During WWII, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived. His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. Slava Ukraine! Heroyam Slava! 💙💛

Maddow: Oh, you want us to take your fork in the road? How about fork you? Here's a million spoon emojis.

Excellent article re the effects of Trump's tariff war, "...the new tariffs could do serious damage to the Mexican economy, and past economic downturns in Mexico have spurred migration to the United States. As life in Mexico gets less pleasant, moving to the United States becomes more attractive."

do you enjoy knowing that when you deposit money in a US bank, you won't lose that money? nice, right? it's because bank deposits are insured by FDIC. i don't know what FDIC ever did to these people, but apparently it too is now on their blow-it-up list: www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Rep. Jasmine Crockett continues to be on 🔥 #ResistTrump

Spot on. Perfect wide perspective aftermath of consecutive actions and decisions leading to accountability escape attempt and blaming game. IN PLAIN SIGHT !! Thanks @maddow.msnbc.com to take time to explain this. Debunk and name things as they are. You're a courageous journalist.

REPORTER: Is there an acting FAA director? DUFFY: *walks away* (The FAA director resigned on the day of Trump's inauguration under pressure from Elon Musk)

Donald Trump takes the tools of dictators and adapts them for the Internet. We should expect him to try to cling to power until death, and create a cult of January 6th martyrs, Timothy Snyder writes.

As this is "Day Two," I'm going to check to see if there are no longer taxes on tips, the border has been sealed, and the war in Ukraine is over. 👀

Let's hope the legal guardrails can withstand the MAGA assault.

Thank you, Cecile, for being a warrior for women's rights and autonomy. May your beautiful soul rest in peace. 💞

Never forget January 6.

When the senate starts to try to confirm these cabinet nominations and democratic senators are asking them questions-----Every one of them needs to be asked "Who won the 2020 Presidential election". Watch them all squirm to try not to offend their Dear Leader.

@raskin.house.gov thank you for taking the helm and continuing to fight for our democracy. You, kind sir, are a beacon of hope and resilience!

Sen. Ruben Gallego’s son told Kamala Harris he’s sorry she didn’t win the election. Here’s her response:

QUOTE OF THE DAY…if you LIKE IT give it 💙and plz RP😘😘

A Tesla truck caught fire and exploded outside the hotel on Wednesday morning, authorities say. One person died inside the vehicle, while seven who were nearby received minor injuries.

These are well-worth the quick, yet deep, read...

Jimmy Carter was the best of us. You can only hope to achieve a fraction of the good he did with the time we each have. RIP.

Gloria Steinem spoke at my college graduation (Tufts 1987). I still remember : “If you have to choose character or intelligence--in a friend or in a candidate--choose character. Intelligence without character is dangerous, but character without intelligence only slows down a good result.”

Love Paola Ramos and @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social! Have you read Paola's book, Defectors? I'm in the middle of it...so thought-provoking! Still need to check out Jacob's too but I am always impressed with him.

Don’t like a book? Don’t read it. Pretty simple.

@carolmondavo.com You are SUCH a talented narrator! We first discovered you when listening to Nineteen Minutes by @jodipicoult.bsky.social & were so impressed, we sought out other books you've narrated! We just finished The Book of the Most Precious Substance, by Sara Gran & were equally impressed!

If you’d told me on Jan 6th 2021 that the man responsible for that horrific attack would end up returning to the office he tried to steal that day, and that he’d do so after calling the attackers “heroes” & “hostages” he was going to pardon, I’d have thought you were out of your damn mind. And yet…

LOVE this idea! #BuyBannedBooks

This moment in Bluesky is a great example of how joy itself can be defiance and resistance. We are just hanging out, shitposting, being silly, happy, and normal. It is being treated as if it is transgressive, opting out of the endless negativity. Because in a way, it is. Joy is my favorite weapon.
