Senator Bernie Sanders live in Omaha! Fighting oligarchy! Stop the coup! youtube.com/live/dRonB7G...

The view from abroad...reality from those who see with a clearer eye. #UGH #MUSK

Anybody but me -- listening to the national anthem at the hockey game wonder how this song holds up now? Or on the 4th of July? How are we going to square a dictator in the "land of the free" this summer? #Canada vs #USA

The meek shall inherit the earth -- but not the mineral rights. bbc.com/news/article...

🚨JUST IN: Trump just delayed enforcement of rules better compensating Americans when airlines bump them off flights or lose their baggage. We break the news in Lever Daily - our new once-a-day email newsletter. Check it out here -- and pass it on 👇 www.levernews.com/behind-ceos-...

Always an honor, and a treat, to talk to @anandwrites.bsky.social about how to fabulously fight fascism: the.ink/p/watch-an-a...

Everyone....will be touched by the #MUSK and #TRUMP disaster. Every locale, every family, every business. @maddow.msnbc.com if you want more local reaction to #DOGE. Hoping no one was planning to go to Voyageurs National Park to canoe this summer. replica.startribune.com/infinity/art...

I know this is a minor issue (considering everything going on) but assuming we make it to July 4th...anyone wondering how odd celebrating that day is going to be with King #Musk and #Trump in charge.

"Disinformation bubble" -- until we figure out how to break through that it's going to be tough for Ukraine and for all of us. #MUSK #TRUMP

First time since I began #SocialSecurity that I got up and felt like I HAD to verify my deposit - which was there. I still remember the wonderful worker who helped me with all my questions and to ensure my account was set up correctly. So sad to see how willfully ignorant we have become as a country

New in PN: Unelected billionaire breaks laws to "restore" democracy "In reality, most of what Musk is up to is flatly illegal. Most egregiously, his deletion of entire depts & Trump’s refusal to spend as directed by Congress violates the Constitution. That’s why multiple courts have enjoined them."

When @maddow.msnbc.com asked @vanhollen.senate.gov the other night about all that's going on Rachel said: This feels like more than finding reasons for tax cuts. Of course it is. They are privatizing everything from the National Park Service...to bankrupting farmers to take their lands (USAID)...

The privatization of USPS starts soon.

" A little more we, a good bit less me..." Once again, a good read about the inter-connectedness the human species always forgets... Somebody From Somewhere open.substack.com/pub/mikemcca...

You know as smart as I am...I would be bad at so many things because I have no training. "The man #Trump sent to the Kremlin to handle a titanic geopolitical challenge does not even have a diplomatic background." Belittle education and critical thinking and you get this: bbc.com/news/article...

We're not going to get our tax refunds are we? #DOGE #MUSK

Imagine housing prices will fall and hedge funds will come in and buy it all up? Much like what they will do the farmland in the midwest? #PresidentsDay celebration within the oligarchy.

When I grew up it was "Honest Abe Lincoln" and "I cannot tell a lie" (Washington). How far we have fallen on #PresidentsDay. Try those two lines out on any #MAGA supporter. Convicted felon is now the norm. #TRUMP and #PresidentMusk are a disgrace to the holiday.

#PresidentsDay

Anybody but me remember Jonathan Winters in that great 1967 comedy: The Russians Are Coming? "We just got to get organized" he kept screaming. For crying out loud Earth Day was organized without cell phones and the internet. Can someone step up and #Organize www.commondreams.org/opinion/mass...

Plenty of boos in Montreal for the Star-Spangled Banner, again.

Imagine telling any #EFC fan in the US that the lads would be the most stable thing in their lives on 2/15....Up The 13th Place #Toffees -- an absolute joy to take your mind off your troubles.

"You'll never have to vote again" he said. Who didn't listen?

Last night, we broke the news that the top US election security watchdog has frozen all of its election security work and is reviewing everything it has done to help state and local officials secure their elections for the past eight years. https://wrd.cm/3QkfGh3

On 11/6 I said it feels like the tanks rolled into Paris and now we have to wait for D-Day only I thought no one's launching an invasion. Could I be wrong? Thanks #Canada (and others). @meidastouch.com feels the same. Special Message from Meidas Co-Founder Ben open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Please Canada -- come rescue us -- Minnesota has to come along with CA, WA and OR... www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-IQ...
