We're not allowed to say "women" in grant proposals, Mike.

Seems simple enough.

Holy moly. What a feat. www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-adve...

Everyone talks about how it's a problem the president is an 80-year-old senile racist who makes shit up, but let's not forget that Sam Alito is a 76-year-old senile racist who also makes shit up.

This one hits hard.

When a TV guest goes the predictable route of claiming they're "paid protestors," hosts must immediately ask if they have any proof. When they sputter that they're guessing, ask if *they* were paid to come on TV and lie about it. No? You're offended by that? Gosh, I'm just guessing here like you.

Chicago is having none of this administration's BS.

For better or worse, public figures are judged when they die — their character, contributions, beliefs. It's undeniable that millions have mourned Rob Reiner's tragic death, celebrating his talent and contributions. I suspect when a certain public figure kicks the bucket, sentiments wont be the same

I'm thinking today of all my fellow veterans but especially the more than 5,000 trans service members and their families who were kicked out of the military this year despite being highly qualified and serving honorably. This injustice will be a stain on our nation's history.

The first time the Confederate flag ever paraded through the US Capitol was on January 6, 2021. The first time the White House was damaged in over 200 years since the US rebuilt in the 1820s after the British burned it in the war of 1812 was mid October, 2025.

I'm not a West Wing obsessed lib or anything but the more I see pictures of this the more fucked up I think it is. It's like he cut off one of the hands of the Lincoln memorial with an angle grinder so he could add a big gun to it.

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

This will help you find a public radio or television station that stands to lose 50 percent or more of its revenue:

Authoritarians want you to feel isolated and alone, to feel like their vision of the world is the only one. That’s why taking part in public protests matters. You connect with other people like you and you show those numbers off to the world. It’s a great feeling. Try it!

Well this couldn’t have come at a better time www.bbc.com/news/article...

filling time on air until the new pope is announced is known as "pontiffication"

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

Staple this to RFK Jr’s forehead.

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Pulling Stefanik nom is a sign of GOP panic. If they think her R+20 district would be in play were she to leave, they realize they are in deep political peril re: 2026. As they are.

If you can’t be trusted to admit when you are wrong then you can’t be trusted to do what’s right. This is about running. This is not about running.

(1) If it’s a statutory challenge: convince Congress to pass a law. (2) If it’s a constitutional challenge: try to amend the Constitution. (3) If that fails: rally voters to elect politicians to do (1) and/or (2). (4) If that also fails: question whether he is wildly popular.

1/🧵 Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at strikingly similar rates (84% liberal, 86% centrist, 82% conservative). This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.

the tesla protest might objectively be among the most successful in history already just in terms of immediate response, if you consider they forced the world’s most powerful person & its most wealthy to fully degrade themselves like used car salesmen on live TV while the whole world watched agog.

Something that’s very clear is that Trump is old and checked out. He wants to play the role of president but has zero interest in doing the job and is happy to outsource the real work to Musk, Vought and a crew of feral zealots.

To all my Bluesky friends, please join me in this effort to fight back and protect our democracy! 💙 #Resist
