is the goal merit or is the goal segregation?

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

Trudeau starts by speaking directly to Americans. This will raise costs for *you*.

Ya boy is not participating in any traditional Grammys week celebrations,,, if ya catch me outside,,, we giving back to this area and its families and first responders. 👍🏾

A few things Trump just made more expensive for you:

Furniture
Power tools
Modelo
Refrigerators
Microwaves
Clothes
Bananas
Tequila
Maple syrup

I'm not breathing a sigh of relief. This chaos and confusion is standard operating procedure under a Trump presidency. Until we learn more, it certainly reads like Trump is plowing ahead with his plans that will crash the economy and make communities suffer.

yyyyyeah maybe we shouldn’t just “relax”

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

- people at the Defense Intelligence Agency who want to observe...Holocaust Remembrance Day.
- apparently, any federal celebration of...Black History Month.

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

Love to see it

SZA announced as a guest for Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show.

I think it’s really important we identify the companies that are doing the right thing and reward them with our business.

I didn’t want to get anyone’s hopes up until I had her in my hands, but look who made it to us after all.

Her new name is going to be Winter, in honor of how frickin’ cold it is, and a reminder that it’s always coldest just before a season of beautiful rebirth.

Welp! Time to look for a new job!

I think I'm just gonna... stay very unplugged today.

EO: "the immutable biological reality of sex"

Biological reality:

Unleashing American Energy – The White House By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:  Section 1.

It’s the Trump check all over again… it’s that easy to fall in line with fascism.
