By voting for him you have declared how little we have in common, how small our shared ground of agreement is, and how different the visions of this nation we share. And as much as it grieves me, I’m simply choosing to believe you. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...

1. Yesterday, Maine Governor Janet Mills confronted Trump to his own face at a Governor's Dinner over his anti-trans EO. When he threatened her for allowing trans people in sports, she responded: "See you in court." The latest from Mira Lazine. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

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."

We aren’t all farmers…

Being in community 💪

House Republicans who were willing to hold town halls back home this week got an earful. At events from Georgia and Wisconsin to Oklahoma and Oregon, many of them faced hostile crowds furious about the sweeping budget cuts & mass firings of federal workers that Trump and Musk’s DOGE is carrying out.

The scariest thing is that the millions of Americans watching Fox News are blissfully unaware of all the horrific insane things that Musk, Trump & his unqualified cabinet are doing Or that Trump has already DESTROYED Democracy and is in the process of destroying America! He needs to be stopped!

You want us to respect your choices and decisions, to agree to disagree... for the utter disaster you inflicted on us? You can’t be serious! It warrants what you are getting, derision and mockery, it's either that or rage. #ThePoet

Ontario! Good morning lovelies! ADVANCED VOTING is today, last one until the 27th. 10am-8pm Please help save us from Repulican/trump lovin' Ford and GO VOTE! Please vote, and take a friend. Let's end this nightmare.

We've said we need you and your voice. You are a true Canadian, and you're writing a book with all you're doing. A book that will tell a story of devotion to Country, a leader in a time of need and a plain-spoken person to bring the people together. Thank you. youtube.com/watch?v=es5q...

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Truth. The criminal admitted it himself.

Make your GOP lawmakers answer these 3 questions about mass deportation. [Spoiler alert: They can’t ]

I don’t have kids. I just care about the world and the people who live in it. It’s never wrong to do the right thing.

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

In addition to Congress being the place that makes the laws, pretty key thing, the constitution explicitly says Congress gets to create the postal system. It’s not left implied that that comes under law making generally. The President has no power to unilaterally abolish it and move it to commerce.

People have gone to jail for less.

There goes their defense in the appointments clause case. @jocelynbenson.bsky.social et al. take note.

Texas - just more dead women. 😞 www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Brilliant.

Draw Attention to What They're Doing - A very special guest joined me in the kitchen tonight!! Here's the entire interview with @warren.senate.gov youtu.be/MR6i3y5D2bE

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

I have followed Sara Nelson for years and she is an absolute force to be reckoned with. This is but one example of her ferocity, and as usual she is right.

I don’t wish anything bad on that poor kid, but good lord, concepts of thoughts and prayers for the dimwitted parent.

We must all band together. There are far more of us than there are of them. Never forget that, no matter how difficult this may become!!

In 2028 this is what a Democratic president needs to do. We will win if you all vote blue this time.

Is it too much to ask to want the government to stop the president from doing the illegal stuff?

Canada wins…

Fucking hell. Everyone better get engaged in mutual aid right now if you’re not. Come the next climate crisis, we’re on our own. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/c...

BREAKING: Canada defeats the USA to take home the #4Nations  Championship 🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canadian PM Justin Trudeau tweeted: “You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.”

Hope.......

This will go down as the real end.

"Key congressional Republicans have powers they’re choosing not to use... "Senator Susan Collins, for example, believes the White House and DOGE may be breaking the law. She doesn’t, however, seem eager to use her considerable influence..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Christ. This is so bad.
