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

Thank you to @maddow.msnbc.com for promoting @bsky.app on air and complimenting it. Her on air support is truly important

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

I have long believed that not enough has been written about how GOP members have felt physically intimidated by Trump supporters. It doesn’t excuse their cowardice, but it still deserves more attention.

Elizabeth isn’t hiding. She’s leading from the front:

NEW: The CDC is currently removing all the influenza resources from their website during the worst flu season in decades.

Where you at Dems ? You fighting to get them far better severance or going to ignore them, and all others in similar circumstances?

“I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

after the overturning of roe, black infant mortality has spiked nearly 11% in states with abortion bans: www.reuters.com/world/us/inf...

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

No one HAS to do illegal, corrupt, wrong things, They CHOOSE to. Or not. Bravo to the SDNY and Main Justice Lawyers who are showing America what it is to defend the rule of law. What a contrast to sniveling Rs in Congress.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Yep! Call Governor Hochul and tell her to fire Adams NOW. 1-518-474-8390

Governor Hogal… FIRE ERIC ADAMS!! How long are democrats going to play nice? Bc thats not working at all!!

If we confirm Kash Patel, knowing what we are getting, we will only have ourselves to blame.

this attitude — paperwork is for sissies, real wars are won by Big Strong Men — is traditionally a harbinger of ruinous for defeat for everyone who holds it

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

Thou shalt not spend millions on Super Bowl ads about Jesus when you could’ve used it to feed the hungry.

Hi Bluesky! Glad to be here.

Is there anyone out there that is mapping any delayed or cancelled federal payments ? Would be really interesting to see which towns and cities are going to be hit

Dirk Nowitzki is in LA to support Luka Dončić at his Lakers debut 🥹

SCOOP: Kash Patel took $25,000 from a production company with ties to Russia propaganda activity to appear in an anti-FBI docuseries. He did not respond to questions about this. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who is sick of stupid trumpers cheering every idiotic move made by trump, thinking that it ONLY hurts liberals. You stupid MAGA jackasses, what he does negatively affects AMERICA, and that includes YOUR dumb asses too. Go ahead, ring that bell.

Dear @Doge If there is nothing to hide. Hide nothing

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Anyone else super exhausted

Idk how you could watch games like his last few at age 40 and still not believe that LeBron is the GOAT #NBASky

"Stop the Coup!" Scene at Treasury.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Putin is full out celebrating our idiocy.

Members of Congress going into the US Agency for International Development!

This is the kind of action I’ve been looking for!

Oh look. A President, a Governor, a Mayor - all at the crash site at the Chesapeake Bay with first responders. Not swimming. Showing empathy and leadership.

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days. The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years. ‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades. So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?

To Trump and Hegseth: Go right ahead and demonize the woman soldier who was in the helicopter involved in the mid-air crash. Go ahead. Let your hatred for women show! Kick it 'til it breaks, assholes. Women don't forget. #Feministsky #BadassFeminists

NEW: Elon Musk's team has hijacked massive datasets of government worker DOBs, home addresses, social security numbers, length of service, and performance evals - revoking the access of OPM career officials. www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

How could this not possibly violate a slew of federal laws?

Here is my take on the remarkable events today at DOJ-FBI: 🔗 open.substack.com/pub/weissman... #FBIFirings
