📌THIS is what America is SUPPOSED to be about. Thank you, Senator Van Hollen. Fuck you, Donald Trump.

Six hours ago, Sen. Chris Van Hollen boarded a flight to El Salvador, putting his safety on the line to demand justice for Kilmar Abrego Garcia. This is what leadership looks like. He’s meeting with officials, hoping to see Kilmar, & sending a message loud & clear: we won’t stop until he’s home.

Nicole Micheron, an immigration attorney in MA, received a notice from the Department of Homeland Security telling her she has to leave the U.S. in 7 days. But she’s a U.S. citizen. They’re coming after anyone who disagrees w/ them. DO NOT OBEY IN ADVANCE.

It's illegal.

The point is to arrest so many people you begin to lose track of them, and to normalize it for when they start arresting journalists, dissidents, and political opposition

Sort of like his boss is breaking democracy.

Please make this stop Headlines getting it wrong: Supreme Court ruled Trump administration must facilitate Maryland man's return Actual SCOTUS (much stronger) ruling: Trump administration must "facilitate Abrego Garcia's release from custody in El Salvador" Mistake persists in reporting today.

These two posts: * “We need to treat antifa and BLM like terrorist organizations,” said Joe Kent, Trump’s pick to lead counter-terrorism efforts. * Trump to Bukele (president of El Salvador): “Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It’s not big enough.” 1/

🔥 OBAMA: “IMAGINE IF I HAD DONE ANY OF THIS… I say this not on a partisan basis. This has to do with something more precious — who are we as a country, and what values do we stand for?” 🇺🇸

3yo Tymofiy 7yo Radyslav 7yo Arina 9yo Herman 15yo Danylo 15yo Mykyta 15yo Alina 16yo Kostiantyn 17yo Nikita President Zelenskyi published the names of kids, innocent victims of the russian terror attack against Kryvyi Rih residential district yesterday. Never forgive. Never forget.

HE DID IT. #FightLikeCory

there aren't any words for how much I hate the people doing this. I wish every harm upon them, it is right and just to pray for such harm

Replace Chuck Schumer with Cory Booker. That’s it. That’s the skeet.

I just tuned into the Booker live feed and after 22 hours he's speaking rapidly, passionately, furiously, and completely coherently. By the way, last week, in impromptu remarks, Trump could not remember the word "criminal" and had to say "people of crime."

Please call @booker.senate.gov and THANK HIM! (202) 224-3224

If Trump can run for a third term, so can Barrack Obama...and Obama would just be 67 years old. Great-Granddad Trump, will be 82. Be careful what you ask for...Donald. 😘

*mic drop*

As an aspiring writer… this is exactly how I feel about AI…

Happy birthday to @repjasmine.bsky.social Thank you for continuing to fight for all Americans and for speaking truth to power. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasitsEyesOnYou

So the government is basically being run by mean girls communicating war plans via an unsecured text platform? #ButHerEmails

In a 1976 article about Puritan funerals, Louise Thatcher Ulrich wrote "well-behaved women seldom make history" to describe well-behaved women that were not studied by historians but the phrase was taken out of context then widely quoted in pop culture. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

It's March 23 and I feel like celebrating the phenomenal woman that has won 23 major women's singles titles in tennis: Serena Jameka Williams. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

Pocahontas, whose real name was Matoaka, died in Gravesend, Kent, England, in 1617. She was buried in St. George's Church on 3/21/1617; however, the original church was destroyed by fire in 1727 & location of her grave was lost. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

Attended a sip and paint and, well, tell me you work in deathcare without telling me you work in deathcare. 🤣🤣🤣

Harriet Beecher Stowe, a staunch abolitionist & prolific author from a prominent political family, released "Uncle Tom's Cabin" in 1852. In this novel, she sought to depict the deplorable & cruel conditions experienced by enslaved African Americans. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItEyesOnYou

If only there had been warnings about Trump’s erratic, frightening, irrational and dictator tendencies. If only there was a 900 page manual that he is following to the “t.” If only there was a previous presidency to look at as an example.

Both Marie Curie and her daughter Irène Joliot-Curie won Nobel Prizes. Marie also invented a mobile x-ray ambulance (“Little Curies”). Some 150 women, including Irène were trained to operate them. www.smithsonianmag.com/history/how-... #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

Saint Brigid of Ireland (c. 451 – c. 525) is the mother saint of Ireland & one of its 3 national saints. Her feast day is actually held on 2/1 but she is said she to have turned water into beer. Sláinte! www.catholic.org/saints/saint... #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

The red handprint has become a visual reminder of missing & murdered indigenous women. Native Women's Assoc. of Canada, Families of Sisters in Spirit, & No More Silence fight to keep these women & girls seen. www.niwrc.org/policy-cente... #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

BREAKING: Trump and Republicans say they’ll focus their efforts on defeating Native American candidate Deb Haaland, who is running for governor of New Mexico. She has protected sacred lands and stood up to bullies. It’s obvious why they want her to lose.

Born on March 15, 1933, may her name be forever etched in the book of life. Rest in power Joann Ruth Bader Ginsburg aka the "Notorious R.B.G.", the second ever female Supreme Court Justice. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

YOU are not productive, sir. Get the Chuck outta here.

Today, five years after her unnecessary killing by police officers, we remember and #SayHerName: Breonna Taylor. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

As a death care professional and licensed director, I appreciate the day on the calendar when I get to recognize all the other amazing peeps in this profession. #HappyFuneralDirectorAndMorticianAppreciationDay

On this day in 1959, Barbie made her debut. Greta Gerwig & Noah Baumbach wrote an incredible speech for their 2023 "Barbie" movie and everyone should read it, or better yet, look up America Ferrera 's performance of it. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItEyesOnYou

Welp.

@aoc.bsky.social: "Listen, if your representative is not doing a town hall, give me a ring... I'll say it right here, right now: if a deep red Republican district wants to have an honest conversation, even if it's with someone they disagree with, I'm willing to do that."

International Women's Day gives focus to issues such as gender equality, reproductive rights, and violence against women. It owes its founding to Theresa Malkiel, a Jewish immigrant, labor activist, suffragist, & socialist. jwa.org/encyclopedia... #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou

Today we celebrate the 27th birthday of Amanda S. Gorman, an American poet, activist, & the 1st National Youth Poet Laureate. She rose to fame in 2021 for writing and delivering her poem "The Hill We Climb" at the inauguration of President Biden. #WomensHistoryMonth #HistoryHasItsEyesOnYou
