Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

84% HUD staff cuts will cause irreversible harm to towns still recovering & trying to rebuild from recent disasters. Trump is giving tax breaks to his rich friends over ensuring HUD can deliver resources to you.   Hear 👏🏾 Me 👏🏾 Clearly 👏🏾    He doesn't care about you!

PSST GOP: "Something seems to be preventing you from appreciating that he suffers from an extremely serious, and dangerous, mental illness. When he says crazy things... He’s not just having a laugh. He believes every word he says." claireberlinski.substack.com/p/impeach-hi...

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Rep. Jasmine Crockett exposes near $1 billion in new contracts for Musk in just 2 weeks: "This is nothing more than a money grab. He's not out there trying to save money for the American people, he's lining his pockets."

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

1. OSHA has ordered the digital and physical destruction of 18 publications on workplace safety practices, according to an email obtained by Popular Information. The email says the publications have been removed from the web and tells staff that physical copies should be "disposed of or recycled"

Excellent breakdown of the absolute bullshit we're wading through www.thebulwark.com/p/elon-musk-...

ATTN: ALL ELECTED DEMS — DO THIS!!

Let's not forget that ultimately the GOP is the most responsible for the current fascist shit show www.wonkette.com/p/an-open-le...

ALL OF THIS www.wonkette.com/p/an-open-le...

The FAA and SpaceX hid the fact that they list yet another rocket this month. Not only that, but the FAA is not going to investigate either. And there’s your reason for forcing out the head of the FAA.

Props to the good people of Ohio and fuck nazi trash forever

Great piece by @elienyc.bsky.social. Our institutions won’t save us. Only we can do that. Twas always thus, and always thus will be. Make sure to read the entite thing here: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

PSA: They’re killing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau because it protects you from them.

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more. - US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID - $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes. - Food stranded in Houston - Aid stopped in transit. The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts. NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms. This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.

Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. 🔥 Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at “dangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrests—just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

Jasmine Crockett, after accusing colleagues of castrating their Constitutional duty, said, “My job is to make sure we don’t have any kings or queens in this country, but it seems like you all have decided it’s going to be Mr. King and his queen. And y’all can pick which one is which.”

TRUMP TRADE WAR UPDATE: Colombia: Lasted 4 hours - Trump accepts what was already offered. 🇨🇴 Mexico: Lasted one weekend - Trump accepts worse than before. 🇲🇽 Canada: Lasted one weekend - Trump accepts what was already agreed. 🇨🇦 Two-step process established: 1. Try to look tough 2. Just fold 🤡

Tariffs will shut down North American auto production within a week, the industry warns. Canada’s auto sector exported $51 billion worth of vehicles in 2023 and 93% of them went to the U.S. Within days, the entire industry could shut down.

Anti-ICE protesters in California have shut down the 101 freeway in Los Angeles marching towards City Hall.

A case of tuberculosis has been confirmed at a Michigan school. Just as the Senate considers an avowed anti-vaxxer to lead our nation’s health agencies.

A friend in the neighborhood just sent me a picture from in front of Schumer’s building. (I’d join them if I didn’t have a soup to attend to right now!!)

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Trumpism operating as intended. www.live5news.com/2025/01/31/s...

I am so fucking sick of this weak shit.

I know “all empires fall” and all that nonsense but I’ll be wrestling, for the rest of my life, with the reality that the world’s mightiest superpower is being toppled the the absolute biggest fuckin’ losers imaginable. Just… junior prom rejects, all the way down.

I am having trouble regulating my moods because everything is simultaneously so terrifying and so stupid.

NEW: Donald Trump officially signs order to raise prices on Americans with 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico and an additional 10% tariff on China. Retaliation is expected. The U.S. is now in a massive trade war.

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

This is crucial reporting from @katherinejwu.com. Among the data being scrubbed is “the agency’s AtlasPlus tool, which contains nearly 20 years of CDC surveillance data on HIV, hepatitis, sexually transmitted infections, and tuberculosis…” www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Send this to all elected Dems

again this is a full scale attack on constitutional government

SO MUCH THIS

See what happens when you let Toonces drive the economy? Trump Announces Big Tariffs For Our Friends, Little Tariffs For China www.wonkette.com/p/trump-anno... By Doktor Zoom @doktorzoom.bsky.social

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head. So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

Well… stock market reacts to the news of the possible upcoming tariffs tomorrow.
