Head Start, an early childhood education program for low income families, is on the chopping block. Growing up, my own mom was an aide with the program; it’s helped countless young mothers, including the one who tells her story here. www.kqed.org/news/1203596...

Save Head Start! Parents, families and Head Start Alumni please let President Trump know how Head Start has influenced your life! #headstartstrong nhsa.org/advocacy/act...

Trump has crippled our ability to get student #loans for higher education. WTAF. The Department of #Education is required by law to offer income-driven repayment plans and #PSLF to borrowers. Trump's policies are an #illegal and #immoral decision to deny borrowers’ their rights under the law.

Education is our kids future. Education is our country’s future. Mr. President, we will see you in court. www.aft.org/press-releas...

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.

@jahimes.bsky.social Al Green is a patriot. Your censure vote is an absolute embarrassment to our state.

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 ✊

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Chris Murphy: "My prediction is that if you vote for Kash Patel, more than any other confirmation vote you make, you will come to regret this one to your grave."

This is fascism.

In the event of cuts, do you expect that states and localities will have to raise taxes to fill the large gaps that former federal funding supported? #QuestionsForLinda

Good morning! Currently weighing the relative likelihood of being sent to the camps when the tech bros go after all the professors vs. societal collapse after money stops working. How's your weekend going?

Anyone who seeks health care in New York should be able to receive it. Our state laws are clear that no one can be discriminated against based on sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation. apnews.com/article/new-...

A time for ‘a look inward’, if ever there was one…👇 Thanks Canada, for a reminder that needs to be said, out loud! Introspection. Defined. ✨

The way we fight for (and against) bathrooms affects the whole panoply of trans issues. If one is a specter, a ghoul incapable of using public space, one is much easier to banish to the margins.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

But her emails…

What you generally don’t want is a government run by ideologues whose only qualification is loyalty to the party leader. Also spreading chaos and anxiety throughout the federal government while giving an unelected billionaire full access to government data and locking out the experts is suboptimal.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Sean Duffy, what's it like when things start getting real?

It is VERY important to note that "contrarian voices" about vaccines & public health have NOT been "left out of the conversation." On the contrary, disproven & simply wrong ideas have become a DOMINANT part of public discourse, influencing public opinion & policy.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.
