🚨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!

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

Feds Against Facism! Show up Monday and let them know.

Hi Bluesky! need some help. I stopped using Google maps because of the gulf of Mexico thing but I’m finding Apple Maps lacks some of the functionality. Eg it doesn’t show traffic while I have the route activated & I can’t easily pull up the written step-by-step directions. Anything better out there?

Reposting as Sagan is so prescient from 30 years ago.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’ Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls

Republicans introduced a bill to abolish the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the federal agency dedicated to protecting worker safety and health. Tesla is 4% of US auto manufacturing, yet they make up 75% of OSHA violations. I'm sure this has nothing to do with those violations

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

Why aren’t we looking into corporate welfare? In the United States, it costs taxpayers billions each year, with estimates ranging from $92 billion to $100 billion annually. Meanwhile, USAID costs only $40 billion. Hmmm… doesn’t add up.

Senate Democrats are considering voting NO or delaying every Trump nominee as retaliation for his overreach on ending USAID. Smash the RT if you SUPPORT this plan. ZERO votes from Democrats!!

Please Participate If You Can. Kindly Repost! 💙😎

This is a big story the media has ignored.
