Reposting daily. Loving people's fire and hunger for more. Here is the plan. A couple 1 day blackouts so people see how ez and effective they are. Then week long protests. Then month long. Then we go for the throat.

FYI, I know you are all upset & I’m devastated. We’ve tried to mobilize people from all over to get the Senate Dems to do what’s right. In about 15 minutes, I am planning to be disappointed. Please take out your anger, appropriately by sending letters, emails, making calls & supporting primary

We need his strength & fairness. This guy would make a great President. www.kelly.senate.gov/about/

Here's what Senator Duckworth had to say. And she voted NO. Thank you, Senator @duckworth.senate.gov!

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

Elon Musk needs to go.

Where are all the Blue BILLIONAIRES?

“This is treason adjacent. I’m sure Pete Hegseth is very busy firing black people and women, so he’s not focused on the actual target here, which is Vladimir Putin.” @therickwilson.bsky.social on the U.S. halting offensive cyber operations against Russia.

The end of February is the last day of #BlackHistoryMonth not the end of Black history. We'll see this month out in style with our glorious late Mayor Harold Washington. Chicago is a union town and here he is, courtesy of member UIC, in a union parade! explore.chicagocollections.org/image/uic/99...

The way Vance kept yelling at Zelensky to say thank you every time he tried to speak just lets you know that Vance is scared of the camera, the truth, and that he definitely abuses his wife at home.

8 years cancer free! ❤️❤️ Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳

The moment in the cabinet meeting where RFK Jr, acting as the actual head of HHS was asked to respond to a deadly measles outbreak caused by vaccine refusal was one of those out-of-body, waking nightmare moments of the Trump era.

I’m somehow on a Heritage Foundation mailing list (😂) and they sent a survey to see what we think of DOGE. Who wants to offer some m-fing feedback?!? secured.heritage.org/the-heritage... Please share with a friend or a thousand :)

RIGHT NOW at Federal Plaza. We're setting up to say NO to Elon Musk and YES to CFPB!

Congratulations to Dr. Peter Hotez. I've had conversations with Hotez. Not only is he a brilliant man, but also a very kind human being. houston.innovationmap.com/peter-hotez-...

2 Monsters: Musk & McCarthy

We just watched President Musk hold a cabinet meeting: Absolutely unproductive It’s clear who’s really in charge All about trying to please Musk What’s going on here? www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

Trump will to BREAK the law & beg the Supreme Court for help—in order to save a buck over comply with the law and save countless lives! apnews.com/article/trum...

Love this. It should not be limited to this term. But it’s a great step forward. Now @khanna.house.gov and other house members need to make the media tour , including Fox News, to talk about it @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Something that’s very clear is that Trump is old and checked out. He wants to play the role of president but has zero interest in doing the job and is happy to outsource the real work to Musk, Vought and a crew of feral zealots.

2025 is the 100 th anniversary of the 1925 Woman’s World Fair in Chicago, Illinois!! I’ve lived in Illinois my whole life and didn’t know about this historic event! Next visit to Chicago, I’m taking my grandkids to the Chicago History Museum!!

If you think that you can ignore draconian abortion laws... good luck, babe! Listen back to our full conversation with @jessicavalenti.bsky.social wherever podcasts are found.

I miss DEI

Chainsaw anyone? They’re on sale at Home Depot. Elon Musk’s business empire is built on $38 billion in government funding. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/i...

We are glad to see that IL Senator Tammy Duckworth has begun posting on Bluesky. We ask #SenatorDurbin to join her. Since so many people & orgs have left Elon Musk's platform (Twitter) & many are loath to support Zuckerberg's platform (Threads on Meta), Bluesky is a vital way to communicate.

I’m demanding answers, alongside members of the Illinois federal delegation, from the Trump administration for ignoring court orders to release almost $1.88 billion in federal funding for our state. If they can't hold their end of the deal, Illinoisans deserve to know.

Pat Nixon and Justin Trudeau, 1972:

With another set of news headlines about political elites using “””Roman salutes””” I just want to note that the Nazi salute means “I want to murder your family” and the n-word means “I want to lynch you.” That’s what they mean, they make me righteously angry, and I won’t let anybody minimize them.

This is informative. Thanks

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

"'We’re bringing attention to what’s happening to the parks, which are every American’s properties,' said Gavin Carpenter, a maintenance mechanic with Yosemite and military veteran who supplied the flag and helped hang it." www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

Federal employees already account for their work with their supervisors. We should be thanking them for their service to our country, not jerking them around. Disgusting.

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

🚨 Your House representative is now back home through February 23. That’s where we come in. With Trump and Elon Musk pulling off a billionaire coup in real time, this congressional recess is about turning up the heat like never before. Let’s get to work: indivisi.org/muskorus

“When Elon Musk went on stage and took the chainsaw…I think that was the moment Elon Musk actually became president. Honestly, I just want to say this season of America sucks.” @jasonselvig.bsky.social reacts to Musk at CPAC.

Democrats are horrified when Trump and MAGA talk about him running for a 3rd term, but what if Dems called their bluff? If the Constitution is amended and presidents can run for a 3rd term, it could lead to a 2028 matchup of Trump vs. Obama.
