Watching town halls and a few members of the press finally fighting back is the only thing giving me hope right now. It took two goddamn long for the press to really put Donald Trump's feet to the fire, but at least they are starting now. Keep going.

This is what a dictator does. This is called a quid pro quo. Imagine him and the tone of voice he used when he talked to Zelinskyy. He is speaking to the governor of a state like this. I literally feel sick to my stomach and super proud of the governor at the same time.

“Why is my information in there?” asked Kathy Gavin, one of millions of people whose data was collected by the gun industry. “Why did you need it or want it? Yes, you could use it to pummel me with postcards, but what else are you doing with it?”

If the military is about the constitution and not following unlawful orders, why is there are no real resistance to this kind of thing?

My friend shared this today. She's a foster mom. Anyone in this country that still believes we try to protect children is blind or stupid or both. What child services needs nationwide is money. The situation will only get worse under abortion bans. www.kob.com/new-mexico/a...

Federal employees, hold off of replying to Elon. My fellow faery smut readers, let’s spam the [email protected] email with 5-point lists of shadow daddy fantasies. #BookSky #BookSmut

no one should comply. not one person. require documentation. he is not the boss of any of these people and has no legal authority to do any of this.

Just listened to AOC on YouTube. She took it upon herself to draft a letter and hand deliver it to the DOL. She met with officials showing their legal obligations to stop doge from taking over the data at 4 p.m. the same afternoon. Doge left empty handed, AOC got a court injuntion to stop doge.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

what the fuck

tonight in “things that definitely happened” … can’t wait to see the canada side of this readout

Krysten Sinema and Joe Manchin fucked us so big time.

So, what happened? No follow up?

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Fuck this. Fuck him. Fuck them. Fuck everything about this. Thank you for coming to my rage talk.

@dangerousones.bsky.social loving this podcast, but don't forget about the LGBTQ+ population and reproductive care. Please 🙏

Grimes is performing at World Pride 2025? No. Absolutely not. C'mon man. She doesn't represent this community. So many other options.

I think it would make a big difference in our health if we banned Pharma ads from America like the rest of the world does.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Please noooo

Doing this right before firing three top military leaders is so deranged. Source at DoD told me, “Disdain for Hegseth is a near-universal feeling even among the Trumpiest in the office.“

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

"I can no longer be a part of what we can all plainly see is happening to our country." Somebody should collect these incredible resignation letters and make them a book. This one is from Nate Brought, resigning as director of the NIH Executive Secretariat. www.linkedin.com/posts/nathan...

I hope the mothers of his children use clips like this to get custody. This man is not safe. I don't really trust any woman that would have a baby with him at this point, much less being in a relationship with him, but still.

The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

OF COURSE he is. We are not even close to the bottom of this filth. www.thedailybeast.com/ice-prosecut...

Hakeem Jeffries turned out to be such a huge disappointment. His support of genocide, a standing ovation for Netanyahu, pictures with right wing leadership in Israel, and now a book tour while the Senate is doing a marathon voting session to try and take away our healthcare. Read the room, bro.

I am losing my shit at people saying Trump is “joking” about a third term. Like folks, he has acted on every one of them

Democrats should never have stopped calling these guys weird couchfuckers

Depraved. This isn't efficient, it's cruel, and designed to incite maximum chaos and inflict pain. kjzz.com/news/local/s...

Please keep your cats inside among all the other things we need to do right now.

It's not fucking legally questionable. It's goddamn illegal. Jesus Christ these media outlets don't meet the moment we are really truly fucked.

THE USPS IS PROTECTED BY THE CONSTITUTION AND THIS IS WILDLY ILLEGAL. Why can't you people report with the urgency that this situation requires??!!

Why am I finding this out on blue sky? People should be screaming about this from every angle. By people I mean Congress and the media.

more of this! yes.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

hey @mattyglesias.bsky.social, the piece that you link to here — my piece — does not say that “all DEI critics want to reimpose segregation” and i would appreciate it if you didn’t lie to your audience about what my work says.

Well, he just did a Nazi salute at CPAC so you might wanna just not agree with either one.
