American democracy was the dream of my ancestors from Poland, Austria, Germany and Russia. I prioritize dissent because without our Constution and three co-equal branches of government, Jews and everyone else are subject to the whims of whoever is in power.

The right to peacefully protest is fundamental. It is in the Constitution. No president can nullify it—because in the United States of America, we have no kings. Join @indivisible.org and more this weekend to make your voice heard: www.nokings.org

Blue sky is a HUGE disappointment. I’m on Substack, see u there.

California prison gynecologist accused of ‘horrific’ abuse of patients in lawsuit

I appreciate that Dems are fighting back. That said, Senator Schumer, it is time to retire. www.youtube.com/live/U3hvyqU...

Featured story: Rosa Isela Batalla Morales may receive what few mothers in her place do: some measure of justice from the legal system. In an extremely rare move, a Texas grand jury has indicted the construction company that employed her son when he died.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is threatening that Democrats could leverage the government funding deadline of March 14 to stop Trump.

NEW CBS reports that Trump almost FLOODED the Central Valley of California by instructing the Army Corps of Engineers to release billions of gallons of water from two reservoirs in California's Central Valley. 1/

An unelected billionaire, with no actual Congressional authority or govt experience, has access to Treasury payment systems and sensitive information about millions of Americans who receive Social Security checks, tax refunds, and other payments. What could go wrong? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...

Yes, he is your party’s president and leader. You have supported him in the past and you support him now. He is tangibly hurting people in Maine, and you will prattle on, act concerned, and do nothing. You will own everything he does to hurt Mainers and everyone else.

Senator Susan Collins is a fascist collaborator and is 100% responsible for Felon 47's policies. Period.

When Trump³⁴ says he enacted tariffs to fight drugs flowing into US, remember that hours after being sworn-in, he pardoned one of the most notorious drug dealers/pushers of all time www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Hallelujah! 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸

Did you know? In 1968, 24 Black men in Pittsburgh revolutionized emergency medicine. The Freedom House Ambulance Service was established to provide emergency medical care to underserved Black neighborhoods—creating the world’s first paramedics.

I’m telling everyone: Do not open the door or say a word unless you’re expecting someone and know exactly who it is. Know your rights. Pass these around…

Ope! The bill would make it “unlawful for a person to discharge genetic material without the intent to fertilize an embryo.” www.wlbt.com/2025/01/22/m...

Great that groups are standing up. Hope it continues!!

49 YEARS of BUCKLEY v. VALEO made CITIZENS UNITED POSSIBLE

15 years of Citizens United have shown us that money corrupts politics. We are going to have to take back our democracy from the forces of greed! #StopTheOligarchy

Epic courage here.

About fucking time democrats do something!!

I hate that we already know how this ends. Hegseth confirmed anyway and his ex-wife and sister-in-law having their lives ruined by death threats and harassment.

Based on their research, David Lazer and Sandra González-Bailón anticipate that Meta's elimination of penalties for sharing misinformation will cause a flood from some Pages– which are still the most effective means to spread content on Facebook. www.techpolicy.press/mark-zuckerb...

Take back your attention.

Trump has officially reversed President Biden’s executive order aimed at lowering prescription drug costs for Medicare and Medicaid users. What does this mean for affordable healthcare?

Sen. Raphael Warnock holds the same pulpit Martin Luther King Jr. once preached from. He told Morning Edition that "your life's project should be longer and larger than your lifespan."

May he burn furiously, quickly, and fizzle to a puddle of goo.

JD Vance Sworn In On Stack Of Printed 4chan Greentexts theonion.com/jd-vanc...

Guy who just put up a phony crypto scheme claims his predecessors ran a “radical and corrupt establishment.”

He's already slurring his words, looks confused and has never looked more orange. What an abomination.

“First they came for the Trade Unionists, and I said nothing because I was not a Trade Unionist…”

Trump admitted it multiple times during his “victory rally” yesterday. Our “leaders” will do nothing. The guardrails have failed. What do we do about it?
