If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you. If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you. If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you. We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out.

Son: Are we better off now? Dad: Well son, mom & dad have both lost their jobs. Our savings are gone, gas & grocery prices are up. We did, however, save you from drag queen story time. Son: What's that? Dad: A mythical thing they said was happening in your school, which we can't afford anymore.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

The anxiety is palpable. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLe9...

A recent analysis found that when Trump imposed tariffs during his first term, companies who contributed to Republicans were more likely to be granted tariff exemptions. Trump's corporate donors won't shoulder the cost of his trade wars. It's crony capitalism at its worst.

If anyone from the Ukraine somehow sees this, I am so sorry for how my horrific president treated Zelensky and your country. I am so, so sorry. I can't even begin to express how horrified and embarrassed so many of us are right now. Slava Ukraini

I homeschool my eldest. We are currently learning about the American Revolution. Today we read through the entire Declaration of Independence.

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

NEW: Elon Musk and his team have posted classified data on DOGE's new website www.huffpost.com/entry/elon-m...

Trump officials fired nuclear staff not realizing they oversee the country’s weapons stockpile, sources say www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/c...

I posted yesterday about a family that’s dealing with a catastrophic bird flu infection in their cats. They’re dealing with enough right now, and don’t need unkind comments. But it does seem that the contaminant was a commercially prepared, batch tested raw food. *Please stop feeding raw right now.*

I can’t believe the Supreme Court said the president was above the law and now the president is acting like he’s above the law.

As I get ready to de-phone for the weekend, I want to leave everyone with some positive news. There is a universal anti venom in animal trials right now. It’s going well and it has the potential to save many lives.

An attempt to identify and explain some of the biggest things that happened each week, and draw attention to some that have been overlooked.

The 19th century term describes the perceived right of Americans to use force or the threat of force to wrest desirable land from the grasp of others.

Just received this photo from a friend of a warehouse in Kinshasa. These are tuberculosis medications--ALREADY PAID FOR--that aren't being distributed due to the Trump Administration's stop work order. TB treatment is being interrupted in SO many patients around the world. What does that mean? (1/2)

Trump hasn't done a lick to address rising grocery costs despite campaigning to bring them down on "day one." And his CDC deleted reports on the spread of bird flu, which is driving up egg prices. But don't worry, he just promised an executive order to bring back plastic straws.

Know your rights. www.aclu.org/know-your-ri... www.civilservicestrong.org Get organized peoplepower.org Use the courts whistleblower.org Call your politicians. If they don’t answer, show up 3 congressional seats up for election in April (FL-1, FL-3, NY-21). Support however you can.

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging: 1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal. 2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.

there’s no way to say this without sounding like a bowl of extra useless crunchy granola i realize that but my god is it ever important to turn that panic energy into caring-for-your-communities energy

This is a work in progress. I threw this together quickly and will add and vet more tomorrow.

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office. Here’s a recap of what’s happening:

If you wanted to decrease the cost of homes, one thing you wouldn’t do is put a flat tariff on your main source of timber.

“Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic,” they said. “That means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice and a third, a fourth. Then what happens?”

The fucking sin of empathy? I know this daft prick is a rat, but when the fuck has empathy been a sin?

Intelligence officials are starting to leak to me now too. Here’s a memo Defense Intelligence Agency personnel received instructing them to suspend observances including: - Holocaust Remembrance Day - MLK Day - Juneteenth

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.

Trump's Day One executive orders: -Ended recognition of birthright citizenship -Withdrew from WHO and Paris Climate Accord -Rescinded Biden's EO to lower Rx costs -Pardoned Jan 6 rioters -Renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America So much for helping working families.

Don't forget that just hours before he took office, Trump became a crypto billionaire by shilling a worthless meme coin. And of course he didn't divest from any of his other businesses. Is it any wonder that ethics are out the window in the second Trump administration?

The Trump administration snuck fetal personhood into their anti-trans executive order

I very strongly encourage folks to check out this long-form conversation I had with @AdamConover.net on his Factually! podcast (recorded just two days ago) focusing on offering context and busting myths surrounding the devastating Los Angeles #wildfires. www.youtube.com/watc...

i don’t understand how, psychologically, a person gets to a place where they interpret sign language as some kind of attack or imposition on their life. like, what the fuck is wrong with you?

new emoji i would like to see 👀

SIMPLY HAVING A

People with homes are so rarely cold at night that I just don’t think homes are necessary anymore.
