As @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social said: Mike Johnson leads an NPC — Non Player Congress

Dear Do Something Crowd: Here’s something useful you can do. Bonus points if you can actually go to Florida and knock doors. If Dems win these 2 Florida seats plus the #NYCD21 seat, we take back control of the House of Representatives. #FlipTheHouse #TakeBackTheHouse #FLCD1 #CD1 #FLCD6 #CD6 #CD21

Hateful. Trump has canceled Kennedy Center's national tour of Finn, my friend @chrisnee.bsky.social's musical about a shark who likes to sparkle. The “joy bomb” show about love, acceptance, & being yourself, opened to rave reviews in December & was nominated for the prestigious Helen Hayes award.

CORRUPTION: Musk is abusing his position to block investigations into his own corporations⬇️

Bingo. Say this. Every day. Every hour. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

ICYMI: Republicans revealed a budget plan today to lift the debt limit and spend $4.5 TRILLION in tax cuts for wealthy Americans and corporations. So much for the party of fiscal responsibility. apnews.com/article/hous...

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Hi Bluesky! Glad to be here.

Elon should go asap and figure out what’s going on.

The "cruel" @karaswisher.bsky.social and the "deceitful" @profgalloway.com try to make sense of Elon's OpenAI bid: open.spotify.com/episode/3Q7y...

The drunken rapist secretary of defense cannot spell bureaucracy and doesn't know what the little red underline means when you're typing. But his mind is "sharp."

Donald Trump and House Republicans have turned over the keys to the government’s most private information to a billionaire donor. I joined my Democratic colleagues to introduce a bill that would put strong safeguards in place to stop outside access to Americans’ most sensitive data.

Utterly predictable. "Trump could also weaken the economy by prosecuting his political opponents or otherwise eroding the rule of law—creating instability that dampens investment."

As companies shell out big bucks for Super Bowl commercials, remember that many said they were forced to raise prices due to inflation. Also remember that average profit margins in nearly every sector in the S&P 500 are running near or above 10-year highs. Hello???

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

Congrats to Patrick Mahomes on achieving “one of the good ones” status through his blonde wife. Go Birds.

“This is the largest data breach and the largest IT security breach in our country’s history—at least that’s publicly known. You can’t un-ring this bell. Once these DOGE guys have access to these data systems, they can ostensibly do with it what they want.” www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

the first good post i think i've ever seen from a democratic committee account

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

This !!

Children are now starving. Vaccines have stopped. A rented ambulance can no longer come to the site of a bombing. Days into the Musk/Trump attack on US foreign aid, here’s what’s happening already wapo.st/42J2gCF

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here at Bluesky for the follows and the conversations and the constructive, substantive interaction. It's a great forum, a great resource for circulating and talking about the news, and -- most of all -- a pleasure. I'm grateful!

BREAKING: AOC blames crash on Trump / Elon “I represent LGA Airport as well as workers for JFK. Trump gutted the Aviation Safety committee last week. Air traffic controllers, already understaffed, got Trump’s “buyout” this wk with a 1 wk ultimatum to decide. It’s not DEI - it’s him. And Elon too.”
