European friends: Do not accept lectures on democracy & freedom of speech from an Administration that denies the 2020 election results and is now suing & intimidating news outlets whose reporting they don’t like. Stand tall against right-wing extremism. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/w...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Drop the paywall on news! It's a huge problem people can read Fox News and Newsmax for free but to get the stories produced by journalists, they have to beg for a gift link or check out if someone saved it on the Internet Archive.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Americans HATED Jan. 6. That the political opposition wasn't able to harness that and turn it into a lasting defeat of Trumpism will be one of the defining stories of the 2020s, if not the century.

This is embarrassingly stupid. This is literally Senate Dems handing censorship power to Donald Trump and Elon Musk. WTF are they thinking?

Trump proving beyond a doubt he is working for Russia, is now openly attacking Zelenskyy and Ukraine after failing to blackmail them for trillions of dollars. Everyday Trump is president is a 100 years of shame and embarrassment for the United States.

Transgender men's invisibility is violent erasure. Sam Nordquist, a 24-year-old transgender man, was tortured for over a month to death, and his slaughter is not being considered a hate crime. The media has gone to disgusting lengths to minimize Sam's transgender identity. Hardly anyone is outraged.

BIG NEWS: We're holding DOGE accountable. It's not "efficient" to allow Elon Musk's operatives to mess with the systems that send Social Security checks or pay for your mom’s doctor through Medicare. It's dangerous for the economy and a breach of privacy for millions of Americans.

He says here that "he'll act quickly to correct mistakes." Has he publicly corrected his 'condoms for Gaza' mistake? Apologized? How about Trump seated a few feet away, who claimed Hamas made bombs from US condoms? Any correction? Apology? Of course not. These people lie & lie & lie & lie.

I worked in a Senate office during HS 20+ years ago and can say this is 100% true. When answering the phone, we kept a clipboard to tally which issues people were calling about. Ten or more calls on an issue were considered a big deal!

Get to DC this weekend if you possibly can. Otherwise get to your state capital or protest at local government buildings. Remember to take pictures and post them and spread the protest as much as you can. Courage is contagious! #3E #USProtests
