An important statement from the American Bar Association. www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

MapQuest is NOT renaming the Gulf of Mexico. Our maps are like grandma's Thanksgiving recipes — once they're printed, they're not changing. The Gulf of Mexico stays put on MapQuest.

I updated this due to an astute follower pointing out that Alabama changed their laws to have off year local elections as well. That's a lot of races in 2025 in some 31 states! Local elections matter! Get involved! Send a message! This doesn't even include a bunch of special elections happening now!

To those criticizing Biden for pardoning Hunter, holding him to the highest standards while Trump is held to no standard at all, is why we’re in this mess.

President-elect Donald Trump ordered congressional Republicans on Wednesday to block a broadly popular bill to protect press freedoms, likely ending any chance of the U.S. Senate clearing the legislation.

He’ll forever be guilty.

Georgia's health department found 89% of maternal deaths were preventable. Republican's solution? They fired every member of committee that dared to publish report. They don't care if pregnant women die — Only that the statistics are kept secret. Maternal Mortality Comm. collects & reports data.

PLEASE REMEMBER: trump's win percentage is shaping up to be the third SMALLEST in history. He does NOT have a mandate, no matter what he says. That means we push back against every single batshit crazy policy he tries to pass. EVERYTHING. Mandate my ass.

If it was about babies…

Let’s prove that Americans love libraries! Repost and follow us to help build the nation’s largest network of library supporters. You can also send an email to your legislators to support libraries at action.everylibrary.org/emailreps

The collective voice of nurses, physicians, and frontline healthcare workers will be more important than ever moving forward. We won’t yield to pressure from partisan nonsense. We must keep speaking up like my colleagues did in this article! #nursesky #medsky

Anyone who is anti-vax is pro-death. Period. The science and data do not lie. And they don’t care about your podcast.

If you are in Oklahoma or know others that are with school age children, please pass this along to them. Defense of Democracy created opt-out forms for Ryan Walter’s forced bible instruction. Let’s keep getting in good trouble! #EduSky #Resist kfor.com/news/oklahom...

Sarah McBride: "I worried that the heart of this country wasn't big enough to support someone like me. And over the last decade, I have been able to bear witness to change that once seemed so impossible to me as a kid that it was almost incomprehensible ... I carry that with me."

Repost and follow us if you love libraries, reading, and books! Let’s work together to fight for libraries!

Tammy Duckworth: "It's frankly an insult and really troubling that Mr. Trump would nominate someone who has admitted he paid off a victim who has claimed rape allegations against him. This is not the kind of person you want to lead the Department of Defense."

IN 1956 NIKITA KHRUSCHEV SAID "We do not have to invade the USA we will destroy you from within"

Absolutely. We cannot field a modern all volunteer military without women. This isn’t a theory. It’s a fact of life. There simply aren’t enough healthy male Americans willing to serve. We must draw from all corners of our society and women have proven themselves to be capable warriors over and over.

I’ve thought that Trump’s chances of pulling off mass deportations hovered around 5 percent. If a former host of “Fox & Friends” is running the military I need to change that prediction to zero percent

Perhaps they should have believed him.

The arch of the moral universe is long and bends towards justice but the last time we dealt with fascists, by the time it “bent to justice” in 1945, 60 million people were dead and Europe was in ashes.

Republican Senators rallying around Pete Hegseth tells you they have no problem with sexual predators. Or unqualified candidates. They just really hated Matt Gaetz.

Pete is correct, as he usually is.

This man cannot be Secretary of Defense. apnews.com/article/hegs...

Just sayin’.

m.facebook.com/story.php?st... I wear the label proudly!

We shouldn't have to hope the ethics report gets released, then hope the Senate reads it, then hope they take it into account during the confirmation process. We shouldn't have to hope they will stop a sex trafficker from becoming the chief law enforcement officer of the nation. But here we are.

They “deadlocked” because the Republicans are such craven spineless worms they want to cover it up now.

I’ll take it

Lee: When Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was up for confirmation or when VP Harris was added to the ticket, they called them DEI hires. They want you to believe that Harvard graduate with over 20 years of experience is not qualified but Fox personality is qualified to run the DOD

How many of these do we have?

This incredible woman has more courage than any Republican member of Congress. Representative-Elect Sarah McBride responds to the pathetic transgender bathroom ban just announced by the coward Mike Johnson.
