We're calling for a review of investments in Tesla, a company in apparent severe decline and at grave risk of further devaluation. This is about safeguarding teachers’ and nurses’ pension portfolios and retirement savings. www.aft.org/press-releas...

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

Every worker deserves a safe a secure retirement. Just this week we saw Tesla stock continue to sink faster than a Cybertruck in quicksand. So we're asking asset managers to honestly look at their investments in Tesla. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/27/b...

White House restores HBCU scholarships after pressure from Ossoff, lawmakers ajc.com/education/wh...

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world. It's obvious to all of us.

Every time I think thing can’t get worse, the appointees can’t get worse, Trump says ‘hold my beer.’ I am stunned, even by Trump standards, that Dan Bongino, a man even Fox got rid of, is now the new deputy director of the FBI. We are so effed.

are anyone else’s kids disturbed by the idea of the tooth fairy? my six year old lost a tooth and requested we place it on the counter downstairs because he doesn’t want the tooth fairy to enter his room, and my three year old outright told us to keep the tooth fairy away from her

They fired a top Black general and are replacing him with a much less-qualified white general. They’re not hiding the racism.

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

BREAKING NEWS: Senator John Fetterman STUNS Republicans and announces not only will he vote NO on Tulsi Gabbard but also on RFK JR. Thank you Senator Fetterman.

Don’t mess with @ellenlweintraub.bsky.social

This is insane. Musk, the world's richest man, owner of the most influential political messaging platform, and a de facto government member and top ally to the president, is accusing a journalist of being a criminal, because she reported on one of his racist DOGE staffers. This is fascist behavior.

I feel this so deeply

I will not give into the lies. I will not give into the fear. Repeat it.

You can always tell when White House press spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt is lying by how the cross around her neck starts growing.

Heads up! The @aclu.org Immigrant Rights Project has an EXCELLENT online resource available in multiple languages to walk immigrants or advocates through various scenarios of encounters with immigration officials or police. It includes contact #s for local ACLU offices. www.aclu.org/know-your-ri...

I fucking hate Trump’s America.

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

If only the United States could learn some lessons from South Korea:

Watching the Hegseth hearing and it seems pretty clear that the GOP is together and he will be confirmed. We are entering an era the likes of which this country has never seen.

There’s not a day that goes by that we don’t think about Congresswoman Jackson Lee. Forever the greatest to ever do it, and the best mentor anyone could ever ask for. Happy Heavenly Birthday! 🎂

So important to acknowledge the devastating to this community.

MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on how Donald Trump went quiet real quick as Governor Newsom called him out in public and told him to come to California and “say it to my face” if you are spreading lies about the fires. youtu.be/TEiMb7l9Lno?...

Yep.

Jack Smith has resigned. AG Garland now needs to grow a pair of balls and release the entire Smith report. Yes, there are remaining defendants in the docs case, but Trump will pardon them.

I genuinely don't think I can handle the next four years of New York Times headlines. Kill me now.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record. They run them bc people react to them the most. If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change. It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

This is my pro-democracy starter pack. Consider spreading it around and following some of these great accounts! go.bsky.app/6ZPSJH3

We are Hold The Line, an organization to defend our nation from the Trump Administration and his extremist agenda. We can’t do it alone–can you repost this and give us a follow to spread the word?
