We are at the US Treasury Department standing with our allies DEMANDING that tech oligarchs stay the hell away from essential programs like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid!

We Are on Our Own From Marc | Our institutions are not going to save us. Only we can do that.

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

So, this week I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

Yes! And thank goodness you are here. I left the other place as soon as the failure of leadership was evident. So I couldn’t navigate your posts there… welcome! And THANK YOU.

Two years ago today we were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for protecting The US Capitol on January 6th 2021. Almost 4 years later the efforts to downplay, whitewash and minimize what happened appear to be succeeding. I won't ever stop standing up to them.

PSA: If the guy you want to be our next SECRETARY OF DEFENSE needs his mommy to go on tv to say he’s a good boy, he sure as shit shouldn’t be anywhere the fuck near the job of overseeing our armed forces.

Like are you even fucking kidding with this shit? Do you hear yourselves?

Good morning from the frozen South! The alpacas (which love and are built for the overnight low of 23 degrees as have) had a layer of frost on their fiber. It didn’t pick up well on camera but they glittered in the sunshine.

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...

Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky The blue bird is dead. Long live the blue sky.

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.

Kamala Harris's vote total is now well over 100,000 more than Trump's was in the high turnout election of 2020. Where are the calls from political reporters for folks to understand Kamala Harris's voters?

When I think about Joe & Mika appeasing Trump so they can maintain their comfy lives, I think about Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss enduring years of harassment for simply doing their jobs.

So when Joe defends it by saying people need to live in the real world, he should respectfully go screw himself.

the use of the history of Japanese internment as a manual rather than as a cautionary tale really sums up where we're at politically
