This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

"Six weeks ago, we had the strongest economy, employment, and stock market in history. ..All gone in 30 days."

Proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community as an ally in the fight.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

BREAKING: The USDA has confirmed five additional dairy herds in California have tested positive for the virus, raising the total to 732. Currently, 74% of the state's dairy herds are infected with H5N1.

Love to see it!

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

nobody: me in the middle of the night

buys a new book: i can’t wait to read it. also me: puts in on the shelf with the other piles of unread books.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

You can’t speak to me EVER if the first thing you drink in the morning is soda.

Trump and his American oligarchs are now openly aligning themselves with Putin and his Russian oligarchs. This Putin-Trump alliance means abandoning our allies, supporting authoritarianism and undermining our democratic traditions.

Fuck Putin. Fuck trump. I stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇸.

Windsor ON waitress: “oh, you’re American. Is the English menu ok or would you prefer one in Russian?”

A reminder I will be providing at least once a month for all of the remaining years of my life: Months before the 2024 election, the Department of Justice announced that there were at least six hundred Russian assets inside the United States and that some...were SITTING MEMBERS OF CONGRESS.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

This is the waste that the Doge should be eliminating

This is a coup.

It's not lost on me that the two Democratic electeds talking consistently to regular people right now are AOC and Jasmine Crockett. Dassit.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

Going to be quite frank, I do not find anything about this “king” stuff to be funny in any form, don’t think there’s a place for us to just crack wise about it and pretend it’s normal, yes we are all irony-poisoned but if we don’t draw a line here then we have no line

For fux sakes! This is so sad, and pisses me off to no end. Find the mf that did this!

The Trump administration reeked of corruption, cruelty, and impunity. Abusers welcomed, power sold to the highest bidder. Now, Tate’s rape victims accuse him and plead for justice, while US officials interfere to protect him. Rot spreads when a government shields misogynists and silences the abused.

A Delta flight carrying ~80 passengers from Minnesota appears to have crash landed at Toronto Pearson Airport. No casualties reported as of this time. Numerous photos and videos have been released showing passengers safely exiting the plane, which flipped upside down. At least 8 people injured.

Unelected, Musk holds more power than anyone in the administration. He lets classified information leak, secures contracts through blackmail, and blurs the line between private wealth and state control.

Michael Steele goes off about Elon Musk and DOGE: "They've got your data, dumbass...I want somebody to show that they care enough to get off their fat ass and say something about it." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

At an elementary school at Fort Campbell in Kentucky, home of the 101st Airborne, librarians are scrubbing the shelves. They are removing books that even contain references to slavery or the civil rights movement. This is where "anti DEI" sentiment has brought us. They are whitewashing history.

Is tarring and feathering still done? Asking for 170 million+ tax filers.

History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes…
