Call your friends Podcasters! Enough of the commentary! You need to help get ONE MOVEMENT together before the house burns down to rubble. #Resist #50501 #Indivisable #BlueStates #Progressives #Organize

Love it! Hundreds of people from our local Indivisible group took to the streets and protested Trump, Musk and DOGE at a Tesla dealership in Mt Kisco, NY. Rebellion is happening all over - do your homework to find what is happening locally and DO SOMETHING!!!

We refuse to let the oligarchs win and control us, and I feel a sea change (link to full video in reply)

Pope Francis in critical condition after a 'respiratory crisis,' Vatican says www.msn.com/en-us/health...

Strong statement by retired Rear Admiral Mike Smith, President of NSL4A: "National Security Leaders for America strongly condemns the removal of senior military officers without just cause. ... Removing experienced leaders with meritorious records weakens the force and emboldens America’s enemies."

🗃️ Socialist of the Day: Herman Tucker was a machinist from Milwaukee, Wisconsin who served one term as a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly (1923-24). Tucker was born January 19, 1879 in Germany, and received a public and trade school education.

Interesting that “merit = white” with the feds while in Alabama, an appointed official I heard speak late last year spat out “merit employee” in such a way as we all knew he meant “Black state workers.” I guess AL remains mired in its unique moral squalor.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

'Horrible abuses': Former FBI agent sounds the alarm on Kash Patel. www.alternet.org/patel-fbi-fi...

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Anyone else see that Cybertruck stuck in the snow while the Honda Fit drives right past it? Pretty much sums up America vs rest of the world.

More & more headlines like this emerging here in Germany. “Without America?” The tie between the USA & Europe is loosening & it could scarcely be nicer for Putin. What does it mean for Germany & its neighbours?”

Listen to @radiofreetom.bsky.social! "Now that Trump has captured the intelligence services, the Justice Department, and the FBI, the military is the last piece he needs to establish the foundations for authoritarian control of the U.S. government."

Depressing brilliance from my pal Ruben Bolling.

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

32 million users! Together, we can resist and build something extraordinary! 💙 Feel the spark, join the movement! #NotMyPresident

He nails it.

Unbelievable and totally unacceptable

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Nailed it.

US threatens to shut off Starlink if Ukraine doesn’t sign minerals deal. Starlink is essential for Ukraine’s battlefield comms. This is the equivalent of FDR threatening to arm the Nazis if Europe didn’t sign over half its resources. Extortion. And utterly unforgivable. Hell awaits.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

For those at the back…

Robert Reich put out a fantastic 10 point path of what people are doing to stop all this shit It cant be shared here due to limited characters. But people are spending way less & the boycotts are working. Keep it up!

And who they didn't like

When the stupid reveals itself..once again.. We don’t do kings, no matter how hard you try, asshole 🖕🏻 #SheShed

Something odd just happened—an article that had been widely published on media sites has suddenly disappeared without any retraction or explanation. Many may have come across it on Reddit.

200 million dollars of waste.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

The Trump Administration has a strict conflict of interest policy. To serve, you must have a conflict of interest. Ethics = self-interest.

When Rupert Murdoch’s rags turn on you …

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Wise man…

BRAVO to Maine Governor Janet Mills for slapping petty tyrant trump in the face with her calmly defiant "see you in court." THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. 🔥🔥🔥

WaPo Page One: “If you’re going to just yell at me, that’s not going to be an effective town hall,” McCormick said .. “But we’re pissed!” a woman shouted. #GA07 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The 'find out' phase is here.
