This is the #America we live in. #MAGA is cheering every time raids like LA happen. Even though we are constitutionally protected to peacefully protest.

Rubber bullets can seriously hurt people.

Ahem.

President #Trump said on Saturday that face coverings would not be tolerated at #protests. [NY Times re: #LAprotests]. So, it's ok for #ICE but not citizens who don't want to breathe in smoke & tear gas? Since when are we not allowed to cover our faces? Are we now in a police state?

“After years in both the classroom and leadership roles, I’ve watched a familiar pattern unfold: we plan with intention, teach with care, and still, students forget. The problem isn’t motivation—it’s memory. And that’s where the science of learning offers us a lifeline.” 🧠 #EduSky

In 2023, Minnesota lawmakers passed legislation authorizing religious institutions to provide permanent housing to chronically homeless or extremely low-income people. To date, two Twin Cities area churches have built nine tiny homes in what are called sacred settlements.

Howard Lutnick, our Secretary of Commerce, shows a disconnect from material reality that will make Americans die. A weather forecast cannot be "automated" or MADE AT ALL without data. And the budget he is defending here cuts the satellites and weather stations that provide that data. 1/

The Florida Bar has filed misconduct charges against Attorney General Pam Bondi. She has been in violation of multiple ethics rules since being sworn in.

One of the greatest deceptions of our time is the false narrative that we should be more concerned about a poor person misusing the welfare system or an immigrant being here illegally than we are about the ultra wealthy abusing the system and cruel people having unchecked power over all of us.

As LBJ said 60 years ago, freedom is not just opening the gates of opportunity. True freedom is ensuring everyone has the ability to walk through them.

This is really frightening. This is why we must push past ideology and get back to STEM.

We all must be responsible for fact-checking everything. They count on gullible & lazy Americans.

It's sad that T posts everything on TS & X instead of having official press conferences. If it weren't for people here sharing screen shots, I wouldn't know half of what he says & does. So, TY to cross-platform people! Please keep us informed!

It's only been 4 months & I'm already feeling, "When will this assault on our democracy end? When can I go back to waking up w/o thinking about the #POTUS." Then reality hits & the real question is "how is this going to end?" It hurts.

What is wrong with this picture? Is T now #Putin's secretary instead of #POTUS?

Love this. Good people stepping up when the system fails our kids.

CSPAN could go public and become the media play of the century if it started covering Congress like this. ht: @repmoskowitz.bsky.social

Pretty much!

I NEED YA’LL TO SPREAD THIS!!!! SHOW UP! DRESS THE PART! We need massive numbers We need Congress to be shook by the turn out We need them to talk We need them to hear us We need them to know we’re serious Anyone enabling this fascism will answer to the people. Bet on it. #wearetheflood

Today's cuteness!

Join the FOX Takedown in front of FOX headquarters, 499 N Capitol St NW, D.C., and tell them that we will NOT accept their sane washing coverage of and normalizing this administration.

The Trumps have profited to the tune of something like $10 million per day since inauguration — making Hunter Biden look like a total piker. Corruption is now the rule, and government functionality the exception.

Speaking of abominations... Senator Warren's office assembled a list of ways in which Musk used his position for his own personal enrichment while in office, almost all unethical &/or unlawful. No sign of any of this ending w/his "departure." www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

What a telling exchange here. Scholar @kateshaw.bsky.social with the analytics and the scholarship just bursting a hole in these political theatrics. Watch the staffer's reaction.

😡😡😡😡

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

"Just one more thing, sir. Since the election, you've announced 12 projects in foreign countries: the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, India, Qatar, & Oman. You got a $400 million jet, sold meme coins, $600 sneakers, Chinese bibles, & hats. How is any of this making America great?"

For fuck sake.
