Every liberal "paper of record": maybe the fascists have a point Eater: Know your rights

Elon Musk and Republicans are trying to buy a seat on Wisconsin’s Supreme Court for Brad Schimel & end its 4-3 liberal majority. The election is April 1, & donating to Judge Susan Crawford or volunteering is one of the best ways you can help fight back against far-right oligarchy right now

This every goddamn day

One more time for the people in the back: Trump does not give a f*ck about working folks!

Peace in our time

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

When he declares himself king, he is insulting you—and the nation. You have rights. The government is YOURS. And our loyalty is to the Constitution—the profound and fundamental essence of our nation. Not him. True patriots don’t bow down to kings.

🚨 Elon Musk is trying to buy another election. The Wisconsin Supreme Court race is just over a month away, and Musk will spend over half a million dollars to support a MAGA extremist who wants to enforce a 175-year-old abortion ban. We can't match Musk's money but we have the power of the people. 🧵

During WWII, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived. His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. Sláva Ukrayíni!

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Agree with @jvl.bsky.social on the reality of the Ukraine capitulation. "There are three spheres of influence and we are going to carve out our sphere in North and South American and the Chinese get theirs in the Indo-Pacific and the Russians get theirs in Europe" www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDrt...

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

Heartbreaking story. Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, age 11, took her own life after her bullies constantly threatened to call ICE to have her Hispanic parents deported. Her story is one of the many real human consequences of Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric. youtu.be/vwMGdnM24Cw?...

Ding ding ding! Watch this. He’s laying it out. My team at Stanford Internet Observatory documented this process meticulously, over & over again, in 2020. The R machine retaliated against us. When Elon bought X, it became even sharper. The rest of the political spectrum needs to get in the game.

Donate!! Republicans need to lose every election in 2025. www.crawfordforwi.com

True story.

Turns out people don't like you when you act like a jerk.

I’m sure it’s just my TDS, but I think Trump is proving to be exactly as bad as we said he was going to be and people who acted like we were hysterical should be embarrassed they didn’t do more to try and stop it.

Let’s see what motivates this guy to join DOG…oh

They bet the farm and lost: With Trump and Musk driving U.S. policy, Kansas farmers have been played for suckers kansasreflector.com/2025/02/12/w...

an actual targeted boycott with specific demands is being organized; this is good!

🚨 WHOA!!! Sen. Whitehouse: Mark my words. This Patel guy will come back to haunt you. Every piece of evidence shows that.

Brianna Keilar: Do you think that calling Elon Musk a dick is effective messaging? Congressman Robert Garcia: Well, he is a dick.

I don't think it's obvious because of the overwhelming amount of chaos in the news, but this is the biggest shift in American foreign policy since 1945. This is a titanic shift, and I'm not sure anyone knows what the result is going to be.

You have questions. Mostly of the "What Can I Do to Resist This Coup?" variety. Choose Democracy has answers. Here's a really handy guide to the how/what/why of organizing... Share widely. Link here: choosedemocracy.us/what-can-i-do/

In the Soviet Bloc, the Communist Party assigned political minders/ commissars to every school, factory, army unit, etc to ensure ideological compliance and loyalty to the regime. Hiring was based on class background and demonstrated loyalty. Obviously, this is very different.

A growing backlash against national retailers that have started eliminating or rolling back Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs now includes Latino leaders calling for a boycott of those big stores. nbcbay.com/xCYtQ4G

The 8th grader who led this protest and her classmates are patriots and role models for the rest of us. Hegseth’s visit to U.S. base in Germany met with student walkout www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

“Not quite my tempo.”

Shocked

I was told that college speech codes were the very definition of tyranny. But I guess government enforced speech codes for journalists are ok. Makes perfect sense.
