Soul mates.. 😊

Emmanuelle says good morning…

The Trump regime wants us to be intimidated, but @aoc.bsky.social shows we can stand up to them.

Protests are taking place all over the country tonight against cuts to vital federal services. Here in Washington, people are marching to SpaceX’s offices demanding Musk be ousted from the government.

Want to learn more about the General Strike? Here’s our Welcome Packet. We’re so happy you’re here! #USprotests docs.google.com/presentation...

We spent hundreds of hours searching for the right information. We burned a lot of brain cells to organize it into a system. We have been working hard for more than six months to give you the most complete picture: Who in the U.S. Opposes Aid to Ukraine? #NAFO #UkrainianView

We have over 30 #TeslaTakedown protest events planned for this weekend. Join one or create one in your city at Teslatakedown.com!

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

Over on X, simple tweets by my colleague Greg Bluestein of the Atlanta Journal Constitution have been blocked. They were nothing but video of a town hall held by Rep. Rich McCormick R-GA where he was asked questions about DOGE

Putting a face to what you read in the news. Until last Friday, I served our nation working as a Research Ecologist with the US Geological Survey (USGS). As a federal scientist, I provided robust, defensible information to support good decisions in natural resource management.

Whomp! Whomp!

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Just got out of jail. Only forty four left to go to catch John Lewis’s record. Remember - peaceful civil disobedience. Don’t comply in advance.

I literally said this was what MAGA stood for last night

More video of the #TeslaTakedown SF! Another is scheduled for this weekend. Keep it going!

An X account, operated by ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, and first created in 2012, has posted hateful, xenophobic, and pro-fascist content. The Observer linked Rodden to the account through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

Calling yourself a king doesn’t make you a king. Dying at the dinner table because your royal food taster had built up a tolerance to iocaine does.

Fúck you elon, you criminal enterprise sycophant, lick Putins dick lately? #EndTheBroligarchy #GopPartyOfPutin #FúckTrump

In light of airlines suing USDOT to (*checks notes*) continue breaking wheelchairs and putting disabled people at risk without consequences, here's a 2023 video I filmed with Vice that shows the hell that is flying as a wheelchair user (Spoiler: my wheelchair was broken.) youtu.be/MRntgEiTHIY?...

GENERALS STARTING TO SPEAK UP

Seen in Brooklyn this AM: an egged cybertruck with a bag of dogshit and also unbagged dogshit

Why did the baby seal cross the road? It's not a riddle for this Connecticut city www.npr.org/2025/02/18/n...

Trump/Musk are the stupidest people on earth.
