NEW: Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. https://propub.li/43487Tj

When is every federal employee just walking off the job? Fuck this shit. Bring this country to a halt. Like wtf are we even doing? My grandfather fought in WW2 against the nazis. No way in fucking hell I’m just continuing on like shit is normal under this new nazi regime.

BREAKING: Gov. Hochul will NOT remove Mayor Eric Adams. Add another name to the list of Gutless Cowards.

Last night I attended the Save Our Services rally in New York City. Listen to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) fighting for people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” @aoc.bsky.social

This morning, my colleagues and I stood in front of FBI headquarters to make it clear to everyone who wants an FBI focused on violent crime and not on political retribution: Kash Patel would be a disaster as FBI Director.

Amanda Zurawski, one of the Texas women who nearly died due to the states abortion ban, has been named one of Time’s Women of the Year.

Musk’s Ex-Wife Forced to Tweet to Get Attention Over Child’s Medical Crisis: Elon Musk is living a meme – according to him and his description of his life as President Donald Trump’s darling chaotic government cost-cutter and job stealer (How many of those jobs are going to Space X, Grok, and “X”?)…

— 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.

After a heavy content morning, let’s take a fun break and rename the Gulf of America, since it seems anybody can just do that now. How about the Gulf of Golf? Or the Gulf of Federal Resilience? Our fed friends are fighters. Give us your best in the comments! gulfof.mapquest.com?name=WTF+is+...

New Episode of AMERICA UNHINGED at 8pm ET live tonight with me and @franifio.bsky.social. We're talking to @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social about Trump following the fascism textbook and selling out our democracy and allies to make Russia great again. Tune in! www.youtube.com/watch?v=epMY...

Kristi Noemnulls War Against Leaks, Is Leaked: Kristi Noem, the new secretary of homeland security and former governor of South Dakota, threatened to give her employees lie detector tests as her department grapples with leaks.  “DHS is a national security agency,” a department spokesperson told…

In case you were wondering!

Love this guy. He appeared on the Mueller, She Wrote podcast in 2018. Hell of an activist.

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We don’t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we don’t get invited on shows & don’t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Irish broadcaster RTÉ reported that Ireland’s Department of Foreign Affairs has seen a 50 percent increase in the number of Americans seeking Irish passports, with some people specifically citing new administration as a reason https://newrepublic.com/article/191421/trump-emigration-wave-brain-d

Trump now seizing the USPS. The USPS board has retained counsel to fight him. Breaking a 250 year precedent. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Kennedy Postpones the first meeting of CDC Vaccine Advisors meant to review at least 10 vaccines either approved or in development, including vaccines protecting against Lyme disease, RSV, flu, and Covid-19. endpts.com/first-meetin...

President Trump has initiated significant changes at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., by replacing its leadership and appointing his supporters to the board of trustees. Such restructuring efforts typically involve administrative expenses. Likely costing tax payers $13 million.

Just in case no one knows the UK doesn't have a record number of people on benefits, in fact we have higher employment than France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Finland and many more. It's all just a lie for the billionaires to blame poor people for their mess.

Free speech is so important to the fabric of our nation that it is in the very First Amendment. This is the GULF OF MEXICO.

Pulling out the same type of device on a traffic stop that was used to beat police officers on Jan 6 is probably not the best plan.

Kash Patel must NOT be confirmed as Fbi Director.

If you recall the significant deal that Trump made out of Amazon/USPS agreements during his first administration, then you understand how this serves as a means to exert control over Jeff Bezos. I wonder if Jeff is still proud of killing that Washington Post endorsement. ✌️

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Kash Patel. Fucking Kash Patel. 😡

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

An early Daily Fella for you on a historic day when the President of America officially sold out to his russian overlord! What a disgusting POS he is! Zelenskyy is twice the man Trump will ever be! #DailyFella #DailyFellaNews #SlavaUkraini #NAFO

Ukraine’s right to self-determination is fundamental. Every nation deserves to choose its own future, free from aggression. Supporting Ukraine is defending freedom and democracy. #SlavaUkraini
