He/Him/Us - 73 year-old retired married white fervent democrat who likes the Gospels much better than "Christianity." Lefty. Harris/Walz were robbed. Thankful for Joe & Jill. Committed to Equal Rights for All & our collective escape from MAGAgeddon.

TIMOTHY SNYDER, "ON TYRANNY" - LESSON 2 Defend & protect the first amendment: Freedom of speech, freedom of the press. Freedom of press protects the right to spread thoughts, ideas, news and views by publishing them. Press freedom means the government can't prevent information from being published.

Peltier's imprisonment has symbolized systemic injustice for Native Americans across the country who believe in his innocence.

I’m so disgusted, ashamed and disturbed.. watch this. You cannot ignore what this country has turned into (yes, past tense).

And it's coming at you, and only the MAGA CULT sheep will follow.

đź’ĄATTENTION FEDSđź’Ą All the termination letters going out that we've seen use "inadequate performance" as the reason for termination. SAVE YOUR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS. Tell your friends who aren't on bluesky! Probationary employees can't be fired for "poor performance" if their performance is not poor

Spotted at Baltimore, Maryland, protest đź’™

ATTENTION FEDS Judge Chutkin won't block Musk's federal worker firings because "'possibility' that defendants may take actions that irreparably harm plaintiffs is not enough" Attorneys are asking us for evidence of harm. If you have evidence contact the tipline asap. We'll provide an email address

“…and then they came for me, and there was nobody left to speak for me.”

Tomorrow (Wednesday), I’ll be on The View! Tune it at 11am EST to see what we are discussing!

Looking for a way to take action during this concerning time? I’m suggesting people use or subscribe to “5 calls”, It’s the easiest way to choose a subject of concern and call your reps and senators in DC. 5 stars even provides a script. 5calls.org

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

Good luck to you both!!

This is your reminder to download your kindle books onto a device where you can keep hold of them if Amazon decides to remove them. They'll be removing that option on the 26th of this month. 5 days. So back up your library!

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

Everyone needs to see this. Be ready to deny access, even if you don't know any immigrants. Let them waste time and you might save a family somewhere else. #Disobey #blue #fotus #FBR #immigrants #TruthWarriors #theresistance #resist #FBPE #FuckICE #SaveOurDemocracy #sanctuary #organize #fucktrump

Perfectly normal behavior 🙄

NEW: It was supposed to be a triumphant return to Capitol Hill for Jan. 6ers vowing to sue the Justice Department. It ended with Enrique Tarrio's arrest for suspected simple assault. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

On this week's Coffee Klatch, we discuss Trump's latest power grabs, the backlash to DOGE's mass firings, and how Democrats should give voice to the public's anger. Plus, former CFPB Director Rohit Chopra joins us to discuss DOGE's attack on the Bureau.

Firing 7000 IRS agents will make it even easier for the rich to get away with skirting what they owe. But it's also a gift to the multi-billion dollar tax prep industry. Fewer IRS agents to help you file your taxes means more money in the pockets of companies like TurboTax.

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

Not content with purchasing the presidency, Elon Musk now wants to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court as well. His PAC just pumped $1M into supporting anti-choice right-wing extremist Brad Schimel. Wisconsin — don't become Musk's latest acquisition! Vote @crawfordforwi.bsky.social.

Trump's attacks on the USPS aren't new. For decades, the GOP has been trying to privatize the Post Office and other crucial public services — all to pad the profits of their wealthy corporate donors.

Donald would flip his wig if he saw it.

I am going to post this every day Lest we forget

On BBC question time tonight they are asking about why should be Ukraine be involved. The big question should be “ Why the fuck is Trump involved “ ? He only wants to know what is in it for him.

For variety, sometimes I call them Treaslas.
