Hello everyone! We're about to start our weekly cycle of free stores and it's going to be larger than ever. We have fully adopted the Nashua and Concord stores as part of the larger NHMARF organization! We're so excited to be working directly with these groups and sharing resources together.

There are 3 special elections coming up and those 3 seats are the keys to stopping the Congressional Republicans doing Trump & Musk’s evil bidding. We need just 1 seat to block them, 2 seats to stop them, and with all 3 we can FLIP THE HOUSE. Join us!! Monday 2/24 @7:30 EST. 👇👇 mobilize.us/s/Y9NrBb

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

🚨BREAKING: @democracyforward.org sues on behalf of unions, retirees to block access to personal and sensitive data at SSA. This case comes after SSA commissioner stepped down due to concerns about DOGE accessing data. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

Here’s the hard truth: this country’s people are tired of subsidizing billionaires. Want your cars to sell? Do it without subsidies. Want to shoot rockets into space? Get by without govt contracts. Want to build a website? Build your own internet first. We are DONE with you.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Even if it was real, there’s literally nothing the “woke agenda” could do to our government that is half as harmful as conducting massive barely-coordinated purges of longtime federal employees working on critical matters of state

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

🇺🇦 63% of Ukrainians support Zelensky's activities, and 74% consider him a patriot, according to a study by IBIF

NEW: Judge Dale Ho appoints Paul Clement to present “friend of the court” arguments on the government’s motion to dismiss Eric Adams’s charges.

This is really something

If you're feeling overwhelmed, I really hope this reaches you today.

Waves of undular bores roll over the Mid-Atlantic states today while lake effect snow cascades off of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie.

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Once again experiencing the joys of temporary dog stewardship

The updated count of measles cases in Texas now stands at 90, increased from 58 three days ago. Of these cases, 77 (86%) are children, 85 (94%) overall are unvaccinated, and 0 (0.0%) have been mentioned by RFK Jr. the Secretary of HHS. He’s far too busy casting aspersions on vaccines.

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

A Nazi sieg heil salute is not "controversial." There's nothing to debate. It is an overt symbol used by Nazis to express loyalty to Nazi ideology.

Lots of people think it's pointless to call out GOPers on capitulation to Trump. Here's why it's not. You need to make this claimed helplessness visible. You need to make it clear Jerry Moran has PLENTY of tools to rein in Musk, but has chosen not to use them. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Following Trump’s new Executive Order re: the S.F. Presidio, here’s a shareable link to an unrolled version of my highly sourced thread about the Tech Bros’ plan to build a “Freedom City” in the Presidio. The MSM has yet to connect these dots, & it’s driving me crazy! skywriter.blue/pages/did:pl...

🚨 Today's top stories: 📉 Trump’s approval is dropping—57% say he’s exceeded his power, 62% say he’s not honest 💰 GOP budget slashes $888B from Medicaid 🇺🇦 Trump spreads Putin’ lies about Ukraine 🚀 Musk calls to defund the ISS Get ALL the news ⬇️

When your elected officials are willing to take true things and spin them into misleading propaganda, it’s up to us to correct the record. Abbott wants vouchers. He’s not being honest with Texans. #txlege open.substack.com/pub/christac...

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Here's one of the warnings I gave in an article before the US election. It's devastating to see it all happening. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

When a sad song comes on the radio and you pretend you're in the video.

Protests are taking place all over the country tonight against cuts to vital federal services. Here in Washington, people are marching to SpaceX’s offices demanding Musk be ousted from the government.

In Scotland we can't stand what's happening in America!

gravedigger of american democracy. a more malign influence than john c calhoun.

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

Last month, two state senators were stopped for speeding. One reportedly claimed legislative immunity.

1. AUDIO On Monday in Fairbanks, Congressman Nick Begich (R-AK) told a constituent laid off from a job with the federal gov't that there was nothing he could do to stop budget cuts imposed by DOGE and Elon Musk Begich said he was "not in a position to approve or deny the cuts"
