Sign up for the general strike now! I did. generalstrikeus.com

My name is Kris Brown, I’m the president of @bradybuzz.bsky.social, and as I work to end gun violence, my greatest goal is to put myself out of work. When gun violence is the #1 killer of kids and young people in America, inaction is not an option.

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

British Columbia is already pulling the American liquor.

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Trump FROZE all hiring for FAA Flight Tower Controls, making our airports less safe. THIS is what happens when you put PROFITS OVER PEOPLE. No head of FAA either because Musk said it was too expensive. This isn't Twitter, this is our lives! Trump should be charged with 64 counts of manslaughter.

Let Denmark cook.

Costco is one of the few corporations that has not kissed the ring. They don’t allow guns in their stores either!

Immigrants are taking all the best jobs.

President Claudia Sheinbaum has proposed a compromise name for the Gulf of Mexico.

"Let me put it in words you might understand. Mr. Trump, fuck off."

People have such short memories.

This is what I will be watching on inaugural day… A gentle reminder that President #Kennedy managed to hold his #inauguration in 7 degree weather and almost as cold for Obama’s in 2009. #HistoryMatters www.jfklibrary.org/learn/about-...

I am resharing my updated pro-democracy starter pack. It is followed by more than 1625 users. I hope it helps you on your Bluesky journey. go.bsky.app/JSLScTv

Trump is planning to deploy hundreds of officers to begin large-scale raids of American communities next week, which will require the use of mass detention camps.

GM Bluesky! Don’t for a second think that TikTok is being banned permanently. It’s all a con. Trump will play the big hero and lift the ban on Monday or Tuesday. Welcome to the era of fully performative governance. It’s all about self-enrichment now. Protect your peace & relax that jaw.✌️

Betcha ten bucks the price of eggs will be going UP. ⬆️

For the people in the back…

California attorney Mark Lemley dropped Meta Platforms Inc. as a client in a high-profile copyright case because of CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s “descent into toxic masculinity and Neo-Nazi madness,” the Stanford University professor said on LinkedIn. news.bloomberglaw.com/ip-law/meta-...

Pam Bondi is too corrupt to lead the Department of Justice.

In 1947, America had the Hollywood Ten, who refused to cooperate with fascism. In 2025, America will have the Hollywood Three, who will eagerly collaborate.

Peter Navarro moving some personal effects back into the White House.

The GOP members of Congress voting against aid for the California wildfires should be careful what they wish for. 70% of federal disaster relief funds go to red districts. Do they really want to play that game?

NEW: A North Carolina judge rejected a GOP motion to toss out nearly 60,000 ballots cast in all November 2024 statewide races. Paige Moskowitz and I explain the ruling, the RNC's goal and the connection to state Supreme Court race. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyM3...

Huge gratitude for our neighbors, Mexico and Canada have sent fire fighters and army to help us.

"When Mexico sends its people, they're sending their best. They're sending firefighters to help solve American problems. They're bringing fire fighting uniforms. They're bringing fire fighting equipment. They're bringing kittens down from trees. And all, I assume, are good people."

There are 3000 counties in US and ~500 of them are blue. They house half the population and generate 72% of American wealth. They are the hubs for innovation and economic activity. If you want to live in a backwater, that’s fine, but drop the piety.

LIVE: Local news crew captures fire tornado in LA. The largest of the LA fires, in Palisades, is still only 8% contained. Local news station KTLA 5 captured this fire tornado on its northern flank, funnelling flames hundreds of feet into the air. (🎥 KTLA 5 News)

Oh, look! A parasite is now selling anti-parasitic drugs.

The only things getting me through these foreboding Pre-Inauguration-of-Caligula days are family, friends, those amazing photos of the universe’s nebulas & stories of people in LA helping each other. ❤️

I encourage all in the Austin, Texas area to visit the “77 Minutes in Their Shoes” exhibit at the Canopy Projects Gallery. You can feel what it may have been like for the 19 Uvalde students & 2 educators during the 77 minutes it took to be taken from their families. www.77minutesintheirshoes.com

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million. That is a lie. The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

The real reason that @dontrumpjr.bsky.social went to Greenland? He saw lots of white powder. Enough said.

In New Orleans, Las Vegas and any other unfolding situations, much of what breaks in early news is wrong. Be careful what you share in the first 24 hours, even from legitimate sources.

Westchester folks - your (year)long crime nightmare has come to an end. They have caught the pizza graffiti guy. patch.com/new-york/oss...

By leaving insecure tracking devices on the open internet, “police have not only breached public trust but created a bounty of location data for everyone who drives by which can be abused by stalkers & other criminals,” EFF’s @cooperq.com told @wired.com.

Someone remind Joe Biden that he has full immunity for official acts, like pardoning anyone he feels like pardoning, telling the IRS to release all of Trump's tax returns, and telling the DOJ to release Jack Smith's report and any non-classified evidence from Donald's many cases.

I’ve always found it funny that English has a specific word for throwing someone out of a window (defenestration). What would be funnier is if Russian doesn’t.

Peter Yarrow & his daughter showed up on Capitol Hill to support the Chicago gun violence survivors at the #EndGunViolence Rally on September 25, 2019. He was a gifted performer with limitless compassion. May he rest in peace!
