11 MILLION PEOPLE!! 💥💥💥 Are we nearing the magic 3.5%?? Never forget….WE hold the power. #nokings

Truth 😆

"Putting out a fire you purposely start – doesn't make you a firefighter – it makes you an arsonist with a hose." Jimmy Kimmel

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

UPDATE: A federal court permits the RNC to join a lawsuit involving Trump’s anti-voting executive order. Republicans are seeking to defend the order from legal challenges filed by voting rights groups and the DNC. Background:

Trump: "The windmills are killing are country."

As the pressure grows on congressional Republicans to identify cuts in Medicaid, they are crashing into a familiar problem: The changes that could save the most money would impose heavy costs on many of their own voters.

By slashing teams that gather critical data, the Trump administration has left the federal government with no way of understanding if policies are working — and created a black hole of information whose consequences could ripple out for decades.

This is a sad state of affairs.

In 1870, the #15thAmendment was ratified, prohibiting a person being denied the right to vote due to race. Yet, the fight for equality and fair access to the ballot continues tday. During #BlackHistoryMonth, and every day, I remain committed to advancing justice and protecting voting rights for all.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH❤️🖤💚 Tuskegee Airmen in front of their P-40. African American military pilots and airmen who fought in World War II.

Sisterhood is at the heart of the DWC. We’ll keep fighting for women and families in the 119th Congress and onwards. They can’t steal our joy.

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices. We hammered this time and time again and yet.

Hard to imagine a stronger Masterpiece Cakeshop claim.

Let's not get hot takes from the right wing media in reacting to the LA wildfires. There are valid budget priority critiques, but BFFR, Mayor Karen Bass and DEI are not to blame for the difficulties containing the wildfires. #reeciecolbertshow #reeciewiththereceipts youtube.com/shorts/cfEW1...

“I'm going to be honest with you, I don't quite know what to make of this. At one level it is an obvious troll,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on Trump’s Greenland and Panama Canal ambitions. “But I also think there is something serious here."

Why are Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk, Pichai and Tim Cook visiting and giving money to Trump ? Because they are in “The Race “ to become the dominant platform in the world. Amazon/Anthropic vs FB/LLama vs Google/Gemini vs Twitter/Grok, vs IPhones/ChatGpt is the penultimate global power war ever.

This!!!

So Bluesky is basically the last line of defense now, huh?

Merrick Garland is not just the worst Attorney General in US history. His unwillingness to hold Trump accountable is criminal. And he one day should have to answer to that as well. But for now, MAGA will likely take care of it.
