For decades, the Grand Ronde Tribe has been unable to freely hunt & fish on their ancestral lands — all because of an unfair consent decree they were forced to sign. My bill with Senator Merkley would rectify this injustice & finally restore fairness for the Tribe. (1/2)

This is such a beautiful way to turn the fear of this moment into something positive for Seattle’s LGBTQIA+ community. I am so glad to live in a community that comes together during times of hardship – and also just what a cool place to get married! www.kuow.org/stories/roma...

Cuts to NSF expected to be at 50% reduction in force for an independent agency that fuels discovery and innovation. "The NSF budget was $9B, or 0.13% of the total [budget]." This is not about fiscal prudence. This is about killing universities. nanoscale.blogspot.com/2025/02/the-...

There’s something happening in this country.

"Should the court grant the motion, it would be the first lawsuit against DOGE where the plaintiffs are able to obtain evidence, albeit limited, on how Elon Musk’s faux agency is operating within the federal government." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

This is the way a truly professional journalist interviews a Gish-Galloping terrible excuse for a "conservative". PBS Newshour's @amnanawaz.bsky.social interviews "conservative commentator" Michael Knowles. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tnu... Knowles stopped smirking by the end of the interview.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

PSA: If you’re going to go around referring to yourself as the “king” of America you sure as fuck don’t get to call a democratically elected foreign leader a “dictator.”

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

How MAGA see Trump vs. how he really looks, spindly arms, weak little fists, and a trunk that looks like a keg of beer:
