Trumpty-Dumpty is defunding PBS. What he calls "bias" some of us call "facts Trumpty-Dumpty doesn't like."

“Eugenics isn’t just about eradicating the lesser people like myself, like people with disabilities, it’s about attaching disability to marginalized communities in order to slate them for eradication.”

Fantastic crash course in eugenics, ableism & anti-blackness from @imanibarbarin.bsky.social

Daddy Putin isn't in charge of this one...

So we can get Daddy Putin to send back his prisoners but Bukele must be too scary for the orange felon.

Republicans would rather bankrupt your grandma and gut healthcare than just tax the damn billionaires.

5 more work days till Spring Break! Bucky is excited!

Weird how the MAGA bros just stopped asking how my 401k was doing…

National Park Service rewrites Underground Railroad history amid DEI purge It follows a massive purge of articles about soldiers of color.

The National Park Service is retelling the Underground Railroad story as an episode of "Black/White cooperation," and has removed a photo of abolitionist Harriet Tubman.

Trump’s USDA has put thousands of farmers in an untenable limbo, by not honoring their signed contracts. Farmers need the money they planned on and are owed. Last night, Senate Republicans blocked my amendment to protect farmers. It’s not acceptable to abandon farmers this way.

This doesn't have anything to do with the economy. It's Trump's Vengeance Tour, pure and simple.

When people act like MeToo is just a footnote of what’s happening, they’re wrong—it’s part and parcel of the whole conservative package. Sexual violence is a pillar of who they are. The glorification of abuse extends to all of their policies and makes up their strongest identity

The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

It's not too late to register for this Saturday's Freeport Autism Conference. I will be presenting in the afternoon about preventing sexual exploitation through education 💙

Glad I snapped this photo of my daffodils the other day. This gloomy day needed some cheer!

Trump issued an executive order invoking a wartime law the Alien Enemies Act of 1798—a little-known law—would allow the government to deport without due process.

…

Nothing says “party of the everyman” quite like two born-to-riches nepo baby billionaires selling $80,000+ cars on the White House lawn.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

Rep. Nadler @RepJerryNadler I am monitoring the situation regarding the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil and look forward to receiving additional information regarding the specifics of this case. But let's be clear: The warrantless arrest of any legal permanent resident seemingly solely over their speech is a chilling, McCarthyesque action in response to the exercise of first amendment rights to free speech. Such action is a frightening violation of immigration law that will not make Jewish students safer on campus and will only feed the Trump Administration's political war on education and hollow lip service on discrimination against minorities. If the Trump White House were serious about rooting out antisemitism in America, they should start with their own Administration. 4:52 PM • 3/10/25 • 19 Views
