We are excited to announce our 1st sweatshirt: the "Whale U" hoodie, which celebrates Whale University (all the educational classes we offer). Another exciting addition to our online store is the “Indy-pendent” sticker featuring T65A5 Indy, plus sticker 4-packs. www.orcabehaviorinstitute.org/shop

It was never about “freedom.” It was always about who was in control.

RFKjr gave orders to Dr. Susan Monarez for her not to speak to US Senators. He put a gag order on the senate-confirmed CDC director. Scream this story from every rooftop. Impeach and remove RFKjr.

This is the playbook, folks. If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away. Do not be quiet in this moment.

Trans rights are human rights.

If this became a weekly series, it would run longer than The Simpsons.

BREAKING: Justice Gregory Carro has dismissed the first degree murder charge against Luigi Mangione in his state case, finding the DA put legally insufficient evidence before the grand jury. More TK.

Why Colbert's cancellation marks a dangerous new stage for the culture at large

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's new anti-media policy at the Pentagon will be _incredibly_ useful during the Martial Law era of American history that is right around the corner and is the sole reason he was given the job he has

Relax. 🙂

Bright blue eyes too--many Irish. It's ludicrous.

Needing more love in the world & Pedro spreads it- thank you. All the best and highest for you both.

You cannot silence us.

We need to give up the framing that they imprisoned a man in El Salvador “mistakenly.” Their actions prove this is intentional. Did they mean for this to be the trial run? Don’t know. But they’re running hard with it. That’s not a “mistake.” That’s fascism.

Fuck John Roberts. So called chief justice who wrecks the constitution daily these days.

And just following orders will never be a valid excuse. In this critical time in history, we all need to stand up and do what's right, regardless of who your boss is. Credit: Films for Action

Sharing this appeal bc I care about our country & people & future. Instead of allowing ourselves (the luxury) to go ecstatic over C Booker's speech, channel the emotional fervor to 1. Fight- action the coup 2.End the duopoly-3rd party NOW. BO got me 2x w his oratory 'hope n change'-was just talk

It was like a miracle and just disappeared.

Good thing DEI wasn't the reason he was hired. What a joke!

They don’t care. If it all goes to shit and they start to lose the reigns of power, they’ll hop on their private jets and head for countries with no extradition. They’ll live like kings and queens on the money they pilfered from the U.S. Treasury.

excellent point- attack on a sovereign nation is correct. 'They' use a reason-excuse that Gree8 Lnd 'isn't doing good enough job protecting the arctic' (no evidence). NATO must align on this one or it will be world takeover by dictators. What is our destiny? We are born as free souls, not prisoners

Trump Tower NYC has been the epicenter of Russian money laundering ops for decades. Not to mention that Russian money has kept the Trump Org afloat after multiple bankruptcies. If Trump doesn't bow down to Putin, he may find a horse head in his bed.

Now we have #Trump threatening #Canada and #EU if they form a trade alliances, but can you sell us some eggs bro? ‘If the EU works with Canada in order to do economic harm to the USA, large scale Tariffs, far larger than currently planned, will be placed on them both’

No one close to him in American politics/congress-bc ALL lack integrity, leadership, courage, honesty. D esp have hoodwinked& EXPLOITED us for votes-never intending to enact basic equality, women's rights, universal health care,non predatory student loans (JB voted banks1st!) bc greed destroys souls

It’s time for Democrats to demand a special prosecutor and not let up until one is appointed.

The only legitimate reason for not investigations because you don’t believe a crime was committed, not because “the mission was successful” www.nytimes.com/2025/03/27/u...

courage and integrity Mark Kelly. A great person. My senator.

#beach #dogs #photography a moment of calm, perhaps before a storm.

thinking of one of abraham lincoln's great quotes this morning: "As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy."

Yesterday, I fondly remembered my dear friend Leonard Nimoy, who would have turned 94. His legacy lives on in our hearts. Just days ago, Bill Shatner celebrated his 94th birthday — wishing him continued health and happiness. Live long and prosper, my friends.

*Please share so EVERYONE hears this - THIS is the level of anger, rage and indignation we need to collectively be showing, voicing and channelling right now. NONE of this is 'Ok' and we need to let them KNOW. @kendallybrown (IG & TT) is speaking for ALL of us.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Commonality that creates a community. They lean heavily into Christian values as a commonality, and this religion became closely aligned with the Republican Party around the mid-century by Conservative design. So you have these uneducated white people who have a need to belong, clinging to their

MAGA voters tend to be less educated than their counterparts. People who lack an education tend to struggle more with their identity. Being that their base is primarily white, they lack the ethnic

Here is an article that provides some detail on how Senators voted. It is pure insanity that anyone voted to confirm Hegseth, Kennedy, Gabbard, Noem to name just a few, unless you are all in on destroying the country. ballotpedia.org/How_senators...
