“The Democrats didn’t do enough on Gaza, so I withheld my vote to make a statement.” “Well, Trump won and now he’s gonna destroy Gaza.” “Yep. We’re paying the price for the Democrats’ incompetence.” “‘We?’ The Gazans are paying the price, not us” Pause. “I needed to make a statement.”

Everyone needs to hear this. This is not about opposing Trump and the GOP agenda. This is about fighting for the future and what can be. "The way out of survival mode is to imagine a positive vision of the future."

Oh this is excellent..

I just voted against Kristi Noem’s confirmation. Our immigration system is in desperate need of reform — but it won’t be fixed by organized acts of cruelty. We need a DHS Secretary who puts the rule of law and constitution first — not the caprice of the President.

Ryan Turner has been on the frontlines with the @calfire.bsky.social Madera-Mariposa-Merced Unit fighting the wildfires in California. Incidents like fire whirls, which form as winds pick up flames, have severely impacted crews’ ability to fight the fires.

Community is the antidote to despair. Happy to host! 🌹

We want to shop locally, and we want to support people with good values—so no maga.

Representative literature helps our students learn their past, grow their minds, and pursue their dreams. This move is a step backward and an attack on our intellectual freedom. abcnews.go.com/US/departmen...

Ted Cruz says that Trump’s threat to take over Greenland is a ‘very serious policy proposal.’ He then says that he responded to the Danish Ambassador to the U.S., who told him ‘Greenland isn’t for sale,’ with, ‘everything is for sale.’

This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak. Going to be interesting to see how the administration responds

the way this shit always goes down w/ the far-right is that somebody popular does or says something genuinely transgressive & winkingly tries to hide behind plausible deniability. then ppl copy it bc they have either been waiting for permission or want to troll. soon it just becomes a thing they do

NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group: "The proponent's broader agenda is not reducing risk for the Company but abolition of diversity initiatives." - Costco Board

I suspected for a while now that the takeover of twitter and changes to facebook are deliberately meant to train AI on more open rightwing belligerence.

At least one of the inspectors general Trump fired says the removals may be invalid because they appear to violate federal law requiring a 30-day notification to Congress. "At this point, we do not believe the actions taken are legally sufficient…." www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

Leader of the Proud Boys hate group wants retribution on those who prosecuted members of the group. Trump put a target on the backs of the prosecutors who were doing their job to make their communities safer. Trump is a hero to criminals. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

🔥U.S. Navy Veteran Laura Hubka DOES NOT hold back calling out Sen. Joni Ernst: "Ernst has an opportunity to show that she is truly the independent voice that she claims to be whenever she asks us for our votes. We shouldn't be playing games when it comes to running the Pentagon."

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.

PLEASE stop with the “no more elections” narrative. There WILL be elections and clearly, republicans are extremely worried about 2026. Obeying and manifesting in advance helps no one. I beg. 🙏🏽💙🇺🇸 www.politico.com/live-updates...

Imagine the message to America's enemies that the Secretary of Defense - normally a position filled by overwhelming bipartisan consensus - has squeaked into his job with a Vance tie-breaker after repeated concerns about his character and lack of experience.

Here’s something I wrote last week that is maybe important.

This post nailed it. The point of attacking Bishop Budde is to make everyone else afraid to speak up. If they succeed at that… that’s tantamount to acquiescence. Our job is to get LOUDER every time they try this tactic, and show support for those who are speaking out publicly.

Make sure to donate to the ACLU as well they're currently suing trump in order to block "fast-track" deportations they need all the help they can get.

I wanted to read Bishop Budde's book "How We Learn To Be Brave" but didn't want to shell out to Amazon. I went to the library website and I found this. They have two copies, both checked out and 20 people have holds on it.

How can some one even take people like this seriously? You ask them for info and this is how they reply? Palestinians last line of defense in america? Spoiled 20 year olds who never grew out of their angsty teenage tumbr phase. 😅

@audleyzdarke.bsky.social poor lost souls thinks they're accomplishing something by being a useful fool, I pray for Palestinian.
