Red staters fighting back. And it's making a difference. 👇

In case you live in a red state and feel like your voice doesn't matter--it does. Keep the pressure on.

The student who ripped this sign down did more for trans people than most of our politicians.

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

"Trump may have been involved in an unparalleled and inexplicable pact with the US government to remain above the law, one that was likely buffered by criminal actors and hostile foreign states." On his missing taxes, from my book HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT: bookshop.org/p/books/hidi...

Bad messaging: We need to educate our constituents so they know we don't have any power. Good messaging: We will do everything possible to protect our constituents and democracy, we hear their concerns, and we're going to tell them daily how they can help us oppose autocracy.

"Our boy can become president of the USA and we can engineer it. I will get all of Putin's team to buy in on this." -- email from Felix Sater to Michael Cohen about Donald Trump in 2015 -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020) hidinginplainsightbook.com

Hunter Schafer announced in an 8+ min video that her new passport misgenders her, presumably because of Trump's announcement that the US govt only recognize gender as assigned at birth. she (rightly) connects it to fascist history, like Nazis burning the Institute of Sexology in 1933 @teenvogue.com

Here’s what Democrats did today (February 21):

The Republican budget would cut $230 billion from food assistance programs like SNAP—hurting parents, seniors, & kids who rely on these benefits.   No child in America should go hungry while billionaires get tax breaks. @HouseDemocrats will fight back against this #RepublicanRipOff.

We needed this update and i'm glad it came from pcc/ricci

Flip the House and Senate Blue in 2026!

🚨 URGENT! 🚨 The White House is expected to issue an order today to dismantle the Postal Service. This cannot stand. Speaker Mike Johnson must take action NOW. 📞 Call 202 224-3121 and tell him HELL NO to dismantling the Postal Service. #FightLikeHell

#TheatreSky Day 3

AOC is showing what resistance looks like; Schumer, Hochul, and the rest of D leadership not so much. www.publicnotice.co/p/aoc-homan-...

@agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov Great job on @ktla.com just now. Thank you for explaining in a clear, non-inflammatory manner the harm that Musk/Trump is inflicting on Californians and the actions you are taking to protect us and the rule of law/Constitution. Perhaps you could do a regular briefing?

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

...when you've lost the Post...

Senate Republicans just *BLOCKED* Sen. Ossoff’s amendment to protect children’s and maternal health care through Medicaid.

this is such a great idea 👇👇👇

Put this on blast.

Did the @nytimes.com really quote the mf-ing communications director of the Houston YOUNG REPUBLICANS as if he were just some random young Black person who likes Trump? Cause it sure looks like it.

COMPLICIT! saying it louder for the people in the back.

More of this. The fuck are you doing promoting a book when the country is falling apart?

Didn’t know you were on Bluesky. Respect. Let’s chat.

⏰ UPDATE: Our Instagram Live will now start at 4:15pm PT / 6:15pm CT

For the record, I agree that Elon Musk is a dick. Ed Martin also seems like a dick. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I yield the floor.

During WWII, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived. His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. Slava Ukraine! Heroyam Slava! 💙💛

BREAKING: The Trump administration has announced that it will kill Medicare coverage of most telehealth services on April 1st.

Please, for the love of GOD, if you are over 65 and you live in states with GOP reps please call them. Tell your friends who are over 65 to please call their reps. If you have family members who are over 65 please call your reps.

Do not let Andrew Cuomo slide into the Mayorship of New York. It could easily happen.
