If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

ProPublica found that some of the largest health insurers have created a playbook that prevents people from getting the mental health care they need. Join us tomorrow, Feb. 20 at 4 p.m. ET for a virtual conversation as we discuss barriers to care. RSVP: https://propub.li/4k4GYWm

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

“The ongoing measles outbreak in West Texas has doubled in size to 48 cases, mostly in children and teens, making it the state’s worst in nearly 30 years.” apnews.com/article/meas...

Trust me, bro.

A reminder.

This seems important

SpaceX.. shut it down.

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.

We just got to make sure every voter in Maine knows next year that her act of pretending to be a “moderate” independent of Trump and MAGA is a fraud. I intend to do everything in my power to facilitate that, and these kind of posts are extremely helpful.

The problem with American political discourse is that you can’t explain the impact of tariffs to people dumb enough to think DEI programs cause plane crashes.

Do yourself and democracy a favor. Support independent media.

BREAKING: 88 FBI agents who worked on Trump cases were just physically escorted out of the Washington Field office per a source.

They tried to erase history. We loudly said "Hell no." They folded. We should say "Hell no" a lot more.

A very polite way of saying that there will be retribution against Trump’s political enemies. Support fearlessly independent, pro-democracy media. Subscribe to Democracy Docket for free. www.democracydocket.com/me-subscribe...

In the face of everything one thing I am looking forward to is the pair of Black history month displays I have planned for the library next month. One is on little known Black history figures, the other is on Timbuktu and the Mali empire. It's a small measure of resistance but it's mine.

The USAF has reversed itself "after uproar." We must continue to pay attention. We must continue to preserve & share the stories of the Tuskegee Airmen & the Women Airforce Service Pilots. I promised them I would always tell their stories. You can too. Knowledge is power! www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

The guys telling you DEI is dropping our military standards... ...can't even spell military.

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.

I’m so sorry, Christopher. Please know we will always remember and honor your mom’s uncle. That bigoted behemoth in the White House will never succeed in erasing the legacy of the brave, brilliant Tuskegee Airmen.

if 19 year old olivia can use her platforms to raise her voice and spread awareness about horrible situations going on in the world, you can do it too!!

People are seeking books to teach their kids about diversity & belonging. What I hear: They're looking for books from a plethora of perspectives! Here are a few books, you & your kids may already be reading them ☺️ (🧵 1/4)

Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this. Smashed records. Curtesy of Garrett Roberts.

They shall henceforth be referred to as swasticars by me too. 😂

@marcelias.bsky.social: "There is a reason why Trump nominated Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, Pete Hegseth. He wants to humiliate these Republicans, because he knows that once they have voted for these folks, he will own them. They will not have a shred of dignity or standing left."

Canada, Panama, and Greenland are not enemies of the United States. Fascists are though, both foreign and domestic.

We will have victories and setbacks, good days and bad. We must understand that this will not be over in one election or with the defeat of any one candidate. This is the fight of our generation, and it will take time. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

H/t George Conway — it’s perfect 🤣 from Olivia Julianna:

This is your mission. We take our power back now at the local and state level. Stop waiting for a national hero. It’s you. Get to work.
