Call to action: Veterans March in DC on March 14. If you know a vet or active service member talk to them about the danger of the Trump regime and encourage them to participate. “We dont take an oath to a king.” -Gen Mark Milley #3E #EndAutogenocide #EndOligarchy #EndImpunity

Arresting someone without charge, explanation, or due process to silence dissent is unconstitutional. This type of thing happens in dictatorships, not America. You don’t have to agree with Mahmoud Khalil to defend his rights—if his freedoms can be taken by the Trump administration, so can yours.

Remember Canadians, it is about boycotting American products! The EU and the UK are our trusted friends and allies and should not be forgotten. If you cannot buy a Canadian product please buy British, French, German, Scandinavian, Italian and so on! Let's build a stronger world together!

He was always a used car salesman at heart.

one thing i keep thinking about is how there is simply no way to design a constitutional system that can resist authoritarian incursion if participants in that system do not actually care that much

March 11, 2025:

Elon Musk is pushing to end phone services at Social Security, which 73 million retired and disabled Americans rely on to apply for and access their earned government benefits.

FACT.

Not only does this Trump administration want to end birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented parents, but they’re also seriously considering revoking the citizenship of natural born and naturalized Americans as punishment for a crime. thetriibe.com/2025/02/the-...

From @theathletic.bsky.social: A range of baseball hats featuring all 30 MLB teams went viral when fans spotted the vulgar Spanish word the design accidentally created. The Texas Rangers hat has since disappeared from the online shop.

There are many good answers to this, but "Don't go" and "Boycott" are not among them. This is television. Television is one of the only things Trump cares about. Don't allow that room to be filled only with his admirers. Shout back, disrupt, challenge, boo, fight. Mess up his show and make it yours.

May I suggest something radical? Have mercy on people. Even on here. What’s happening is unprecedented, so politicians, journalists, public servants etc are doing their best to adjust. Not doing exactly what you think they should doesn’t mean they’re giving up or giving in.

Today, around ten thousand people gathered at Tesla showrooms across 50 states and internationally to protest Elon Musk (DOGE). We encourage everyone to join again next Saturday, March 8th, with more events planned.

Thanks to everyone who participated nationwide!

Hard to disagree

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 ✊

President Trump & Elon Musk want to dismantle the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). That would eliminate free public access to weather forecasts, hurricane tracking, and wildfire alerts. Act now to protect NOAA! act.ucsusa.org/3D9MkPy

Hey everyone -- Moms of Liberty and Dept of Education launched a snitch line portal today to rat out teachers and anyone promoting anything DEI. FLOOD THE PORTAL Spam the hell out of it. Pass it on! It works! enddei.ed.gov

I was just looking around on eBay, and the starting bids for the souls of Republican politicians are far lower than one would expect.

Budzinski: "We saw just yesterday another round of layoffs at the VA -- 1,400 more people. When we're trying to address veterans suicide rates, when you're cutting jobs for folks that are actually answering those suicide hotlines, how is that in the service of our veterans?"

Folk musician Rhiannon Giddens said on social media that she has moved her May concert – originally scheduled for the Kennedy Center – to a different venue in Washington, D.C.

Murphy: "The destruction of our democracy is part of this story ... this is super unpopular, what they are doing. Nobody wants their healthcare to disappear ... so how do you get away with it? You try to destroy our democracy. You try to crush dissent. You threaten members of Congress with arrest."

Look at this leader. Lift her up.

The AP was banned from the event but the French press corps conspired to get a US AP reporter inside and insisted she be allowed to ask her question.

I was proud to be part of the United States team that rallied the world to support Ukraine. Now, I’m horrified by what we’ve become. A tragic day for democracy and an indelible stain on America’s history.

There it is. Good.

#Doge #Musk #Trump have come to roost. My company has a supply chain automation contract with the #VA to provide mail order pharmacy to veterans. Mission critical work. We just received this email @briantylercohen.bsky.social @hcrichardson.bsky.social @timmiller.bsky.social

More than 20 Musk staffers resign over Doge’s ‘dismantling of public services’ www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid. So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

From a guy who used to work there: Rachel is a remarkable person and the best TV news talent there is. If she says something is fucked up, it is. Getting rid of Joy, who dared to see through this fascism bullshit years ago and had the gall of occasionally being funny about it, is dumb.

The settlement here will not be for a trivial amount
