Man needs nature, nature does not need man. Man is part of nature, he is not superior to it. Only when we understand this will we have a chance of survival.

Jack Abramoff merely perfected the art form of influence peddling that democracy's structure encourages. Without extracting money's poison from politics, we face an endless procession of bipartisan crooks. Campaign finance reform isn't liberal fantasy but domestic necessity.

Every thing you do, no matter how small, to remind people that the wannabe dictators are actually sad, scared, fallible little boys is helpful. The more we laugh at them, the less fearsome they are and the easier it is to wrest power back from them. Also? These messages are effing hilarious.

As new travel advisories against coming to the USA keep getting issued… Even if your country doesn’t have a travel warning against U.S. travel: Seriously - don’t come here. It’s DANGEROUS!!! I even suspect citizens may be in danger on re-entry (especially if they are critical of the regime).

Trump seeks to destroy public service unions. Your right to join co-workers & negotiate pay, benefits, retirement & working conditions may disappear. #StopTheCoup

I’m so scared. Reading this I watched my two cats turn towards each other and start grooming and cuddling and I can’t stop crying. We are the only ones who can save us and I’m frozen in bed. I’m fine. I’ll get up. But I don’t know who I am in the face of all this.

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night. So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

They grow where no one expects them. They fear neither the wind nor the rain, neither the cold nor the indifference of the world. They do not complain about poor soil or a stingy sky. They take what is there - and make something beautiful out of it.

My family got these payments when my dad died at 34 years old after serving in the Navy for a decade from what he had paid in. I was five. Jeanine is an incurious ignoramus. Thanks @jessicatarlov.bsky.social for correcting her, which is God’s work.

This is the correct response for every university to take with the Trump administration, as the latest demand of a consent decree on Columbia demonstrates. They intend to kill you anyway. Do not cooperate.

If Trump gets away with destroying Due Process for Kilmar Garcia, he’ll think he can sweep anyone off the street and ship them to a prison in an authoritarian state to escape our Constitution. We must heed the Supreme Court and get him back.

“Remember his name,” the wife of Kilmar Abrego García tells the world. The Supreme Court has ordered the Trump regime to "facilitate" the return to the United States of Kilmar Armando Abrego García, the Maryland man whom the U.S. government abducted and sent to a hell-hole, torture-laden…

Our women are being arrested for miscarrying a pregnancy. Did you ever think that in 2025, in America that this headline would exist? It keeps getting worse under Republican controlled government. You can judge a country by how they treat their women. #DemVoice1 www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

We can’t become what we oppose. I found a post about Trump’s trade wars that I wanted to believe, but it doesn’t appear to be true. As tempting as it is, we must do our due diligence & not fall into spreading misinfo. We are better than MAGA. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Amid all the important national news coverage, I’m proud to collaborate with @veritenews.org’s @richardawebster.bsky.social, whose running investigation into Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry’s criminal justice policies dives into the new use of an algorithm that bars thousands of prisoners from parole.
