I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

@juliusgoat.bsky.social

What allies should sound like from “I’m Still Here” by @austinchanning.bsky.social “I can’t fix your pain, i cant take it away but i can see it. I can work for the rest of my life to make sure your children don’t have to experience the pain of racism. Doing nothing is no longer an option for me.”

Reading “I’m Still Here” by @austinchanning.bsky.social “I learned pretty early in life that while Jesus may be cool with racial diversity, America is not. The ideology that whiteness is supreme, better, best permeates the air we breathe - in our schools, in our offices, and in our…common life.”

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

I repeat: “DOGE is a transfer of wealth from the bottom to the top.”

When the truth really hurts…

This is really good messaging from Senator Gallego 👏

Joy is a form of resistance…Visited longwood gardens today

May you have the weekend you voted for …

He’s not a king and it’s our job to not fall for it.

Congresswoman Crockett is a national treasure.

If I ran for president on lowering grocery prices, I’d probably do something about this.

It’s fascinating what they wont regulate because they are the party of “freedom” (guns) and what they want to completely control (women’s bodies, using pronouns). 🖕🖕

Republicans have been ordered by their billionaire Puppet Master to end Medicare as we know it. Democrats have 215 members in the House who can stop this extreme effort. All we need is three House Republicans to join us.

They say women are so emotional but then a man goes and buys an entire social media platform so he can win another man an election because he can’t himself run for president so he can go ruin all the organizations he holds grudges against, sure bro.

THREAD: Democracy demands that elected leaders do not cave into threats - or fears - of violence. If you're in Congress afraid for your safety, you must tell the Capitol Police to get protection. Or its time to quit the institution and let someone else do the job. www.rawstory.com/morning-joe-...

Me, making plans... ...in 2024: "I'm going to learn new things and travel and enjoy my life!" ...in 2025: "Are there any nice countries left I can flee to?"

Oligarchy doesn’t even begin to describe what this is

“🍑 is unfit to lead during moments of crisis like this. Before victims have even been identified, 🍑 is blaming people with disabilities, service members, hiring programs. The buck stops with him – yet he is failing to demonstrate his role as protector of the American people and head of our gov’t”

Black people have never needed a government to recognize our traditions and beliefs. #BlackHistoryMonth will proceed as planned.

The Framers foresaw this problem and figured legislators' ambition, self-preservation, and self-respect would drive them to act against a tyrant. The Framers didn't expect a majority of Congress would be cowards and fools who cheered it like pigs celebrating the arrival of the butcher.

I’m starting to think the horrors may out-persist me 🫠

The absolute last thing science needs is a political lens.

Let’s be clear. This isn’t DEFENDING women. It’s ERASING women. The latest OPM memo:

I sure hope so…

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

Bought this beer from @mbcbrews.bsky.social to celebrate election results and inauguration. It’s been hiding in the back of the fridge since November, but I took one out tonight. I’m not letting them steal my joy or my hope.

I wont give in to the fear. I wont give in to the lies. I wont bow down to a tyrant.

Be on the right side of history.

ICYMI — Sharpton led a buy-in to support Costco after they didn’t back down on DEI

55 points most by any team in NFC Championship Game history 👀

Limiting my social media (and reality) this year and have already finished 8 books … can attest to this.

Some of us were just lucky with the location our parents lived when we were born. Doesn't mean you are worth more or have different rights.

Imagine that

Constantly…

Was talking to a friend who went to seminary school and he said that (at the time) pastors were taught to “comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable.” Making this my mission this year - supporting the people being hurt by this administration and ruining days for the people ok with it.

Feeling overwhelmed by Trump’s first week? A little piece of advice: skip the doomscrolling and go straight to the facts. This read is a great place to start.

It doesn’t even bring any “told you so” satisfaction because it just hurts everyone…

Very helpful perspective…
