Iā€™m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. Itā€™s time to take the gloves off.

Thereā€™s something happening in this country.

ā€œIf you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.ā€ A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

Report: You Live In An Embarrassing Country

No, but if youā€™re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Call to Action: March 4 Liberty. Washington, DC and every state capitol, March 4th, 12PM - 9PM. Further announcements for the 5th to come later. Need max number of people in DC as Trump addresses congress. #3E #USprotests #March4Liberty #FiftyFiftyOne #Mar4

The aftermath of yesterday's Russian strike on Kherson. Five people injured, including 13 year old twins. Their mom is still under the debris, rescuers are trying to find her. Russia attacks Kherson every single day.

Escape,1940 by Polish painter Tamara de Lempicka, painted just after the artist arrived in the US and it evokes the hardships of war in Europe #WomensArt

Ruhle: The left-leaning podcast MeidasTouch has just done the unthinkableā€”dethroned Joe Rogan to become the countryā€™s most popular podcastā€¦

He should be our messenger.

I consider myself blessed that I was born at a time where women who preceded me paved the way for my legal career and my reproductive freedoms. I consider my duty to fight for the gift these women gave me. I owe it to them.

I donā€™t often feel rage. That said, Iā€™ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadershipā€¦Zelenskyā€¦being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

What the actual fuck?! America, itā€™s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

Works as advertised

In case you like data tooā€¦ White Americans make up a larger share of Medicaid recipients in rural areas, which are predominantly in red states. For example, 68% of rural Medicaid beneficiaries in 2020 were white.

ā€œTarget is under more heat than companies like Walmart, John Deere or Tractor Supply because it went further in its DEI efforts, and it has a more progressive base of customers than those companies.ā€ šŸŒˆDamn right! I even purchased a Costco membership a month ago OUT OF PRINCIPLE alone. āœŠšŸ»āœŠšŸæāœŠšŸ½

BREAKING: Massive protest rallies are happening today across the country, blasting DOGE and the guy that nobody voted for. There will even be a protest at SpaceX headquarters. SPREAD THE WORD. šŸ™šŸ’Ŗ

Iā€™m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Acosta: Itā€™s hard to see somebody out-Spicer Sean Spicer or out-Huckabee Sarah Huckabee Sanders, but Karoline Leavittā€”sheā€™s making a run for it. Unless theyā€™ve already done it on SNL, I have to think something like that is in the works, because the skit writes itself.

Time for some necessary Good Trouble! #RESIST

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Donā€™t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

Hero. šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡¦

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but itā€™s time to call it what it isā€”this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

That tracks.

Wonder if Elon could survive a week on the salary we make. While he burns through $8 million a day, the working class strugglesā€”yet he paints us as the enemy.

In my city there is one cybertruck and one DIY parody of a cybertruck and the parody truck has become a local celebrity. Meanwhile, I always wish I had some rotten eggs to throw at the tesla whenever I see it.
