"See if you've got an event near you. If you don't, congratulations! You are going to be the organizer for an event in your community." Indivisible's Ezra Levin anticipates a significant amount of involvement in the "No Kings" protests on June 14th. @indivisible.org @ezralevin.bsky.social

Wall Street Journal: “Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth used Signal more extensively for official Pentagon business than previously disclosed, engaging in at least a dozen separate chats, people familiar with his management practices said.”

Hats off to the Hands Off coordinators and protestors. Well done!

Glad to see Princeton's president stand up for universities even after the administration suspended their grants. "we have to be willing to speak up, and we have to be willing to say no to funding if it's going to constrain our ability to pursue the truth.” www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2025...

“The truth is that a tattoo identifying Tren de Aragua does not exist,” she told me. “Tren de Aragua does not use any tattoos as a form of gang identification; no Venezuelan gang does.”

Pure evil!

🧪 Meet Lise Meitner: The nuclear physicist who explained atomic fission in 1939, revolutionizing science. Despite her groundbreaking work, her male colleague Otto Hahn received the 1944 Nobel Prize while she was excluded. #womenshistorymonth #STEM

Now I may just be a poor country lawyer, but where I come from, "collateral arrest" means "false imprisonment."

'This is a big problem': Senate Intel Dem torches Trump who calls leaked group war chat 'no problem' youtu.be/pa5LwtCbKac?...

Republicans: after years of whining about dark-money billionaires puppeteering our political system, what do you have to say about Elon Musk buying the Presidency - and now the Wisconsin Supreme Court?

“Denmark is not being a good ally” because they just won’t turn over their land? Tough words from Vice President Maybelline

“I’m doing good things,” I tell myself as I delete the military service of a dead woman. “I’m still a good person.”

Our seniors aren’t the fraud. This out of touch billionaire is.

Here’s an idea: what if we let women rule the USA for the next 50 years and see how it goes? I mean, men have ruled for 250 and it isn’t going so well. Just an experiment, but it couldn’t be any worse?

Susan Collins has been in Washington for too long. VOTE HER OUT!

Does he really need a clue or is he just a hateful man who does not care.

What the fuck are these idiots afraid of? America is at its best when it acknowledges its historical flaws, its present day problems and works to fix them. We’ve done this before. The nation - and the children of the country - must know our complete history if we are to build a better future.

Ask yourself: Why would anyone who wasn’t an asset of the Russian government do this? Why would any decent human being do this?

HMMM: So the administration reveals in a new court filing (ordered by Judge Bates) that Amy Gleason was actually hired by HHS as an "expert/consultant" on March 4, just a few days after the White House identified her as the administrator of DOGE.

How much longer til America is great?

Bluesky watching the shitshow on twitter.

@aoc.bsky.social: "Tax cuts cost money. We have to pay for them. So every dollar that you spend in federal taxes is going to pay for some rich person's G-Wagon. And it's also going to cut an 8-year-old kid with autism's ability to access Medicaid. That's what they are putting on the table."

Thinking today of all the women in my life who are sisters, friends, mentors, neighbors, colleagues, leaders, inspirations all, and how grateful I am for them. Proud to be a woman. Happy International Women's Day!
