This isn’t legal, Elon. Musk steps up calls to impeach judges, offering $100 to voters who join in. America PAC is paying registered Wisconsin voters to sign its petition against “activist judges.” Talk about paid protesters. Now, judges are receiving violent threats online.

Anyone else reminded today of Hamilton when he sold out New York in choice of the nation's capitol to Jefferson and Madison's choice of DC because it gave him power over the banks? Yeah, me too.

Don’t forget, there is a lunar eclipse tonight for the majority of North America. If you’ve never seen one I highly recommend setting an alarm and making an effort to watch. You don’t need anything fancy, you just get to see a big red moon in the sky! science.nasa.gov/solar-system...

We have to talk about the absolutely insane CR the GOP has proposed. This bill formally abdicates Congressional authority over the budget and allows the Executive to sequester funds for any reason or no reason at all.

Senator Mark Kelly is a combat fighter pilot and Navy captain who bravely served his country. Elon Musk is a multi-billionaire trying to dismantle the VA who called Kelly, a veteran who put his life on the line, a “traitor.” Disgusting.

The consistency Randall Munroe has shown publishing xkcd 3 times a week for 20 years blows my mind. I know there are people who have done more for longer, but I’ve been reading xkcd since almost the beginning and the topics are close to home for me. Hits different.

Be kind to a someone today. Everyone is walking around scared. Some are right on the edge and others push it to their unconscious but no one is immune. This plane has all the makings of hell but it can be the opposite when we connect with each other

NEW: The murders of two people outside an LGBTQ+ bar at first looked like the act of a lone shooter. A ProPublica and @frontlinepbs.bsky.social investigation shows they were, in fact, the culmination of a coordinated, international recruiting effort by online extremists.

I get a bit annoyed about this but people put so much pressure on women with larger platforms to speak up on virtually everything and then go and snitch tag the most violent misogynists in the comments of our posts when we do, like do you want us to be murdered? Is that the end game?

👏 THIS is the energy we want to see during next week's congressional recess! If your representative or senator is avoiding accountability by refusing to have a town hall, host one yourself and put them on blast. We've put together a detailed toolkit to help make it happen: indivisible.org/musk...

🚨 Trump just signed an executive order to create a U.S. sovereign wealth fund—without surplus revenue to finance it. Experts warn this could mean selling off America’s public lands to the highest bidder. Our national treasures are NOT for sale. Call your reps & fight back! #ProtectPublicLands

"More blood" the far-left screams as the streets are already flooded. Friendly reminder: Putin would probably just LOVE an Uncivil War in the US right now to avoid a ground battle and keep us distracted from the current smash & grab.
