Cancelling @joyannreid.bsky.social means the door she held open for the next generation of Black voices will slam shut. Without her, the next her, won't get platformed by white media. That, of course, is why white media pushed her out. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

(202) 224-3121 will get you to any Senator or Representative. Call them now about the latest budget fund reallocation that was voted in last night, especially if they are a repugnant. I am calling my Representative, now.

17 days till the government shuts down

Rachel Maddow called out MSNBC for getting rid of Joy Reid and Katie Phang, saying it’s “indefensible” to get rid of their non-white anchors. Bingo.

The cruelty is the point.

Whether or not the J6 choir ends performing there or not, it is time to boycott the Kennedy Center. It is now a purely political enterprise having been hijacked to support an anti-democracy, white supremacist, anti-American agenda. Attending and supporting the institution is aiding that agenda.

“If 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.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Today I subbed in a class and students read about the oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. The elementary kids are replacing American where the text reads Mexico. I had the kids read the words in the text. Will I be fired for that? Who knows. Creepy.

That’s the ticket. Show up in court, with your Bar licenses on the line, and answer a judge’s pointed and specific questions on how this deal went down.

Another career federal official has resigned after refusing to give DOGE access to sensitive data.

Emergency Video: will Congress do to itself what they are demanding of other departments? Cut congress’ budget and shrink THEIR staff now!

Judge Beryl Howell ordered the FBI to comb its records for responsive documents and to provide an update to the court by Feb. 20th. The FOIA request sought info related to classified documents at Mar-a-Lago and those “that were allegedly flushed down the toilet.” www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Action: Write House Report Dear: We are in a constitutional crisis. The president has usurped your authority, freezing the use of appropriated funds. Act now. Stop confirmations. Put holds on every Trump nominee. No more hearings or confirmation votes. You must stop this illegal transgression.

Yes, there will be retribution. But there are things we all must do starting immediately. "It is incumbent on the media, civil society groups, judges and individual citizens to adopt a presumption of skepticism when it is told that a political opponent of Trump is under an ethical or legal cloud."

Déjà vu all over again.

I had the bizarre task of explaining what a tyrant is to two classes of fifth graders. As the words were coming out of my mouth I realized I was describing trump. The word was not in their dictionary. I could see in some of the kids’ eyes that they were thinking the same thing I was.

Perfect! The exact tools needed for you to go fuck yourself!

Rally at the Treasury Bldg. Consider following Indivisible ⬇️

I am so sad.

These are the dems that voted to confirm the guy that just handed the Treasury to Musk: Blunt Rochester Booker Cantwell Coons Fetterman Gallego Gillibrand Hassan Hickenlooper Kaine Kelly King (Independent) Peters Shaheen Slotkin Warner

Education Department employees have been placed on leave for attending diversity training. Meanwhile, Republicans have introduced a bill to eliminate the Department of Education.

The Feb 5 protests have no permits pulled and may be a hoax.

FOR THOSE OF YOU LOOKING TO TURN YOUR ANGER INTO ACTION The absolute most important thing that people should be doing every day is calling. 6 CALLS A DAY: 2 each (DC office and your local office) to your 2 Senators & your 1 Representative. Calls are what all the congresspeople pay attention to.

BREAKING NEWS: The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at USAID on leave after they refused to turn over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s government-inspection teams.

MAGA: We don’t want unelected bureaucrats running the government! Also MAGA: Elon Musk is running the government now, fuck yeah!

“Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the F.B.I. and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and F.B.I. policy.” -- James E. Dennehy, NYC’s top FBI agent. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/u...

We need a group of lawyers who are willing to take every lawsuit from every fired federal employee to the max. Bury this admin in lawsuits

BREAKING: I’m hearing from several VA employees that they have been locked out of VATAS - thats how employees request leave - like administrative leave to file EEO complaints. It also shows your work schedule and OT. If this has happened to you, please reach out using the contact info in my bio.

“This is exactly the work we set out to do,” Paul Dans, who oversaw Project 2025 at the conservative Heritage Foundation, told CNN. Every journalist that ran with Trump's denials about Project 2025, that indulged them, that pretended it was a liberal conspiracy.... should hang their heads in shame.

They're not fooling anyone.

FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA. There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.

FACTS.

You gotta love Tim Kaine. Tellin' it like it is...

Costco pharmacy is selling single dose levonorgestrel emergency contraception ("morning after pill") for $5.99 per dose. This is a product with a fairly long shelf life and they don't seem to mind selling it to people who clearly don't need it. No prescription needed.
