When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

I wrote about how Doge is involved in cutting cancer research www.vanityfair.com/news/story/d...

It's a coup.

The Resistance is strong! #Resist

In December, the @nytimes reported a blockbuster scoop: Elon Musk and his SpaceX company had repeatedly failed to meet federal reporting requirements designed to safeguard national security despite being deeply entangled with the military and intelligence bureaucracy. newrepublic.com/article/1913...

Outrageous.

This article gives an excellent overview of the impact on universities and US research will be if the announced cuts to NIH indirect cost rates hold. Not good www.forbes.com/sites/brucel...

Maxwell Frost is 💯 right. The real enemy is corruption, fascism, greed, & big money rigging the system, *not* each other. We must unite, not divide. Bring kindness back to BlueSky, focus on the fight ahead, and stand together against fascism. The stakes are too high for infighting.

1/6 The GOP didn’t win in 2024 by getting more votes. They won by disqualifying more votes. Millions of Democratic ballots were purged, tossed, or blocked before they were even counted. The numbers are staggering. Let’s on the real threat. 🧵 #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

@msnbc.com why aren’t you at the Department of education with your cameras?

Do you have a bank/retirement account, investments? Call the financial institution. Ask how they keep your assets safe with access to all personal information controlled by an illegal group of private citizens. Demand they take action - lobby Congress, talk to actual officials at the Treasury, etc.

Joining @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com NOW to talk about our case to stop Elon Musk access to Treasury systems We will block him out Join us!

🚨 URGENT 🚨 Take a few minutes to read this and send an email.

We currently have the least respected president in the history of our country: not just by the opposing party, but by the rest of the world and, it seems clear, his own party. (Thread)

🚨 Important Read 👇 IT’S A COUP! bsky.app/profile/timo...

Clear-eyed, direct NYT op-ed by @jamellebouie.net using the kind of non-euphemistic language the headlines should embrace:

Fire Elon Musk. Use every legislative, judicial, and public pressure tactic at our disposal until we get it done.

Trump & Musk hostile takeover to dismantle the government is Project 2025 by The Heritage Foundation. Coupled with Putin's decades of planning to do the same. Trump is responsible for this treasonous chaos against our allies and upheaval to our country. Stop him! #ImpeachTrumpNow

Democrats, stop the Russell Vought vote or feel our wrath. Deny quorum. Do whatever is needed. YOU WORK FOR US. Not the other way for around.

Very important from @alisonmgill.bsky.social: All federal employees need to understand the grievance process if you’re placed on administrative leave other otherwise targeted by the administration. There is a limited window for you to act, so please read this great guidance about how to proceed.

We’re gonna need either a real press corps or a real opposition party and we’re gonna need it fast.

A confession?

ICE is planning immigration raids starting Tuesday. Please amplify.

Here is the list of names of the 44 Republicans who voted against HR 10545 which provided forest management and wildfire prevention funding in December. Every single one of them talking smack about the wildfire response in California need to sit TF down.

Chapter 13 “On Tyranny” @timothysnyder.bsky.social discusses the need to get outside, from behind screens, meet publicly with people of diverse backgrounds, to compromise. Joining together, great changes can occur & messages sent to those in power. Poland & Solidarity. Mississippi & Freedom Riders

Taylor Swift- $10 million Selena Gomez- $5 million Beyoncé- $2.5 million The richest man in the WORLD- $0

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

Well would you look at that.
