The Republicans are going all the way to the Supreme Court to starve hungry children but please tell me again how the shutdown is the fault of the Democrats.

Are they going to start paying taxes??

Eric Trump to the Financial Times: “If there’s one family that hasn’t profited off politics, it’s the trump family.”

They really think we’re all idiots.

Don’t threaten us with a good time!

All I can say for ANY Senate Democrat who votes yes for so-called funding bill - don't ever text, call, or email me for money again. My check book is closed to anyone who votes for this!

When I invest, I expect a return. NO MORE!

Thank you for being the only person I can find on Bluesky who actually live chats the games

This is what House Republicans voted for tonight.

Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.

Happy Sunday! ☀️
I'm not lazy. 😺
I'm just recharging my battery. 🌞😸

Senate run 2026??? From the hood to the holler!

Those of us who work in gender medicine are not going anywhere What’s more, we’re expanding.

“We’re not going anywhere. What’s more: we’re expanding.”

Nearly a dozen of Minnesota’s foremost experts on gender-affirming care collaborated on this beautiful op-ed in today’s Strib. No paywall.

Stephen. Remind people that they’re not helpless

A Conspiracy Theorist Is Officially Running Our Health Department RFK Jr. was confirmed today.

Kennedy, who has no medical or science degree, has voiced skepticism about major vaccines for years. He has also endorsed fringe conspiracy theories, and backed those views again in his confirmation hearings last month. 🙃⤵️

Nobody elected Elon Musk. So why is Trump granting him all-access powers to get rid of funding for Medicaid, Social Security and more?! We need to get Musk's hands off our money and stop the Musk takeover NOW.

A man jumping, under the words "Make Time For Joy"

Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.

Elizabeth Warren Says She Plans to Challenge Elon Musk Directly “The number one thing people can do right now is speak out.”

Elizabeth Warren is not mincing her words when it comes to Elon Musk.

"The Trump vision of America... in which billionaires are on top and everyone else is left in the dirt."

Donald Trump says he wants to rid our country of rapists and criminals.

Is he going to resign?

Kind of sucks that we didn't at least get a Roaring Twenties before what's about to come

Wow.

At WH press briefing just now, press sec Karoline Leavitt was asked how many immigrants arrested by ICE under the Trump admin have criminal records.

Leavitt: "All of them, because they illegally broke our nation's laws, and therefore they are criminals as far as this administration goes."

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

Congratulations to Donald Trump, who just committed his first impeachable offense.

I'm trying to keep up with this; the party of pro-life has
1) ended cancer research
2) pulled us out of the WHO
3) Frozen communications and updates for the NIH and the CDC
4) raised prescription prices previously capped
5) out of Paris Climate Accords again
6) FDA and HHS gone Dark

A tweet by Kyle Griffin. The tweet reads: 'Pamela Hemphill, who pleaded guilty for her role in the Capitol riot and was sentenced to 60 days in prison, has refused her Trump pardon: "Accepting a pardon would only insult the Capitol police officers, rule of law and, of course, our nation." "I pleaded guilty because I was guilty, and accepting a pardon also would serve to contribute to their gaslighting and false narrative." bbc.com/news/'.

One of them has seen the light and walked toward it.

Remember:

It can be sad. It can be tragic. It can be disgusting and depressing and discouraging.

But it doesn’t have to mean this is who we are now. It’s what our country is doing right now and that’s not the same as who we are.

Who we are isn’t up to him.
