"We are getting lots of calls about Musk and lots of calls thanking me for sticking up for Ukraine..." www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Not surprised that it's community colleges that are fighting back. Community colleges serve the greatest number of people facing systemic barriers. A large percentage of community college students are the first in their family to attend college.

Soon it will be too late. Congress must act. Republicans deserve relentless protests and demands for their acquiescence to this man solidifying power to overrun our democracy.

A propos of Hegseth firing anyone who isn’t a White man. Our deep dive on his Crusaderism and White nationalism. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

For all you who continually whine “I’m not racist, I just think we need to have standards,” this is absorb this.No Black man could become head of the Joint Chiefs without meeting the standard. What they want is to harden a system of affirmative action for white guys.They what their grandfathers had.

It was always going to lead here: to resegregation and making sure that pathetically incompetent white men like Pete Hegseth could crack whips on us all

If only all Dems had @aoc.bsky.social ‘s understanding of the urgency of this moment we would not be facing the apocalypse alone

The new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Caine, told Trump: "I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir." 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨☠️

"Caine’s military service includes combat roles in Iraq, special operations postings and positions inside some of the Pentagon’s most classified special access programs. However, it does not include key assignments that were identified in law as prerequisites for the job."

Even Yahoo news is publishing that Donvict Drumpf is a fucking KGB Ruzzian Pootin spy & Moscow Tool. Codename Krasnov, named after a Ruzzian collaborator with the Nazis. uk.news.yahoo.com/donald-trump...

Why do you think everything he does ultimately benefits Putin and Russia? Our adversary since the end of WWII. ☠️

Trump's KGB Codename: Krasnov

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

I really want the people on here from around the world to know that we aren’t all MAGA crazy and so many Americans (truly at least half!) are intelligent and engaged and articulate and we are just as horrified as you are and we are truly trying to figure out how to fix this.

I've never seen so many mobilizations, rallies and actions, honestly. They're happening pretty constantly, in cities but also in small towns and in every single state. They're not getting tons of coverage, but they're happening, and they're growing. Join one, or start one, you're not alone in this.

People experiencing pregnancy loss in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position.

Feb. 28, buy only from small, independent businesses, not massive companies, especially avoiding Amazon, Walmart & Best Buy. Raise awareness of the enormous power of our collective action & set the stage for bigger future actions. #WeHaveThePower

Cutting essential services is not saving the US money.

⚠️ Are you over 65 or have a #disability ♿? A Cut to #Medicaid is a Cut to #Medicare! Tell Congress don’t cut Medicaid!   📞 (202) 224-3121 Medicaid cuts will hurt rural hospitals. Say no to any Medicaid cuts: whether it’s work requirements, eligibility changes, or reduced funding, a cut is a cut!

The House is proposing massive tax cuts for the wealthy, funded by devastating Medicaid cuts. Meanwhile the Senate is planning two separate bills to do the same thing. Margarida Jorge at Health Care for America Now explains. Watch the full #CareTalk ep: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyNl...
