In Wisconsin, browns_brewers from Twitter. Just a retired dude wondering why the fuck so many in this country vote against their own interests. My first POTUS vote was Jimmy Carter, he lost but I never gave up. Lifelong Democrat. đź’™

"The Court finds that there is a substantial likelihood that plaintiff will succeed on the merits. The effort by the White House to terminate the Special Counsel without identifying any cause plainly contravenes the statute."

We’re not going to split kids into “haves” and “have nots,” especially in the lunchroom. We’re feeding our children - and saving families millions of dollars along the way. It’s that simple.

Fucking disgusting.

Tesla, whose chief executive, Elon Musk, has been advising President Trump on how to cut government spending, is likely to receive a lucrative contract to supply armored versions of its Cybertruck pickup to the State Department, according to public documents.

Murphy: "I continue to get reports from Connecticut that agencies there, like Head Start programs and community health centers, are actually not receiving the funding they are due. So I think there's a big question as to whether the administration actually is implementing the court order."

As we start another week, my law firm is litigating 46 voting and election cases in 19 states. A team starts trial to protect the Voting Rights Act in Alabama tomorrow! Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of democracy and democracy is on the docket.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

A case of tuberculosis has been confirmed at a Michigan school. Just as the Senate considers an avowed anti-vaxxer to lead our nation’s health agencies.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

The hashtag #ETTD has a new meaning these days.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here at Bluesky for the follows and the conversations and the constructive, substantive interaction. It's a great forum, a great resource for circulating and talking about the news, and -- most of all -- a pleasure. I'm grateful!

FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA. There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head. So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

This is a good question. In 2017 big law firms spoke out and pledged to take cases pro bono. This time, it's ominously quiet. I fear Big Law, like big business is hedging to avoid being on Trump's enemies list. Shameful.

Setting quotas of arrests per day. You know what happens when you have a quota to meet? Scoop them up and let the court sort it out. They will be grabbing anyone they can. No proof of citizenship on your person? Too bad. That’s an arrest. Look “illegal?” Explain it to the court someday.

Please pay attention to this case being argued in the 4th Circuit tomorrow. It could determine whether the GOP succeeds in stealing a NC Supreme Court seat by disenfranchising 60,000 voters. Follow @democracydocket.com for full coverage of this critical case. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

ATTN: This is most important court hearing to watch next week. The GOP does not want this case in federal court because they know a federal judge is not likely to toss out 60,000 lawful votes. Their plan is to have the partisan NC state Supreme Court decide. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

If you are a federal employee, it is advised to set your social media accounts to private to prevent outside viewership, as reports suggest that loyalty screenings have begun.

I’m telling everyone: Do not open the door or say a word unless you’re expecting someone and know exactly who it is. Know your rights. Pass these around…

Squid Game is basically a Richard Bachman novelette.

I will remove the mailbox from our yard if that happens.

This woman gives 💯 in everything she does. She’s a tireless advocate who doesn’t take no for an answer. She & I fight for what is right. We’re fiercely loyal friends and we won’t back down from a challenge. When it comes to chosen family, I’m proud to call @jasmineforus.bsky.social, my sister. ♥️

5th person to be cured of HIV “Today, researchers announced the Dusseldorf patient still has no detectable virus in his body, even after stopping his HIV medication four years ago.”

So now some of these so-called Caitlin Clark fans are mad because she acknowledged and elevated the contributions of Black WNBA players and that benefits from white privilege. In short, some of them are mad CC isn’t the racist they wanted her to be.

Eliminating Social Security and Medicare will make the Republican's next recession another Great Depression and we all know what came after that.

If we all find 100 posts to like every day, engagement and good will on @bsky.app grows exponentially. Is it worth a few minutes to make the platform stronger ?

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane. We have turned them into Sub Prime Lenders 🧵

Holy shit Queen dropped this on their YT channel a couple weeks ago. If you listen closely to Brian's guitar you'll hear Rory Gallagher. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VMh...

Supreme Court 18-year term limit bill should be just the beginning: — 13 justices — 7 clerks per justice — single 18-year term — binding code of ethics with punishments all the way up to impeachment — full investigation of corrupt gifts to Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, et al.

Finally a sane place where I might even be able to interact with my own daughter on social media. Give that girl a follow folks she's pretty cool. [email protected]
