So many men are so bad at receiving criticism that I think we should all pitch in to help build up their tolerance.

This is a very important point. Breathlessly vague headlines and summaries of these executive orders created for the executive powers it does not have. This kind of press contributed to authoritarian regime change.

President Trump's new executive order ends collective bargaining for wide swaths of federal employees, as part of his broader campaign to reshape the government's workforce. Unions are vowing to sue.

a cage full of shaved men in bunks stacked up to the ceiling is the modern day death camp. they are invoking the cruelty, the sadism, the AESTHETICS of Nazism and turning it against young Latino men. it is disgusting and it offends me in my deepest self.

Stacey Plaskett: "In December of 2023, many people made Secretary Lloyd Austin go through the stages of the cross in self-flagellation and mea culpas for not informing the president that he was having a surgery, and now how we are treating Secretary Hegseth as if he is untouchable." Spot on!

They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.

I'm not saying anything novel here but it really is just truly despicable to watch them use THEIR OWN COLOSSAL SCREW UP to slander the reporter THEY INCLUDED ON THEIR CLASSIFIED GROUP CHAT

it is BUCK WILD that they are just texting this shit to each other

After the Atlantic published the texts this morning, Tulsi Gabbard is confronted today on why she lied in her testimony to the Senate yesterday. She says she misremembered.

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

Here's Marco Rubio scolding Hillary about her email server, 10 years before texting Atlantic's EIC war plans on a disappearing Signal list. www.youtube.com/watch?featur...

“The reason I knew this is that Pete Hegseth, the secretary of defense, had texted me the war plan at 11:44 a.m. The plan included precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing.” www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Prayer. Emojis.

I'm on vacation so I'll write about this more when I'm back, but I had to say something: I truly cannot believe that the NYT published this investigation into Planned Parenthood as it is, using the kind of shocking anti-abortion rhetoric I'd expect to see in the Daily Caller

It’s my birthday today. I shared it with people I love and ignored the news ❤️ it reminded me to focus my attention where it can actually make a difference.

attempting to describe the vibes of the moment. have yet to do better than: "imagine watching a documentary reenacting the burning of the Library of Alexandria set to the soundtrack of 'Yakety Sax'"

When my grandparents' grandparents were born, it was illegal for them to learn to read and write. I think about that at least once a week as their descendant who studies literacy for a living.

Yes, everyone is correct. They're not advocating for a "strict meritocracy." Affirmative action is over. They're now suing over the very presence of Black people and Latinos in elite education and white collar careers. They're advocating for resegregation. Call it out every time.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

By illegally neutering the National Labor Relations Board, Trump has enabled Jeff Bezos to ignore the union victory at Whole Foods in Philadelphia. Trump has given the green light to corporations to violate labor law with impunity. Unacceptable. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Senator Schiff (as Dems filibuster the nomination of Project 2025 author Russ Vought): “The moment you say it’s ok to violate the law to shut down USAID you have said it is ok to violate the law and shut down anything.”

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

"Stop the Coup!" Scene at Treasury.

DJT is going to the Super Bowl. This is a great time for Kendrick Lamar to shine and drop a really awesome diss track and it would be amazing if he brought out Dre to sing Arrest the President.

Crowd keeps growing outside Treasury as Members who were DENIED entry speak

Rep. LaMonica McIver: "We are at war!"
