CUBS WIN!

#FlyTheW! Like Sideshow Bob, the 2025 Cubs are an unstoppable killing machine, as they beat the White Sox 7-3 to start the year 3-0.

This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice). 1. Refused to violate the law. 2. Refused to violate the Constitution. 3. Refused to bow or scrape. 4. Refused to bend a knee. 5. Deleted this stupid email.

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)

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Just reached 290,000 followers here on Bluesky, and, well: Wow. Thank you for being part of my experience here. To celebrate this really cool milestone, I've donated to Black Girls Do STEM, because we need diversity in STEM fields more than ever these days. Onward! bgdstem.com

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

He nails it.

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.

In case anyone has any doubt whose idea this is, Musk sent similar emails to employees shortly after buying Twitter www.teslarati.com/elon-musk-ex...

not a clue what this means.

What do you mean personal space? There’s no such thing when you are behind schedule for breakfast, walks, and catio time. #cats #BlueskyCats #caturday

The purge of senior officers who have served with distinction on the battlefield and off should send a shiver down the spine of any American who cares about an apolitical military.

US officials are reportedly threatening to revoke Starlink access for Ukraine if they don’t give us 50% of their mineral rights. That’s not diplomacy, it’s extortion. We’re also pushing them to kill a UN Resolution that blames Russia for starting the war. Facts matter.

I heard someone compare Trump’s mass firings to him being a bull in a china shop. I disagree. Trump is a like a bull in a VA hospital. Trump is like a bull in an assisted living facility. Trump is like a bull in an Alzheimer’s research center. Trump is like a bull in a NICU.

A draft deal between the United States and Ukraine over rare earth minerals and other natural resources is “not the one President Zelensky would accept,” according to a source familiar with the negotiations. bit.ly/4i9dXHr

These people all have actual conflicts of interest that should keep them from working on any investigations like this. It's a measure of how tainted and corrupt this Justice Department is becoming and it breaks my heart. I hope it doesn't break our country. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Here’s a quick summary of what we know about Bird Flu. Please reshare if you find it helpful!

“We have thousands of transgender servicemembers who have served openly and honorably, and their loss would leave a massive hole in our country’s military capabilities.” — Colonel Bree Fram, one of the highest ranking trans servicemembers www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

DNC Chair @kenmartin.bsky.social has a message to anyone who is doubting the Democratic lawmakers: “Our party isn’t dead...Democrats are fighting, and I see it all around the country.”

Justin Steele takes the mound for his spring debut today as the Cubs host the White Sox at Sloan Park. A couple of innings, a clean outing, and a healthy arm—that’s the goal.

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands. 👇

From where I sit and from what I’m reading it looks like Europe is coming together to say to tRvmp and Putler, “Do what ya want. Have yer little meetings. We’ve got other ideas!” 😏

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

This is in one of the most conservative districts in Wisconsin ⤵️

Strong statement by retired Rear Admiral Mike Smith, President of NSL4A: "National Security Leaders for America strongly condemns the removal of senior military officers without just cause. ... Removing experienced leaders with meritorious records weakens the force and emboldens America’s enemies."

STATEMENT: “This Is The Move Of A Weak And Insecure Tyrant, Not A Strong Commander-in-Chief”

My staff had a wonderful time at Northwest Alliance for Housing Affordability's workshop! Thank you to the organizers for putting this together and for advocating for housing justice throughout the Northwest suburbs!
