It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Worst. Episode. EVER.

Stilles Gedenken und laute Mahnung #KeinVergessen Sophie Scholl, geb. 9.Mai 1921 Hans Scholl, geb. 22.Sep. 1918 Christoph Probst, geb. 6.Nov. 1919, Vater dreier Kinder, geb.1940+1941+1943 Ermordet heute vor 82 Jahren am 22.Februar 1943 #NieWiederIstJetzt #WeisseRose

General Charles Q. Brown Jr., Faithfully and Honorably served the Constitution and The People of the US for 41-years in the USAF. His last posting was as the 21st Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was unjustly fired by the dangerously unqualified SECDEF. I proudly stand with Gen. Brown.

This is how it’s done.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

Team Canada wins in overtime, and l’ve never been delighted with a hockey win before, ever.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

Da der Staat die Verfassungswidrigkeit der AfD nicht prüfen möchte, übernimmt das jetzt die Zivilgesellschaft! Auf der #rp25 stellen @bijanmoini.de (@freiheitsrechte.org) & @laschyk.volksverpetzer.de (@volksverpetzer.de) erste Erkenntnisse vor ➡️ re-publica.com/de/news/bija... #GenXYZ

awwwww shit y'all, the flight attendants have entered the chat 🤘🤘🤘

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.

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

AfD ist die Partei, die Deutschland zu lieben vorgibt und den Landesnamen nicht schreiben kann.

RFK being an addict isn’t the issue — no one better understands drug misuse than a former user. RFK being a fanatical pro-life, queerphobic, mental illness-denying anti-vaxxer, ‘nutrition huckster’ and conspiracy theorist is the issue. www.motherjones.com/politics/202... @annamerlan.bsky.social

Knowledge is power…

Und zwar nicht immer noch, sondern schon wieder. 2021 fehlten "nur" 7000 Schuss, dieses Mal sind es fast 190.000 Schuss Munition. Und niemanden interessiert es.

I’m in Munich and people keep asking me to decode Vance’s speech. OK: In Vance English “free speech” means “Let Musk run your elections” and “democracy” means “let Russia run your elections.” Now move on. 2025 is about what Europeans do, not what Americans say.

Eine wichtige mahnende Stimme aus Dresden für Menschenwürde und Freiheit ist verstummt. "Nie sei die Demokratie so bedroht wie derzeit durch die AfD," schrieb #GerhartBaum 2023 in der ZEIT. Er forderte: "Die Deutschen müssen um ihre freie Gesellschaft kämpfen." 🕯 RIP, Gerhart Baum
