For today's #birdoftheday theme of #portrait I have my favorite photo of a #bird couple with a pair of #crows in a tree in #Seattle in December. I also included a very portrait-ey shot of my office #crow being a very good model for me last year. (def. reposts, lmao)

Moskowitz: By the president’s own metrics, what accomplishments does Noem have?

• She’s holding up 200 miles of border wall.
• She’s deported fewer people than Obama.
• She’s not helping any of these red-state governors with their disasters.

Why hasn’t he fired her?

Unfortunately it’s not safe for local wildlife. 🦆

How utterly embarrassing.

It’s not the pilot’s job to remember cosplay Barbie’s blankie.

By each other’s side through it all. Happy Valentine’s Day, Gwen.

Vaccines are safe & effective—and the fact that our nation's top health official won't say that is ludicrous.
 
These numbers are a direct result of RFK Jr. & his anti-vax conspiracy theories, and it's putting Americans' health at risk.

Definitely never address him as president.

Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer?

You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice — not with their perpetrators.

So I would say to Pam Bondi: If you’re going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then you’re not a real lawyer.

They’re here! 🕊️🕊️🕊️

Great sitting down with Brian Tyler Cohen to talk about everything from the courage we saw in Minnesota, to how Democrats can be true to our values and get stuff done, to how we’re building a community of changemakers at the Obama Foundation. youtube.com/watch?v=uI-hgSE5QIw

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Portrait. Given that it's Valentine's Day, can I stretch it to this one? A pair of Mute swans displaying to each other.

The whole sky just exploded in green here in Reykjavík. It was so bright, I didn't even need my flashlight to walk out to my neighborhood beach. It's rare when we get these whole sky engulfing shows.

This season has been something else.

The Red Spider Nebula viewed through the James Webb Space Telescope. It was produced by a star like our Sun reaching the end of its life and shedding its outer layers into space. Radiation from the star’s exposed core continues to ionize clouds of outflowing gas.

Morning all. Hope you get to spend Valentines Day with a loved one ❤️

Deranged chaos agent RFK Jr recently went on a propaganda podcast and admitted that he’s not scared of germs because he used snort cocaine off of toilet seats.

We went from actual medical professionals leading US Health to this demented repugnant asshole wanting to kill us all.

Why haven’t humans been back to the moon in over 50 years? | CNN Humans haven’t been back to the lunar surface since the Apollo moon program ended over five decade ago. The reasons why go beyond science, according to experts.

Not a single one of ID representatives can articulate how women are supposed to vote in the election.
"Read the SAVE Act to find out what documentation is accepted"
Guess what? Marriage certs are not one of the docs.

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO VOTE?

‘An entire family is destroyed: Man kills woman, shoots 12-year-old in NW DC before fleeing with son A 12-year-old girl who was shot is expected to survive, and the boy was found safe with relatives in Prince George’s County.

TRAGIC: A mother was killed and her 12-year-old daughter shot in a domestic violence shooting in D.C.

This is a devastating reminder that when abusers have access to guns, the risk of death skyrockets. We must do better to protect survivors & families.

Epstein might be dead but the human trafficking goes on.

Release All The Epstein papers. All of them. It's the law of the country. Get the job done Bondi! Then leave.

🎩 Our government’s been using Epstein’s blackmail information for decades

I believe it’s one of the main reasons we can’t have a functioning government

Removing everyone implicated in the Epstein files is the key to taking our country back

We need to rip these people out of power!
