This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

Trump and Musk’s illegal power grabs are hurting working people. They’re gutting Medicaid, public education and the VA all to pay for billionaire tax cuts. Today thousands of people showed up at the State House to say we are ready to fight back.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Trans people have a right to identification that accurately represents who we are. We've taken President Trump to court to block the policy preventing trans people like Hunter from receiving passports with correct gender markers.

Donald Trump’s firing of military leaders — four-star General Brown and four-star Admiral Franchetti — along with top legal officers is a betrayal of legions of first rate service members who dedicate their lives to our nation’s defense. This is a growing national security risk.

Really enjoying the stories about congressmen getting yelled at about DOGE shit in their town halls. Not because I feel like it's necessarily going to move things in the right direction in the next election cycle or two, really. I just like stories about congressmen getting yelled at I think.

We aren't "approaching" autocracy. We're not "on the road" to dictatorship. We're not "sliding" toward a Constitutional crisis. We are here. We have been here. The moment already came and went. And the road back out narrows by the hour.

We're already in a housing crisis - homeowners deserve better than predatory business practices that strip them of hard-earned home equity and put them as risk of foreclosure. We're suing Hometap, a home equity investment company, for preying on vulnerable homeowners for profit.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Indeed. The Supreme Court gave the President a carte blanche (unless Congress does its job and removes this clown), but Secretaries who violate the law do not have that protection - nor should they!

One of the more successful ways I've been messaging Musk to my rightwing family and friends (albeit a small sample size) is to say: Billionaires do not work for free to make your life better. They work to make themselves richer often by taking money from you. Musk fired cops holding him accountable
