NO. At a time of massive income and wealth inequality we should not be giving tax breaks to billionaires. We should demand that they start paying their fair share.

Jane Fonda in SAG Awards speech: "Woke just means you give a damn about other people" cnn.it/3XdUSvy

We were watching THE SOUND OF MUSIC this weekend and it is pretty strange (and upsetting) that this movie, never before cool or edgy, now feels politically urgent. Captain von Trapp berating Max for insisting he “doesn’t care about politics” as fascism threatens his country…it hits different.

Trump’s second-term honeymoon is ending fast. His approval is plummeting, his policies are unpopular, and even some Republicans are pushing back. The cracks are showing, and there’s no hiding it. Catch up on the latest with The Big Picture's 'Week In Wins.'

Couldn’t agree more. This is how the Tea Party transformed the Republican Party back in 2009: they kept confronting reps and Senators all across the country until it snowballed into a major media issue. Scientists all across the country: do this! Students, fellows, PIs, you all can do this.🧪

For those following the story of unidentified men violently dragging a protester from a local Idaho GOP meeting, it turns out they were from a private security firm called LEAR Asset Management. But neither the sheriff (who watched it all go down) or the GOP will take responsibility for hiring them.

Very much so. The courts will not save us. We need to shift public opinion by spreading the word about what is really happening, and we need to push Congress members to act like this is an emergency. Which it is.

Their #psyops is ridic. Everything is going to be dumb shit to gum up our boots and piss us off. It will be hard to not be reactive. Take a breather and remember: they’re stupider than you. Come back to it later, you got this. #bullsonparade #fightoverflight

That's because Bernie is the real deal

The US government is now nonstop performative idiocracy.

I was sooooo looking forward to responding though *kinda whines*

Very cool info!

What’s being lost as health experts are caught in the drive to shrink the federal government? Today’s story w/ @anniewaldman.bsky.social is about the ones working to save lives We’re going to keep reporting & want to hear from you. Reach me on Signal 312.730.4797 or at [email protected]

WTF

This is who Trump is firing (thread 2 of 3): (1/?) Adm. Lisa Franchetti entered the Navy in 1985. She was designated a Surface Warfare Officer in 1989, and has nearly 20 years of operational and at-sea experience. She has commanded the USS Ross, two Carrier Strike Groups, and a Destroyer Squadron.

Trump is making Putin’s wildest dreams come true

Elon’s mass harassment email to all federal employees underscores the importance of having unions to represent workers against abusive management.

FEDERAL RESEARCH LAB SCIENTIST IN 1965: After five years and seventy million dollars we have invented a new type of plastic that prevents communists from being able to climb ladders too fast FEDERAL RESEARCH LAB SCIENTIST IN 2025: My cure for cancer was shelved because it might benefit Hispanics

Measles are contagious. Measles cause 1 in 4 people to be hospitalized. Measles can be deadly especially in children. Measles can cause blindness & deafness. Measles can cause brain damage yrs later. Measles can cause "immune amnesia". Measles are preventable with MMR vaccine. #medsky #IDsky 🛟 😷🧪

its not GREAT but it is very FUNNY that the richest man in the world is trying to big time federal employees. like, okay, get ready to receive 25,000 emails that say "I delivered the mail"

Are you bored tonight? Send your five accomplishments, maybe your shopping list, or your five thoughts on Elon from the past week to OPM at [email protected].

Musk, Vance and their support for the anti-American, pro-Russian German far-right From Jamie Kirchik www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/o...

okay but every fucking company that dropped anything remotely "DEI" so fast without any actual impetus to do so, preemptively for laws that were never going to be upheld because they weren't constitutional, needs to be fucking dragged into the street and stomped on forever

Calling all feds: new info site please share data and stories! #AltGov #AltFam please share #SaveAmerica #StopTrump trumpcostsamerica.com

83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

Know Your Rights trainings work. Don’t even open the door. Really, to anyone. If it’s someone important and they know you, they have a cellphone, they’ll call.

The Trump administration blocked key parts of the federal government’s apparatus for funding biomedical research, effectively halting progress on much of the country’s future work on illnesses like cancer and addiction despite a federal judge’s order to release grant money.

Thoughts of a wood witch… #witchsky

Listen I know shit sucks but PLEASE find the things that make you happy and keep doing them. It is not frivolous. It is how you survive.

You can edit as many websites as you want, but you will never erase the trans community or the incredible contributions they've made to our country's history. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...

Take note of the messaging - this is both accurate and *deeply* unpopular. It's the kind of thing that forces GOP House members to quietly tell their constituents that they too are concerned about Musk. Make them own this. Make them squirm.

Looking for ways to stand up to Musk? Help stop him from buying another election.👇

As it turns out, Mike Johnson is now learning that a lot of Republican voters are on Medicaid.

💥ATTENTION FEDS💥 All the termination letters going out that we've seen use "inadequate performance" as the reason for termination. SAVE YOUR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS. Tell your friends who aren't on bluesky! Probationary employees can't be fired for "poor performance" if their performance is not poor

The distance between what people voted for and what people realize they got may be the only thing that can motivate members of Trump's own party to oppose him.

“We’ve been sent amazingly inept & spammy emails by OPM, to the point where they had to order our Department leadership to send us further emails to vouch that their spammy emails were legit.” The emails were so bad that some of us reported phishing. They were straight out of cybersecurity training

The Press needs to stand with the AP. Imagine how fast Trump would lose it if CNN and MSNBC went 24 hours without saying his name and covered other stories. Maybe focus on Elon instead and say "The Administration," leave Trump's name out of it. The AP would be front of the room by Friday morning!

Say it with me, "HELL NO!" 🍊💩 And this bitch can kiss my plump Voudou ass.🪄

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

Elon Musk has now set his sights on the U.S. gold reserves at Fort Knox, insisting on personally ensuring the gold remains intact. The vault was last opened to journalists and a congressional delegation in 1974.

Real classy

A coalition of watchdog groups and unions is seeking to block the DOGE team from accessing taxpayer data at the IRS. A similar battle is brewing over Social Security data.

JUST IN: A federal judge has rejected a call from blue states to temporarily block Elon Musk and DOGE's access to federal data.

Well that's horrifying
