It’s a frightening time in our history. But in spite of that reality — or rather, in response to that reality — we are organizing and still rising. #NoKings

Flopper mcflopster, might out preform Tony Parker

But we can slash the EPA SNAP and WIC while continuing to subsidize corn and wheat production. Oh and that "Big beautiful bill" that aims to down regulate emissions and toxic chemical release.... Please someone make it make sense. This is the most incompetent administration... #gohomeyouredrunk

Merit = nepotism

Today, the third #mpox emergency committee is taking place. The committee will advise WHO’s Director-General if the outbreak of mpox—that started last year in the DR Congo and a growing number of countries in Africa—continues to be a public health emergency of international concern. bit.ly/3AoE3FO

đź‘‘ Jane Fonda with a mic drop "Empathy is not weak or "woke." And, by the way, "woke" just means you give a damn about other people."

Merriam-Webster defines "woke" as: aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)

Paying to reduce the risk of wildfires is cheaper than stopping them once they’ve started. The Protect the West Act will invest in Colorado’s public lands to reduce wildfire risk, restore our watersheds, and protect our communities.

FEMA firings are set to increase tonight, even after Trump approved FEMA funding for Kentucky. He calls FEMA worthless but then utilizes it?

It's not hidden secret that Trump and Musk believe in eugenics, which is terrifying for anyone that isn't a white male. #resist

Healthcare is non-discrimanatory. Ask any nurse or doctor who has saved a complete strangers life. After all, it's a human right #resist #Healthcare

UNICEF is on the ground in #DRCongo delivering urgently needed humanitarian assistance — but more help is needed as violence intensifies in the eastern provinces.

You want to talk about fraud, waste, and abuse? Well, here you have it. The American public didn't vote for Donald Trump so he could hand over billions in taxpayer dollars to his biggest donor. This is corruption of the highest order.

RFK Jr. isn't just unqualified to run HHS — he also poses a direct threat to our public health. We're holding the Senate floor and doing everything we can to delay this dangerous nomination. Tune in as I explain why I'm voting NO on RFK Jr.⬇️

As you likely vote yes, remember you're a physician. Don't vote party lines. Vote you protect those who elected you. There are a rising number of measles cases. #vaccinessavelives

Good to see the NYT using its homepage to maximum effect here. We're in a five-alarm fire and they've realized it. Don't let up.

This isn't South African politics where you can pay people off. We need to exemplify democracy and checks and balances.

At around $200,000 per hour to fly, and 6 hours of flight time round trip is roughly 1.2 million dollars spent. That's 1.2 million dollars that could be used for #humanatarianaid around the world. DOGE is a joke.

I wonder how much money it cost the Untied States tax paying citizens for @donaldjtrump-maga.bsky.social to attend the super bowl... doesn't seem like efficient government spending to me 🤷‍♀️...

@vanhollen.senate.gov consider this my voice, stand for your constituents, and hold Angela Alsobrooks accountable

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Just remember, Musk isn't an elected official or appointed in any official capacity. Trump just has him doing thr dirty work. He has no power except what we give him out of fear #resist

Big time 🚨 energy. Calling all of the 🧪 feed. Please re-skeet.

Day 9 of the health department communication freeze... without CDC data and insights on emerging infectious diseases the 2020 COVID pandemic will suddenly be history. Marburg outbreak in Tanzania Ebola is still spreading in DRC 4 school districts in north Texas are close for flu #tipoftheiceburg

American politics have global implcations... who really benefits from war and what are the true (hidden) costs our allies pay?

Healthcare isn't political. It's science. Party lines mean nothing when we enter a public health crisis under RFK Jr, countless lives will be at risk #resist

Healthcare is not a political issue. It's not a reason to vote party lines. Thank you to the elected officials who are protecting their constituents and the population @bennet.senate.gov @raskin.house.gov @aoc.bsky.social

This is what government under oligarchy looks like.

The January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol was a violent assault on our democracy. President Trump’s decision to issue these pardons erodes Americans' faith in the rule of law.
