Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

@timmiller.bsky.social: “We cannot be made to be afraid of these f**king people. I know these people. They are cowards…Speaking out right now is a good in itself…They want you to be afraid and you have no reason to be fearful of these little men.” @principlesfirst.bsky.social

Iconic. Distress flag hung in protest from El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. #Resist

If you want to understand DOGE. Start here.

"A group of frustrated Yosemite National Park staffers hoping to draw attention to the federal government’s sweeping workforce cuts have hung an upside-down American flag thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan." www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

Playing 4-D chess

As America is being torn apart, weakened, and sold to the highest bidder, I think about all the folks who told me, "Well, it won't be THAT bad" and "We survived 4 years of Trump..." and "The systems will hold." All of them are privileged and well-off. Alas. We're all in it now.

Here’s what is going on. When you start firing the military’s top lawyers, that means you are getting ready to order the military to do unlawful things. Trump replaces those JAGs with men who will justify any future unlawful and unethical actions that he wants the military to do.

Members of Count Every Hero on tonight’s military firings: “The abrupt dismissal of general and flag officers without clear justification will disrupt the chain of command, diminish morale, and exacerbate the challenges facing our military at a time of...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

I feel like such a doofus working on my taxes like we’re making it to april

While US media continues their perverse adulation of Trump... The cover of Spiegel: "Betrayed—first Zelensky, then us. The US sells out its allies." Europe knows Trump is Putin's asset and a treasonous traitor.

This fantastic piece by Stewart Patrick is an excellent summary of the wrecking ball that Trump is taking to the entire international order crafted by Dem & Repub presidents over 80 yrs. Who does this benefit? The Kremlin, for certain. No one else. carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

Went to see the new @scoutmotors.bsky.social EVs in SC today, they are pretty sweet! 🤩

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/n... Rebecca Marodi, a California fire captain who was targeted by the right-wing as supposedly being a “DEI hire” and therefore blamed for the LA fires, has been found stabbed to death in her home.

Rage rage rage against the lying of the right

We are not staying silent. Share this all over today.

Best show on tv, hands down. #Severance

After assisted living blew through my mom's life savings (and then much of mine), Medicaid covered her necessary time in memory care. Magas (even those with decent health coverage) who have aging parents do NOT understand what's about to hit them. I feel NOTHING.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

A Missouri Representative has filed a bill to track pregnancies in the state. HB 807 will: "Maintain a central registry of each expectant mother who is at risk for seeking an abortion of her unborn child and make the same available to a prospective adoptive parent who has completed screenings."

The most unpatriotic members of any society are the far right. They will always align with foreign interests against the interests of their own nations. They will always undermine national institutions and national values in pursuit of their own interests. When they pose as patriots, they lie.

Will the GOP ever figure this out? Sources say no. 🎱

A Delta flight carrying ~80 passengers from Minnesota appears to have crash landed at Toronto Pearson Airport. No casualties reported as of this time. Numerous photos and videos have been released showing passengers safely exiting the plane, which flipped upside down. At least 8 people injured.

I’ve never been afraid of flying before but these a new days.

Columbia, SC showed up today! 💙🩵

This is insane.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

Doing great 👍
