Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Money and markets, y'all. It's your superpower.

Solutions please? Someone point me to Bluesky accounts that offer something other than outrage. #resistance

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

On Tuesday, Donald Trump declared that the two million Palestinians in Gaza should be forced out of the Strip. Even if it isn’t more than a provocation, there will be a price for his madness, David Remnick writes. nyer.cm/dqPZx34

Donald Trump has signed another executive order aimed at the transgender community, this time it aims end federal funding or support for gender-transition care for people under the age of 19. It is set to face legal challenges.

The Big Four firm has published a report with recommendations on how to boost DEI strategies, as Trump calls for the private sector to ditch them.

Shown is Missouri Congressman Eric Burlison spending tax payer money to meet and greet the oligarchs. Eric hasn’t passed even one of his bills in his time in congress, but he has kissed a lot of ass.

Thank you @llblue.bsky.social for including me! Honored to be in this awesome pack.

💥 NEWS: #Apple board joins Costco and at least 7 other corporate boards, telling right-wing nonprofit NO to #DEI roll back proposal. Apple board unanimously rejects proposal, just as boards of Costco, Coca-Cola and PepsiCo and others have done. #CorpGov www.theverge.com/2025/1/10/24...

"it's an election-interference case, not a 'hush money' case, motherfuckers," she muttered, pouring her coffee

“Please stop reading grandma, Im hungry”

The devastation in California is apocalyptic. The images are heartbreaking. At least 5 fires continue to burn without containment. I’m grateful for the bravery of not only the first responders, but every day people who have been helping others, including animals, evacuate to safer locations.

I’m in!

So long as you grow to be someone who would’ve protected you as a child. That’s what matters.

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer. These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP. You can follow his remarkable reporting here👇 www.instagram.com/ethanswopeph...

FACT: Medical debt is the largest source of debt in collection in the U.S., and it’s more likely to be held by women, people with disabilities and Black Americans. And if we had universal healthcare, like every other industrialized nation, this would not even be an issue. More: bit.ly/4j4Ibg1

The new federal rule will block credit agencies from including medical debt on credit reports. This was championed by VP Kamala Harris. Huge news!

CARTOONS OF THE DAY 🫤 (Cartoonists are rallying around @anntelnaes.bsky.social as she leaves the @washingtonpost.com )

Today would be a great day for Jack Smith to drop the Jan 6 report detailing the crimes against America—committed by the criminal that’s about to occupy the Oval Office. #NeverForget #January6th

My statement on the January 6, 2021 Violent Insurrection:

This stream of Kash Patel’s baseless conspiracy theories about FBI on Jan 6 should disqualify him from leading the agency. Thanks to @normeisen.bsky.social and @tomjoscelyn.bsky.social for their work to compile it. open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

CAPITOL OFFICER: “Many members would not be here without our actions — Some are now defending the January 6th rioters and calling on Trump to pardon them… inviting rioters to Trump’s inauguration. This infuriates me. It is dishonorable.” www.thebulwark.com/p/january-6t...

I don't even have anything insightful to say today. I still can't believe he won after his actions 4 years ago today.

We don’t forget. This is what January 6th is:

Thank you Eugene Goodman for saving our Democracy during the Capitol insurrection #January6th

"In Iraq, I had the expectation that at any moment I could be killed by the enemy. But on January 6th, that feeling was constant. It was the longest day of my life, with more than forty people assaulting me." U.S. Capitol Police Sgt. Aquilino Gonell tells his January 6 story:

Appreciation post for Rosalynn Carter and Jimmy Carter. 💙🙏

I have been included on a few starter packs so I thought I should re-introduce myself: My name is Jess and I am a former teacher and nominee for Missouri State House. I am a longtime rural activist. I am now the Executive Director of Blue Missouri. We crowdfund for down ballot Dems. bluemissouri.org

one thing about the fifth anniversary of the Covid-19 pandemic I expect very little coverage about is the amount of anti-Asian hate it spawned and the mental and physical toll of that on Asians and Asian Americans

And, what have we learned?👇 Apparently, nothing.
