Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

As of Friday, there have been 46 cases in which federal judges have blocked Trump policies. The rulings in those cases have come from 39 different judges appointed by 5 different presidents (of both parties) to 11 different district courts across 7 different circuits. Maybe it's not the judges?

Trump doesn’t like this picture of himself on display at the Colorado Capitol. You know what to do.

"No person shall... be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law" is a much clearer and more enforceable standard than "due process shall be provided when rationally ordered to the common good."

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.

Free Mahmoud Khalil

submitted 25 days ago • 3 comments

Right now there is clear, overwhelming opposition to Mahmoud Khalil’s abduction across the moderate, liberal, progressive & left spectrum. This kind of loud unity is what authoritarians are afraid of. To keep it up we need every institution & public leader to join the chorus.

ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

From my interview with Congressman Jim Himes. Watch Rep. Himes do a perfect takedown of Elon Musk:

One of the very first major social media influence campaigns Putin ran in the US promoted anti-vaxx. Like his cultivation of Trump, it worked.

Feel like we need to start developing a different form of posting here. Ones which don't chase the new but restate what matters. Like: None of these "cuts" Musk is doing are legal. None. He has no authority to cut, dissolve, fire, vaporize. He's an extraordinary criminal, a traitor to the US.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

To every Senate Dem: Shut it the fuck down. Trump’s unconstitutional chaos will kill people. 1️⃣ Oppose all nominees until OMB reverses the freeze. 2️⃣ Deny Unanimous Consent to slow Senate proceedings. 3️⃣ Vote no on all Cloture. 4️⃣ Force Quorum Calls at every opportunity. It's time to fight.

I appear on @CNN often. And if saying this means my days at CNN are over, then fuck it. CNN, removing @Acosta.bsky.social from his am show is cowardly bullshit. Acosta is an independent, unafraid host. To demote him to appease the crybaby in the White House is pathetic. Shame on u CNN. Don’t do it.

You can't shame MAGA. It's impossible to shame shameless people. I go on and debate them, trust me. They will make excuses for and glorify Musk's Nazi salute and Trump pardoning violent insurrectionists. But remember there's a world out there - and the majority opposes it. Be loud. Don't be silent.

President-elect Musk is really setting down the marker of how he wants to run his administration. VP Trump better pay attention.

Pregnancy is considered a pre-existing medical condition if you're already pregnant when you sign up for health insurance. However, under the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies can't deny coverage or charge more for pre-existing conditions, including pregnancy. Don’t cut our health care!

Republican senators, you know we can see you, right? If you vote for a drunk, white supremacist, misogynist, alleged of rape, to lead the finest military on the planet, and give him the nuclear codes endangering not only us, but the world, EVERYONE will know.
