Keep the Congressional switchboard number handy these days: (202) 224-3121

My daughter told her grandma that WTF means “Wow, That’s Fantastic”. Her texts are funny as hell now!

Indeed.

In Fossil Oregon dinosaur bones and prehistoric shark teeth are found on the ground pretty commonly. Fossil is 2657 feet above sea level. Through plate tectonic shift, it has been lifted that far above sea level for thousands of years. Sea level has risen hundreds of feet too...

Can someone with a military background explain why this isn’t an act of war? The victim is a “US-flagged” vessel “at anchor in the North Sea and carrying huge amounts of jet fuel for the US military.” The deliberate attack’s aggressor is a Russian captain.

I keep thinking about the 1999 movie Arlington Road, which imagines a secret white supremacist plot blowing up FBI HQ. Who knew that in the end the white supremacist terrorist wld be a man of color approved by Senate even after he published a book stating his plan. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfbB...

In America an ugly chapter has begun. We understand that this is our time to stand for our principles -no matter the cost. We see fear-we see cowardice. And we see courage too. This moment calls for moral fortitude & clarity. We are wide awake now. Our best selves are rising to meet the moment.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Per @johnleguizamo.bsky.social: “Medicaid is called by different names in different states! Stay awake America you lose everything you rely on!”

I am looking at a chamber filled with hundreds and hundreds of people, and if you asked me to seriously estimate what percentage of them understand how deep in the s*** we are right now, I mean really truly understand how close America is to full collapse, I would put the number at between 10 and 20

If anyone throws their shoe at him tonight, I'll send them a new pair. No questions asked.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

They try to silence us, hold us back, and strip away our rights, but women always fight back. This #WomensHistoryMonth, we’re doubling down, because when women lead, we all move forward.

Rep. Al Green is a goddamn hero.

He thinks he's a king.

This current Social Security riff by Trump is completely debunked 100% total made-up BS. No president has EVER lied this baldly from the podium. And Vance, Johnson, and the whole GOP just nod and go along with it.

BREAKING: Ontario’s terminating its $100-million deal with Starlink, and US companies will be barred from future contracts. They warned NY, Michigan, and Minnesota if the tariffs persist, Ontario will impose a 25% surcharge on electricity and may cut off the supply entirely.

This economy is going to be so easy to crash, you'll think it were a Tesla.

If you want to eat the most expensive eggs you’ve ever had in your life, you should have backyard chickens. Don’t get me wrong, I love them and have raised them, but they are an expensive hobby.

Donald Trump: “America is back”

Anyone have that sinking feeling happening?

the vice president of the united states is a groyper who spends his online time following nazis and esoteric reactionary influencers is true and yet the press seems completely disinterested in it

“Engineers and executives at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency are drawing healthy taxpayer-funded salaries—sometimes from the very agencies they are cutting.”

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

I am very sorry, Canada. The stress we have been causing you is a source of shame and regret for almost half of America. Please be patient. We will make it right.

Brutal.
