This does happen. 😢
I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.
Catherine, as I watch you interviewing members of the Jewish community and asking how they are doing, I’m wondering how YOU are doing, Jewish sister. This is a tough night. Hold yourself tight as we stand together and fight antisemitism and all hate. Always ensure that you are getting self care.
She’s Jewish, so she doesn’t have much influence over the Pope.😉
President Leo XIV. I can dig it.
Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator. In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”
Never forget.
Breaking News: Democrat James Malone just defeated a Republican in a Pennsylvania district that voted for Trump by over 15 points. This is a huge embarrassment for Elon Musk, who urged people to vote for the GOP candidate.
Silence aint an option any longer......
WTF? This is getting goddamned ridiculous! Democrats should be holding the line, not crossing over it!
An administration that truly cared about children's health wouldn't have installed JFK Jr as HHS secretary. @jillrose.bsky.social explains how rolling back vaccines puts lives at risk: www.governing.com/policy/lets-...
Aaaaaaand he just told the debunked Autism lie con artists have used for over a decade, and just said a school made a kid transgender (they didn't). With that I'm out. This is a worthless load of crap and waste of my time.
Screw the signs. Be loud and get escorted out without resisting #GoodTrouble
Musk appears to pull up his pants as Trump says, "... and we are just getting started". This is an alpha up-regulator (Musk feels off his game in this moment, and is trying to re-assert his confidence) #SOTU #BodyLanguageExpert #BodyLanguage
He’s got nothing to lose by lying. He’s a lame duck President who faces no consequences.
Vance's and Johnson's respective tie lengths are not an accident. Johnson feels more beholden to Trump, Vance less so. More on this later. #SOTU #BodyLanguageExpert #BodyLanguage
WTF? So disappointing that Mark Warner is sucking up to the orange POS.
This flew under the radar, but Trump says his administration won't enforce an anti-money laundering law that requires corporations to disclose information on who really owns shell companies to the Treasury. "Drain the swamp."
I beg to differ with Sen. Mark Kelly—Trump knew EXACTLY what he was doing when he attacked President Zelensky—he was publicly pledging his allegiance to Putin because he is bought and paid for by Putin.
Utah is proposing to hire university presidents in secret, after what lawmakers call a "failure" in past Utah State University searches. The Utah Media Coalition worries a lack of transparency and public participation may have negative consequences. #utpol
Lech Walesa, the former Polish president and Solidarity trade union leader who played a leading role in the fall of Communism, signed a letter to US President Donald Trump expressing 'horror' at his argument with Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskiy reut.rs/4br80n4

Leader of the UK Liberal Democrats, Sir Ed Davey: “President Trump’s attack on the brave & dignified President Zelensky left everyone shocked & appalled. We’ve entered a new era. One where the US prefers to align itself with tyrants like Putin rather than its democratic partners” Cold, hard truth.
Lying on an industrial scale from Trump. 3 big lies in 56 secs here. 1. “We’ve given much more than Europe”. LIE. EU has given 49.5% of funding, the US 43%. 2. “We gave $350 billion”. LIE. US gave between $120-180 billion. 3. “Europe get their money back”. LIE. Over 65% of EU funding is gifted.
Yes, Zelensky needs to remove Trump from his “this will make good TV” environment.
"Nancy Kerrigan must mend the breach with Tonya Harding--or resign"

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist
Federal Workers!!!
He’s going to try SO hard to pretend that what he had previously learned to be true (vaccines save lives) are suddenly not true BY MAGIC via the federal government under the 🍊 💩 with zero factual data. I wish one goddamn person in state, federal, or local government would show some spine!
Guaranteed Trump already has a side deal with Putin and the American people will never learn about it—but I’m sure it concerns sacrificing our democracy in exchange for Trump’s personal wealth and power.
Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed. Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly. Yet another reason he must be rejected.
Diversity is a fact: All kinds of people exist. Equity is a goal: All kinds of people deserve a chance at success. Inclusion is how we get to equity. By including them, they can achieve success. It's that simple.

In light of the news of @markzaidesq.bsky.social being targeted by Trump, I am reposting this. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/ther...
Cari Champion: “It’s not pocketbook issues. I thought it was about eggs. It was never about eggs. It was about race. It’s about making sure that there is white supremacy in this country, and if we’re honest we will say that.”
The world’s richest person, without any actual authority, is infiltrating entire govt agencies and gaining access to sensitive info. And it's being done in an effort to slash federal spending in the name of "efficiency" so America’s wealthy can get another huge tax cut.
Marc, does the retaliatory firing of FBI agents who worked on the Jan 6 cases and were simply doing their jobs fall under presidential immunity as he’s being sued? I would think not because Trump’s retaliation is because of the investigations of him as an ordinary citizen and at most as a candidate.
!!!!
I’m sure that if AOC roused an angry mob of Democrats to storm the Capitol and smear their poop on the walls, Donald and the Republicans would call it the worst terrorist attack in history without a shred of irony.
NEW: DoJ employees asked for guarantees in writing for the deferred resignation Fork in the Road plan. They were sent this. It strips the signer of the right to sue, and also says if you commit a felony, you’re not eligible for federal employment. Oh, the irony.
Which makes it all the more insidious.
Large group of demonstrators gathered along St. George Boulevard for an anti-ICE protest, joining a nationwide movement in support of immigrant rights.
My father attended school with him.
Me!! Pick me!! (Jumps up and down) 🙋♀️
There is a big difference between people who break the law in order to protect innocent people from harm and those who follow the law knowing that innocent people will be harmed or killed. We must ask ourselves who we will be in this moment.
FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA. There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.
This! This, this, this!⬇️
I found the cutest little dolls at the local crafts shop.
US Figure Skating says several members of the skating community were on the plane that crashed in the Potomac River. Russian state media reported two Russian figure skaters were on the plane reut.rs/42tSmF3
This sounds HIGHLY illegal!
The Orange Buffoon is the worst thing that has happened to this country in 50 years…
I know there are a lot of problems in the world, but this really breaks my heart: Beautiful, innocent creatures succumbing to climate change.😢
The tech industry’s liberal reputation is misleading. Its reactionary tendencies – celebrating wealth, power and traditional masculinity – have been clear since the dotcom mania of the 1990s.
The RFK JR circus with his actress wife schmoozing with Megyn Kelly behind him but facing the camera was just jarring! #DoNotConfirm
NEVER forget!
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, we honor the memory of the millions of Jews, Roma and others killed in the Holocaust by Nazis and fascists.
This is an understatement.
SHE GOT HIS ASS h/t @acyn.bsky.social
JD Vance now OWNS that shit. If we survive Hegseth as DS, you better believe Vance will try to distance himself from this tie-breaking Senate vote in favor of this POS when he tries to run for POTUS in 2028. Let’s remind him every fucking day.
The GOP is now a party of snake-oil salesmen, with the 🍊 💩 as the head of the snake.
I’ve introduced a resolution to the 8th Amendment, clarifying that if someone is as fucking stupid as Andy Ogles, launching them into the sun is not considered cruel or unusual punishment
I finally figured out how to create lists today 🤓
The thing about reddit is that they basically, in a semi-decentralized way, saw themselves becoming a chud website and... stopped and reversed course
The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH** * Currently paused by Executive Order ** Grant reviews now all canceled www.kcur.org/news/2025-01...
Trump wants your elderly parents dead because it’s cheaper that way.

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.
So glad to see you here on BlueSky, Neal!!
feels like at this point the entire Trump administration could carve swastikas into their foreheads and the media would be all 'let's not rush to judgement'
Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees that if you don't want to be compared to Nazis, stop referencing shit from Hitler's speeches, stop supporting far-right extremists in Europe, and stop making Nazi hand gestures. Can you not see what we mean?
Brilliant.
I wish that had been the ONLY thing Fetterman did. 🙄
I just saw a post on Facebook start with ‘Convicted Rapist Mark Zuckerberg….’ Let’s see how long this no fact checking lasts.
