Folks are asking, “what should I do in this moment?” One of the most passionate, progressive voices in Congress for 30 years, Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden answers that question. Here’s our conversation, inside a replica of the Senate chamber at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute: youtu.be/n_nQ-Moa9fI?...

Three cheers for this 5-page letter from ~92 Congressional Dems demanding answers about IES & ed research ht: @aeraedresearch.bsky.social

Someone needs to add a gag ball to this

Brown had to go - he was serving his country while black.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Can we get Governor Mills on here? apnews.com/article/trum...

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

Take it straight from Kash’s hit list…

Please RSVP for and invite friends to the week-long Amazon boycott coming up (if you still have facebook): www.facebook.com/events/13171... As physicians, we have a LOT of buying power. And the more people we get on board, the more impact we have. #CancelAmazon #BoycottAmazon #MedSky #AcademicSky

Ilhan Omar introduced an amendment to make corporations pay their fair share. Instead, the GOP voted it down and have moved along the budget bill that would strip $880 BILLION from Medicaid. Fun fact - that's the ENTIRE budget. #HandsOffMyMedicaid

Call to Action: Protest against Trump and fascism. Los Angeles, California. February 22 at 12PM "Your voice matters" #3E #USProtest #ProtestCA #Feb22

Randoming on my favorites playlist got me feeling really good tonight. open.spotify.com/playlist/4OF...

We should all applaud Judge Ho’s appointment of former Bush SG Paul Clement to present a perspective distinct from those of the indicted NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the Trumpservient DOJ prosecutor Emil Bove. Well played! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/n...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Call to Action: civil and human rights protest. Savannah, Georgia on February 22 at 4PM. “WE BEAT 'EM BEFORE. WE’ll BEAT ‘EM AGAIN” #3E #USProtest #ProtestGA #ProtestSavannah #Feb22

Not everything is a business. Many things are services. Healthcare mental health Substance abuse services (Which why aren’t all three of the above just Healthcare?money & pathologizing the poor & marginalized) Fire protection EMS Public education Police protection Libraries The list goes on

We just won a court order stopping DOGE and unauthorized, unelected, and unvetted individuals like Elon Musk from accessing people's private data and blocking federal funds. We will keep fighting to protect all Americans from this administration’s destruction.

@newyorkstateag.bsky.social thank you for killin’ it in court for all of us!

Double ouch!!

Good Trouble!

Deer loves getting brushed..🦌😍

NEW: Trump’s DoJ Chief of Staff has filed a complaint against Judge Reyes because she bench slapped their bigoted asses into the sun three days ago.

This is how it’s done.

There’s something happening in this country.

Brad Schimel has spent his career as an extreme right-wing politician. As WI’s worst AG, he used his power to force his own dangerous agenda on Wisconsin, including fighting against reproductive freedom & access to contraception. There are options! VOTE FOR Susan Crawford, Wisconsin!

"Hochul is dithering about whether to use her powers. AOC, in contrast, exercised her 1st Amendment rights to inform her constituents about their 4th Amendment rights. In doing so, she showed that the administration is tyrannical. She also showed that it’s weak — if you’re willing to confront it."

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

Canada held a solidarity rally in support of Ukraine against the fascist Russian invasion and the unsurprising US betrayal. Scenes from Montreal. #3E #EndImpunity #EndOligarchy #StandWithUkraine

Well this is bull shit

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia has published a letter sent to him by Trump’s Department of Justice threatening to potentially prosecute him for criticizing Elon Musk.

@aoc.bsky.social @repjasmine.bsky.social Ladies …you wanna maybe run for the Presidency together at some point? 16 years of fixing all dis shizzle?

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."
