Take just a second and tell Congress to pass the "Stop the Steal" bill to prevent anyone from meddling with our payment systems and data:

Right now is the perfect time to send letters to your Members of Congress to say no cuts ever to Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid! actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Russian companies are using bitcoin to evade Western sanctions, thanks to a new law, the country's Finance Minister Anton Siluanov confirmed in a television interview. www.axios.com/2024/12/25/r...

I’m with Denmark.

A "pig butchering" scam might open with a simple “Hi” or some good-natured confusion about why your phone number seems to be in the person’s address book. It's the first step in a process intended to drain your bank account and ruin your life. (Published Sept. 2022)

Pete Hegseth's nomination is a slap in the face to every American who values equality and justice. His extreme views are out of step with America and have no place in our government. Tell your Senators to reject him as Secretary of Defense. 📱 (202) 224-3121

Thank you Rep. Katie Porter for everything you have done to protect Medicare and for your incredible advocacy for mental health legislation in Congress. I can’t wait to see what you do next! 🙏💜

If you’re upset about President Biden pardoning his son Hunter, wait until I tell you about the time Trump pardoned his son in law’s hooker hiring daddy and made him ambassador to France.

This is a great, straightforward article that defines the problem and the work we must do (starting now). Well worth the read. Drop some of your fave quotes in the comments. Let’s discuss… www.politico.com/news/magazin...

BREAKING NEWS: Trump’s new AG pick, Pam Bondi, received $115,000 USD a MONTH lobbying for Qatar! How many of his cabinet members are foreign agents?

We keep saying this was going to happen. I feel like I’m going insane

Would you look at that. Soooo—is the precedent set? #Obamacare #Self-Owned

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

Crossing the border illegally is a misdemeanor. Donald Trump committed 34 felonies. Let THAT sink in.

John Cleese for the win

NEWS: The FDA reported that 83 tons of ground beef are being recalled nationwide for E. Coli contamination that left people sick. A stark reminder that the Trump administration intends to reduce or eliminate this necessary oversight.

Literally..

If you want Joe Biden to do something, posting on BlueSky alone won’t do it. Do what I do and use the White House contact form here. www.whitehouse.gov/contact/

Word of the day. Or week. Or next four years.

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.

Putting an anti-vaxxer in charge of public health is like putting the Unabomber in charge of the mail.

YOU can help block Matt Gaetz from becoming Attorney General. Please share and add your name! Pass it on.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his anti-vax fakery was tied to a deadly measles outbreak in Samoa. And he lied about it. As head of HHS, he could do much worse here. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Matt Gaetz was recently investigated by the Department of Justice for the sex trafficking of a minor. Now Trump has nominated him to lead the agency, transforming it into a weapon of vengeance against his opponents. However bad you think this is—it's worse. slate.com/news-and-pol...

So Trump picked a Soros protégé, Dick Cheney's adviser, other forever war neocons, a dog killer, multiple people who want to see Israel completely annex Gaza and the West Bank, a Fox host, and we're just getting started... Is this what Trump voters thought they were getting?

America.

Grim stuff. "Approximately 50% of Americans read so poorly that they are unable to perform simple tasks such as reading prescription drug labels" www.thenationalliteracyinstitute.com/post/literac...

You should probably get used to hearing this word a lot over the next few years.

Putin saying the quiet part out loud.
