Ahem

So Trump hurt America's relationship with Canada and made markets wobble all to "get" Canada to do things Canada had announced back in December in coordination with the Biden administration, do I have that right?

Nearly 250,000 people in Berlin showed up to protest fascism and the Musk backed AfD party.

This Black History Month, as our communities battle attempts to whitewash history, use us as scapegoats, and undo our civil rights, we must show up louder than ever before. Let us celebrate the Black LGBTQ+ leaders who came before us and let their legacy guide us.

Yass!

GIFT ARTICLE: The thing is- Trump does not have the authority to shutter FEMA, which would require congressional action. Things could change but historically, lawmakers from both parties have supported FEMA, knowing that their district or state could need the agency’s help at any time.

Fucking South African Nazi.

Trumpsters often say, “Politicians don’t keep it real or say what’s on their mind, but Trump does,” and that’s what they like about him. MAGA, please meet Anders Vistisen of Denmark… About Greenland: “Mr. Trump, f*ck off, It’s not for sale.”

To understand how an attack on birthright citizenship will be carried out, let alone prevail, it’s important to know what stands in the way of it. @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social reports on the playbook, decades in the making.

For all Trump's talk of manufacturing jobs, you didn't see the CEOs of GE and Caterpillar sitting in the prime seats today. You saw the CEOs of Amazon and X and Meta and Google and TikTok. It's the attentional oligarchs whose power he cares about.

Three things that remain true, no matter what Trump does: 1) Trans people have as much right to express their identities with dignity as anyone else. 2) Immigrants are awesome, create wealth, and make our culture better. 3) Trade with people around the world enriches us, and not just financially.

When Republicans “claim to be the party of law and order, Americans should remember the day that [Trump] was willing to sacrifice the men and women of the thin blue line on the altar of his own ambitions,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social writes:

SHAMEFULLY this was UNREPORTED by MOST American MEDIA! If YOU come across ANY of these posts, PLEASE REPOST, let the word out! It’s up to us! Thousands of people from around the United States rallied in the nation’s capital Saturday, days before Trump’s second inauguration.

Today and every day…words to live by…

The celebrated early democracies of Greece and Rome fell after 200 years, and wisdom says that’s how long it took the people to forget how important it was to have a voice rather than a power-hungry figurehead. I have been sadly alert to this day’s arrival since the USA’s 200th, in 1976. 🥺😞😥👿👿👿

And please spare the bullshit. Trump WILL pardon many criminals over the next four years, whether Biden pardoned patriots who committed no crime or not.

Read it and get ready to fight this…thank you @wyden.senate.gov for sharing with us!

🤷🏼‍♂️

Watching so many people having spent money to go to the inauguration, and then Trump canceling it because he’s worried about the pictures and small crowds, is a perfect picture of his whole relationship with his supporters. They give and give, he takes and takes.

Were you lied to?

Listen up.

Timeline and mind cleanse to make you smile! Here is our foster 🐶 Mitzi! Isn’t she adorable?

He’s not wrong.

@marcelias.bsky.social: "I am more powerful than Elon Musk, I am more powerful than Mark Zuckerberg, and I am more powerful than Jeff Bezos, because I can say right now out loud, fuck you, Donald Trump, fuck you. And they can't afford to do that."

An American city is on fire and the world’s richest man has done nothing but lie and make it worse. Thank you to the people who are actually putting their lives on the line to save this country and fuck that spoiled rotten limp dick South African and any of the tough guys who live to kiss his ass.

I fear there is deep truth here.

BREAKING: Republicans aim to INCREASE insulin costs Trumpers in Congress introduce bill to KILL the $35/mo cap on insulin prices that Biden passed To hurt 8.4 million Americans who rely on insulin And to help Big Pharma and insurance THAT is what Trump and the GOP represent

Just 0.017 percent of youth were coded as trans and received puberty blockers. And just 0.037 percent were trans and accessed hormone therapy. “There’s a lot of attention being spent on an issue that only affects a very, very, very tiny part of the population.”

Just so we are all on the same page here…it’s never just him mouthing off without intent…
