BuT wHAt CoUld DemOCRats do???

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.

What I’m noticing is that it’s only been women who are brave enough to stand up to Trump to his face like Maine’s Gov Jane Mills and Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde.

In case anyone is wondering, this incredible breakthrough had funding from Biden's NIH Cancer Moonshot initiative. ⬇️

Found some waste, fraud and abuse: "We’re going to run a marketing campaign" "The ad campaign amounts to an extremely expensive taxpayer-funded propaganda blitz to scare off migrants and to flatter Trump on television." www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

🧵Trump has proposed placing the USPS under the Commerce Department to address its financial challenges, potentially leading to privatization. This move could impact mail delivery, including ballots, and may require Congressional approval. Critics, including postal unions, oppose the change. REPOST

@altnps.bsky.social California state parks is looking for an ecologist to study and create policies for rehabilitating park areas that have been used by illegal cannabis growers. Might be a thing for a laid off national Park expert?

I'm just saying...

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

Know thy enemy

The National Park Service fired many of its park rangers as part of a reduction in the federal work force. Some rangers decided it was worth the risk to speak out online about the cuts and share their love of the Park Service. “It’s scary, but it was the right thing to do.”

I know this might be a stretch but there’s a chance greater than 0 that Trump will try to have the College of Cardinals name him as the next Pope.

If you didn't know... • Exxon • Moulton/Coors • Walmart Have funded Heritage Foundation (#Project2025) for YEARS #Boycott

Moral of the story: when you remove the government's ability to provide services for the people, you get overrun by bears. Sometimes the bears are metaphorical... sometimes, not so much.

Jasmine Crockett is shredding this solo. But it’s past time for the rhythm section to enter this song already.

Stand Up for Science 🧪

Members of Elon's PRIVATE security detail have been deputized by the US Marshals Service. Smells like bullshit.

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

Make no mistake: Trump's plan is to privatized the mail so his billionaire buddies can profit. Trump expected to take control of USPS, fire postal board, officials say www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Cut the budget for congress and senate. Cut travel for White House. Cut congressional in house benefits. Cut White House entertainment funds.

What if the hockey fans in Boston say “Fuck Trump” in unison tonight?

Spread this shit loud and wide. Even JD Trance is trying to rip you off!

(1/2) Interesting thread about how the USCG could be used by the current administration. The CG conducts law enforcement actions as part of its daily operations, and can be ordered by the government to do so in ways that the other services can't. www.threads.net/@theempathet...

☎️ Senator Schumer and demand that he LEAD 202-224-3121

Cowardice. Their legislative bodies have sent men and women to DIE for ideals they’re too scared to vote to defend? Get the fuck out of office then and let someone with a spine take your seat.

You know this is 100% going to happen…

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

New on MSNBC: Pete Hegseth is considering firing a slate of military generals and flag officers as early as this week, according to two defense officials and three congressional officials.

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

Here at the Health & Human Services (HHS) rally in Washington, DC, to support our federal workers! Interesting chant from the crowd. “Hey, hey, RFK! We remember JFK!” Rep. Jamie Raskin spoke first and compared JFK’s championing of science & human rights to RFK’s anti-science stance.

Be as Alexei Navalny-ish as you possibly can! This is going to take strength like never and nothing before in our lifetime! This is all very real. 😒
