🖋️ “Protect our privacy! Stop DOGE's access to our personal info!” hit 100 signers!

Oh nothing, the kid who Elon allowed to access our sensitive information was a eugenicist who "was racist before it was cool."

Trump and the GOP just gutted a major Catholic charity but apparently it’s liberals and Democrats who are anti-Christian and anti-Church

We are in the midst of an administrative coup the like of which we have never seen - or even imagined - in our lifetimes. Every day brings new abuses, new scandals, which can’t just be undone or fixed. We are in a very dark place as a country and as a constitutional republic right now.

North Dakota Republicans have introduced legislation to declare themselves a Christian nationalist state by “acknowledging the Kingship of Jesus Christ.” This is a direct challenge to the Constitution.

If we’re really interested in deporting criminal immigrants, we should start with Musk. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

Meanwhile, somewhere in New Jersey… I love the Visibility Brigade. Musk raided the Treasury Musk stole your tax data Musk has your SS# Stop Musk Coup

Wyden: "Tell Elon Musk to take his hands off your money!"

Musk suspended (@anonopsse.bsky.social) after it helped expose his coup collaborators at DOGE.

Elizabeth Warren: Not one Democrat voted for Elon Musk. Not one Republican voted for Elon Musk. Not one Independent voted for Elon Musk. Not one Libertarian voted for Elon Musk. Damn, not one vegetarian voted for Elon Musk.

Elon Musk agrees that “all elections” in America are “rigged” & fake. It’s an insane position for the world’s richest man & the owner of the world’s most influential political messaging platform to hold. It’s hard to believe that he believes that. But he IS spreading this insane and dangerous lie.

Terrifyingly similar situation. apple.news/A0OgAqMRfSRO...

This morning I had to ask Google if the sun had come up yet. Is it just me, or does this winter feel darker and colder than ever, even when factoring out political events?

Zuckerberg bending both knees to Trump. The cowardice is sickening.

"There are 60,000 voters who did everything they're supposed to do, and my opponent wants their ballots to be tossed." North Carolina Supreme Court Justice Allison Riggs sat down with @marcelias.bsky.social to explain what's happening in the state Supreme Court race. Watch the full interview.

So because *other* politicians have drinking problems, somehow that's adequate justification to put one in charge of the Pentagon. Got it.

“I won youth by 30%. All Republicans lose youth. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s changing. And last time, we were down 30% with youth. This time, we’re up 35% with youth." Trump on Meet the Press today just couldn't stop lying, as usual. He lost young voters by double digits.

If only the U.S. had a court that was as concerned about/ willing to act on Russian meddling! But no. SCOTUS just cheers (and lines its pockets) as our democracy is politely handed to a madman and his psychopathic junta. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/06/w...

What now? Some insight, some hope, and some laughs. Trump’s worst enemy is standing (very close) by. Thanks, Andy! www.borowitzreport.com/p/what-happe...

Use Resistbot to quickly urge your representatives to vote no on HR 9495 today!!! “Non-profit killer” bill allows government to target orgs without evidence. A tool of intimidation that will decimate advocacy and communities most needing protection. amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

One major reason for America’s (latest) collective trauma: Important information (that greatly impacts marginalized people’s lives, no less) behind a paywall. Not cool, @oregonian.bsky.social www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

"'Con Artist,' 'Sore Loser,' 'Saudi’s Bitch': How Trump's Own Cabinet Picks Have Described Their New Boss" As I explain for Zeteo, you don’t need liberals to tell you how bad Trump is – here’s what 9 members of his own new administration-in-waiting have said (Rubio, Musk, RFK Jr., Gabbard, etc):

Everything you need to know about what’s in Project 2025 - and what’s coming from Trump Term 2 - in two minutes flat.

Being a woman just got so much less safe. (Not that it’s ever been safe.) Trump is a walking permission structure for sadists, bullies, & abusers. Emboldened, they slither out from under overturned norms. Intimidated twice today! Fun times. Anyone else feeling more attacked than usual?

So well done! (Posted 11 days ago, when the world was SO different.) oh, the grief… and that cathartic, healing laugh, right at the end. youtu.be/YY_8WzcHqMQ?...

Prince in 1999: “There’s a war going on. The battlefield is in the mind, and the prize is the soul, so just be careful. Be very very careful.” youtube.com/shorts/rAew9...

my head is full of trouble, both real and yet to be my head is full of trouble, and it won’t let me sleep
