Holy crap. Reading these stories explains something. leavingmaga.org/our-story/

I would rather have Air Traffic Controllers, Park Rangers, Cancer Research and Social Security than a $5000 check from DOGE

#booksky Check it out.

Holy crap the Mirielle Laurant series is live. geni.us/titandebt I could not be more excited. Thanks to all the readers who have come along with me on this journey!

Oh hell no! This is wrong. Ukraine do not capitulate to tge American Dictator!

Wise man…

Crocodile tears 😭😫🥱

Donald Trump bars the Department of Defense and its schools from promoting “un-American” ideas, which it says includes diversity, equity, and inclusion, “gender ideology,” and anything that would suggest “that America’s founding documents are racist or sexist.”

Coincidence? Nope.

Smoke & mirrors! criminal charges must be brought TODAY!

I’m not saying we should all panic. But maybe the government shouldn’t shut down all the systems we have for monitoring this situation. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

I just wanna congratulate @meidastouch.com for beating Joe Rogan, and thank them for recommending my Substack. Indie media FTW! Check theirs out here: www.meidasplus.com

I'd like the congratulate the Canadian hockey team on their victory last night over the team fielded by Russia's vassal.

@democracyforward.org requested limited, expedited discovery in its lawsuit seeking to block DOGE access to sensitive Department of Labor information. If granted, plaintiffs will be able to obtain some evidence on how the agency operates within the government.

It's a power grab by the Muskrat. He doesn't want oversight or accountability for his businesses. This is the privatization of government for more profit to the oligarchs with less public services.

The party of conspiracy theories will not abide by facts, so nope. No data.

This is such a waste of legal resources! NC it's done. Allison Riggs won.

🤪😵‍💫

The Save Act is a voter suppression bill. It will, in fact disenfranchise any woman who took her husband's last name because it requires proof of birth to match register voter name! Contact your reps!!!

#FascistTrump and his shill Bondi are shouting lawfare when it is clear to one and all that it is MAGA that is spreading lies. @raskin.house.gov is fighting back by publicly calling them to account. RESIST, RESIST, RESIST bsky.app/profile/demo...

All of the new polls show POTUS sinking in his approval. Here's one

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

It's smoke and mirrors folks

Huh? 🤬

A vigilant individual used the @sandyhookpromise.bsky.social Anonymous Reporting System to flag concerns, preventing a potential mass school shooting in Indiana. This lifesaving system shows the difference that awareness & proactive reporting can make in saving lives.💚 apnews.com/press-releas...

This is good from the UK’s former Defence Minister & Army veteran, Ben Wallace. He dismantles Trump’s lies one by one, pointing out that he’s just spewing Kremlin talking points. Ukraine started the war - LIE US gives more funding than Europe - LIE Ukraine needs elections - LIE (🎥 LBC Radio)

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

Narrowing the recruiting pool by the day. Just as they want it. www.military.com/daily-news/2...

BREAKING: Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs (D) vetoes a Republican bill that would have curbed absentee voting by limiting when ballots could be returned and essentially ended the Active Early Voter List. https://azmirror.com/2025/02/18/hobbs-vetoes-republican-plan-to-end-election-day-ballot-drop-offs/

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

“Move fast and break things” may work for a tech startup, but it is no way to run our government. It will take decades for America to recover from this mindless mess.

Gack. No GMO in foods people!

Another word for "regulation" is... "consumer protection" "environmental protection" "Regulation" means your milk is safe. "Regulation" means toys that harm your babies are removed from the shelves. "Regulation" means chemical companies can't dump waste in your river.
