Agreed Elon. You hurry on up there and start colonizing the locals. We will stay right here and await news of your success. You should bring Lord GolfandGrift with you to build massive gold towers in your honor.

Well that didn’t take long. Long live Joy Ann Reid!

Nice poetry 💙💛💙💛💙💛 @mavkaslavka.bsky.social 👇👇👇

Obama knew

Donald Trump replacing a black four-star general with a white three-star general as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is everything MAGA claims they hate about DEI: giving a less qualified person the job based on their race, not their resume.

A MUST-SEE‼️ The PayPal Mafia—Musk, Thiel, Sacks, and Botha—have ties to apartheid South Africa & a hand in US policy and the election. • Elon Musk – Unelected co-president, dismantling the government for his own gain. FUN FACT: His grandfather wanted to scrap democracy for technocrat rule. 🧵

💥The Netherlands' largest pension fund, has sold its shares in Tesla, Meta, and Alphabet (Google). The fund with US $569 billion equivolent in assets is "directing more money to companies and projects that help to improve society and the environment." #Divest www.reuters.com/markets/euro...

I'm dumb. I can't figure out how to end world hunger. But I do promise that I will continue to change healthcare in this country and make it more affordable, possibly setting a path towards Universal Healthcare.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Sean Duffy Booed. And rightfully so.

this message is for Gov Mills of Maine. Hi. TY. Love you. 💕⭐️

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

“Don’t tell me you reject DEI when you live in the White House built by black hands. The White House is a DEI house built by slaves who worked without the benefit of compensation.” ~Sen Raphael Warnock #Resist

Anyone have Sen. “He Assured Me He Won’t Change Vaccines” Kennedy’s BlueSky @?

We can agree that it's shameful if it comes to fruition. I dont think there is any chance it does. I don't understand why people don't believe Zelensky is as good a negotiator as Mexico or Canada. He knows you give Trump the PR win and move on

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.

The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

Worst. Episode. EVER.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

This.

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

WOW maybe I could buy 1/2 carton of eggs

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau exists to protect Americans from predatory lenders, junk fees, and fraud. Shutting it down does nothing more than give sketchy companies a free pass to prey on the public. We’re not going to let that happen.

For a US government that hates DEI, it's curious that the Secretary of State is Cuban, the FBI director is Indian, the DNI head is Samoan-Indian, and the President is South African.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory Send a message to giant companies ripping us off. On Feb 28, don’t shop on online, big box stores, no Amazon, no Walmart, no Best Buy, fast food or gas. Just 1 day will send a powerful message. Think they’ll miss our DEI dollars? Don’t spend. Let them know why.

🚨🚨🚨 HUGE NEWS IN MICHIGAN! Republican State Supreme Court Chief Justice Elizabeth Clement is STEPPING DOWN next month! That means that Gov. Gretchen Whitmer gets to replace her and shift the court from 5-2 in favor of Dems to 6-1 in favor of Dems! www.mlive.com/public-inter...

A deportation flight leaving the U.S. Thursday carrying 135 mostly Asian undocumented migrants is expected to land in Costa Rica in the afternoon. Almost half of the migrants will be children.

I hate to ask this but i have to, are we now the bad guys? adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/are-we-now...

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

Another excellent article by Ursula Faw! Thank you Ursula! politizoom.com/trump-voter-...

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

A story in two parts! Trump denouncing Ukraine & Zelensky, now. Here's the transcript of Trump congratulating President Zelensky on his election victories... and then attempting to extort him. If you want to understand the rationale behind the hate of Ukraine, its because Trump was caught criming.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Now is the time for our citizenry to fight for our federal workers and national programs. Let’s stand up to the power-mad autocrats, plutocrats and theocrats attacking democracy—at home and abroad. I spoke with @briantylercohen.bsky.social about our historic assignment today.

Democrat @gayforcongress.bsky.social is a fighter committed to finding real solutions that put people over politics Gay is ready to take on the tough fights that Washington has ignored for too long #LiveBlue #ResistanceUnited

Peace For Ukraine!🙏💙💛☮️

Dark Pence is back.

Oh, look. The House GOP Budget reflects all the evil cuts to Medicaid they said they'd do in Project 2025. Maybe take them literally and seriously.
