“I want our elected democratic officials to start engaging in civil disobedience,” Chris Kluwe “Right now, no one is willing to step up and do that. So, if I want to ask them to do it, then I have to be willing to do it too.” Thank you @chriswarcraft.bsky.social

Not sure why some folks are saying we’re getting “close” to a constitutional crisis. The crisis began when the entire legislative branch, ie the Republican-controlled House & Senate, gave up their power so they can do Trump’s bidding. That, my friends, is a constitutional COLLAPSE.

Remember: The fundamental issue isn’t the size of the government or how to make government more “efficient.” It’s who our government is for. Should it work mainly for big corporations and billionaires, including the richest person in the world — or for the rest of us?

If you oppose Trump but still watch the Super Bowl, rethink that. He’s attending, teams & sponsors have issues, some players too, and the stadium? Likely built with taxpayer money after displacing marginalized communities. Boycott it—don’t ignore the bigger picture.

To America’s 2.3 million federal employees: Don’t accept a buyout. Neither Musk nor even Trump has the legal authority to make such an offer. And even if they did, would you trust them to follow through on it? Sincerely, Robert Reich Former U.S.Secretary of Labor

There has never been a better time to go out of your way to make an extra effort to shop at family-owned small businesses buying local products whenever possible, avoiding chains, online behemoths, and big corporations whenever you are able.

The insanity of being a fire ecologist in the epicenter of a major fire event, bags packed and ready to evacuate, watching active fire from my window, while taking media requests and explaining to the public, for the 100,000th time how climate change is largely responsible for this

Must-read @alexsteffen.bsky.social on why Trump loves the climate chaos: "The Trump crowd has already shown they don’t see acceleration of the climate chaos as a problem—they see it as an opportunity."

The handwringing lectures about how the left has no choice but to stay on Twitter are even more ridiculous when you remember that the far right used a series of alternative media — from direct mail to talk radio to Fox News to Breitbart to Gab, Parler and Truth Social — as their path to victory.
