I am no one of any importance; my voice may be quiet, but I can stay silent no longer. The maga cult has elected a fascist wannabe dictator, in thrall to putin, funded by musk, and we must all fight back.

Today at the “Stand up for Science” demonstration at the Lincoln Memorial.

We need people! Millions of people to descend upon DC to PEACEFULLY PROTEST. MUST be peaceful b/c Krasnov Trump the orange dick-tater and his sick ilk are itching for people to become violent so they can claim SOE and then martial law. Again, we need millions of people, here's our chance!

@aoc.bsky.social: "You have a right to see your elected member of Congress... Our job is to hear from people. And if you aren't doing town halls because your own residents and members of your community are upset with what you're doing, the answer is you’ve got to own your decisions."

“the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"

That's a disgraceful reply. There was a time that I admired you. No more.

I hope your ass gets primaried, Marcy. You have clearly failed to understand that the world of politics you once lived in is dead and buried. It died on Jan 6th, 2021. Your career in politics should be buried if you don't realize that.

@repmarcykaptur.bsky.social has been in her seat since 1983. TIME TO GO!

THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU STAND WITH AL GREEN? WHY DID YOU VOTE TO CENSURE HIM? YOU ARE A COWARD AND DESERVE TO LOSE YOUR JOB!!!!

We don’t want excuses, we want action and resistance. If you’re not willing to fight for freedom of speech and democracy, we will vote you out. You have my word.

Rep Kaptur, I don't think you have a clue as to where Dems are in our fight for democracy right now! I am shocked that you and 9 other Dems voted for censure of Al Greene whose constituents are scared they will lose Medicaid! It's already in the budget! You should have walked out with him!

Oh, wow. She tried to explain it away. NOPE. Joe Wilson was wrong to call President Obama a liar. Al Green's situation is *not similar.* Hey @repmarcykaptur.bsky.social: please take that Sunday School bit out to a lake, get a boat, go to the deepest part of the lake, and dump it, ma'am. My God.

Fuck you and your mediocre attempts to pull the wool over our eyes. You are unworthy of being a Democrat. You should all be standing up and disrupting the garbage spewed by the con artists, fascists and putin-puppets rather than sitting on your asses playing nice.

For someone backed by unions Kaptur doesn't seem to understand the concept of solidarity very well.

"but the rules" lmao right now, at their own party--and Jefferies even chastized Dems that just held signs and dressed up. He might as well be paid opposition.

Silence in the face of obvious slander and fascism is cowardice. Censuring a colleague for exercising his right to free speech is complicity.

Marcy, you were the last bastion for Ohio. But you, like so many of your colleagues are cowards -— too concerned with respectability and sucking the tits of fascists. I am ashamed to have been born in Ohio, voting for you numerous times from your district. Grow a spine

Another cowardly politician trying to excuse their bullshit away. IT’S UP TO US-regular Americans whose lives are being torn apart. #UNITEANDFIGHT

@repmarcykaptur.bsky.social The fact that you think a reaction to Trump's internal coup of 2025 is comparable to Obama explaining the Affordable Care Act in 2009 shows you are no longer fit for office. You are a collaborator w/ a fascist GOP hiding behind an excuse of "decorum." Shame on you.

@repmarcykaptur.bsky.social Dudette... Your vote to censure @algreen.house.gov means you are: ⏹️ showing you support the illegal, unconstitutional Coup 2.0 thugs ⏹️ NOT showing you oppose Coup 2.0's destruction of our country's wellbeing SO👇 Get CURRENT, actually FIGHT, or GET OUT OF OHIO'S WAY!

She admits he was the only one standing up for those he represents. They just couldn't be distracted from all the info being spewed at them.

The clock is ticking down on a crucial but little-noticed part of President Trump’s first round of executive orders — the one tasking the secretaries of the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security to submit a joint report recommending “whether to invoke the Insurrection Act.”

When you tell your grandchildren you were alive when this man stood up against tyranny and fascism and his own spineless political party, be sure to tell them exactly how you supported him and helped spread his message

Despite politicians appearing in East Palestine for photo-ops, a reminder that two years later Congress has done nothing. Vice President JD Vance has gotten himself a lot of press delivering platitudes, but he never actually got anything passed.

Crockett: We had an opportunity to have a woman lead this country and I promise you, she would have led us to the promised land. But instead we got somebody that seems like he wants to take to us hell

This is the way.

Remember—we must be peaceful and civil but loud. Let your voices be heard, your presence be felt. But do it with peace. The administration will look to discredit. They will look for propaganda to silence. Don’t fall into that trap. Bring your peace and your voice. #resistance #fiftyfiftyone

The firehose that was the Age of Information has lead to the Age of Denialism. Influenced by conservative distrust of government and corporate rejection of science that conflicted with their profits our society has eroded its trust in each other and our institutions that hold it together. #Politics

Coup. Say the word. They’re not “auditing.” They’re not “investigating.” They’re overthrowing.

JD Vance got caught spreading misinformation in Munich, and @AOC had time today.

Call or email your reps to oppose illegal power grabs! Be polite, speak on what’s important to you. Calls are most impactful, but emails work too. Sen. John Husted: 202-224-3353 Sen. Bernie Moreno: 202-224-2315 Rep. Mike Turner: 202-225-6465 #KeepThePressureUp

CDC's Wild to Mild flu vaccine campaign launched in September 2023. Notably, it aimed to "reset public expectations around what a flu vaccine can do," like protecting you from serious outcomes. www.cdc.gov/flu/whats-ne... (Link active at time of post.)

You cannot fire so many people and shutter so many agencies and services and not expect things to start to go very bad very quickly. Our job is to highlight not only the chaos and cruelty of the firings, but also the devastating consequences. The public must turn on this madness and soon.

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.
