offense that falls outside of the scope of any official acts immunity that may be afforded to a President or Vice President.
This should be part of the anti-corruption narrative that guides Democrats for the next two years. Customs and norms are no longer enough. @marcelias.bsky.social
❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this.
Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.
I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation.
I will not be silenced.
It doesn't seem hard. Just say "this isn't America. We don't watch someone die on live TV, even if we think they don't deserve to live. And more and more, Trump doesn't represent America."
Jessica Watkins just became the first Black woman to lead a crew to orbit. 🚀
She’s a geologist who worked on NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover science team. Now she’s commanding NASA’s Crew-13 aboard the International Space Station.

The common thread in Pete Hegseth's rant to the troops, JD Vance suggesting Talarico is a pedophile, Brendan Carr calling the Trump ads aired with tax dollars "normal force PSAs," and Eric Schmitt fabricating a Jack Smith conspiracy is the whole GOP is incentivized to be performatively evil.
We have seen more than enough evidence to demonstrate how sexual violence has become abhorrently normalized in this broken system.
It is well past time for a mass global women's movement supported by any and all decent, honorable men.
The patriarchal status quo is unsustainable for
*everyone.*

My friend Micah Reddy, a journalist with dual South African and British nationality, has gone missing while working on a story in Djibouti. If you know anyone in Djibouti who might be able to help, please get in touch. If not, please share this post so more people find out about Micah. It's urgent.
Illinois Senator Dick Durbin on Wednesday discouraged Democrats from engaging in the same political gamesmanship over Supreme Court nominees as their Republican colleagues if the party wins the majority in November. @kelseyreichmann.bsky.socialwww.courthousenews.com/durbin-pours...
Countries around the world should impose sanctions against the United States. They should block tRump, his filthy family and his entire corrupt administration or any republican from entering their countries. It is time to stop letting fascist spread their hatred.
In the 25 years since 9/11, the United States has spent $8 trillion+ on wars that have taken millions of lives in the name of fighting "terror."
Can you imagine if we had instead invested those funds here on climate, health care, housing, and education?
The clownish rituals at the Trump cult gathering shouldn't distract us from the plain fact that he led his followers in a pledge to cheat in the midterms. He used the word "cheat."
Trump: "Please right your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States. That loves us so much he can't even breath. That I will go out with my family, my friends, I'll do it any way - I don't care if I'm registered or not, I'm going to try to cheat like hell..."
This happened on my first day of college as a newly minted, freshly 18 year old adult, right before I was going to leave for my first class.
And everything has gone downhill since.
I don't hate America, but I am so, SO disappointed in her.
Who knew voting for the criminal/rapist/business fraud over the smart black female career cival servant would have such dire consequences? It's a mystery!
I should add that the uncritical coverage of all this by the press including many in the mainstream media that celebrated Trump's illegal attack on Venezuela as a "success" deserves scrutiny & criticism of its own. As does the complicity of many in Trump's cabinet and the compliance of the Congress.
Sure hope those who attacked Senator Ossoff for just mentioning a woman’s name will respond to the maggot and unattractive references here. If the Senator was disrespectful, what are these remarks—disrespectful to the tenth power?
