Members of the military are supposed to be loyal to the Constitution, not the president. Changing that seems to have been the point of the Friday Night Massacre. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

I am very politically active and write/call my congressman often. I have lived in his district for almost 2 decades. I have never seen him in person and it’s not for a lack of trying. No town halls. No visiting his district. I’ve never seen hide nor hair of Sam Graves.

The Pentagon is now pausing their mass firing of civilian employees in order to evaluate potential impacts on military readiness. I’m just spitballing here, but maybe a readiness assessment should have been the first step. 🤦‍♂️

I think the energy that can be harnessed right now if someone in a leadership position wants to step up and be a leader is extraordinary.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Heard a song from the 80s reference a "long distance call" and it occurred to me that this is a concept that no longer holds any emotional currency whatsoever

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center say results of a Phase I trial of an mRNA vaccine aimed at preventing pancreatic cancer show promise. The vaccine PREVENTED the cancer from coming back in patients who had already received treatment for MORE THAN three years. 🧪🧵⬇️

Bad messaging: We need to educate our constituents so they know we don't have any power. Good messaging: We will do everything possible to protect our constituents and democracy, we hear their concerns, and we're going to tell them daily how they can help us oppose autocracy.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Do the people in the USA ever question the fact that they are the richest country in the world, but crime, healthcare, education, life expectancy are all like a 3rd world country. Do they not realize they are being robbed?

Let me tell you one way telemedicine saves lives. A personal tale. Every time, sans one, when I've had to call for an ambulance I've called e-medicine though my insurance first. Because I don't want to go, and hope they can solve it. If I instead had waited for a doctor's appt I'd be dead.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

One of the most terrifying, brilliantly written, balanced and relevant books I have ever read. I’ve always thought Rees was an exceptional historian, this reaffirms that view.

These self-identified Jesus-followers are celebrating the separation of parents from their children and spouses from one another; cheering families torn apart, lives violently uprooted, and human beings being terrorized at school and at work and at church. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-youre-a...

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

Mordechai Brafman shot at two Jewish people 17 times & hit them b/c he thought they were Palestinian. He faces 15 years & no hate crime charges. Briana Boston said "delay deny defend" to Blue Cross. She faces 15 years on terror charges. This is Florida. www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-horrif...

I'n glad Mitch McConnell lived long enough to taste the rotten fruits of his harvest. He was responsible for creating the extremist MAGA movement that has fully turned on him. One of the great villains of the past 30 years.

People are waking up to just how bad things are with co-presidents Trump & Musk and Republicans running Congress. We don’t have to wait for midterms—we can win special elections now. We’ve been here before and won. @repjasmine.bsky.social lays out the path 🔥

For the last two days, Sean Duffy has been blaming Pete Buttigieg, Joe Biden, the Democrats, and anyone else he can think of for the fact that under HIS watch, planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. Maybe fewer joyrides to the Daytona 500 and a little more attention paid to transportation.
