terrible news for Iowa: www.cnn.com/2025/02/27/u...

today is buy nothing day! Boycott big retailers.

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

Voted for Trump, now have buyer’s remorse? The Trump philosophy seems to be his version of FAFO. Don’t buy anything on the 28th unless you absolutely have to. #Resist

Boycotts are taking hold. Protests are on the rise. Federal courts are hitting back. The Trump-Musk-Vance regime's popularity is plunging and DOGE is losing credibility. In these dark times, it's important to recognize that people are fighting back. Join them.

Here are the states proposing anti-book ban bills in 2025 so far. These are where you need to direct phone calls and letters–and there are a lot of unexpected states included. That, plus this week's extensive book censorship news: bookriot.com/anti-book-ba...

If you are experiencing rage and despair about what is happening in America and the world right now because of the Trump-Vance-Musk regime, you are hardly alone. But a groundswell of opposition is growing. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/ten-reasons-for-optimism

The rate at which planes are crashing while Trump is President is getting scary, and meanwhile he's played golf in Florida every one of the last 3 days. What is happening here?

Bird Flu is spreading across the nation and putting the country in danger. The Trump administration response is to fire USDA microbiologists fighting the disease. We are using every tool available to us to stop them.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet. They are vital members of our community. They make our government actually work for people. Remember this.

How long would we expect the mass deportations to take to notably make things awesome to the average American?

Trump is an extremely dangerous man--stupid, vindictive, fixated on payback for his enemies. This country will be lucky to survive him.

Senators at RFK Jr.'s confirmation made sure he didn't forget his nonsense health stances

The Hegseth confirmation shows that Republican lawmakers have put party over country. They should be ashamed, but I doubt if they are.

Trump II has begun. Many people are asking: “What can I do now?” Here are 10 recommendations. Please let me know your thoughts, and if you have anything else you'd like to add to the list.

If it weren’t for Black men, the U.S. Capitol would have never been completed—yet, those who stormed it on January 6th have been pardoned. DEI education is being stripped from schools. The irony is loud, and the message is clear. #BlackHistoryMatters #NeverForget www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMRq...

Trump has already arguably done enough stuff to be worthy of impeachment in the first 5 days of his second term. It's not worth trying, it won't succeed, but it's still crazy.

The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education. Never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was legal. Martin Luther the King Jr. #MartinLutherKingJr #CriticalThinking #BlackHistory

The gospel according to Saint Mariann

Looks like the storm of the century has shut down Charleston all week. Up north, this would be a joke. But down here they have no equipment or infrastructure to clear the snow and ice. And based on the politicians here, probably won't have any any time soon...

A Christmas classic 🎁🎶🎄🔴🤢 (Full video on YouTube)

I may have misheard--is it true that every committee in the House and Senate in 2025 will be headed by men? Isn't this macho shit getting a little ridiculous?

“The fact is this: a tiny minority of people throughout the U.S. are behind censorship and book bans. But they are very loud—and blast lies all over social media.”

Rumors flying that Trump might replace Handsy Hegseth with DESANCTIMONOUS

Your Black Friday reminder that in 75% of U.S. industries, a smaller number of companies now control more of the business than they did twenty years ago. We must stop the monopolization of America. Shop small if you can, please.
