Remember Fiona Hill? She’s now sounding the alarm again: “We’re definitely on a path toward full-on state repression. There’s no question about it. I’ve thought about this for an extraordinarily long time.” When Fiona speaks, we should all listen.

I’ve taught 20 yrs of students Constitutional rights like due process & equal protection. Now, I’d be lying to them to say these laws, literally written into our Constitution, are followed. These basic rights prohibit shipping people off with no due process. All Americans should be outraged.

But our Transportation Secretary was doing Newsmax interviews yesterday about Trump’s policy on shower heads and dishwashers.

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history. They aren't even bothering to hide it.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Excited to find a light theme with large font in settings here on 💙 BlueSky!

DOGE Oversight Subcommittee held a hearing on reducing federal property. All they said was “fire sale” this, “fire sale” that. Meanwhile, they’re lighting all of this s**t on fire — while their incompetent leader wastes millions of taxpayer dollars golfing, all while steering us towards a recession.

It looks like they are really doing this. Wow this is nuts.

FACEBOOK CENSORSHIP #MAKEMETATESLA

There is absolutely no way the US can host the World Cup or the Olympics

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Even if you aren't an author, or an artist of any sort, please consider signing this open letter to Congress. Let them know that you care about this, and that setting limits on AI use and training must be made mandatory. It's crucial for so many reasons! Protectdigitalidentity.org

Sorry, wrong graphic!

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

A legal resident of New Hampshire was “violently interrogated” for hours, stripped naked, and forced into a cold shower. Given little food or water and prevented from taking medication, he collapsed and was hospitalized.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

@hcrichardson.bsky.social “Let’s get in good trouble. “My friend, madam president, I yield the floor.” According to Washington Post technology reporter Drew Harwell, before he was through, Booker’s speech had been liked on TikTok 400 million times.

"If America hasn’t broken your heart, you don’t love Her enough.” Cory Booker

THIS COURAGE BEGETS COURAGE.

Senator Booker just finished hour 4 now, talking about people who would be harmed by Medicaid cuts to fund tax cuts to billionaires. “If they are successful, what kind of country will we be?”

WTF

Raskin: "Look at how sick that is. Basically anybody who has rendered any ruling they disapprove of they think should be removed from the bench. Any lawyer who has ever represented a party adverse to them they think should be cleared out of the way. That is in naked opposition to the rule of law."

This means I now have negative 4 security clearances

Wikler: Musk deleted that tweet because he knows that that tweet was a crime, and it's still a crime in Wisconsin law. It is plain as day. You cannot promise something of value in order to induce someone to vote or refrain from voting. This is Wisconsin statute, and it's a felony to cross that line.

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

We need a “March of the Elders” in every city and county on one day. More like a rally. But a show that elders are still citizens, still have voices, still make demands and still care about the future of this country.

What a blithering bunch of idiots!

This is why we have to keep raising hell.

Secretary Lutnick: You are a billionaire. Maybe your mother-in-law wouldn't complain if she didn't get her Social Security check, but tens of millions of seniors struggling to survive would. They're not fraudsters. They earned it. How out of touch are you not to realize that?

34,000 people showed up in Denver yesterday to hear Bernie and @aoc.bsky.social. What did they say about it on last night’s news? 🦗🦗🦗
