NO. Democrats must NOT negotiate with republicans to fund what Trump is doing. We should WEILD the power of the slim majority to DEMAND individual agency funding bills. There is NO REASON to allow the GOP to fund the dismantling of our government. Make THEM fund it properly or make THEM shut it down

I wanted to come back home this week, ready and raring to do my part and resist, but I've been so sick I've barely been able to take care of myself, let alone pay attention to the news

The WHITE HOUSE has found a workaround to block NIH-backed medical research even after judges ordered them to allow it to go forward. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/white...

I’ve been warning that the Tech Bros want the S.F. Presidio for a “freedom city”. Now this. 👇 1/

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

We’re coming together for an ALL HANDS ON DECK National Organizing Call to support one of our chances to take on Trump- two special elections for congressional seats in FL. Join us on Monday, Feb 24th at 7:30pm! www.mobilize.us/floridadems/...

“There’s too much going on. It’s overwhelming.” If that sounds familiar, this piece is for you. Jay Kuo breaks up Donald's latest power plays into three categories: bad, worse, and worst. It may sound heavy, but understanding them makes it easier to stay informed without feeling buried.

Call the US government today, flood the lines and apply maximum pressure. Demand they do their jobs, arrest Musk, and impeach Trump. 5 minutes, 5 calls, repeat. #3E

Hey, look, here’s @chriswarcraft.bsky.social out there walking the walk www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/f...

My weekend priority is the Protest on Monday (there are some Sunday too— check out what is close). I am not good at making signs. ASKING FOR HELP— please reply with protest sign ideas. #Resist #Rebel #Protest

In addition to being civic degenerates these people are in every case infantile, sloppy and incompetent. Grand flourishes of performative cruelty followed by entitled pleas of "I don't know how to do this. Can you help?"

Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it: www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: I’ll say this again: download all your SF-50s, performance evals, and your eOPF. Now. Print hard copies. And make sure you file an informal grievance with your supervisor within 15 days of any adverse action. Here is a template: www.muellershewrote.com/p/informal-g...

A federal judge ordered the administration of US President Donald Trump to restore funding for hundreds of foreign aid contractors who argued that they were negatively impacted by a 90-day blanket freeze, a court filing showed reut.rs/42TA1Bq

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

I rode the back of the bus. I buried Dr. King. You want me to participate in your little hate-a-thon against some other group? Kindly kiss my black ass.

I’m sure most Senators understand the danger in confirming RFK Jr. But here's the thing: conscience is a muscle. Courage is a muscle. The less you use them, the more they fade away. If you do not draw a line somewhere, you will cross every line you could ever imagine.

Over the years I've had more than one person decide I wasn't saying enough about a particular topic and hold that against me, which is their privilege but also not something that's going change my mind. Some things I deal with online, some offline, and some things I leave entirely alone. I choose.

Beyond the “right to repair” we need a consumer “right to refuse” changes to the product that degrade the user experience post-purchase.

If you needed something positive today, here it is.

While I was having my digestive system looked at from the inside, here's what Democrats were doing:

There is literally HIV being transmitted from mom to baby because of the illegal shutdown of US AID and now Trump’s State Department wants to spend 400 million dollars on Tesla cyber trucks. This is not about efficiency. It’s a smash and grab.

BREAKING: NIH admits funding freeze is illegal, will resume issuing grants open.substack.com/pub/populari...

From @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social. "If you’re always consumed by the next outrage, you can’t look closely at the last one. The impression of Trump’s power remains; the fact that he keeps stepping on rakes is missed. The projection of strength obscures the reality of weakness. Don’t believe him."

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons: -We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. -The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous. 🧵⬇️

NYT and WaPo place big stories on Musk’s successful effort to de-regulate his business — and himself.

So much Freedom Fries energy.

Let’s talk about today’s rally with Sen. @warren.senate.gov and Rep. Waters. The CFPB is a critical federal agency created in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis. Its mission is to protect consumers from predatory practices with mortgage lending, credit cards, payday loans, and student loans.

As others have said, the greatest transfer of wealth in US history will not be from the Boomers to their children but from them to the US healthcare system. The US is designed to make people insolvent and to keep them poor once they're there.

A) What a bunch of bootlickers. B) That is not even what the Executive Order designated. So, wrong on both counts.

For all the people that do not knwo his work, here are the lyrics for his full half time show. It's subversive, brilliant, timely, and masterful. genius.com/Kendrick-lam...

This is a sophisticated and entirely accurate analysis. It seems like a minor thing (who cares about a boring letter?), but @joshtpm.bsky.social uses it to clearly explain the current political moment we're in. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/how-i...

Here’s some amazing NIH-funded research: it aims to figure out how particulates in the air affect our lungs. That’s very important in an era of increasing smoke from forest fires. 🧪 #scicomm

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

AOC: The House is governed by a Republican majority. The Senate is governed by a Republican majority, and The White House has a Republican president. And if they want to pass their agenda, Republicans need to conjure up the votes to pass their own bills.

Soooo I've seen so many awesome version of it! Yall did such a great job! Here's my humble contribution 🤭 #galeofwaterdeep #galedekarios #myart

From Sen. Jamie Pedersen: "HB 1584 is one of many bills introduced by House Republicans that are likely to die without a public hearing in the House committee process. I agree that it is a terrible idea. In the unlikely event that it were to pass out of the House, I would certainly oppose it."

The most sober, respected, you could fairly say establishment normie academic experts are saying it as loudly and plainly as they can: the Constitution is collapsing right now unlike anything in American history.

WARNING EVERYONE. BLUESKY IS TEAMING UP WITH A LARGE AI COMPANY. MAKE YOUR DISPLEASURE KNOWN. THEY ARE GOING TO TRY TO GO THE WAY OF TWITTER. GIVE THEM ZERO REST.
