THE ERINYES were three goddesses of retribution and vengeance whose job was to punish men who committed heinous crimes. We must not cede the cuture war. Corruption and greed need to be intolerable. Acceptance of others and our differences is key. MYODB.

Raskin: "It's becoming obvious to the American people that Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not opponents of corruption, they are agents of corruption."

Under fascism, no one is safe. Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc. Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations. Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

These pictures are when Black Lives Matter came to the Capitol and protested. They were actually interested in having a conversation. Contrary to popular belief they didn't beat us with flag poles. Yes that's me in the pictures.

Tesla paid $0 in federal taxes last year. If you’re reading this, you paid more taxes than Tesla. It made $2.3 billion last year. Does that seem fair to you?

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

Editorial Board instructs us: "Don’t get distracted. Don’t get overwhelmed. Don’t get paralyzed and pulled into the chaos." Ironic, given how the #BrokenTimes is distracted, overwhelmed, and unprepared for the chaos. Now Is Not the Time to Tune Out www.nytimes.com/2025/02/08/o...

If you, a “constitutional conservative,” are spending your time doing this right now, I never want to hear about the separation of powers from you again.

Almost two weeks ago, I found out I was one of 40 people getting laid off from NBC News. Those who know me know I’ve wanted to go independent for a long time. Later this month, I’m launching @spitfirenews.com. We need journalism that is louder than ever. spitfirenews.com/p/an-introdu...

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Due to America’s history, the path for working class liberation is the path of Black liberation. There has been no greater working class fight than abolishing chattel slavery. The laws that hurt working class Americans are often rooted in & pushed forward by anti-Blackness.

Why the hell is the Heritage Foundation suddenly showing up in my Facebook feed????? Never has my algorithm had any voices like that. Worried about TikTok? Let's worry about all of the companies manipulating our electorate!

North Carolina Supreme Court GOP candidate Jefferson Griffin requested a hand recount in his tight race against Democratic opponent Allison Riggs. Meanwhile, the state GOP has been pushing an anti-democratic bill in an effort to gain more power.

1/ 🚨 Conspiracy theories about the 2024 election miss the bigger picture. The truth? It wasn’t one night, one hack, or one fraud. It was a system rigged in plain sight – right in front of us. The playbook was out in the open for years. But hardly anyone paid attention. Here’s how they did it... 🧵

No reason it can’t be both but I really think we’re looking at more of a Berlusconi than Hitler situation, just the most garishly crooked guys you’ve ever seen pulling out copper wire

Especially the last part. We must use the term "Republican Administration"

This history of Musk's takeover. youtu.be/qI7iwFO0ShI?...

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive. This is what oligarchy looks like.
