If you're represented by a Republican and you care about the post office, how about flyering outside your local post office. Tell folks about the administration's plan to dismantle USPS and tell them to contact their GOP reps. Include local telephone numbers on the fliers. bsky.app/profile/sylv...

I encourage everyone to read this and to share. This is what real resistance is. This is how it's done. "When history tells the story of South Korea’s recent political drama, it will recount a tale of a democracy under siege—and a nation that refused to crumble." What will history say of us?

As America is being torn apart, weakened, and sold to the highest bidder, I think about all the folks who told me, "Well, it won't be THAT bad" and "We survived 4 years of Trump..." and "The systems will hold." All of them are privileged and well-off. Alas. We're all in it now.

In the Kremlin, Putin announces that "our man" Trump is delivering to him Ukraine on a silver platter. Trump is an absolute traitor, and Republicans know it.

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.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Democrats should go to all these ruby red and vulnerable GOP districts where voters are upset at Trump and Musk and court them. Full court press.

Remember the good old days of billionaires? They minded their own business and did their crazy crap behind closed doors.

Heads up, everyone. I'm going to do a thread tomorrow on the contractors & huge money behind the concentration camps Trump is now building. One which will hold 10,000 internees at Fort Bliss on the Texas-New Mexico border. Yes, this is real and it is coming. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Despite our shortcomings, a critical mass of people here and abroad have always believed in the ideals of America. We have no right to give up on them now. Sam B. Girgus:

If you don’t think Trump is taking over the US Mail to do away with mail-in voting, you haven’t been paying attention.

After a lifetime on the frontiers of the fight against HIV, researchers can finally see the end of the epidemic in sight. But thanks to the Trump administration’s executive orders, it’s unclear when—or possibly even ever—this breakthrough medicine will see the light of day.
