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)

Casually bringing this back… #OCanada 🍁

Exactly 💯

Why is the media acting like this is all normal?!

I started following @aoc.bsky.social. I've never been her biggest fan, honestly. (This is a safe space 😉). I disagree with her on many of her platforms. However, she is a very visible and vocal antipode to MTG, Lake, Noem, and others. She is who we need right now at the podium. She deserves support.

The reason the USA is so messed up is because everyone thinks bad things will never happen to them.

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

Minnesota is now South Manitoba. I don't make the rules.

Jasmine Crockett is shredding this solo. But it’s past time for the rhythm section to enter this song already.

This just in: one of our Library Assistants rescued a bumble bee using a library fetching card. He assures us that the bee "had a big nectar breakfast and then buzzed off". Phew! 🐝 This job involves more than cataloguing books, folks!

🚨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!

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.

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the 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.” 🇺🇸

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Luis Rubiales has been found guilty of sexually assaulting Jenni Hermoso by kissing her on the lips after Spain’s women’s team won the World Cup. He has been fined €10,000+. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Crockett: "I support that we should not be voting for this funding bill bc it's gonna gut the things that we care about. And I don't believe that we can enter in good faith negotiations w/ ppl that literally could care less about their word... they have a Trump trifecta. Y'all better figure it out."

Duckworth: "He essentially just surrendered to Putin."

Quite an exchange here between Judge Reyes and DOJ attorney on how "pronoun usage" affects military readiness.

Tomorrow (Wednesday), I’ll be on The View! Tune it at 11am EST to see what we are discussing!

Bernie Sanders: "We're not only dealing with a move toward authoritarianism, we're dealing with what is new to America -- politicians have always lied, nothing new about that. But the level that we're seeing right now. The big lie, over and over again ... "

In South Carolina, tonight: “I have an ectopic pregnancy. It’s on my ovary. They’re making me risk my ovary even though I don’t want to. They refuse to do the surgery.” #ForcedBirthNation Original Post: www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2yCKENt/

That’s how you write a headline, people.

Math is hard

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

Another historical gem I found—probably taken by the same photographer. At first, I thought it was from the 1870s, but the early 1900s seems more likely. #EdinburghHistory #OldScotland #Vintage #oldphoto #edinburgh #HistoricalScotland #archive

In addition to everything else that needs to be dealt with, are the Democrats going to do anything about the planes crashing or are we just gonna ride this additional crisis to the end of the line?

Glacier National Park isn’t just a breathtaking landscape—it’s a living testament to the hard work of federal employees who care for our public lands. From park rangers & forestry crews to dedicated biologists, these individuals ensure that our natural treasures endure for future generations.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Because you are sucking up to the owner of your newspaper?

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.
