Just registered for a MN protest! Make it happen!

It’s important that people from all walks of life and background, and all rational political perspectives, show unity in support of democracy and the rule of law on April 5, somewhere near you. Show your love for your country and for what it should—must—stand for: handsoff2025.com/

I think there is going to be a Red Rural Recession and soon if all the cuts continue as is All the firings, cancelling of grants and contracts with companies , the closing of offices, disproportionately impact small towns, cities and states. Their finances will be turned upside

Wisconsin, you know what NOT to do.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Based on the replies l, it looks like there a lot of fed workers on @bsky.app I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I can't imagine the shit you are going through right now Thanks for your service to our country

HOLY SHIT, DEMS FLIPPED A PENNSYLVANIA DISTRICT TONIGHT THAT THE GOP HELD FOR 46 YEARS!!!!! WELL DONE, JAMES MALONE! SUCK IT, MAGA BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!🖕🖕

Meiselas: Steve Witkoff, was allegedly in Moscow while he was on this group chat. Do you believe the Russians now have all of that information and potentially more? Rice: Well, yes—the Russians have whatever Witkoff was doing or saying on his personal cell phone. The Russians undoubtedly have it.

Right now, there’s an important race happening that will shape the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the next 10 years. Judge Susan Crawford is ready to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all Wisconsinites. Make a plan to vote early today — don’t wait until April 1st: wisdems.org/vote

Sh_t! How’s that for tipping the scales to create the results you want even if people get hurt.

THIS should terrify everyone. Trump wants to steal the right to vote from all non-white bodied Americans, and further rig our system to help billionaires stay in power, and keep struggling Americans struggling. Trump Order Could Disenfranchise Millions of Voters democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This isn't how gov't is supposed to work: The acting commissioner of Social Security admitted “I was ticked at the governor of Maine for not being real cordial to the president,” so I ended a program in Maine. www.pressherald.com/2025/03/25/s...

So I put a quick timeline on the insane Signal classified chat and sure enough it looks like Kremlin asset Witkoff was in Moscow when he was added to the Houthi chat. I checked Russian media and he left 3/14 Friday morning (Moscow time) meanwhile the chat was set up Thursday

23andMe is going under. Californians have the right to delete their genetic data before it's turned over to next party buying the assets. If you have a 23andMe account, go log in to download whatever reports you want to save, then follow these instructions to delete your data.

I would like to nominate Maxwell Smart for national security advisor.

If Putin said this NATO would be on alert

Crawford: He’s talked about begging on his knees for campaign contributions, wearing out his knee pads. He wants to be there to support Elon Musk… And that’s really not what the court’s for. And I’ve said over and over—I want to be on the court to protect the people of Wisconsin…

Detainees died due to starvation or dehydration. ICE murdered them.

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING & VILE! WE WILL NOT LET YOU TAKE OUR MONEY, OUR SOCIAL SECURITY. WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE LIKE ME WITH DISABILITIES? MILLIONS WILL CALL UP AND COMPLAIN. CALL ME A FRAUDSTER TO MY FACE!🤬

#Wisconsin April 1st! Please elect Judge Susan Crawford. Do NOT sit this out. If we’ve learned anything from 2024, it’s that we need judges with integrity that follow the law! Elect Susan Crawford to the Wisconsin Supreme Court! #ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue

Quite a fun moment when the security contractors who had been terminated by the USIP but had switched their allegiances to DOGE entered the property with an unconfiscated key and headed immediately to the gun safe.

Important.

🚨 IMPORTANT: In-person absentee voting starts TOMORROW here in Wisconsin. Election Day is April 1. 🚨 The balance of power in our Supreme Court is at stake. 🚨The despicable Elon Musk and his anti-American Orcs are trying to buy our Court here. 🚨 DO NOT LET THEM. 🚨 Support Judge Susan Crawford!

There are approximately 1100 dogs that work for the TSA. Trump has given the order to cut funding for their food & veterinary care! What kind of monster would do that? Where are the Republican voices pushing back on this? 🦗🦗🦗 #RepublicanDogKillers

Doctors and researchers don’t just appear overnight. They study, work and do research for about 6-8 yrs. We are creating a desert of qualified talent who could have filled future vacancies and made new breakthroughs.

This is why you don’t cave!!!!!!!! NOW IS THE TIME TO FIGHT!

Robert Morris, the former Texas megachurch pastor and Trump spiritual adviser, has been indicted on child sex crimes. "After almost 43 years, the law has finally caught up with Robert Morris for the horrific crimes he committed against me as a child," his alleged victim told me.

Musk added another $2 million—he's now up to $10.2 million in spending to put his bought-and-paid-for MAGA candidate, Brad Schimel, into the decisive seat on Wisconsin's Supreme Court. There's a reason his names aren't on the ads. Voters *loathe* Musk. Help us get the word out: peoplevmusk.org

Gutting the Department of Education will impact everything from internet access to school buses. Let’s not make it harder to learn.

Donald. Fucking. Trump.

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

President Trump and Republicans want to eliminate the Department of Education, cut funding for public education, and sell out Wisconsin’s kids and our schools—all so they can help pay for tax breaks to rich millionaires and billionaires.   I call bullshit.

DAILY REMINDER: Social Security is OUR money! kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

After a lifetime of work, employees, deserve to retire w/ dignity. Social Security is a bedrock foundation for working people's retirement security, but Musk is spreading blatant lies about waste & fraud to give tax breaks to billionaires. apnews.com/article/elon...

The Agriculture Department has axed two programs that gave schools and food banks money to buy food from nearby farms and ranchers. Roughly $660 million that schools and child care facilities were counting on to purchase food has been canceled. This will hurt both kids and small, local farmers.

WOW. Read this entire affidavit.

Citizens United, which allowed unlimited corporate, interest-group, and individual spending on elections, did trigger dire predictions from plenty of doomsayers. But even the most pessimistic among them fell short of imagining American reality today.

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

Hey, Siri: show me the least shocking thing I will read today… www.friendlyatheist.com/p/right-wing...

WE GOT THIS! Starts NOW - through the 14th. Don’t touch Amazon or anything Jeff Bezos owns.

In Minnesota, we value the people who care for our veterans, even if DOGE doesn’t. If Trump fired you, come work for the State of Minnesota and help take care of our vets.

Holy shit! In plain sight…

After firing federal workers at the CDC, some 180 of them have received emails begging them to come back to work. "Read this e-mail immediately" was the subject line according to the AP. So much government efficiency going on. What a joke.
