Where did I put my time machine? I need to go back to middle school and read this back to myself about 1000 times.
Republicans in Washington have the power to end this redistricting back and forth at any time. We can pass a national ban on gerrymandering and have fair maps in every state. But the GOP is choosing not to because they know their agenda is deeply unpopular.
@jollygoodginger.bsky.social is in DC with other vets right now standing up for democracy. He's playing General Milleys speech on repeat for them today đź’ś #LoveTheVets!
Medicare is being Cut! The WISeR program plays the game of who can hold out longer - the elderly or AI.

I was radicalized by Arlo (Alice's Restaurant)! It's taking longer than I thought...
REP. @brotherjones.bsky.social: “People want to give thoughts and prayers after a shooting, but it’s a form of theological malpractice when you pray for something you have the power to change.”

#ProudBlue Why is this not being reported on & covered more? A protestor was arrested with 70 other protestors back in early June 2025. She was charged with a felony & her bail was set to over $1Million. She was found the next day dead in her cell. They are calling it a suicide.
Trump and Dr. Oz want AI to decide which Medicare patients get care—and they're giving AI companies a profit-incentive to deny coverage. Everything about this is sick and wrong. Tell Congress to intervene NOW:

Hi, immunologist here: (a scientist who studies immune & inflammatory processes) RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation” That’s NOT how immunology works. He is an anti-science profiteer. Start calling him such.
This is a political time to wake up EVERYDAY prepared to Speak Truth to Power!.....
Incorporating the worst parts of private insurance in to the most efficient program that exists...

We already tried that one time. It worked, so rapeublicans got rid of it...

Impeach Kennedy, who lied in his confirmation hearings and has demonstrated he cannot protect the nation’s health but will cause needless illness and death.

If you are an elected official, either post a policy solution to school shootings to vote on now or don't post at all It wasn't your child, you don't get to express how heartbroken you are, and it'll happen every day of this semester unless you change the laws Shut up, do something, or resign
Unfortunately the NYT has not been a trustworthy source since at least the WMD debacle...
As we keep seeing more and more stories about ChatGPT leading to deaths it's important to frame it as a faulty product born from hubris whose true costs are passed on to everyone but the people who made it.
NEWS: Trump installs czar at DHS to oversee U.S. “election integrity” It’s not just gerrymandering, folks. The White House is gearing up to use broader federal powers to shape the 2026 election in its favor.
That would be the rapeublican party...
"Civil disobedience therefore becomes a sacred duty when the State has become lawless, or which is the same thing, corrupt. And a citizen that barters with such a State shares its corruption or lawlessness"- Gandhi

“I prefer someone who burns the flag and then wraps themselves up in the Constitution over someone who burns the Constitution and then wraps themselves up in the flag.” —Molly Ivins
ChatGPT will help you destroy yourself, your company, your dreams, and it will do it with charm, confidence, and reassurance. It is a blight on the earth.
If we can't root out the rot, we need a new party...
"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944
No longer a trustworthy source of information...
US Trump regime, under the direction of JD Vance attempted to coup d'Ă©tat President Zelenskyy of Ukraine, after the "you didn't say thank you" White House ambush in March. The US tried to recruit Ukraine's UK ambassador Valerii Zaluzhnyi who told them to get fucked & rejected their calls.
MONSTER
The last time troops policed America was in the 1770s. We fought a revolution against that king, and wrote into the Constitution the Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments to prevent it from ever happening again. Pass it along…
The stock market measures how much has been stolen from WORKERS!!!
How we got gun control in California...
If there was a real left in this country...
The old gray lady just ain't what she used to be...(has David Brooks ever been right about anything?)
Anybody remember what happened in 1973?
To be clear, the US has a treaty with Ukraine to provide defense specifically from Russia!!!

Ending slavery is the thing I am most proud of America ever doing...
"A system that brutalized, raped, and killed human beings while stealing their freedom and humanity is rotten to its core. That enslaved people were able to find resilience and build lives is a testament to their courage and spirit. There is no “other side” to the story of slavery." Dan Rather
3/3 We feel sad, scared, abandoned. But at altCDC our main feeling is rage. Lives - ours and those we serve - are on the line. Platitudes from 'leadership' and measured statements of support won’t cut it. It’s time to turn rage into action. Uplift. Protect ourselves & our neighbors. Who's with us?
WTF!!!
The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what's true. - Carl Sagan
It's the rapeublican way...
I see people fearful to talk on social media. Posts are tightening up and people are being "careful." I refuse to do that. That...is obeying in advance. I would literally rather be dead...than submit.
The jack-booted thugs the rapeublicans warned us about...
#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1945: George Orwell’s novella “Animal Farm” is first published. The story is a satire of Stalinist Russia involving a group of anthropomorphic farm animals who try to create a utopian society but wind up with a dictatorship. /1
Worth 1000 words.
Kraznov, doing whatever putin orders...

THIS. IS. THE. WAY.

As long as there are right-wing Democrats we need a new party...
TACO!!!
GOP-'good old propaganda'
As long as there are right-wing Democrats we will need a new party...
Too accurate to be comfortable...
Every accusation a confession...
An actual dictator and a wannabe dictator walk into a bar. The actual dictator points a gun at the bartender and says, “Leave.” Then he shows the wannabe dictator all the blackmail he has on him. “Now, do what I say,” he commands. Sorry, this isn’t a joke. It’s what happened yesterday in Alaska.
Integrity will not be tolerated!!!
The moment he named his platform “Truth Social” we were headed this way.
'Climate crisis rages through Europe, no action will be taken'...
Can we take a moment to remember remember Khaled al-Asaad who at 82 was tortured and be-headed by ISIS for refusing to reveal the location of historic treasures hidden away for safekeeping so history was preserved. Horrific and incredibly brave. Never let anyone rewrite history for their ideology.
On the way to a dinner party with interesting people, when Marvin Gaye came on, had to document What’s Going On in these DC streets around Capitol Hill in light of the emergency the White House told us about yesterday morning. Does this look like it warrants dramatic, overhyped response?

The minimum wage is also a crime...
The old gray lady just ain't what she used to be...
NEW: In June, ProPublica reported that the FDA has given more than 20 foreign factories a special pass to send drugs to the U.S. even though they were made at plants the agency had banned. Today, we’re publishing a list of those exempted drugs.

Republicans in Congress expect Senate Democrats to make a deal on the budget for the Department of Education. But Trump officials are saying out loud that after we pass that funding, they'll DELETE the money we agreed on. Nope - I won't support that rigged game.
It's the rapeublican way...
Federal law enforcement officers and National Guardsmen - I understand you have orders. I’m not asking you to break them. But do not go beyond what the law permits. You have legal, ethical and moral obligations to resist unlawful orders and refrain from unlawful conduct. Don’t be puppets.
Violent crime is at a 30-year low in Washington, but that doesn’t stop Trump from lying he needs to take over the city because of all the violent crime. Meanwhile, expect his Republican accomplices to remain silent while he builds his police state. Each of them is accountable.
Trump's own DOJ website still has a press release up from January pointing out that violent crime in D.C. is at its lowest in more than 30 years.
Late last night at Union Station — via @flareusa.bsky.social ATF. FBI. DEA. Homeland Security. ICE. CBP. Police. A full-blown show of force under the President’s so-called “surge.” This isn’t safety — it’s intimidation. A smokescreen to bury the Epstein Files & takeover the country.

Imagine a mother being taken away while dropping her kids off at school—a scene that shakes the core of community safety. It's crucial we discuss how our systems impact families. How can we stand together to protect our communities? #CommunityFirst #FamilyUnity
