#2 is definitely why people were salty at the tepid senator response to early dge goon squad nonsense. Actually arresting or laying hands on congress critters would have been huge!

Finished week 7 of the Montana legislature and honestly, it was pretty good overall. - Dems blocked a school voucher scam program - A Republican voted NO on an anti-trans bill (a first this session in the House) - Medicaid expansion is on track to pass the senate - We got some great court wins

Please don't let the reporting about the Pentagon purge focus solely on DEI/Joint Chiefs. Firing the service TJAGs - the top lawyers for Army, Navy, USAF/Space Force - is incredibly consequential. A little context🧵on why.

Sometimes I get invited to speak in corporate/industry spaces & I always give them a chance to check out my stuff in advance to make really sure they're meaning to ask me, & sometimes they still say yes so then I go tell them that to get anything like "ethical AI" every value in "AI" has to change

This is key to understanding the building outrage & backlash that extends way beyond the hurt of those fired. Firing people for no reason is brutal & loathsome but the even larger overall offense is wiping out all the fired people’s jobs with them, all the purposes & needs & value those jobs serve.

I’m getting the sense that town halls are not going well for Republicans. Trump booed today. Duffy booed today. This is good.

A new @reuters.com poll finds Americans have a dim view of many of the Trump administration's blizzard of executive actions, including the Jan. 6 pardons and his effort to limit birthright citizenship. But they really don't like the Gulf of America thing. www.reuters.com/world/us/ame...

Go harder. Be more feminist, more Black, more gay, more queer. Ramp it up. Conform even less. Diversify and include with even more gusto. And do not fear. Because these are the death throes of a dying age.

I am pleased to announce that Whitman-Walker has returned a trans care resource, now under “primary care.” I am told the decision was to update today and that it is a case of bad timing, but also confirmed the reason why it was removed was fear of the Trump admin. Still. I am very happy it’s back.

This thread is full of good advice. When I say "do more" to legislators, I do it because they can afford to be arrested or threatened with arrest and make a big stink about it that media is likely to cover, getting the general public's eyes and minds on the issues. Your arrest won't do that.

This is going to get bad. Trump has fired top military leaders and military lawyers. This means only one thing. He wants only loyalists to do whatever he wants with the military. Only the American people can stop Trump and Musk.

Gift link. The actual story of the shackled people being deported without even being told where they were being taken — maybe to countries where they’d face torture or death — while their terrified children cried.😢 The White House posted that pic with “ASMR” tag. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w...

This is quite significant in many ways: the overt thuggery, Trump’s barely suppressed fury at being contradicted by a woman, the governor’s standing up, the total abandonment of the pretense of federalism, the continuing use of trans Americans the way Hitler used Jews.

another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

via an FB friend: 1 in 5 children infected with measles end up in hospital, often with pneumonia and can suffer complications such as deafness, blindness, or brain damage. No parent wants to see their child end up in hospital. Protect your child by making sure their vaccinations are up to date.
