The blatantly racist billionaires in the Trump admin and project 2025 want to try to erase the parts of American history that don’t fit into their false narratives. They are trying to reverse generations of progress in a pathetic attempt to hold onto power. And it’s not the first time.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

Why do I live here?!🥶

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Jasmine is on FIRE 🔥 🔥🔥 "...we are going to be in your face, we are going to be on your asses, and we are going to make sure you understand what democracy looks like... ...and this ain't it!"

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Joy Reid: "You can't purchase adoration." The streets of Washington DC are DESERTED for trump.

The oligarchs cling to MLK’s “I Have a Dream” speech—because dreams aren’t a threat. They hide this—we will have to pay the bill while they keep TAKING and distracting us with HATE for each other so that we won’t notice. They don’t want you to know about Martin Luther King’s “One Penny” speech…

"[Elon] knows those computers better than anybody. Those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. IS THAT A FUCKING CONFESSION??? h/t: @acyn.bsky.social

It’s NFL Sunday and every football fan knows you can’t claim record turnout when there are empty seats.

On this eve of our MLK Jr holiday. We are all on edge. I have this feeling like we are at the end of democracy and my rights will disappear. I urge you all to not give up, that’s the easy way and it will end democracy. MLK Jr said it best but we have to help bend it further towards justice.

We got this y'all. It won't be easy, joyful or fun... But it's worth it. I'll always stand on the side of Democracy and anyone that believes in it! Love most of y'all. Here we go!

Trump previously tried to ban Tik Tok himself with an executive order, but it was overturned by the courts.

Ok #booksky, let’s talk. 👎🏼Goodreads, owned by Amazon, fuels its monopoly on books. 👍🏼StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform, offers an ethical, ad-free alternative with mood-based recommendations, user control over data, and a focus on inclusivity. Support diversity over corporate power!

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.? In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

Less than 2 years ago. Trump bragging that he tried to ban TikTok 3 years before but Democrats stopped him.

To all of those who have asked, I will not be acknowledging the Inauguration on January 20th.

People making a big deal out of Michelle Obama not attending Donald Trump's inauguration seemed not to mind when an outgoing president, Donald Trump, refused to attend the inauguration of the incoming president, Joe Biden, thereby undermining the ceremonial transfer of power between presidents.

While we’re banning books… Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar. Be. Like. Finland.

Instead find a channel NOT connected to the inauguration or social media and leave it on that all day. Science programs or history or food. Give the ratings to them.

Jessica: You are telling me that in the last year where we have gotten out over 700,000 people which is the most that we have deported since the year 2010, record seizures of drugs that are supposed to be coming across the border, that this is a wide open border?

🚨 BREAKING: Thanks to President Joe Biden, starting today, Medicare beneficiaries will have their annual out-of-pocket drug costs capped at $2,000 under the Inflation Reduction Act. That's a BFD, folks!

It's it odd that women's rights vary state-by-state, whereas men's rights are the same throughout the country? It's *almost* as if men are given preferential treatment.

I can’t think of a better way to honor Jimmy Carter than donating to Habitat for Humanity. He and Rosalynn first began volunteering with the nonprofit in 1984 — 3 years after leaving the White House. They volunteered every year until 2020, eventually helping to build and repair 4,390 Habitat homes.

You’ll be visited by three spirits.

Well done RollingStone for reporting it accurately.

I have no doubt that Donald Trump knew about details outlined in the report, but he picked Gaetz to be the next Attorney General anyway. It’s an enormous scandal, and the corporate media needs to start acting like it. After the holidays, we’ll make sure this gets the spotlight it deserves.

Congratulations to Mike Johnson for trying to pressure the House Ethics Committee into burying a report that found the then-nominee for attorney general had engaged in sexual activity with a minor. Party of Family Values, am I right?
