Ben Wikler has been inspiring to those of us in WI. I wish him well, but gosh, really will miss him in the state.

Inspiring. Such good trouble.

Timothy Snyder's 20 Rules On Tryanny as read by John Lithgow.

My butt needed this kick today.

Stay focused

Sciencing.

Russia started the war. They bear responsibility for bringing about peace.

Agreed

Coincidence?

Ignore RFK Jr. Vaccinate your kids

I needed this to drop in my feed today.

Maybe we need to have legislators have science fairs where they demonstrate an event based in science. #science

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

A measured observation on where we are.

Following the CDC's removal of critical health data and the potential approval of RFK Jr. as Health Secretary, it is crucial to access accurate health information from independent sources such as the WHO, Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins University, and peer-reviewed journals.

Wisconsin Head Start cannot access federal funds. Some centers are shutting down, leaving hundreds without childcare. #fundingfreeze #headstart #childcare

How Poppy is feeling at this moment.

I hate making calls. But this makes calling your reps simple. To make it even easier, put your senators and US rep in your phone as “Politician Sen *Name*.

Wisconsin knows— April 1, we need to elect Judge Susan Crawford, because it's all on the line. Fair maps. The future of democracy. Freedom in Wisconsin. We're ready. Are you? wisdems.org/volunteer

“To forget would be not only dangerous but offensive; to forget the dead would be akin to killing them a second time.” - Elie Wiesel On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember those we lost, honor those who survived, and commit ourselves to fighting antisemitism and hate wherever it exists.

HRC is always informative. Tonight she outlines the history and importance of Inspector Generals.

For those interested the World Health Organization is on 🦋. You can stay informed @who.int

This person understands redemption.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

Mood for the next 48 months.
