And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

It feels like people are waking up

He nails it.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

BREAKING: Canada defeats the USA to take home the #4Nations  Championship 🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canadian PM Justin Trudeau tweeted: “You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.”

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Musk’s staffers are accessing the heavily guarded Internal Revenue Service (IRS) system, which contains detailed financial information on every taxpayer, business, and nonprofit in the country.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes…

I think I’ve caught up on follow backs and I thank all of you for the follows. It’s so gratifying to see so MANY true patriots coming together to save our democracy. I’m terrified for our country but you all give me hope. The days of taking the high road are over and I’m proud to fight with you.

Stealing the Oval Office spotlight while your 4 year old tells the President to shut up is nasty work 🤣🤣🤣

Well, he *is* a dick

This is your daily reminder that it's a coup.

Trudeau: "There's not a snowball's chance in hell that Canada will ever be the 51st state"

House GOP wants $4 TRILLION dollar debt ceiling increase. You marks really thought the world’s richest man and the guy with the golden toilet seats were really going to “fight the elites” for you? Nah, they just want their tax breaks.

Head of DOGE Elon Musk has received a new $38,858,978 government contract for his company SpaceX. Musk is self-determining his own conflicts of interest.

It's called The Gulf of Mexico. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

I’m not sure why I have so many new followers but I’m working my way through following everyone back—while vetting—in my free time, of which I have an abysmal lack. It does my rebellious heart good to see so many people who love democracy connecting to each other. 💙

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Who else thinks we really need an upside-down American flag emoji right now?

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

I’m not a lawyer and I don’t give out legal advice, but I’d rather throw my legs up over my head and scrape the backs of my thighs with a cheese grater than accept a deferred resignation offer from these unfuckable douchelords.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Really love this cartoon from the great Michael De Adder. The outpouring of support coming in has been truly amazing! Thanks everybody!

This aged well.

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

So true.

😂😂😂

As the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wisely said, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." Today and every day, I pledge to never silence my voice in the fight for what is right, and I will continue to march in the path he forged toward justice.

In the dark days ahead let all people of substance stand together against oppression. Let us actively listen to understand, and undertake, what is needed to truly be an ally. Let us cling to the dreams of those upon whose shoulders we stand. Let us be neither cowed nor silent. Apathy is the enemy.

“We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.” - Dr. Martin Luther King
