We were robbed.

Exactly.

Gotta love the British press.

I am beyond words about the commutation of Leonard Peltier.

I cannot believe he commuted the sentence of Leonard Peltier. I never even let myself believe it would actually ever happen.

🚨BREAKING🚨 Leonard Peltier Granted Executive Clemency After 50 years of unjust incarceration and the tireless efforts of intergenerational grassroots organizing and advocacy, our elder and relative Leonard Peltier has been granted executive clemency.

With literally minutes left in his presidency, Joe Biden has granted clemency to Leonard Peltier

CNN is worried they're losing viewers. With takes like this one, I'm surprised they have any viewers at all.

The Holidays and Hoops. Nothing better…

Congratulations to Mike Johnson for trying to pressure the House Ethics Committee into burying a report that found the then-nominee for attorney general had engaged in sexual activity with a minor. Party of Family Values, am I right?

Five years ago today the Lincoln Project formed to fight Donald Trump and MAGA. We are grateful to those who have joined the fight. The work continues and so do we. Happy Anniversary Lincoln Project!

BREAKING: In an unprecedented move, more than 75 Nobel Prize winners have signed a letter urging senators not to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as head of the Department of Health and Human Services. It's the first time in history that Nobel laureates have come together to oppose a Cabinet choice.

America would be a much better place if SOME people would stop freaking out over WHO we love, WHICH bathroom we use, and WHAT we do with our bodies. It is nobody's fucking business but OURS.

Leak the report. Pass it on.

Bluesky now has over 20M people!! 🎉 We've been adding over a million users per day for the last few days. To celebrate, here are 20 fun facts about Bluesky:

Never submit.

Sex offenders in our White House appointing sex offenders as Attorney General should NEVER be normalized. Never stop calling this out.

President Biden tried to raise the overtime threshold, which is the point where salaried workers are entitled to earn overtime pay. It would have helped millions. A Trump appointed judge in Texas just blocked it. Please tell me you see which party is actually fighting for the average worker.

What disappoints me most about his supporters is that their entire platform is about HURTING others. Taking away rights. Taking away benefits. Taking away a path to citizenship. It’s a platform based on cruelty. They hate their lives and prefer if everyone suffered rather than solving it. Sad.

You don’t bury an ethics report that would exonerate Trump’s pick. You don’t skip FBI background checks unless his nominees have something to hide. See what they’re doing? Please tell me you see what they’re doing.

The same people who’ve spent the last several years decrying “unqualified DEI hires” are now shoehorning through Cabinet nominations who can’t even pass a basic background test.

Just thinking about how the expanded child tax credit would have lifted half our nation’s kids out of poverty.

Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before y’all start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.

This app is actually so much better for my mental lol.

Goodreads is owned by Amazon & there is an AMAZING alternative‼️ The StoryGraph is a black women-owned competitor to GoodReads with better UI in my opinion. When you sign up you can even transfer your data from Goodreads to StoryGraph!
