Start loudly reciting the oath of office as a group over and over and over and over until you get arrested

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 Warren has one of the largest Ukrainian communities in Michigan, many of whom call House District 14 home. I stand with our Ukrainian neighbors in their fight for freedom and democracy.

We stand with Ukraine.

All jokes aside, I don't think folks up north realize just how disastrous this will be for the Gulf South

Trump’s disgusting behavior in our Oval Office in the company of a genuine hero and defender of democracy like Volodymyr Zelensky may be the most disgraceful public behavior by any president in our history.

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

There are 35 million people living in the Great Lakes region. Plus millions of fish, birds, plants and other creatures - we stand with science!

A guy who used to be a comedian & is good at improv and dealing with hecklers and who has also spent the last 3 years in a war zone turns out to be a guy you can’t out-alpha, imagine that

Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy. Minnesota stands firmly with our allies in Ukraine.

Continuing story, how many lives/wrecked bodies went into what Elon called the "wood chipper" when he illegally shut down USAID. Crimes are one thing. But Elon's body count will cry out down through the ages.

Reminder what tornado death rates looked like before improving forecasting, building codes, education, etc. Research matters. Back to 1875 we go! Figure credit: @hebrooks87.bsky.social

I can't believe grid people are falling over themselves to claim AI is a flexible resource. We literally just did this with Bitcoin and I remember this was widely ridiculed as being a patently obvious grift and bad for all of us. www.cbsnews.com/news/bitcoin...

JUDGE ALSUP: “.. The Office of Personnel Management does not have any authority whatsoever under any statute in the history of the universe, to hire and fire employees within another agency.” @nbcnews.com #OPM

The sea lamprey have no natural predators in the Great Lakes. Scientists figured out a chemical that stopped their breeding in the 1950s, but didn’t hurt other species. Now we are stopping the scientists. insideclimatenews.org/news/2702202...

35 million people - Americans and Canadians - live in the Great Lakes

Is this efficient?

Maybe instead of purging the Social Security workers who make sure seniors get their checks on time, we should be expanding benefits to make life a little easier for your parents and grandparents.

East Lansing — Two allies of former Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield testified in court Thursday that they went on trips with the Republican legislator to places like Miami and Las Vegas without personally knowing who bankrolled the excursions.… #MichiganPolitics #LeeChatfield #Embezzlement

The NWS is already short-staffed, making it much harder for the meteorologists who do crucial work to keep us all safe. NWS mets already work long shifts at all hours of the day. We will all be less safe because of this.

Judge orders discovery, allowing interrogations, depositions, information requests to develop. This is the first time a court orders this legal action in a case against the so-called DOGE. It is a critical next step to stop DOGE’s unlawful access to Americans’ sensitive data. 1/2

Frank talk from Gov. Walz. Well worth your time.

turns out democracy can die in a wide variety of lighting conditions

omg can we stop talking about the amoc and start talking about the disappearance of freshwater runoff from mountain glaciers thank you

The most deadly hurricane in US history was the one they had no warning of - the Galveston Hurricane of 1900. So this is good news from @drjeffmasters.bsky.social. Warnings save lives!

LET’S GO OHIO! Faculty and students at the University of Cincinnati’s protesting the decision of the University to comply with Trump‘s EO to dismantle DEI. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2mJ7AJb/

Went for a bike ride on the Potomac River & saw 3 pairs of nesting peregrine falcons & they asked me to spread the word that as soon as their chicks fledge, they will sharpen their beaks & talons, fly to DC & gouge out the eyes of anybody who says wildlife conservation is wasteful

Medicaid funds, especially those intended to help provide mental health resources, should be used to support the people who rely on these critical services, not siphoned away by those in positions of power. www.mlive.com/news/saginaw...

If you’re siding with Vladimir Putin, you’re wrong.

SOON: Our @ezralevin.bsky.social will join @maddow.msnbc.com to discuss the energy we’re seeing for fighting back against the Trump-Musk coup, Tesla town halls, the upcoming congressional recess, and much more. Tune into @maddowblog.msnbc.com on @msnbc.com.

Thank you Gov. Pritzker

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

Love is love. This resolution is just another stunt by a group that walked out of the last session and holds bills in this session.

Your regular reminder McConnell could have taken care of this in January 2021

Standing at the gates of Zion.

Wow. Chills. Significance completely lost on the culturally and historically ignorant drunk-on-power GOP. Clear and powerful message of defiance to everyone else. #uspoli #cdnpoli

Despite Musk & Vance’s interference, the Nazi-aligned party in Germany lost. 80% rejected it. Yet, it came in second & was the top vote getter among voters under 35. The Nazi sympathizers don’t go away. They come back with different names. We need to give people a reason not to vote for this hate.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

This is the truth...start local, think local. Democrats can win local races at city/county council, school boards, local/county judges, sheriff's and so on. Step up and be counted, and let's no longer have blank spaces on the ballots.

Great summary by a human of why artificial tools are useful when transcribing or checking your grammar and sometimes for coding, not actually thinking and writing with your own brain.

The government shuts down on March 14 unless Congress passes a new spending bill. Republicans need Democratic votes to pass anything, but they’re pushing a budget that slashes essential programs, attacks basic rights, and hands unchecked power over to Trump, Elon Musk, and their billionaire allies.
