Just say you're desperate to round up Brown people 😡

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

My favorite thing about being a millennial is that we all just decided to keep enjoying our childhood hobbies and toys❤️ We're all serious professionals who just collect squashmellows and pokemon cards and play smash brothers still.

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

This guy is an embarrassment to the state and to WSU alumni everywhere. What a complete coward who chooses an enemy dictator over our own allies.

Here is a survey from my congressman asking if we approve of DOGE and asking for places they can look for waste. I told him they can start with his salary...feel free to respond. iqconnect.house.gov/iqextranet/E...

www.cnbc.com/2025/02/26/j... Jeff Bezos, the Amazon founder and owner of the Washington Post, said Wednesday that his newspaper’s opinion pages would now be dedicated to supporting “personal liberties and free markets,” and that the organization would NOT publish opposing views.

Trump, Fyre Festival, childhood illness, oligarchies,sexism, ableism, racism, fascism, jelly sandals--why are we bringing back all of the worst ideas?

Hope is a practice that requires us to continuously choose to look within ourselves and our communities for answers, while also creating boundaries that permit us to have unspoiled moments and spaces for joy.--Democracy in Retrograde @emilyinyourphone.bsky.social

MSNBC left casual racism behind and went competitive.

Hey there, it’s Rep. Emily Randall. I wish I could talk to all of you, but filling out this quick survey is the next best thing. ✍️Can you take a minute to share what you’re most concerned about right now and what you want House Democrats to address first? er4c.com/feb-2025-survey?t=axTmFq

A brief word today at the end of the fifth horrific week of Trump 2.0. We are witnessing the transformation of our democracy into a dictatorship (or, as Trump enjoyed promoting this week, a monarchy). https://robertreich.substack.com/p/from-democracy-to-dictatorship

@aoc.bsky.social @wadems.org Where is your project 2029? What are you goals? You should close constitutional loopholes, end the electoral college, create term limits, protect human rights. Tell us what you stand for, not just what you're against! @jasmineforus.bsky.social

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out. Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal. Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home. That. Do that.
