And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

What's the difference between firing someone "for DEI" and firing them because they are Black?

Worst. Episode. EVER.

looking back everything went to shit when Schoolhouse Rock stopped airing

"Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage." -- @govpritzker.illinois.gov

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this. Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

I'm surprised that so many people don't know this.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Absolutely

Filed in District Court today. Judge Berman Jackson making sure the record will always be reflective of what really happened that day.

The Papua New Guinea Courier is in rare form.

A pack of dumb foxes, drunk on power, are currently in charge of the safety of our henhouse.

I knew they were gong to do project 2025, I just didn’t realize that Elon and his merry band of pre-teens would be the ones implementing it.

Just RT’d this over at the Bad Place and it was like shaking a jar of red ants. #fun

President Jimmy Carter has officially won a posthumous Grammy for his narration of an audiobook of his Sunday school lessons. He is now a 4-time Grammy winner. RIP Jimmy. 💙

The universe speaks in mysterious ways.

Time to share my current historical obsession: Clarice Orsini de Medici’s EXTREMELY ILLEGAL HAT! A cool reflection on performing social class, and part of my release countdown to “Inventing the Renaissance” 1/?

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Once again, a fundamental reason why so many academics despise Trump, Vance, Musk & company is that we’ve all had our share of The Guy Who Didn’t Do The Reading But Demands to Be Heard

The story of this first week is corruption. Billionaires seated on the inaugural stage in front of the cabinet, crypto pump and dump, and the illegal firing of IGs. The media is acting like this is too chaotic and bewildering to interpret, but they are just afraid of sounding shrill. It’s corrupt.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget INSURRECTIONIST TRUMP!

The thing is, I feel like if someone truly, accidentally, & unintentionally made a n*zi salute on a national stage, they would be appropriately horrified by it and apologize. And when they don’t ….. it says everything.

On this day in 1971, Marvin Gaye released 'What's Going On.' It's not just a song; it's a poignant social commentary wrapped in soulful melodies and a timeless message still resonating today.

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside." Written right there in the Constitution. The President cannot change that with the stroke of a pen.

Permanent mood.

Hi, I’m God. I had nothing to do with saving that guy’s life or making him president.

He lit the path. Keep walking it—don’t stop now.
