An addled president is shredding the Constitution to usher in white nationalism and fascism while destroying the economy and our health care, so if you’re going to write an alarmist op-ed because a mayoral candidate might open five (5) city-run grocery stores, you can kindly get bent.

Something the Mamdani win demonstrates is the extent to which the reigning cadre of ancient, establishment, centrist Dems think it’s more important to be on good terms with their GOP colleagues than it is to represent their own voters, and how thoroughly sick of this literally everyone is.

Wake up Democratic Party old guard establishment. This isn’t about New York City. This is the way the wind is blowing. Step aside for young people who this country will need over the next several decades long after you are gone. Enough with your egos and the big money interests.

"THE END OF OUR CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC AS WE KNOW IT COULD BE HAPPENING NOW"

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

The report HHS sent to congress to justify changes in vaccine recommendations for healthy non-elderly & pregnant people has all kinds of misrepresentations/errors as outlined by this report & clearly does not accurately reflect the state of the scientific literature kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊

I'd *like* to be extremely concerned about the marines being deployed to an American city and the scientific committee that determines vaccine schedules being disbanded, but I'm gonna hold off until the Distraction Knowers give the okay

Hell yeah!

Fuck everything about this dystopian hellscape. Isn’t there a moral and ethical imperative for our elected leaders to stop this administration???? I’m so tired. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

My love of reading is strongly link to this man…

At this juncture I’d like to point out: * we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing * there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world * a united approach could stop the climate crisis But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

It’s OK if you can’t keep track of all the terrible things that are happening - be assured someone somewhere is. It’s not OK if you can’t keep track of when your local elections are happening. Stay focused on what you can control.

Sen Van Hollen getting it DONE. More of this from our not-evil reps please! Really glad to see Mr. Garcia is alive.

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov

This is what standing up for your constituents looks like!

COMPARE: the results of fighting back to the results of not fighting back

Roommate: Are you excited for karaoke tonight? I angrily glare at him as I sip a mug of warm lemon water. He knows I need to rest my instrument.

New from me.👇 It does not surprise me that people are worried. I expected many to be concerned. But I did not anticipate that so many leaders across industries and professions would allow fear to silence them. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-c...

Sure wish the US Congress would be brave enough to say this

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

What else is there to say about Donald Trump’s speech last night? The lies speak for themselves. He doesn’t give a damn about you.

Worth a listen to what Al Green says after he was removed from the chamber.

The only reason to watch the Oscars

Today, Feb 28th: 1st Economic Boycott. Hit em ont the $$ Avoid: Amazon. Target. Walmart. Gas. Fast Food. After today, reduce spending at those places if u can. It's not just today if we make it a long term downtrend for them. Support small businesses if you need anything. Use cash. Shop local.

Spread the word

My favorite part of #GladiatorII is that no one has Instagram face. I’m LIVING for Paul Mescal’s subtle little bunny teeth.

An important historical note — that USAID helped end Apartheid — sheds new light on Elon’s relentless and soulless attack on USAID. During Apartheid, Black South Africans were robbed of human rights and political power. 1/2 www.thealtmedia.com/p/musks-sout...

These DOGE guys' phone numbers & addresses are easy to find, in case anyone wants to file a FOIA request for all their communications (including those on any personal devices used to conduct government business), or serve them with evidence preservation demand letters in anticipation of litigation

Take heart, fellow humans
