It is no coincidence that so much of the US is poor, and the rich have gotten so rich. Stop looking down to find someone to blame. Stop looking at your neighbors to find someone to blame. LOOK UP. Inequality is destroying us.

JUST A REMINDER ... ... of how close we are today ...

Welcome to Donald Trump’s America, where First Amendment lawyers find themselves compelled to advise people that they have no First Amendment rights.

If Linda McMahon and the Department of Education believe in "efficiency and accountability" (after laying off half of the department), then I'm sure they'll gladly publish a list of every position that has been eliminated and why that position is no longer needed.

Hey now more than ever it’s important to treat yourself with some positive self talk. The world is loudly cruel and unkind lately, do NOT succumb to the pressure to hate yourself. You are strong. You are kind. You are trying your best. Things will be better. Keep fighting. ❤️

This list of companies openly supported #Project2025 If you can, please, boycott these companies.

#ResistanceRoots #Voices4Victory Tammy Duckworth was born on this day in 1968 in Bangkok. An officer in the U.S. Army Reserve, she lost her right leg and half of her left leg in the Iraq War. She became the first disabled woman in Congress and the second Asian American woman in the Senate. /1

Do NOT assume that senators are done for the night. They and their staff regularly work into the wee hours negotiating the schedule of the official activities. Don't be afraid to keep calling until no one is picking up. Then switch to staff emails. No cloture on the DOGE funding bill.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a drug addict. Take everything he says as though you are listening to a drug addict...because you are.

The level of crudity displayed outside the WH is truly horrifying . How degrading.!

you’re telling me that yet another one of these guys is a degenerate sex criminal? i’m shocked

Walz: "The idea that the secretary of education would not know what IDEA is -- individuals with disability in education act -- that's like your mechanic not knowing how to put air in your tire. And she's in charge of this nation's education progress. It is catastrophic."

Shady AF! Republicans could’ve stopped Trump’s disastrous trade policy & save the economy, but they protected him instead. Trump declared a “economic emergency” to push reckless tariffs. Dems tried to force a vote to end it, so the GOP pulled a stunt to block it: declaring Congress one long day.

Trump wasted a whopping $16 million to deport a mere 40 so-called illegal aliens via Guantanamo Bay before quietly shipping the remaining 250 back to the US. Government efficiency? What a joke. What a waste.

Have the DOGE boys gotten around to cancelling a) a single weapons contract or b) a single Elon Musk contract?

Per @johnleguizamo.bsky.social: “Medicaid is called by different names in different states! Stay awake America you lose everything you rely on!”

I’m sick to death of people saying we’re “descending” into fascism. The fascism is ALREADY here. THIS IS WHAT IF FEELS LIKE. And if you’re not feeling it, it’s probably because you’re one of the “good Germans.” @michaelharriot.bsky.social explains

Frances C. Perkins (1880-1965), was the first woman ever to serve in a presidential cabinet. She served with President F.D. Roosevelt and was the 4th US Secretary of Labor for the Democratic Party. She was a key figure in the creation of the Social Security Act of 1935. #WomensHistoryMonth

Reproductive education. That's how an IUD comes when you go to the doctor's. Yes that box is a foot long.

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Who made this? 🤣

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Gutting the Department of Education will impact everything from internet access to school buses. Let’s not make it harder to learn.

seems like a No then

🥴

I miss him and his VP.

I know this is going to sound naive or earnest, but I genuinely find myself shocked by how little people seem to be upset by the levels of corruption we're seeing. Is that the median voter assumes everyone is corrupt already? Or isn't actually getting stories about the corruption?

Protesters at the New York State Capitol chant "no hate, no fear, immigrants are welcome here" to "border czar" Tom Homan. Love this for him. 🍿

Perhaps the most depressing part about the last couple of months is that every awful shitty thing that’s happening to this country is self-induced. People asked for this. None of it had to happen.

The staff of the Department of Education are being told to clear out their offices by 6:00 PM. The dumbest people alive are cheering for this. 🤦‍♀️

My guardian angel works very hard on my behalf. Thank you Grammy. Thanks for staying back from Nirvana Valhalla Stovokor Elysian fields to watch over me awhile longer.

Go ahead, keep complaining…

President Zelenskyy, The vast majority of Americans are fully sickened to our core by the violence visited upon you every day, with help from our President and his party. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-preside...

Go Canada !

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

That’s how this American feels too!!!👍
