Representative Zooey Zephyr, tells every new legislator she meets, “One day someone will ask you to do the wrong thing for the right reason. Don’t. It just makes it easier to do the wrong thing.”

Grow a spine, Hick, or resign.

Colorado Senators Bennet and Hickenlooper must repair their preemptive compliance. The people of CO did NOT vote for you to do this. You're a disgrace. And we will not make that mistake again. Demand that our electeds stop complying: come for one of us, you come for all of us. Have spines or resign

The CDC has an ultra-competitive 2-year program to train "the best of the best" to lead public health labs. Most of the current class were terminated over the weekend. www.science.org/content/arti... (by @meredithwadman.bsky.social)

We will be back in court on Monday to defend this essential right.

It's simple: Discussions about trans youth's health care belong between them, their families, and their doctors. Not the government.

This is not normal

As Chase Strangio, our co-director of our LGBTQ and HIV project, shared at our town hall, President Trump is threatening to defund medical providers to prevent them from providing gender-affirming care to trans people under 19. So we'll see him in court.

We read Project 2025. We spent the last year preparing for this moment. We're fighting back.

Call 'em (your reps) if ya got 'em (you do... For now). This moment takes courage. - MN AG Keith Ellison Join people power. ACLU.org/doge

Trump now seizing the USPS. The USPS board has retained counsel to fight him. Breaking a 250 year precedent. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Donald Trump's administration with a Republican Congress and Elon Musk intends to take our essential programs away. Let me be clear, that's going to affect your daily lives. Our state budget can't make up for the damage that's done if they succeed.

@philweiser.bsky.social THANK YOU for taking action to reinstate care. Protecting all Colorado's rights and access to legally protected care. The last three weeks took years off parents and mental health professionals lives. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

The US State Department is forcing all of its employees to cancel subscriptions to any Trump-unfriendly media. Including AP and Reuters, that are the most unbiased news agencies in the world.

We’re not going anywhere. What’s more, we’re expanding....stand up as Minnesota has always done: as a source of safety and care. Our commitment is unwavering and we invite you to stand with us as we forge a path forward. www.startribune.com/those-of-us-...

I am alive because of SSRIs. Millions of us are. RFK Jr. is spreading lies claiming antidepressants cause school shootings and calling people on meds addicts. This rhetoric fuels stigma and puts lives at risk. 💥 We fight to live. Read more: www.motherjones.com/politics/202... #SSRIsSaveLives

Captures it perfectly.

There are other options. Please boycott Airbnb. www.reuters.com/world/us/air...

Don’t let them tell you boycotting companies that help Trump and DOGE doesn’t work: we took Tesla stock down from $480 to $355 when people stopped buying his cars. Boycott any companies affiliated with this cruel oligarchical regime!

This is why so many Jews are skeptical of the national GOP claim of support — it rings hollow & opportunistic. Vance visits a Nazi concentration camp, lays a wreath at a statue stating “Never Again,” calls it an “unspeakable evil,” & then promptly meets with & promotes a German Nazi-aligned party.

So many men, including many liberals, told women we were overreacting.

Valor Danielle Sassoon, Acting U.S. attorney for SDNY - refuses to drop Adams charges and resigns John Keller, Acting head of DOJ Public Integrity Section - refuses and resigns Kevin Driscoll, Acting head of DOJ Criminal Division - refuses and resigns www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

The U.S. betrayal of Ukraine & Europe will go down in history as one of the greatest betrayals of democracy. The U.S. is acceding to a brutal dictatorship’s conquest of part of a democratic nation. This capitulation will do nothing but embolden Putin & other autocrats to grab land from democracies.

The National Park Service has erased trans people from the Stonewall uprising: AN UPRISING TRANS PEOPLE HELPED LEAD. There’s a reserved spot in hell for the shit stains pursuing this vile campaign to erase trans people. Trans people aren’t going anywhere. And we have their backs.

UN says 6 million could die in the coming years of HIV due to lack of treatment that was funded by the USAID 💔 So embarrassed of our country right now.

“MaYbe shE’s goiNg to be in TroUble nOw” Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start

The Manhattan US Attorney’s letter refusing to drop charges against Eric Adams is an extraordinary act of patriotism. Trump’s directive to drop these charges — reserving the right to refile them — is pure corruption. If the charges are dropped, Adams will effectively work for Trump, not New Yorkers

The irony: 13 of the top 20 states that take more federal government funds than they pay out to the government in taxes are red states that voted for Trump. These folks are starting to feel the impact of their vote back at them!

Hagan Scotten, the lead prosecutor on the federal corruption case against Mayor Eric Adams of New York City, resigned after Justice Department officials ordered the dismissal of charges he had helped bring, suggesting that only a “fool” or a “coward” would obey.

“It was so fucking stupid,” says a federal official on the receiving end of the DOGE threats to call Elon Musk. “I can’t believe this is how they’re blowing up the Constitution, with this little nerd army. God help us.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
