War hero schools a chickenhawk.

Oh wow. They radicalized Meathead.

Request is for 13x the current annual custody budget. Not sure people are preparing for the scale of the domestic gulags this administration wants to build and how many more people will be snatched if this operation gets up and running.

Didn’t agree with much Reagan said but he’s dead on here. I’m old enough to remember American cars in the 1970s—absolute shit and only changed because of competition with imports over the years.

BMO: “.. The ‘Buy Canadian’ movement is deepening .. We judge that this shift in attitudes could add roughly $10 billion to the Canadian economy annually, lifting growth by 0.3 ppts (+/- 0.2 ppts).” 🇨🇦

Keep calling, keep screaming, keep getting loud. It feels endless. It's exhausting. But it matters.

Sweet!

Btw each American Citizen pays roughly $4 per year in taxes to fund the NWS. Pretty sweet deal to get life saving information for less than a cup of coffee per year!

One thing you can do today to help stop Elon Musk? Write to @octopus.energy and get them to stop leasing Teslas: templates and CEO email address here: www.teslatakedown.co.uk/about-5

“This does not just affect North Carolina,” Riggs said. “This is like dropping a match in a really dry forest. And if we let this kind of anti-democratic effort take hold, we will not be able to contain it. So this is a fight for the very soul of democracy. Today’s decision was deeply misinformed.”

From Nov 7:

The stock market is something we watch and feel and measure, so its collapse is well-tracked. But when you see the charts of a straight downward trajectory, they also summarize what’s happening with cancer research, academic freedom, basic rights, America’s standing in the world, and so much more.

Retirees and disabled people are facing chronic website outages and other access problems as they attempt to log in to their online Social Security accounts, even as they are being directed to do more of their business with the agency online.

Where is our humanity?

Simple yet effective.

Tesla Takedowns continue. Berkeley was amazing last week- hundreds of people. Keep coming every Saturday from 12-2! @teslatakedown.com @tesla-takedown.bsky.social @indivisible.org

Yes, because what's holding the US back from greatness is our lack of "wood independence". 🙄 Logging these >100 year old trees will be disastrous for climate.

The entire budget of the National Endowment for the Humanities (which has been devastated by Trump & Musk) is 3% of this.

@maddow.msnbc.com Port Huron, Michigan! We marched our river border with Canada to the Blue Water Bridge that connects us, and waved at our friends protesting on the other side. 500+, in a very red county! #HandsOff

The world needs to say NO to Starlink, Tesla, SpaceX, Xtwitter, Google, Meta, Amazon, PayPal, and anything else Peter Thiel. Power to the people.

The is no limit to how much brutality the Trump admin is willing to allow Russia to get away with. They have never once condemned a single atrocity committed by Putin. Trump played golf while this happened and didn’t say a word about it.

When Trump took office in January, unemployment was 4%. We'd just wrapped up a year of 2.8% GDP growth. These numbers do not a "depression" make

NYC’s Hands Off march completely shuts down 42nd Street! #handsoff

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

SCOOP: Elon Musk’s DOGE has plans to stage a “hackathon” next week in Washington, DC. The goal is to create a single “mega API”—a bridge that lets software systems talk to one another—for accessing IRS data, sources tell WIRED.

Perhaps there were signs he is incompetent

Just got to the Mall and saw this sign, which no one is going to top. #HandsOff2025

The White House has just released a new official statement as the economy crashes: “The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.”

Massive, unarchivable datasets of cancer, covid, and Alzheimer's research could be lost forever 🔗 www.404media.co/nih-archives...

If you are attending a #HandsOff rally in NORTH CAROLINA today, please share/discuss this link in any conversation that you might have with your fellow protesters. We need to do everything we can to stop the GOP from stealing the NC Supreme Court election. thegriffinlist.com

Lithuanians in Vilnius paid more respects to the 4 American troops who died in Lithuania than Donald Trump…who ran off to go golfing.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve has been handed over to a private company. In an oligarchy, control of national assets is privatized. The US DoE web site says this contract was awarded after a "rigorous competitive selection process". How stupid do they think we are? oilprice.com/Latest-Energ...

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

And what about the interest? 🤔

He’s tanking the economy, destroying our standing in the world, depriving women and LGBTQ communities of their fundamental rights, attacking the environment, disappearing legal immigrants, gutting Veteran’s benefits and Social Security. And he’s making you pay for his golf trips while he’s at it.
