If you’re siding with Vladimir Putin, you’re wrong.

A really important email from my friend Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social . As he says "this is a 5 alarm fire." America is under attack right now.

Obama knew

Has anyone called Bitcoin “Dunning-Krugerrand” yet?

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social why are you not posting on here first ? You have some great things to say. You are trying some great things. Yet you post on X where 100pct of the replies are meaningless and hateful. It's not all roses here, but the engagement has depth and real convos happen

Yesterday domestic terrorists attempted to intimidate me and Michael Fanone (imagine that 🙄) Longer video coming soon. Heading back out to go inspire and get in good trouble. 🫶🏽✌🏽

That’s it Zelenskyy, call their bluff!

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Do this. Say this. 👇🏻

Our transgender friends are living in a waking nightmare in Trumpworld. We all need to step up & protect their right to be their authentic selves.

I am proud that my law firm is currently litigation 48 voting and election cases in 18 states.

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

An idea for a tune i had this morning. It's going to be killer when it's done. Here's a preview of About That Kiss. I hope you enjoy, subscribe and like! <ever the optimist> youtu.be/zC0SBBW7C1E

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Got it!!!

The thing about social media is that when you open an app and see good news, you should repost it, stop scrolling, and close your browser. Don't keep putting money in the slot machine once you've won the jackpot. Take your cute dog photos and go before you get 5 more planes falling out of the sky.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

This is true. @bsky.app is the app of the people. We may not all agree. We may not even all like each other. But we can engage and disagree and agree with our hate That makes the platform the future of social media

Sure looks like Google News caught the Latin Times using a large language model to write an article picking up on my latest report

Waiting for my mom at my parents’ favorite breakfast place and all the guys at the counter are talking about how many times they’ve been electrocuted at work: “My pahtnah saw a pretty girl so he turned and lit me up like a fuckin’ Christmas tree so I threw a hammah at his head” I love this place

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Save and share

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family.   By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

Fuck Kash Patel

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

Thank you to @maddow.msnbc.com for promoting @bsky.app on air and complimenting it. Her on air support is truly important

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”

surely it will never be any kind of problem that TX now staples a 4 page template of legally bonkers statutory autocannons onto each session's worst legislation. here's the end result of courts allowing SB8: just put in your bill that courts can't rule against it! galaxy brain legal hack apparently

Rose is one of thousands of federal workers who have been terminated by the Trump administration. At 26, she's left wondering what to do now.

This is unheard of in American history. Absolutely insane in peace time.

Covert warfare.

NEW: @wired.com can confirm that two DOGE members—Edward "Big Balls" Coristine and Kyle Schutt—are now listed as staff at CISA, the agency tasked with protecting US cybersecurity and keeping hackers out of critical infrastructure. @kimzetter.bsky.social reports: www.wired.com/story/doge-c...

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

NEW: A blockbuster ruling in Wisconsin hands vote suppressors a big loss. A victory for voting rights! Paige and I explain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXur...

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

@juliusgoat.bsky.social

Last Fall, the Washington Post allowed a right wing group to run a full page ad falsely attacking me for protecting voting rights. Today, Bezos' paper won't accept ads criticizing Elon Musk. Support pro-democracy media. www.democracydocket.com/me-subscribe...
