We march at dawn

lmao getting fact checked irl

Need a warm, fuzzy mood lift? Read this story!

We need more Jon Ossoffs in the Democratic Party. This is just fantastic.

Warnock: They are busy attacking ordinary people. They don’t understand what it’s like to ration your prescription drugs or what it’s like to try to figure out how to afford groceries. In the words of that prophet who just spoke at The Super Bowl: They not like us

If a law firm won't risk everything to defend itself, what makes you think it will risk anything to defend you? My advice: Find a law firm that will not back down and will never bend a knee.

Let’s. Do. This. 😎✨

Kaufmann: DOGE claims to have found Social Security loans going to 11 year olds and under. It's a survivor benefit annuity to young children whose parents have passed. That's the problem billionaires without a clue doing a job they don't understand

After patiently watching so many others post first of spring flowers, I can now join the celebration! Dwarf iris Arlington MA #flowers #EastCoastKin

Seeing double: it will soon be time to head out and look for this years babies

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks… “The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government. 🧵

“Elias Law Group will not be deterred from fighting for democracy in court. There will be no negotiation with this White House about the clients we represent or the lawsuits we bring on their behalf."

From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

Howard Lutnick is a FILTHY billionaire with no business talking about Social Security or the ACA. With Paul Weiss and Columbia U folding to MAGA this week, it’s even more powerful to see AOC and Bernie mobilizing 34k people. Whatever differences we have—set them aside. It’s time to stand with👇👇👇

Raskin: "There's an absolute attack on the Constitution taking place by an administration which views the Constitution as just inconvenient furniture that's gotta be kicked out of the way."

The United States of America is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care as a human right. The result: We rank dead last among wealthy nations in life expectancy. We must end that international embarrassment. Yes. We need Medicare for All.

Ron Johnson hasn't been holding town halls. So @indivisible.org Madison held one for him. Friday night. 500+ people. I'm about to ask them to help get out the vote for Susan Crawford.

No, not Democrats being “bused in”—just regular Nebraskans waking up to the fact that their Social Security is on the chopping block to fund tax cuts for billionaires. Great piece by PBS.

See ya X…

Maybe the Trump administration should just stop violating the law?

AOC: Do you know which coloradans did vote to cut medicare and jack up health care cost? Every single Republican representative from Colorado. Don't you worry, I was just at Gabe Evans' district, and 11,000 of his constituents would like a word

Is this the same guy who was complaining about Joe Biden using an autopen and not knowing what he was signing when he was president just a few days ago?

BREAKING: 34,000 people have showed up in Denver, Colorado this evening to see Bernie Sanders and AOC fight oligarchy and authoritarianism.

Here's a nice long exposure from a pier off of cedar key Florida. Taken some years back on a Moody evening as the clouds were drifting through. It's nice in color but makes for an interesting black and white as well! #scape #longexposure #landscape #B&W #landscapephotography

Colorado…

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person. I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

This government is so incompetent. What a waste of resources, and stress for these fine folks. apple.news/A9RrstHS4QDu...

President Trump attacked the Department of Education and conjured up chaos for public servants eligible for loan forgiveness. But loan forgiveness remains intact, and Democrats are fighting to honor eligible public servants' careers and well-being.

💥 BREAKING: Walt Disney Company shareholders voted today 99-1 percent to reject an anti-LGBTQ+ proposal, requesting that the company sever its relationship with the Human Rights Campaign and HRC's Corporate Equality Index. Disney Board recommended shareholders vote against the proposal.

You asked for Democratic Fighters! I've got Democratic Fighters! Joining me for, Coffee With Texas Paul, we have Congressman Robert Garcia D-CA and Josh Weil, candidate for the 6th Congressional District of Florida this April 1st. Join the live chat 11 am Eastern, 3-21-25.

What does it say about a regime that wants a population that is less educated, less informed, less free to say what they think, more riven by fear and insecurity? It tells me it’s a regime that cannot count on the peoples’ trust and will not last.

Trump is going after the FTC because it exists to protect consumers and small businesses against unfair, deceptive and anticompetitive acts by megacorporations. Elon Musk & Trump’s other billionaire cronies don’t want anyone to stand in their way when they screw over consumers and small businesses.

Amen to AOC! A social safety net makes for a civilized, caring society where we have a sense of security. I want to live in THAT society!

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

I had a surprise young constituent in my Dallas office yesterday — precious Ms. Lilli! Special thanks to her amazing family for their advocacy and for reminding us all on why protecting our access to quality education MATTERS!

If only.

Hey Baltimore, is anyone looking for a sweet cat who has been living in the alleys but has suddenly decided he wants to be indoors? This guy is camped out in my backyard, and I'd be happy to feed and shelter him if it wasn't abundantly clear he hopes to move inside.

Sandal would love to hear your work stories. he will not make comparisons to his own experiences. he will not make suggestions on how to fix your problems. he will act very offended on your behalf when you talk about your jerk coworkers. indeed, he will seem even more enraged than you are.
