Marco Rubio's collaboration with Russia's Sergei Lavrov and Putin is one of the most disgusting acts of betrayal to democracy and our nation. Rubio has secured his place in history of infamy.

Of all the humiliated and debased neo-cons I reserve special contempt for Rubio, because it's so clear that he despises Trump and all the MAGA bullshit he's made himself an accessory to over the years. A truly pathetic case study in cowardice.

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community. No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality. Hate has no home here.

This is hilarious. I especially like the annexation of Green Bay and the mystery Mississippi River announcement.

If you’re a federal employee, you should know this is a lie. Congress hasn’t appropriated these monies and so it’s literally not there to be spent. Also, federal agencies are limited by law to a max $25K payout in the case of restructuring.

Regenerative farmers can be sane, scientifically literate, Black, Indigenous, non-religious, non-crunchy, non-alt-right, feminist, accepting of plant based diets, urban born, and a heterosexual male, all at the same time. Retweet this and/or follow me to see what that looks like.

Mike Johnson wants to form a committee to investigate January 6th (again) It is imperative that Democrats on the committee call every prosecutor who Trump just fired as witnesses.

Absolutely. They must fight this to the fullest extent. And…”flunkies” is exactly right.

A big misconception about Greenland is that since it’s labeled a Danish colony, its residents are just a bunch of white dudes named Kristian—which is extremely harmful and inaccurate. The population is 85% Indigenous! It belongs to the Kalaallit people, not to Denmark and CERTAINLY not to the U.S.

It’s Friday night. Turn off the news this weekend. Avoid politics. Have dinner with friends and family. Play board games. Go for a nice walk. Watch a romcom. Eat food that’s bad for you and terribly delicious. Ban nonsense from your weekend. Friendly advice. 💜

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge). You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant no matter what the ICE officer says.

The story behind ProPublica’s new Private School Demographics database began with our need to understand how many “segregation academies” still operate — and where. By @jenniferberryhawes.bsky.social
