I'm so sorry, Julianne Moore & LeUyen Pham 💔 Thank you for FRECKLEFACE STRAWBERRY. For writing, for illustrating a book for the kids with freckles, for the adults with freckles. A story insisting it's okay to be different. Your differences make you YOU 💛 pen.org/julianne-moo...

It’s the same carnivalesque, destructive anti-government energy and ideology that drove the Tea Party, only this time its face isn’t Joe and Jane white tax payer, it’s a white nationalist gazillionaire. No need for even the pretense of astroturfing.

My wife Asako @agladsjo.bsky.social directed this terrific new doc about medical students in The Bronx. It airs March 17th on PBS. The trailer just went live today. In our timeline of shrinking opportunities for stories about people of color, this feels like medicine. www.pbs.org/video/traile...

On congestion pricing, the correct framing isn't that the Trump admin killed it, it's that the Trump admin announced that they're going to TRY to kill it. This is going to court, and there's no guarantee Trump is going to win there.

As a parent, if you aren't angered by the absolute idiocy and hubris of a former heroin junkie without ANY medical training thinking kids vaccines that have protected our most precious beings for decades need to be "retested", you should be now. RFK Jr is a danger to our children. Full stop.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

I know some people are being super cautious and not willing to blame Trump and Musk for the number of airline collisions we've witnessed over the past month. But, I am not as generous as you considering there's a full scale assault on our FAA under his watch. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

About the Equity part of DEI 1/ When I started my corporate career, it was an unwritten rule that discussing salaries was verboten. How raises were calculated and determined, top secret. About 5 years in, change of leadership, a commitment to being more transparent.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Looks like Trump Adm is hellbent on taking Judge AB Jackson's normally nonappealable TRO—blocking Trump's firing of Hampton Dellinger—to SCOTUS. DC Cir dismissed appeal last night, but Judge Katsas (Trump appointee) wrote 12-page dissent. ... 1/2

This is extraordinarily dangerous. Tomorrow, the legacy media will ask Republican officials about this. Those officials will lie and obfuscate. And the legacy media will move on. That is part of the crisis we face.

Corporate journalism is fundamentally broken. Support your fave independent outlet today. Support trans writers, Black creators, disabled advocates. Support people who are just coming up. Wanna fight fascism? Give $3/mo to three organizations—and tell everyone you know how AMAZING these orgs are.

Where is the Democratic Party? F'ing get up off your asses, stop posting memes about eggs, and put forth some bills that force the GOP's rotten grubbing hands. Talking to you, @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social. Americans are desperate for leadership against Musk and Trump.

There is always something you can do to gum up the works of fascism. A story. Claude Cahun. The queer nonbinary French-Jewish photographer. Nazis conquered France, were training soldiers on Jersey, where Cahun lived w/their partner, Marcel Moore. They did disinfo & morale smashing via Surrealism.

A thought for those congresspeople now swanning around Europe:who picked you up at the airport? Who drove you around? Who organized your schedule? Who took your wives shopping? Who got your booze? Those same overworked State Department people at the embassy your boys are gonna RIF. Enjoy your trip.
