The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

On this 1st day of #BlackHistoryMonth, let’s honor & remember all Black service members, from the Harlem Hellfighters of WWI, to the Tuskegee Airmen & the "6888th women" of WWII, & all those who fought and served before and after them.

Having served with many career civil and foreign service employees, I am comfortable stating with conviction that these dedicated, non-partisan public servants are the essential backbone of our society. What Trump is doing is a gift to our adversaries and catastrophic to a functioning government.

Despite the fact that Tesla is valued at over $1.2 trillion and is owned by the richest man in the world, Tesla paid a 0 percent federal income tax rate last year, even as the company reported $2.3 billion in income.

This is devastating. The outcome of this will make this tragic plane crash seem like a lower order catastrophe.

Talk about impoundment! This is basically saying "We refuse to spend roughly 30% of the entire federal budget as Congress required."

"Our courts, and the country, deserve demographically and professionally diverse judges committed to equal justice. [Senate Democrats] must thus use every tool at their disposal to oppose each and every [Trump] nominee who doesn’t meet that standard."

Trump does not CARE if it's illegal. Neither do Republicans. Neither does the Supreme Court. Neither does his MOB.

Trump has just cut off aid to Ukraine and the rest of our allies. This does grave damage to our international alliances and greatly increases the likelihood of a broader invasion of Europe by Russia and an invasion of Taiwan by China. newrepublic.com/post/190690/...

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic. (posting in 3 parts due to Bluesky's 1 minute limit)

Minutes after Trump swore to defend the Constitution, he defiled it with lies and threats to ignore it and other laws. Here's a short takeaway I recorded minutes after he spoke so that you don't have to watch it all. The hat next him is saying I don't want to see any of this. youtu.be/hv0AWixPQx8

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

A jury of 12 of his peers who heard all of the evidence and had the opportunity to hear his lawyers argue against it unanimously agreed that he was guilty. Prosecutors can't make that happen, nor can judges. That's our criminal justice system in action. The jurors found Trump guilty.

After the first election of Trump I conducted a yearlong ethnographic study of Trump supporters. I wanted to understand how they see the world and how information systems shaped their understanding of truth. I walked away with seven core findings

The popular traditional Christmas song "Carol of the Bells" is a Ukrainian New Year's song "Shchedryk" (bountiful). The music for the carol comes from the song written by the Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych in 1914. It tells the story of a swallow who predicts a bountiful new year. Slava 🇺🇦
