Agreed. Worth every second. Listen. Rise up. Act.

This is a genocidal war crime endorsed by the president of the United States

We're living George Orwell's 1984: IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.

Exactly

Surreal.

The mainstream liberal media, led by the New York Times, normalized Trump for months - starting in late Spring. Shameful. They’ve continued to do so lost-election. Very much doubt that they have any regrets. The WaPo and LATimes with their oligarch owners are no better.

NEW: Climate change is upending the basic assumption that Americans can continue to build wealth and financial security by owning their own home. In a sense, it is upending the American dream. By @abrahm.bsky.social

Dear Democratic Leaders: here’s a free idea, send members of congress into the buildings where Elons people are and see what they’re doing. Dare them to stop you. Do something

This is great post Charlotte Clymer. I am reposting and I hope every single person on Bsky reposts and reposts and reposts. WE need to light a fire under our DEMs in Congress. Action is needed to save US Democracy & that action is needed NOW.

What the hell is this statement? Elon Musk is raiding our most sensitive data and dems are treating it like he's lobbying for a bill. Can someone please get loud?

This post with the Flynn screenshot is chilling.

ALL options.

Some people voted for trump. Some people voted for Kamala. Some people voted 3rd party. But I guarantee you that NOBODY voted for a fucking billionaire to be raiding our Social Security. What the fuck is THIS bullshit?

The tools used to destroy Twitter may now be applied to the US government www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

“You could open the funding floodgates again tomorrow and you will still have children dying months from now because of this pause,” the scientist said. 😡😡

180 Republicans voted against funding the FAA, the agency the prevents planes from crashing. Read this to find out who in your state was included so you can personally call and write them to let them know how you feel!! www.meidasplus.com/p/180-republ...

This right here

If you are worried your Social Security Medicare or VA disability check won't be coming out due to Elon Musk's access to Treasury department systems CALL CONGRESS 1-202-224-3121 ASAP

No, we don't need investigations. We don't need Senators posting on social media. We need you to literally grind everything to a halt in the Senate & get in front of microphones on the Capitol steps calling for the fascists to resign & your GOP colleagues to vote with you to impeach & remove them.

“Now that Trump has quickly shown his hand, any I-told-you-so impulse in the face of human suffering — even suffering self-invited by miscalculation — is counterproductive. It’s also a distraction from the crucial task of coalescing around a defensive strategy.” www.nytimes.com/2025/01/29/o...

Do yourself and democracy a favor. Support independent media.

Department of Transportation has issued a memo ordering programs supported by the agency to prioritize funding projects for communities with “marriage and birth rates higher than the national average.” www.huffpost.com/entry/dot-me...

Wondering how you can make an impact as Trump and Musk to dismantle the federal government? Check out DemCast’s weekly partner newsletter, with opportunities for engagement from grassroots organizations across the country! Pass it on.

Yes, he is your party’s president and leader. You have supported him in the past and you support him now. He is tangibly hurting people in Maine, and you will prattle on, act concerned, and do nothing. You will own everything he does to hurt Mainers and everyone else.

thanks so much Tim---your narration was wonderful

Our defense secretary is a political pundit, doing punditry while being in charge of the world's most powerful military. That's how insane our current moment is. The frog has clearly been boiling too long, because very few powerful people seem alarmed. www.mediaite.com/tv/fox-news-...

Insane

This is so embarrassing to the profession I love. Absolutely inexcusable.

A statement from the AFGE on the federal worker "buyout" www.afge.org/publication/...

I’m still not over the fact that Tim Walz went viral for calling Republicans ‘weird,’ put Trump and Vance on the defensive, then got picked as Harris’s running mate because of it, and then… he was immediately silenced, disappeared, and Dems stopped calling the GOP ‘weird.’

Given the toxic swirl of narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that has enveloped the country, I’ve never been more pessimistic about its future. And it’s not even about FFOTUS. He could choke on a cheeseburger tomorrow—a fate no cheeseburger would deserve—and I’d feel the same way.

In 2022 I founded the Vermont Afghan Alliance (vtafghanalliance.org). We serve mostly Afghan refugees who fought, at our behest, the Talibs and AQ. This includes Khowst Protection Force (KPF), a CIA run group. Trump cut all funding, and they can now be detained by ICE if they look suspicious.

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Week 1: Violated the Constitution, ignored federal law, pardoned hundreds of violent criminals, stopped funding for cancer research, hinted at ethnic cleansing in Gaza, gave the markets diarrhea, shuttered D.E.I. programs, stopped foreign aid, withdrew from the Paris Climate Accord ...

Excellent post

Six days into Trump's monarchical reign of terror, the Philadelphia Inquirer's editorial board refuses to cower or bend its knee Today, a powerful condemnation of Trump's pardon of violent Jan. 6 domestic terrorists as a gross abuse of presidential power www.inquirer.com/opinion/edit...

Memorizing this list

The White House didn't say "stop teaching about the Tuskegee Airmen when you do US history." The White House said "stop doing DEI and wokeness," and the military interpreted it as "stop saying the Tuskegee Airmen were heroes, and maybe stop teaching about them altogether." Yeah, that's bad.

Focus on 1 or 2 things. Go deep on those. Focus on "news" about those things first and foremost. Think about the concrete actions you can take to impact those ONE or TWO things.
