This is a great win for North Carolina and Justice Riggs!
BREAKING: A federal court blocks a months-long Republican effort to disenfranchise thousands of voters in North Carolina, affirming Justice Allison Riggs’ victory over Jefferson Griffin in the state Supreme Court election.

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet.
Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.
Call your ELECTED officials - he cannot be allowed to set one foot inside the DOJ. Confirming completely unqualified people is NOT doing the job we elected them to do. Voice your outrage, people!
No one embodies Donald Trump’s personal weaponization of the Justice Department more than Ed Martin.
Moving is hell. Selling and buying a home is hell. I am back from hell, and hope to never go there again.
At midnight on Friday the Trump administration, in its push to modernize government with software, eliminated 18F—a federal unit dedicated to modernizing government with software. "It’s chaotic, and it feels like it’s chaotic on purpose," one former worker told me. tinyurl.com/2yaxbbn7
Who am I talking about? Why, the new head of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Robert Kennedy. THAT GUY. ⬆️
Heather Cox Richardson's blog:
No medical background, never run a hospital/health system, proposed that Covid-19 might be ‘ethnically targeted’ to spare Jews, Lyme disease was a military bioweapon, against routine childhood immunizations, compared the work of the CDC to ‘Nazi death camps'
And the world's richest person can't find a proper tailor? Look at that suit!
you don't say. already RAISING Rx drug costs. Next up: Higher food prices! hbr.org/2025/01/trum...
I had a more detailed version of this post, but the POST button was muted and I could not send. Restarted my phone, and retyped it, still could not send. It was only when I removed details of who Trump fired that I was able to post. Hmmmmm.
Can't seem to be able to post this morning, so I'm trying something different.
There is just ....so much. In 48 hours, Trump has dismantled the working parts of nearly every department, and released more than 1500 violent criminals onto our streets.
Tomorrow is the anniversary of my mother's death 22 years ago. So it is a sad day for more than one reason.
The media currently IS able to do that... They just won't.
I'm still learning about it. I don't think it does, but frankly I don't want it to pull from my contact list to do that.
Glad to see you here!
This was the last straw. Removing ALL safeguards to false and dangerous messaging on FB and Instagram has prompted me to remove my accounts. I'm hoping my dear friends will find me here, and I see that a few already have. It's time to find my voice and make it heard.
So... Blowhard is at it again. But he can't actually DO this so, just chill and watch his ass lie about whatever...when it doesn't come about. Poor Donny.
I agree, three hundred and sixty billion percent.
Sooo relate to this. Especially on a Friday.
I'm tired too. So, yes.
Hoping they still can. If public education is dissolved, our children won't learn anything about civics, money, history or science.
How did you stand it? 🤣🤣🤣
Somebody from the 70's, I'll wager
I'm thankful for this safe(r) space to follow those who are wiser than myself, to learn from and contribute to the betterment of our community.
