Absolutely! And better now than later

1304 days until the next presidential election! 622 days until the midterms! Stay strong and make your voice heard!

Oooop's.

A Lancet preprint estimates that if US funding is cut and not replaced, from 2025-2040 there will be 15.2 mil add'l AIDS deaths, 2.2 mil add'l TB deaths, 7.9 mil add'l child deaths from other causes, and 40-55 mil add'l unplanned pregnancies. @altusaid.altgov.info papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

More than 21 million American citizens don’t have a passport or a birth certificate readily available, according to survey data from the Brennan Center.

I mean … Obviously and Please #WTFAmerica #HandsOff

If you live in New York, Mayoral Candidate Zohran Mandan is interviewed by Jack Cocchiarella. (Interview is after the segment about Vance.)

⚠️ Warning: Flashing lights or patterns 🚨 On May 1, 2025, in cities across the U.S., we will honor the legacy of the workers who gave everything for the eight-hour day—and we will carry their struggle into today’s fight for a country that serves the many, not the few. JOIN US at www.FiftyFifty.one

Workers are not asking to get rich. They just want to afford three meals a day. In the richest country in the history of the world, no one should work for starvation wages. It is time to raise the disgraceful $7.25/hr federal minimum wage to a living wage of AT LEAST $17/hr.

Lies and deception. That’s what it takes to get people to go along with dictators. Do not be fooled.

In a time of militant Christian nationalism it can be hard for good people of faith to feel justified discussing their beliefs. But we need those voices more than ever. Do not let the most hateful versions of faith flourish. #belovedcommunity #goodfriday

We must protect Medicaid!

Important information!!

File this under “Who gives a shit!” Love it!

Now is the time!!

We need to stop referring to the place in El Salvador as a prison. There are no rules, no parole, no access to the outdoors, no visitors, no lawyers, no family allowed and no one ever leaves that enters. It is not a “mega prison” it’s a concentration camp and torture facility! The language matters!

We need EVERY person out there! April 19th!!

Speak up! We cannot afford to stay silent!

We had the reporter on tonight; @maddow has the whistleblower

As mother of a 27 yo son: "An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said,"Take him anyway." Sent to a concentration camp in EI Salvador. Just 19 yo. Life in prison. How can anyone, who proclaims to be a US citizen, live with this outrage?

The cruelty and lawlessness among the rank and file of ICE and CBP is dispiriting. These guys go way out of their way to fuck over people. It’s like ICE just took every cop fired for excessive force, every prison guard canned for brutality, every soldier discharged for war crimes.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

No one IS above the law- not even a president!

What they don’t want us to pay attention to on this Tax Day: Tesla paid $0 in taxes in 2024, yet Trump and congressional Republicans are working to pass even more tax handouts for billionaires and big corporations, while the rest of us get stuck with the bill.

Did you see @maddow.msnbc.com's coverage of this incredible good trouble by the @troublemakers.bsky.social and Seattle's #teslatakedown movement? Take a minute to watch, it'll brighten your Tuesday.

The court system is a coequal branch of government. If the administration isn’t going to follow their orders it’s time to hold some senior officials in contempt.

If you love your library, listen up…

This was the photo of the record breaking crowd at the Kennedy Center, for Trump function. Lol

This is exactly what I envision happening!

Celebrate the small wins!

These representatives must be censured and removed. They voted to disenfranchise married women voters, which will make the midterms moot. WTF?

@roadtaken.bsky.social Thank you for your follow 🥰💙✌🏼

Have you heard? There’s a new bill that makes it harder for millions of eligible Americans to vote. Join me and @standupamerica.bsky.social in urging Congress to vote NO on the SAVE Act: act.standupamerica.com/letters/no-o...

While it’s nice to live inside Chris Rufo's head, #TeslaTakedown is powered by pissed off Americans, who are fighting back. Rufo is a billionaire-funded right wing extremist. #TeslaTakedown has the billionaires bricking it. You know what to do: Show up at a Tesla showroom near you tomorrow.

Effective immediately, the government says it will begin screening immigrant social media for activity that officials think indicates support for antisemitism.
