It’s almost National Caregivers Day!! This Friday, join me, @caringacrossgen.bsky.social, and caregivers + care recipients from around the country for a virtual rally. Care connects us all ❤️ go.caringacross.org/a/care-rally...

REP. RASKIN: “We don’t have a 4th branch of government called Elon Musk.” 🇺🇸

😂

Merrick Garland is not to blame for Trump’s return to power. The blame belongs with Mitch McConnell and SCOTUS for failing to serve as a check on abuse of power. My thoughts in The Contrarian.

Activists and insiders are on their final push in attempts to get the outgoing Biden Admin to #FreeLeonardPeltier. [Article from Dec. 27, 2024] unicornriot.ninja/2024/after-b...

Check out the People’s March in Washington D.C. today. Definitely looks like the crowd for the protest will be BIGGER than his inauguration crowd!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽

Hegseth is a DUI hire.

The point isn’t to pat ourselves on the back because we have it better. It’s to remember that if people like Navalny are willing to risk imprisonment, torture, and death to resist an evil empire, there is no excuse for us to back down.

Can’t wait for Jack Smith’s report to come out. “I just want to find 11,780 votes.”

🎉

It only took like a dozen Scaramuccis to go from “fight!” to fealty.

Another step towards unreality. I discuss this in chapters two and four of "On Freedom." www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

This dog was definitely for sale.

"My guess is that if you told the average Trump voter that he employs undocumented workers and has for decades, they’d refuse to believe you. It just doesn’t make sense; how could he so obviously hate immigrants, but also want to exploit them? Of course, it makes perfect sense"

"Musk Hits Back Amid MAGA Infighting, Says ‘Contemptible Fools’ Must Be Purged From The GOP" Elitist Elon is coming for all in MAGA who oppose him making even more money. This is why right and left must unite to end $ in politics and return power to the people! www.mediaite.com/politics/mus...

Elon Musk’s War on Christmas & government shutdown means: 🌽 No disaster relief for farmers 🇺🇲 No paychecks for our troops ✈️ TSA agents working without pay 🍼 Childcare centers closed Musk has ordered Republicans to ruin the holidays for working people. Total Grinch behavior.

Because facts matter…

CHARLAMAGNE: “Is it an alien invasion?” PETE BUTTIGIEG: “No disrespect to New Jersey, I think it’s very unlikely an alien invasion would begin in New Jersey.” 👽 😮

As the oligarchy begins to take shape, this meme seems more prescient than ever. They have convinced you that immigrants are your enemy while they pick your pockets at the same time, you’ve been duped. It’s the billionaires who are ruining this country,not migrants. Always has been. #RiseAndResist

Waking up to a landmark moment for Korean democracy as Yoon Suk Yeol impeached.

So like…

BREAKING NEWS Luigi Mangione’s fellow prison inmates have been heard by news cameras yelling “Free Luigi” and “Luigi’s conditions suck.”

A democracy cannot function properly under threats of violence, where any dissent comes with the risk of physical retaliation. That describes Russia, and not America as we have known it. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/donald-tru...

Actually, sentiment and bias analysis have been around for a while. If we can get the @latimes.com reporters to post their stories on @bsky.app , with the open firehose, any academic or researcher can analyze everything they post. And nothing will ever be as bad as the cuecat!

I don’t know how many times I have used the bathroom with a trans person, because I go to the bathroom TO USE IT, like a normal fucking human being.

Skip the concentration camps Simply don’t share your citizenship/immigration status at the hospital. Thanks @drtonypastor www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYUaX9Mt/

#Stitch @aaronparnas.bsky.social The data is clear-Maternal deaths increase when abortion access is restricted. Dissolving oversight committees doesn't erase these outcomes - it just hides them. We need more transparency, not less, to protect women's lives. #Georgia #BreakingNews

Many of us are echoing @timothysnyder.bsky.social's lesson in On Tyranny, "Do not obey in advance.” A no less vital admonition that deserves attn: STAND OUT “...without that unease, there is no freedom. The moment you set an example, the spell of the status quo is broken, and others will follow."

💙📚 Non-Fiction feature of December is Grief is Love: Living with Loss by Marisa Renee Lee, a powerful book where I found comfort for my grief and learned how to live with it. Do you have book recommendations around grief and loss? armedwithabook.com/grief-is-lov...
