Cuomo is the frontrunner, but once people are reminded of how fucking awful he is, his numbers will drop. It’s all name recognition at this point. He’s going to get hammered, and if the field consolidates, I suspect a much more sensible choice will beat him.

That's what the Nazis were trying to do, "correct for race".

This is an excellent explanation of just how brutal the academic landscape is going to be for many high-achieving minorities in the short term. BRUTAL. I can’t even.

We stand in solidarity with @womensmarch.bsky.social and all those taking action on March 8th for International Women’s Day. Join our Movement of Movements calling for change. #50501movement #PeoplesMovement #FiftyFiftyOne #InternationalWomensDay #WomensMarch #WeThePeople @polrev.bsky.social

URGENT: We are not aware of anyone connected with 50501 organizing for in person on March 4th in DC!! 50501 DC is having a *virtual* People’s State of the Union event. @youranoncentral.bsky.social could you remove this post for safety sake? events.pol-rev.com/@50501_movem... has our vetted events.

Fred Korematsu stood up for the rights of Japanese Americans illegally incarcerated during WWII, devoting his life to justice and equality. Today, Mr. Korematsu’s work is more relevant than ever and I am proud to lead efforts to honor his fight for equality.

Confused about Trump's tariffs? That's the point. But here's the bottom line—Trump's tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China will do one thing—drive up costs for working people trying to buy a house or a car or simple groceries.

During Rare Disease Week, patients and advocates were in D.C. for an event with the NIH, FDA, and HHS to highlight work being done on treatments and cures. It was abruptly canceled. Why? The administration fired the people organizing this important event and advancing this work.

Not attending the State of the Union to listen Trumb gaslight US is the minimum we expect from Democrats; ATTENDING is COMPLYING and giving CREDIBILITY to the incredible. NOBODY WILL BE TALKING ABOUT POTUS, THEY'LL BE TALKING ABOUT US. LET'S TAKE THE NARRATIVE. Pass it on if you agree. #NODEMS4SOTUS

Dustin protected kids from tobacco products. Arielle worked to make childbirth safer. Amy made sure donor organs would get to critically ill patients. Trump & Musk fired them all—& thousands more public health workers whose work was critical to keeping families & communities safe.

Economics is not a hobby, it’s a discipline and a profession and a serious field of academic inquiry and applied research. The letters GDP stand for words, as is typical of acronyms. The words are Gross (i.e. total) Domestic (i.e. produced by us) Product (i.e. good and services).

Assad with Russia and Iran’s help massacred hundreds of thousands of Syrians yet Israel is lobbying U.S. to keep Russian bases open in Syria. The same bases Wagner uses to commit atrocities in Africa. Get the hell out

Trump Tyranny Tracker: Day 40-42 Weekend Roundup is out! The tracker documenting the latest in corruption, power consolidation, civil & human rights abuses, and weaponization of government news. I apologize for missing Friday’s tracker—it was a draining day and included Friday news.

New evidence has emerged from The Insider that Russia did indeed offer bounties to kill US and coalition troops in Afghanistan. A reminder that Trump downplayed and protected Russia in 2020 when the NYT broke the story

Listen to David Remnick

They have uploaded all of our information into an AI. We are now all compromised and the Speaker of the House thinks its awesome. This is literally against the law and he loves it.

Innsurrection Barbie a maga from twitter is looking to make trouble for the #AltGov. Expect more misinformation and doubt seeding about the Alts to increase.

Just like old times—President Biden hopped on Amtrak today! Same Joe, same values. 🚆 Just a reminder: Years ago while Trump was flying high on Epstein’s jet, Biden was riding Amtrak home to his family. ♥️

Who is the real president, you might ask?

Call to Action: The Merit Systems Protection Board, an independent federal agency that safeguards federal employees in employment disputes, has paused the terminations of six probationary federal workers across various executive branch agencies and departments for 45 days.

The Capitol Police arrested a group of peaceful protesters who demonstrated today in the Cannon House Office Building against the Trump’s decision to freeze foreign aid and lay off thousands of USAID workers. The president has made his message clear: disagree with them, and they will come after you.

Today, a reporter from the Russian state news agency TASS gained unauthorized access to the Oval Office. How does one gain unauthorized access to the Oval Office? Meanwhile, AP and Reuters were blocked.

Elon Musk has shut down a team of tech-savvy civil servants responsible for developing the IRS’s free tax-filing service and improving government websites. As a result, 90 employees were immediately locked out of their devices and informed that their jobs were deemed non-essential.

🇺🇦 Last week, @repcohen.bsky.social & Rep. Joe Wilson reintroduced a resolution recognizing Russia's actions in Ukraine as genocide. It describes the ways in which 🇷🇺 war crimes constitute genocide, including indiscriminate killing of civilians & forcible transfer of millions of Ukrainians.

🇺🇦 Today, Commission staff had the honor of meeting with Save Ukraine about their ongoing efforts to save Ukrainian children kidnapped by Russia. They have rescued 571 children to date, including 12 who were brought home to Ukraine last week.

Because they’re starving for art in Riyadh? Meanwhile, kids actually starve for lack of RI-based Edesia’s Plumpy’Nut. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Been thinking of. Something that would be effective but I don’t think I’ll eat before a camera again

Affidavit showing grants still illegally frozen. Trump regime “fog bank” strategy is to avoid calls, emails or straight answers and continue to violate the court’s order. www.njoag.gov/wp-content/u...

If you were planning to undermine the rule of law, what would your first step be? Gee, I wonder… 🤔

The same Trump who cut funding for USAID anti sex-trafficking programs, the same one photographed with Epstein multiple times, has now allegedly helped the Tate brothers—accused sex traffickers—escape justice in Romania. That's who they protect. Anyone think they'll be returning to stand trial?

Putin, no I mean Trump,has never told it like it was . Why would he start tomorrow night?

Senator Roger Wicker (R-MA) on the question if Putin can be trusted, and if he should get a state visit to the US: "No. He broke every law on an international level. He is a war criminal. He should be arrested, trialed and possibly even executed". A Republican said that. It matters that he does.

Democrats hold the line. Do NOT agree to fund DOGE.

NEW: Measles hits Pennsylvania Montgomery County is the site of Pennsylvania's first confirmed measles case this year amid a national surge of the highly contagious virus. An investigation and contact tracing are underway. The patient — a child — visited the following locations during the…

Great news for money launderers!

Trump has committed TREASON. Below is the federal statute. When will Trump finally be prosecuted and sentenced?!
