Spotted: Singular they used in the wild to protect the anonymity of a Republican congressperson complaining about Trump behind his back

A border split my family's language. Now I'm bringing it back #BBC www.bbc.com/future/a...

www.bbc.com/news/article... This is not going to stop unless we fight back.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

The Trump-Musk pipeline is real. Musk donates a quarter-billion dollars to elect Trump → Trump puts him in charge of federal spending → Musk’s companies rake in government contracts. Meanwhile, Trump slashes healthcare and research funding. See the problem?

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.

Mayor Thomas Koch of Quincy, Massachusetts will not fly a pride flag during the month of June, but wants to put up religious statues at the police station. He has been demonstrably homophobic since he first started campaigning for office many years ago. chng.it/bx2WLPpmDL

Wow

We are not going to tolerate this power grab.

Wow. Jamie Raskin discusses a possible impeachment of Donald Trump for illegal executive overreach. “Find me two Republicans and I’ll go to work tomorrow.” Would you support impeachment against Donald Trump?

We were just told that they won’t let us in. They are denying entry to 2 dozen members of Congress. Elon Musk has all our private information & we have no idea what he’s doing with it. This is happening completely behind closed doors. HELL NO. It’s illegal. We demand oversight!

It's an "unlawful takedown of an independent agency." Sen. Andy Kim of NJ, "This is an entity that was created through federal statute, codified through federal statute, and something that cannot be changed, cannot be removed except through actions of Congress." RESIST! www.npr.org/2025/02/03/n...

Did @appleinc.bsky.social actually connect all users to Starlink the recent iOS update? Yes they did. So it’s time for an android? Unless they’ve done the same 💩.

Dear Democratic strategists, Navigating this administration and Project 2025 will be difficult enough. If you flood me with emails and texts daily—multiple times a day—demanding urgent donations, I (and many others) will become numb to the cause. Please be more judicious in your messaging.

Fifteen years ago, the Supreme Court’sCitizens United decision ushered in a new era of corporate dominance over American politics.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Don’t despair. Organize.

I'm grateful that Chicago Public Schools is offering resources and support for their students around immigration and their rights. Here's a know your rights guide that can be shared with families:https://www.ilrc.org/sites/default/files/resources/kyr_two_pager_v2.pdf

“There is a genuine crisis in Democratic governance. Until we fix it, we will never consolidate the electorate under the liberal banner.”

The fact that ancestry.com charges $21.99 cancellation fee makes it much much less likely that I would ever resubscribe.

“California’s electricity grid ran on 100% renewables with no electricity blackouts or cost increases for a record 98 days last year…the price of electricity dropped by more than 50% within the year.”

"Democracy Dies in Darkness"? Democracy dies in broad daylight.

Respect to @anntelnaes.bsky.social for quitting the Washington Post due to censorship over her on-point cartoon. More of this from artists and writers, please. Don't obey in advance, especially to the broligarchy.

The 4 major potato companies agree to feed data into PotatoTrac. “Using this aggregated pricing data, they have been able to coordinate prices…to artificially inflate the price by ensuring that no price competition takes place,” one lawsuit argues.
