Trump’s methods at work: Reuters reports that the United States has threatened to cut off Ukraine's access to Starlink satellite internet terminals if Kyiv does not reach a deal with the U.S. regarding critical mineral resources.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Today the Senate votes on Kash Patel for our FBI Director. Call them. Leave message. (202) 224-3121. Patel is a danger to American democracy & to every American. - he aims to weaponize the FBI against journalists, government officials, nonprofit organizations, and to all freedom loving Americans.

IT’S RACIST INSANITY.

If we don’t turn up for this, the administration will think it can betray Ukraine without political backlash. Be there.

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

Please RT far and wide. Farage is a fascist pound shop Trump.

Elon Musk is very mad that people are realizing @BillKristol got $0 from USAID while Musk’s businesses got millions. Just our shadow president casually debating whiteness with his weirdo white nationalist followers. Normal!

Don’t let anyone tell you this guy is popular or that the country is trending his way. Just isn’t true. Never was.

A street artist in DC is putting up these posters all over the city. I’d love to get one.

You snooze. You win. While you were sleeping, a federal judge issued an emergency TRO: ➖ blocks DOGE from accessing Treasury systems ➖ requires DOGE to "immediately destroy" any material already downloaded Case brought by attorneys general of 19 states Added to the Litigation Tracker⬇️

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

When someone expresses genuine regret voting for Trump, the best thing we can do is welcome them into the fold. We're not gonna get anywhere with ridiculous gatekeeping and pettiness. Let's offer folks an off-ramp into the coalition of reasonable adults.

Please share! Listen to this week's Gaslit Nation on The Bibi Files as an urgent warning for America in crisis: gaslitnation.libsyn.com/hitler-youth

"BREAKING: we just blocked Musk & Trump out of the Treasury systems!" This is not accurate. Krause and Elez still having access means that Musk and Trump still have access, in some sense at least. We have no guarantees data is not actually being taken out. www.crisesnotes.com/day-seven-of...

“And it’s exploding in popularity, expanding its audience beyond anti-Trump Republicans to include swaths of people who are dismayed by the way Democrats are approaching the second Trump administration and frustrated by the way the traditional news outlets are choosing to cover him.“

VOX POPULI VOX DEI

My mood…

The universe speaks in mysterious ways.

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

Trump went from the world’s foremost expert on water management and forest fires to an aviation and crash reconstruction expert, all in one week. He’s amazing!

Google has labeled the US as a “sensitive country,” an epithet typically reserved for countries with strict governments & border disputes like China, Russia, Israel, Saudi Arabia, & Iraq. This shows how far we’ve fallen under a leadership thriving on division & chaos. www.cnbc.com/2025/01/28/g...

Excruciating to hear Govt minister try to explain how expanding airport capacity won’t increase carbon emissions & drive #ClimateCrisis. It likely won’t even increase growth either given that corporate air travel is declining & 3 times as many tourists leave the country as come in. #BBCR4Today

Thrilled this collab piece is out. This is not just a story about the awful content on MrDeepFakes, but also about the apps that the site promotes (DeepSwap) and its ties to shady Chinese companies that may be harvesting users' data.

Obama & Biden chartered the upper 2 airplanes to take immigrants who were here illegally back to their countries. For no legitimate reason & at far greater expense to US taxpayers, Trump chose to use military planes which cost far more. See photo #3
