I’m excited for fake agency DOGE to get to the Space X and Tesla contracts worth billions. That will save a ton!

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

Your coffee just got more expensive thanks to Trump

I read someone asking the other day about what the initiating event for the Trumpist right was, and I saw a lot of people claiming that it was essentially racist, the eleciton of a Black man to the Presidency. I don't think that's quite right. (a 🧵)

Colombia: We're not taking shackled detainees returned on military flights. Transport them with dignity Trump: Trade war! Colombia: OK Trump: Fine, no more shackled detainees returned on military flights Colombia: Good. Was that so hard? Trump: They gave in!

“My only regret is they should have brought rifles,” Stewart Rhodes said four days after Jan. 6. “We could have fixed it right then and there,” he said. “I'd hang fucking Pelosi from the lamppost.”

Get them, Rep. Velazquez!!

Trumpers are exhausting 🥴 The mental gymnastics these people go through is unreal! Just had a FB standoff with 2 of them and now I need a nap, lol

We told you. My husband told me to stop going over this, but WE TOLD YOU. A lot of us read the whole damn 800+ pages & broke them down so you’d understand them. To no avail.

Wow

1. From Musk Watch's weekly roundup: Ruth Ben-Ghiat, a historian whose work focuses on 20th-century fascism described it as “a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one.” "Did Elon Musk just Heil Hitler," MAGA influencer Evan Kilgore asked in a post on X. "We are so back."

AOC: "I want folks at home to look at what members of Congress are invested in private prisons companies, and look at the votes on this bill. It is atrocious that people are lining their pockets with private prison profits in the name of a horrific tragedy."

CARTOON OF THE DAY

This is a great piece. "As deportations ramp up again, we have a choice: We can watch as our neighbors disappear or we can build on these proven strategies to protect the diverse communities we've built together."

Good work, everybody! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Fight back. With your printer. flip.it/ntq6Pv know your rights cards.

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

For 15 years since the Citizens United decision, our elections have been for sale to the billionaires with the biggest bankrolls. Enough is enough. We have to stop the oligarchy.

i said a few times here and there before the election that we’ll see what the mass deportation plan looks like when it’s ICE agents dragging grandmothers out of churches and, well, here we are

Here's how they report on him in the UK, where their free press has a spine.

BBC not buying the gaslighting

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

Trump is playing global political games that have the potential to end American lives. The lives of poor kids like me. Because you all know these rich a**holes aren’t going to be leading the charge, no matter how macho they pretend to be 😂😂😂 youtu.be/0XQZD7F2iRY?...
