It’s embarrassing to be a white person in Trumps America right now. I want to thank my Major Taylor LA team for always being so warm and welcoming to me. How many white groups in our history can say the same about welcoming black folks?

Current mood

💥The Netherlands' largest pension fund, has sold its shares in Tesla, Meta, and Alphabet (Google). The fund with US $569 billion equivolent in assets is "directing more money to companies and projects that help to improve society and the environment." #Divest www.reuters.com/markets/euro...

He nails it.

Trump just made a civilian the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The Chairman is legally required to be an active-duty military officer. Trump is scared of our officers, knowing full well they will absolutely deny an illegal order!

Right after he was seen getting into a cab with Lauren Boebert at 2:30 AM after a party.

It’s only right for him to be on the first flight to Mars. It’s his baby.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Marge just discovered explosive new evidence from a 2016 press conference.

Where did Trump get the 4% number from? That’s what Putin told him in their recent phone call. The American president takes lies about our allies directly from Putin and asserts they are true to the American people without telling them he got those lies from Putin.

It's not lost on me that the two Democratic electeds talking consistently to regular people right now are AOC and Jasmine Crockett. Dassit.

two different Zürich coffee shop baristas have given me free coffee as a consolation for being American, so i've got that going for me i guess

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

How lucky are we that Bluesky exists during this moment

Three updates: 1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

Desantis bought the Kari Lake filter.

I mean- If we're serious about saving money......

The goal here, of course, is a self-fulfilling spiral of stupidity. You fire a bunch of worker because you say government isn't efficient. Then when people need help, there aren't enough workers to help them. And you say, "See? I told you government doesn't work." And the rubes believe you.

White supremacy is a death march, and fascism is the drumbeat pushing it forward. We have a choice: resist or be dragged down with it.
