Next time someone in Congress glibly dismisses your need for healthcare, remember that they have some of the best healthcare in the country. And it was paid for by YOU.

"Where are the Democratic leaders? We should have been dancing on this (the "We're all going to die!" remarks of Sen. Joni Earnst to her constituents who complained of healthcare cuts) two seconds after she said it!"

-Rev. Al Sharpton

He's exactly right. Where are they?

Thank you!

It's so gorgeous, even in winter-like conditions (winter for people from the south; spring for everyone else)

We enjoyed Memorial Day weekend in @RMNP, Estes Park and Boulder. Even with sketchy weather, Colorado, you have my heart! #familytime #hikeforlife #snowseason #untilnexttime #we💚ourNationalParks #morkandmindyhouse

The student paper at the college at which I teach reports a "tsunami of takedown requests" from international students terrified of being targeted for innocuous, legitimate op-eds & opinions.. Many ask in person--leave no trace in writing. Reminds me of my father's account of studying in the USSR.

When your stylist works her magic, you have to share! It's been 5 months since I've made it or the salon, but the results were worth the wait 💇🏽‍♀️

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Never fails

If you don't know what the SAVE Act is, please look it up! This will impact not only women, but military and elderly citizens

The SAVE Act would require citizens to provide documentary proof of citizenship to register for federal elections, but 146 million Americans don't have passports — nearly as many as the 153 million who voted in 2024. Vote NO on SAVE Act.

okay now that you all have gotten a taste of America's rational and predictable new trade policy, everyone who wants to build your new factories here just form an orderly line

The tariff policy changes every ten minutes. What a joke.

It’s nuclear grade incompetence that would be laughable except they’re ruining people’s lives for sport. Just shameful.

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

Another fun night of watching @uconn.bsky.social women's basketball team do what they do best - win! #finalfour #ncaa #marchmadness

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling.

People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯.

America, we have a problem!

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Brandon Bradford (@BrandonLBradfor ). The tweet reads: "Deporting Americans without due process then saying they no longer get due process because they aren’t in America means no one has rights, FYI. Nightmare scenario."

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Why do we have to always be so freaking polite. She was right, Hillary was right...trust the women, and we wouldn't be here!

RIP to the U.S. Institute of Peace — nearly all staff members have been fired.

Just a reminder: having a functional moral compass right now is going to make you feel bad all the time; don’t mistakenly hate yourself for that.

Here's an unsolicited plug for Josh Marshall's Talking Points Memo media site: I've started my day with @tpm.bsky.social since the G.W. Bush administration, relying on its deep political insight and dot connecting. Check it out, and consider becoming a member to support what it's doing so well:
