If you didn’t see #KamalaHarris’ brief speech at the #NAACPImageAwards, do yourself and your country a solid, go find the clip and get your mind right. #MyPresident

We should send newly confirmed expert, RFK Jr. to Wuhan so he can expose himself to this new virus and let us know if everything is ok. If he looks good after a few months they can send him back home! 😜 I’m sure he wouldn’t want to endanger anyone with vaccines! www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

Welcome home Leonard.

U.S. doctors looking to move to Canada 🇨🇦 - Ontario’s College of Physicians and Surgeons has issued this reminder that additional exams and training not required if you are a board certified physician. Nova Scotia has similar program. dialogue.cpso.on.ca/articles/rem...

JFC whatever happened to Toronto's reputation of being "Toronto The Good"? This guy has only been trying for YEARS get homeless people out of tents, and has tried to work with the city. And what about the homeless people's "right to use and access city parks"? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Doing great 👍

What is it about watching a 4-year-old tell a 78-year-old with the maturity of a 2-year-old to "shut up and go away" that is SO deeply satisfying?

Integrity is doing what's right, even if it's hard, and even when you stand to gain nothing from it.

Republican senators sold out national security to kiss Trump's ass.

Proud to be one of the 350 rabbis signing this statement — an ad in the NYT today and a declaration of our values. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... For more—and to sign— go to saynotoethniccleansing.org

Thousands of investors in Trump’s crypto scheme lost $2 billion in just weeks while the Trump Organization racked up $100 million in trading fees. Just so happens that the CFPB, which Trump is trying to kill, recently announced new regulations for the crypto industry. Hello?

I think we’ve come up with the name…

Today I’d like to honor unsung heroes whose courage in the face of the Trump takeover of America deserves our profound thanks. They are public servants who have chosen to fight rather than submit to Trump’s treachery. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/profiles-in-courage

DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY SCIENCE: 1. Chickenpox 2. Diphtheria 3. Measles 4. Pertussis 5. Pneumococcal Infection 6. Polio 7. Tetanus 8. Typhoid 9. Yellow Fever 10. Smallpox DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY RFK JR. OR PRAYER: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

"The best and the worst thing about vaccination is that it 'makes nothing happen.' A child successfully inoculated against measles doesn’t fall sick with that condition, doesn’t miss school, doesn’t go to the hospital. They don’t suffer life-changing complications. They don’t die prematurely."

"That is why Elon’s commission looks, sounds, and smells like a sham. Because thus far, the biggest beneficiaries aren’t working class Americans, but rather Elon Musk himself. You don’t get credit for rooting out abuse if your execution raises more questions than it answers."

If you’re wondering if you’re in a constitutional crisis and that the republic could collapse at any moment, you are.

Let Denmark cook.

Trump is doing everything Putin wants him to do: abandoning our nation’s core values, attacking longtime allies, and picking Tulsi Gabbard for a critical national intelligence role. Putin has us right where he wants us, with his puppet as our President. America first? youtu.be/iPXXFfXk5aM

Exactly

@marcelias.bsky.social: "There is a reason why Trump nominated Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, Pete Hegseth. He wants to humiliate these Republicans, because he knows that once they have voted for these folks, he will own them. They will not have a shred of dignity or standing left."

Make no mistake: Trump’s first week was a catastrophe for many vulnerable people. But the biggest story was his startling initial moves from democracy to oligarchy. My hope lies in Americans noticing this. robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-fir...

Amazon workers in Quebec unionized last year. This week, Amazon closed its warehouse operations in Quebec. Amazon denied the closures were related to unionization, but it has a track record of crushing unions in America. Union busting is disgusting — and a global problem.

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway. And those who warned America about it were right.

Abuse of indigenous continues in Canada. Profit over people and environment, right Premier Danielle Smith?

Four years after the storming of the Capitol, one thing is clear: Donald Trump faced absolutely no accountability for inciting an insurrection.

Poverty is a policy choice. Mass incarceration is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. Insulin rationing is a policy choice. Climate disintegration is a policy choice. Billionaire tax loopholes are a policy choice. Make no mistake: We have the power to change things.

If an immigrant crosses the border with little to no money, little belongings with no family or friends and takes your job, then you need to have a good hard look at upgrading your skills.

This ~ 💯%

Six decades later, Star Trek may still be the only franchise based on the ideas that diversity is strength, justice is the measure of civilization, bounty is to be shared, peace is worth the price, and all these things can be achieved. We need more shows that look ahead and find goodness.

Absolutely

If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

I’m thankful for everyone using Bluesky, everyone building on atproto, everyone listening to our message and sharing our dream of a better social media ecosystem that puts people first. We’re going to do this together — thanks for joining us on this journey!
