Imagine what happens when NOBODY in the fed government responds to Musk's edict. A massive calling of his bluff.

Immediate call for action! While there is still a chance, every call matters.

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

Spotted at Baltimore, Maryland, protest 💙

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

Frederick Douglass once wrote that he did not remember ever meeting an enslaved person “who could tell of his birthday.” He later chose Valentine’s Day to celebrate his birthday, recalling his mother had referred to him as her “Little Valentine.”

Stand with science. Always.

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Elon Musk: I have a wild thought. I must post it. Conscience: Shouldn't you check if it's true? Elon: I'm really rich. It must be true. Experts: It's not true. Elon: Fuck you. You're not rich. MAGA: Elon must be right. He's really rich.

Yes, there will be retribution. But there are things we all must do starting immediately. "It is incumbent on the media, civil society groups, judges and individual citizens to adopt a presumption of skepticism when it is told that a political opponent of Trump is under an ethical or legal cloud."

The world’s poor are starving, food is rotting, and US farmers are left struggling… I don’t even know how to name this sin against humanity. 🤷🏻‍♂️💔 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Hilarious. Scary. Brain-exploding.

We just got to make sure every voter in Maine knows next year that her act of pretending to be a “moderate” independent of Trump and MAGA is a fraud. I intend to do everything in my power to facilitate that, and these kind of posts are extremely helpful.

Elon Musk used all the freedoms and opportunities of the USA, the country that defeated the Nazis, to become the wealthiest human being on earth. So how does he return the favor? He salutes the Nazis, then leads in the destruction of the Country made him. To me- that’s as traitorous as it gets.

If you're not ok with sending a Nigerian prince your personal and private information, why would you be ok with a South African oligarch barging into government offices and stealing it?

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From Clay Bennett)

I've said for a while now that Stephen Miller has the dead eyes of a shark. He has no soul (nor does he wish to.)

It's NOT HIS GOVERNMENT. He has an administration. With limited power. (Or at least he should...) The government is OURS. The American people.

Fork in the Road. They get it. youtu.be/lZ6ax8bBdck?...

I really love the way the new/alternative media & news sources so often uplift and praise one another. They have each other's backs. Their work is so important, given the loss of confidence in MSM. I enjoy the feeling of all being in this together. Well done, folks.

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Cartoon idea: any takers? I'm no illustrator... Satan wheeling a hand truck that holds a stack of packages with "Soul of [fill in senators' names]" printed on the outside, up to the receiving dock at overstockdotcom.

You know, you just can't fix stupid.

Brilliant.

The “free speech defenders,” ladies and gentlemen.

I love the way bird tracks on the snow appear. They have little snowshoe feet.

Day 1 of my non-political musing per day posts: I kinda think that the Boomers born betw 1960-64 need their (our) own designation. It's like they skipped over us and went right on to the GenX'ers. Ideas?

Agreed.

Pass it on please.

"Rapid unscheduled disassembly.". HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHA Hope it doesn't do a rapid unscheduled land-on-somebody's-head.

As @SenatorHagerty & Trump etc talk about conditioning aid to California unless they change, it seems worth pointing out they also rail against the very environmental regulations that may help (on behalf of their Big Oil donors) Maybe they think we’re dumb and won’t notice? 🤷🏻
