If you're protesting this weekend, know your rights when interacting with law enforcement, including immigration agents.

FYI, @senatedemocrats.bsky.social, don't send me another effing fundraising text or email until you find your courage, your commitment to America, and a new leader. #FuckChuck

@durbin.senate.gov to say I am disappointed in your vote today is an understatement. You did not listen - we are willing to fight why aren’t you.

@durbin.senate.gov Vote NO on CR- an IL constituent, Skokie IL

@schumer.senate.gov Vote No- an IL constituent. Do not let us down

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law: “It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...

Share if you agree. 🇨🇦 🇲🇽

@aviscar.bsky.social very unhappy to have been assigned a car with a key fob that I need to replace battery

Dear angry Republican voters who've showed up at GOP Town Halls to complain about the spending cuts, firings and chaos: Speaker Mike Johnson just told CNN's @kaitlancollins.bsky.social that you were 'paid democrat protestors'. They don't care about you. Remember this for the 2026 midterms

It took ten years, but the NYT finally got there

Resisting comes in all forms. Here is a very creative one starting to pop up.

Humbled that our project, The Life of the Mother, has been recognized with a George Polk award. It was truly inspiring to watch this team of women persevere through the most difficult reporting to tell the story of how abortion bans are costing lives. www.propublica.org/atpropublica...

Bryan MacCormack, the executive director of a New York-based immigrant rights group, was pulled over by CBP with two undocumented passengers in the vehicle. He knew his rights, refused to acknowledge their "warrant", and despite CBP threatening him, the agents eventually were forced to let him go.

Starting to think the only way to fix the Democratic Party (read, purge it of its Stockholm syndrome-addled leadership) is to start a similarly liberal party, headed by non-patsies, and encourage current officials to switch.

We're about to make polio great again. Remarkable. How Lagging Vaccination Could Lead to a Polio Resurgence www.nytimes.com/2025/01/13/h...

CIGNA DOC: “Cigna tracks every minute its staff doctors spend deciding whether to pay for health care. Dr. Debby Day said her bosses cared more about being fast than being right: “Deny, deny, deny. That’s how you hit your numbers.” #MedicareforAll www.propublica.org/article/cign...

I’m so tired of him as well.

BREAKING: Trump's lies about a Democrat-caused crime wave implode as data reveals that the murder rate plummeted by a staggering 16% in 2024 — bringing the numbers down to pre-pandemic levels. Experts credit the drop to the 2022 Bipartisan Safer Communities Act that Joe Biden signed into law.

So, not an immigrant, not a Muslim, not undocumented, but a white dude who was a big Trump supporter. Curious how MAGA spins this... www.thedailybeast.com/las-vegas-cy...

We will never forget.

WASH POST: “Americans want lower prices. Too bad: Trump wants tariffs.” Republicans think Trump will deliver them, even as they support his tariffs/trade war which promises to do the opposite. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

You wanted a reality show host as a president, well now you’re on Survivor.

It would have been nice if mainstream media highlighted stories like this before the election.

The correct answer is to ban Nancy Mace from all gender neutral bathrooms EVERYWHERE.

If you are in Oklahoma or know others that are with school age children, please pass this along to them. Defense of Democracy created opt-out forms for Ryan Walter’s forced bible instruction. Let’s keep getting in good trouble! #EduSky #Resist kfor.com/news/oklahom...
