have full jurisdiction without any limits on their use of force
