A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

Where can I go to donate my ligaments to Knicks centers? We have the tech by now right?

(Sings) Hello injuries my old friend 🎶 🙂🔫 #Knicks #KnicksSky

Of course the Trump administration supports these two absolute losers… https://www.reddit.com/r/democrats/comments/1izkk1h/of_course_the_trump_administration_supports_these/ https://www.reddit.com/r/democrats/comments/1izkk1h/of_course_the_trump_administration_supports_these/

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power. The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever. But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

Good morning Happy Thursday ☺️ Happy Independence Day to the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴!! My parents country yes sir 💙❤️🤍 #BlueSky.

Brunson's efficiency in the final 30 seconds of clutch time this season has been staggering: 8-of-13 from the floor: 61.5% 14-of-16 from the FT line: 87.5% (too bad the Knicks don't have "a dude")

The Thompson Twins are too damn good

I have said it before but Monica ‘s narrating throughout the game is heaven to hear. #KnicksSky

I want her to take over full time for Clyde when he retires

The Mavericks need to stop dragging Luka in the press It makes them look petty and classless & infuriates the fans In addition, if you were a free agent, why would you come to a team that is going to trade you without warning and then stab you in the back for WEEKS afterward? Bad business #MFFL

Another ugly win in which Captain Clutch bails NY out But if the Knicks played like this (esp in the second half) against a decent team - they’d have lost again.

I’m writing John Roberts to inform him that his block on USAID will kill and harm people bc he either doesn’t know or doesn’t care. Chief Justice Roberts Supreme Court of the United States 1 First Street, NE Washington, DC 20543

Shorter: Chief Supreme Court Justice, John Roberts, is helping the criminal in the Oval Office and his trillionaire Nazi boyfriend starve children to death around the world. #Resist www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Trump is now proposing to sell a $5 million "gold card" that will provide a fast-track to citizenship for the ultra-wealthy. He's doing this as he tries to place restrictions on certain forms legal immigration, including pausing admission to refugees displaced by violence.

The Supreme Court went out of its way to add another obstacle for Americans seeking accountability when government officials violate our constitutional rights. That’s the opposite of what Congress intended — they wanted to break down barriers for Americans to seek justice in the courts.

Boycotts are taking hold. Protests are on the rise. Federal courts are hitting back. The Trump-Musk-Vance regime's popularity is plunging and DOGE is losing credibility. GOP leadership is now advising lawmakers to avoid holding in person town halls. Keep up the fight.

As Elon Musk guts entire government agencies and fires thousands of federal workers that deliver vital services to the country, remember that his corporations have received at least $38 billion in government contracts over the past 20 years. Yet will any of this be touched by DOGE? Of course not.

Here is our new mission…👇 Resist, always. Not. A. Single. One. ✨

This is what House Republicans voted for tonight. Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.

House Republicans just passed their budget resolution 217-215... That will literally take food from the mouths of babes. Take away health care from moms & seniors. Just to fund tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires. They'll pay dearly on November 3, 2026. 👎👎👎👎 👎They're all going down👎👎👎👎👎

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%. We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

House Rs just passed the budget resolution, the first step in their process to enact a bill that'd kick millions off Medicaid & cut SNAP down to just $1.60 per person per meal on avg while cutting taxes for the top 0.1% by $278k - all while increasing the debt 🧵on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

BREAKING — NBC celebrates Black History Month by firing its most prominent primetime Black cable news host and its most prominent weekend Black cable news host, and pushing out its Black nightly news anchor.

Good time to plug @benritholtznba.bsky.social’s recent gradebook, now available on Patreon. No punches pulled. Informed, deserved criticism & voiced several frustrations so many fans have been feeling. READ: patreon.com/posts/12302013…

The economy will soon crash and burn like one of his cars.

Medicaid provides 40% of the funding for community health centers. Medicaid supports 2 out of 3 people in nursing homes. Medicaid provides health care to 41 million children. Trump and his Republican friends want to enact massive cuts to the program. We won't let them.

The House will vote TODAY on whether to advance devastating cuts to Medicaid that would destroy lifesaving programs for people with disabilities, children, seniors, and more. Call your representative now and tell them to save Medicaid at (202) 224-3121.

Folks, TODAY is the big day… Call your House member at (202) 224-3121… Flood their phones. Speaker Johnson is going to try to bring up Trump’s big budget cuts tomorrow. With hundreds of billions cut from Medicaid, SNAP Food Stamps, Children’s Health Care, Veterans Health. We must fight back.

Knicks players from best to worst this season, per HoopsHype's Global Rating.

Republicans are pulling a reverse Robin Hood. The House could vote on its new budget resolution as soon as tomorrow. Call your rep to let them know how you feel about the GOP's plan to gut programs used by millions to fund tax cuts that will predominantly go to the richest Americans. (202) 224-3121

I'm gonna stop being mad online about this weekend's games soon, but this shot not being a corner 3PA is atrocious Further convinced me Thibs isn't making optimizing the Knicks' shot diet this season a priority, something which has been a huge strength in previous seasons in NY.

Boycotts are taking hold. Protests are on the rise. Federal courts are hitting back. The Trump-Musk-Vance regime's popularity is plunging and DOGE is losing credibility. In these dark times, it's important to recognize that people are fighting back. Join them.

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

If this doesn’t sum up the Sixers whole season lmfao
