🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

This is perfection.

@feistykitchen.bsky.social hello!

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH** * Currently paused by Executive Order ** Grant reviews now all canceled www.kcur.org/news/2025-01...

Can’t wait to find out how ending Black History Month celebrations at federal agencies is going to lower the price of eggs.

1. Sabotage public institutions. 2. Claim they don’t work efficiently. 3. Eliminate them. — That’s the playbook.

Right out of the gate they are detaining U.S. citizens and saying their “papers”are fake. It was always a lie.

Egg prices are up 37% and rising. It’s day 4.

🤦🏻‍♀️

Like so much of what 47 et al are doing, they don’t care about the details and are indifferent to (smugly satisfied about) the consequences of their actions. Depraved indifference.

Thanks for the reminder. They have succeeded (for me). For now.

The only thing that makes what Elon Musk did an awkward gesture is how many people are defending it.

Pamela Hemphill, who served 60 days in prison for her role in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, said she did not want a pardon. “Absolutely not,” Hemphill said. “It’s an insult to the Capitol Police.” nyti.ms/4hmt67M

Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's philanthropy and other US funders said they will cover US financial obligations to the UN climate framework after Donald Trump called for the US to withdraw - for a second time - from the Paris climate agreement reut.rs/3E2AGGu

Various advocacy organizations are offering resources to help immigrant families in Colorado as fears of mass deportations grow under the new Trump administration. By @lindseytoomer.bsky.social

NPR Exclusive: The Episcopal bishop of Washington spoke with NPR to discuss her sermon addressing President Trump and why she asked him to have mercy.

JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs are pushing back on demands to roll back their diversity initiatives

“UM” indeed.

Fact

it’s been three days and people can’t even FIND eggs

I’m old enough to remember when criticizing Nazis was good. America, 2025.

The Trump administration defunded medical research today. Friends in the media it’s not anymore complicated than this. Report it as such

Too bad they’re not fans of science or they would know that “all embryos have female sex characteristics at conception” which means that “all Americans are now defined as female under this order.”

@newtricks.bsky.social hello, my friend!!!

Some people don't want to hear it but there's no silver bullet to address all that we face. These problems and issues have long roots. This is a marathon. Do what you can within your capacity [with others]. Keep focused and pass the baton when it's time.

“Nonetheless, it's highly unusual for someone so closely affiliated to so publicly step on White House announcements in such a manner.” Not so unusual anymore.

Jake Chansley, who complained that prison didn't serve organic food, was one of the 1,500 Capitol rioters pardoned by Trump on Monday night, meaning he can now legally buy firearms. www.jezebel.com/qanon-shaman...

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

“Senator Roger Wicker (R-Miss.), who chairs the Armed Services Committee … admitted he had not reviewed the affidavit but had ‘grave doubts as to the substance’ of the document he admitted to not reading.”
