MAGA has a bill that would disenfranchise someone you know. The SAVE Act is the GOP’s attempt at mass voter suppression disguised as an election integrity bill: indivisibleteam.medium.com/maga-has-a-b...

Take action this week: Call to oppose this (other) bad educational bill! SB 68 – Establish the Non-Chartered Educational Savings Account Program www.legislature.ohio.gov/legislation/...

Here we go. Certain generals must be removed before any martial law plan is put into action—as Trump and Hegseth are worried there may still be some generals out there who support the Constitution rather than his proposed dictatorship. This is a political purge intended as a precursor to far more.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

How utterly humiliating for the great and mighty U.S. to have allowed racism and fear to lead it to this.

About 50% of his rockets explode in mid air but sure, let Elon "fix aviation"

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

I am not sure people are going to grasp how bad this one is, I'm already seeing people saying "mail is the least of our worries" uhhh I think you should be worried

Senator Ron Johnson should be in prison for his part in the fake electors scheme, not conducting investigations. We're in Upsidedownlandia.

It’s like this: Law firms use the word KITTY in all caps in their standard legal docs, so it’s easy to find and replace the PLACEHOLDER word with the client’s name. SocSec uses a ridiculous “birthday” in 1875 as a PLACEHOLDER when a birthday is unclear. To find and correct later. Duh, Elon, duh.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

I think we should all watch this, tonight, and discuss.

“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...

The original Fort Bragg was named for Gen. Braxton Bragg, a Confederate general. Pete Hegseth has renamed the the base to honor U.S. Army paratrooper Roland L. Bragg to keep the name. Was he too drunk to know the difference or is he using a technicality to hide his racism?

Elon Musk posted these two tweets on the same day

It's back to bed for me it's raining out. Have a nice day 😂👍🌷

We need to remember what we’re capable of. Every day let your mind be blown by something you do, read, listen to, or create. That is one way we get through this—to remain open to everything that is wondrous in the world. www.marytrump.org/p/what-it-co...

When I was a kid my mother found me in the bathroom scrubbing my face with Comet scouring powder. I’d just noticed my freckles and was determined to get rid of them. A book like this would have reassured me that they were fine. This book is now banned from schools operated by the Dept of Defense.

Y'all...really? "Other titles that have been caught up in the review include a book by the American Oscar-winning actor Julianne Moore. Freckleface Strawberry, also for four-to-eight year olds, features a young girl coming to terms with her freckles."

One of many books being pulled from shelves & “compliance reviewed” by the DOD - about a 7 yr old girl coming to terms with her freckles. WTF?! This censorship affects up to 67,000 children in schools for military families worldwide - 160 schools, in seven US states and 11 countries. Disgraceful.

🧵 It’s Sunday morning, and eggs are still expensive, so here’s a pro baking tip: You can replace eggs with baking soda & vinegar. This works really well for pancakes (and even cakes, muffins, and quick breads). Here’s how ⬇️ (1/4)

Picture book of the day - A VACCINE IS LIKE A MEMORY, by @rajanilarocca.bsky.social (who's an MD as well as a children's author!), illustrated by Kathleen Marcotte. Explaining the science behind vaccines is essential to combat fear & misinformation. bookshop.org/p/books/a-va...

These absolute morons are going to destroy the United States. If you’re in favor of the US leaving NATO, you either don’t want the US to succeed, or you don’t know wtf NATO does. Worth noting that Mike Lee voted to expand NATO in 2022.

Guys...

News organizations must present a united front against an attempt to stifle the free press -Jim Acosta open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...

More book banning and revision or erasure of history.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

Donald Trump fired the people who make sure you and your parents get the health care you need. The people who make sure medical devices are safe for you to use. The people who approve the lifesaving drugs you rely on. How does this help working people?

The very first thing he did was a Nazi salute.

We need Pete.

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat. Now is a time for courage. www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...
