My congressman, Tim Moore (R) whom I did NOT vote for, has emailed a weekly update that he cosponsored a bill for Stablecoins—STABLE Act. Please someone explain this and whether this is a good thing or bad 🤔

Making people fear that: - They’re gonna lose their healthcare - Their families & friends are gonna be deported - They’re gonna lose their Social Security - Their kids are gonna lose their education IS RADICAL DOMESTIC TERRORISM Pass it on…

Ukrainian. 🇺🇦 My pronoun is “Fuck Trump”.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

💥 Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey has sued Starbucks for its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The lawsuit alleges: "Starbuck’s workface has become more female and less white." (Page 29) WORKFACE? 😳 ago.mo.gov/wp-content/u...

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

The CFPB has: -Returned $20B to victims of financial fraud -Cracked down on junk fees -Fought against politically-motivated debanking -Protected veterans from predatory lenders -Protected consumers' data from corporate abuse Oligarchs want to reverse all of this.

America’s Enabling Act moment: Congress’ coming denouement and the Reichstag test: As echoes of 1933 grow louder, will Congress act or must the American people shut the country down?

Dept. of Education revokes guidance on Title IX and athlete pay

I used to live in SC and still get emails from Rep Norman (SC 5) and this is his list of egregious USAID payments found by DOGE:

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Senate Democrats are considering voting NO or delaying every Trump nominee as retaliation for his overreach on ending USAID. Smash the RT if you SUPPORT this plan. ZERO votes from Democrats!!

You know, if a small percentage of the US Electorate were just fine with a woman President, I'd be sitting here on a Saturday morning, enjoying my coffee, and not Doom Scrolling wondering what on earth is going on

Dear Canada and Mexico, We’re so, so sorry. — Sane America

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, or scream... or all of the above.

The Right launches smear campaign against the transgender community in response to DC crash #despicable

I just learned that a friend who works in Navajo Nation as a physician’s assistant has been asked to resign. Trump is therefore stripping Native Americans of healthcare and my friend of her job that she loves. 🤬

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

As chilling a meme as I have seen. But I agree.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”
