They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

"Did Trump just defy a court order?" YES, motherfuckers. Why in the fuck is that so hard for people to say? The judge told him to stop doing something, he did it anyway, IN DEFIANCE OF THE JUDGES RULINGS! WHY ARE PEOPLE COMMITTED TO ADDRESSING FASCISM IN THE PASSIVE VOICE????

Medicaid provides health care to more than 13 million women of reproductive age.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

“MaYbe shE’s goiNg to be in TroUble nOw” Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start

Heads up @theferocity.bsky.social in case you haven’t already peeped these photos

Hi there @congressmanboyle.bsky.social @fetterman.senate.gov THIS IS NOT OKAY!

Is @repbrendanboyle.bsky.social here too? If not why not?

If you don’t like calling (I don’t blame you: the voicemail menu is annoying and lately the lines have been busy or the mailboxes full), then here’s another way to contact your PA senators! First, Fetterman: www.fetterman.senate.gov/contact/?gf_...

📌

@fetterman.senate.gov would never. He can’t even be bothered to make sure his phones or websites are functional. I hope he heard my messages from last week about voting NO for Patel, Gabbard, Vought, and RFK and also my anger at his having voted to confirm Zeldin as EPA Admin. 🤬

“… today’s organizers are builders in an era of collapse. Against our wills, we have been locked into a course that will steer us into disaster upon disaster.”

Got a Dem Senator? They can do more than just vote. -Oppose Nominees -Reject Unanimous Consent -Vote NO on Cloture -Request Quorum Calls This is a constitutional crisis. They should act like it. Send an email to your Dem senators here: act.indivisible.org/sign/urge-de...

@repbrendanboyle.bsky.social you should also be urging a pardon of everyone on federal death row. The first Trump administration carried out unjust executions and they are likely to do it again.

Just the worst people possible out there in charge of things.

As a Democratic committee person in the 31st Ward, a volunteer with Riverwards Votes, and a member of RAD, I second this call to either get or stay involved.

A politics of refusal has never been more needed. Just refusing to go along with the bullshit. Period.
