Bernie is right. No more playing dead. No more running to the center. Sincerely, Someone who has watched you do this after every election loss the past 50 years.

I don't really know how to shout this from the rooftops any louder: If this actually happens, it would spell the end of U.S. numerical weather prediction--the scientific models, run on supercomputers, used to create virtually all weather forecasts. www.axios.com/2025/0...

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now. Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings. I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them. Get local media there. Make it real.

Saying you don't know what to do is a cop-out. Decide what matters to you and partner locally. No one is going to hold your hand or save you: no party, no court, no personality. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/frustrated...

There is a march on Tuesday and Stand Up for Science is on Friday. ✊ Pass it on… @50501movement.bsky.social @standupforscience.bsky.social

We're over 700 signatures! Take a moment to sign it and see if we can get this to 1,000. www.change.org/p/encourage-...

This is so fucking tragic. Today Europe is completely united behind Ukraine and the cause of freedom. Meanwhile the United States is sitting this one out along with Russia and Iran. Make it make sense.

For anyone looking to understand this traitor's actions, it's truly this simple. There is no other explanation. #TraitorTrump

Yes! Where is the outrage?! Crickets.

Sounds like a billionaire who’s never talked to a working person in his life. Elon: get your hands off of Americans’ hard-earned Social Security.

Where are our democratic leaders? Things are getting increasingly dangerous with the orange turd and his puppet masters, Putin and Musk, yet I don't see any action?

One day, we'll look back on this as just Step 1 of removing women from any position of public authority. No one is making a fuss, because it's just women, so Step 2 will be easier. The broligarchs have already stated repeatedly that they regard women's right to vote in America as a "mistake."

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Especially after today…

CAMERON: “I see a turn away from everything decent. America doesn’t stand for anything if it doesn’t stand for what it has historically stood for. It becomes a hollow idea, and I think they’re hollowing it out as fast as they can for their own benefit.” www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

The People's Union USA, a grassroots group, is calling on Americans to join a national boycott by not shopping for 24 hours on Friday.

Wait, what? The @thenvindy.bsky.social is reporting that the @northcarolinagop.bsky.social was wiring cash directly to Kash Patel back in May/June 2024 while he was living in Las Vegas in a time share owned by a GOP mega-donor. Huh. 🤔 thenevadaindependent.com/article/trum...

Did y'all hear about Elon Musk new $2 BILLION FAA contract? Conflict of interest . . .👀 Instead of Republicans taking jobs and programs away, they need to be investigating this—but OH RIGHT—they report to King Musk. www.cnn.com/2025/02/25/b...

The consequences of the Trump administration’s cuts to US foreign assistance continue to grow, from the closure of health clinics and food programs to the cancellation of online university classes for women and girls in Afghanistan.

North Carolina: first in flight, last in election results. The Supreme Court race is now officially the only undecided race in the country, as tracked by the Associated Press. #ncpol MORE--> andersonalerts.substack.com/p/nc-last-un...

Right-wing authoritarians rig our election maps here in North Carolina because they don't care at all what you think and only crave power for themselves and their cronies.

💥 BREAKING: At Apple's 2025 annual meeting of shareholders today, proposal entitled “Request to Cease DEI Efforts" is rejected by shareholders. Right-wing nonprofit National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR) proposal was also rejected by Costco shareholders 98-2 percent.

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

This Wednesday! Show up to the NC general assembly to let our legislators know we're paying attention!

“Get rid of Musk!” It’s growing.

"Brazil has demonstrated how democracies that value themselves defend themselves," Quico Toro writes. "America could have done the same."

The case, brought by attorneys general in 22 states and the District of Columbia, represents a pivotal test for the administration as it pursues a dramatic review of government spending priorities.

Everyone, please read this thread and share. Musk is closing down Social Security offices and it is not being reported. You have to go to the DOGE website to find it. Here are all the details: www.rawstory.com/anxiety-moun...

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans — including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

Schools should be safe for every student, regardless of their immigration status. Demand that your local school board takes a stand: indivisi.org/safe-schools

Action items for NC: Call your NC reps and senators to vote NO on these bills. These are the most dangerous bills right now, and the ones we need to focus our calls and effort on
