Feb. 28, buy only from small, independent businesses, not massive companies, especially avoiding Amazon, Walmart & Best Buy. Raise awareness of the enormous power of our collective action & set the stage for bigger future actions. #WeHaveThePower

Corporations supporting Pride was always window dressing; when they feel like they don't have to do it anymore, they won't do it anymore

RFK Jr. minimizes a child dying in the measles outbreak in Texas. It's the first measles death in almost 10 years. Vile man.

Trump hides his tax returns but wants to give your tax information to Elon Musk, don’t let him.

I’ve known and worked with @joyannreid.bsky.social for over a decade and it’s been, well, a joy. She’s brilliant and fierce and irreplaceable. One of my favorite nights ever was getting to interview her for this live #WITHPod podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

🚨We have 36 hours 2 block the biggest bill of Trump's term. If 2 Republicans vote NO it fails. 1 Republican is already saying they will vote no. WE NEED MORE Suggested script: "I am calling to urge the Representative to vote NO on any budget that includes cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, or SNAP." CALL ⬇️

From a guy who used to work there: Rachel is a remarkable person and the best TV news talent there is. If she says something is fucked up, it is. Getting rid of Joy, who dared to see through this fascism bullshit years ago and had the gall of occasionally being funny about it, is dumb.

The settlement here will not be for a trivial amount

Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

This is the way.

What she said.

This hits hard… “Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.” You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.

THEY'RE GOING TO ISSUE PERMANENT VISA BANS TO TRANS VISITORS TO THE US. This isn't just for athletes. The directive as stated applies to all visa applications made by trans folks and declare it material fraud to use a different gender marker on applications. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Remember when the WH insisted that global HIV prevention & treatment was exempt from the freeze? When it seemed MAYBE they understood that cutting off medicine could put the entire planet at risk of drug resistant HIV strains? Wrong. Elon Musk’s interns were simply shutting payments off manually.

Awful news --> Delivery of therapeutic food assistance to nearly 400,000 severely malnourished kids abroad is suddenly in doubt due to Trump-Musk firings at USAID, two manufacturers of the product tell me. "Starving children are waiting," one says. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/1919...

Cancelling @joyannreid.bsky.social means the door she held open for the next generation of Black voices will slam shut. Without her, the next her, won't get platformed by white media. That, of course, is why white media pushed her out. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

“…appeared to ‘cross the line’ into ‘nullification of congressional will.’" And so it begins.

We dare Mike Johnson to give that answer at a town hall in front of his constituents

Cutting Medicaid funding means innocent people will die. Republicans RIGHT NOW are scheming to take away healthcare from millions of Americans including children, the disabled and the elderly, all to pay for tax cuts for corporations and the rich. Call your Representatives TODAY: 202-224-3121

🚨MUST READ POST🚨 Tomorrow SCOTUS will hear this case ANOTHER WAY TO GUT DIVERSITY EQUITY AND INCLUSION Floodgates will swing wide open Here it goes She is just a pawn for WHITE ONLY STRAIGHT MALES Thank you @zen4ever2us.bsky.social posting THIS NEEDS NATIONAL ATTENTION ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Tesla isn’t going to survive. Sales are down nearly 50% in Europe. Keep the boycott going. Your protests are working. #3E #endoligarchy #boycotttesla

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

If we were in normal times, people would think it was crazy to do this too your own voters, but we are NOT in normal times. Trump doesn’t care about sticking it to his voters, because he no longer needs their votes. He doesn’t plan on there being another presidential election. Mark my words…

UPDATE: The charges against her have been dropped “in the interest of justice” (she bit one of the brownshirts that assaulted her) and the private security firm has lost their license to operate. I hope she sues them into oblivion.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid. So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

BIG: DC Metro Police decided they had sufficient evidence to arrest sitting GOP Congressman and sent warrant request to USATTY's office. Acting USATTY Martin, who's been explicitly acting as Trump's personal attorney, ignored it. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/big-b...

(Guardian) - Sales of new Tesla cars almost halved in Europe last month, .. down 45% .. indicating waning demand for the US carmaker’s vehicles .. “.. Tesla’s share of the market dropped to 1% from 1.8%.” $TSLA www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

To all those watching from outside the United States: What’s happening here isn’t as bad as you think it is. It’s worse. Far, far worse.

The Eagles will snub the White House visit. Go Birds 🦅

You may as well accept that there will be an attempt to commit violence on dissenters. Let them face numbers that will cause international outcry when they do it

This reminds me of a scene that is in a short story I wrote last year on @wrath-bearing-tree.bsky.social — "Checkpoint," in which a far right paramilitary drags a Democratic state legislator from her car. It is horrifying and the details point to a clear abuse of power and contempt for local law

This is informative. Thanks

The @principlesfirst.bsky.social conference was just evacuated due to a bomb threat. This is after Enrique Tarrio and members of the Proud Boys showed up and tried to disrupt the conference yesterday.

Public shaming is one of our most effective tools right now. Make this HARD for them. Make it uncomfortable and costly for anyone going along with the Project 2025 agenda. Thanks to these women for speaking out. This took courage. 💪🏼❤️ Protect our schools. #MOMsky

🧵 Apple shareholders will vote tomorrow on anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco. Apple board members have urged shareholders to vote down the anti-DEI proposal. Costco shareholders voted 98-2 percent to uphold DEI. Look for same at Apple. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

“A video shared by Tarrio on social media on Saturday showed him following the officers, Michael Fanone, Harry Dunn and Aquilino Gonell, through … a Washington hotel that was hosting the Principles First summit, a conference where one of the officers received a ‘profile in courage’ award.”

wrote a long piece about how fascists justify cruelty. It works a lot like John Wick or James Bond; you create a story about evil bad guys who deserve whatever happens to them. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/the-righte...
