‘The Work of Democracy is The Work of Our Time’

A tweet from Charlie Spierling showing Trump hobnobbing in his beach club before starting a war of choice.

Reminder that Trump stopped into a $1M a plate fundraiser before starting a war that got American service members killed.

This Sunday reminder is for every gardener out there 🌱

You don't need a big yard.
You don't need experience.
You don't need a big budget.

You just need to START. 🌿

One seed. One pot. One sunny spot.

That's all it takes. ☀️

Jane Fonda has been warning us for decades, and she’s still in the streets doing it. In Los Angeles, she reminded us that movements, not presidents, end wars. From Vietnam, Iraq, & Afghanistan to this new war in the Middle East. “Trump may wage this war in our names, but not with our consent.”

Nobody has ever gotten the better of Ilhan on Twitter.

The Internet is not a great place to Do Nuance but this is one of those places where nuance is really called for.

A lot of enlisted folks enlisted out of economic need, did not sign up yesterday, & really cannot just walk off the job without severe consequences.

AND enlistment is not heroism, AND

Interesting. Looks like Amodei’s image repair work is going to be effective. Anthropic is aiming for using its reputation to be the preferred bailout when Nvidia’s GPU Ponzi scheme crashes, vs OpenAI relying on unquestioning service to the state to gain a bailout. Wonder which one will work…

“.. a fresh stagflationary wind blowing through the global economy ..”

You know, we could start with regime change at home.

Donny can’t be bothered by that ‘what comes next’ shit. he’s going to wipe his hands & throw the Iranian people to the wolves, because psychopaths gonna psychopath.
let’s revisit some words Timothy Snyder posted last June, when Donny claimed to have ‘completely obliterated’ Iran’s nuclear program.

He deposed a dynasty that had been there since the 18th century. There is no "historic line of succession" here this is nonsense

Your periodic reminder that the so called "Pahlavi dynasty of Iranian emperors" started in 1925 with the granddad of the current exile

I hate how accurate this tweet is.

A 6-month pregnant woman was detained by ICE and subjected to handcuffing and shackling. She was then held in a cell for three days without a bed or adequate food before being rushed to a Boston hospital due to severe abdominal pain.

He beat Bush’s domestic death toll with COVID, now our boy Trump is pushing for the dead American soldiers benchmark.

DHS wants to incarcerate 1500 human beings in a WAREHOUSE in a town where the population is about 2000 people. It's gross.

Civil rights stories removed from Border Patrol’s website during Black History Month Historical accounts of women, Black men, and the agency’s deployment against segregationists in the sixties have disappeared from the official Customs and Border Protection (CBP) website.

NEW: As Black History Month comes to a close, CBP appears to have scrubbed stories about Black people and marginalized groups' contributions to the history of the agency from an official page.

Archived versions show the changes happened the first week of February:

I voted for Gore, Kerry, Obama, Clinton, Biden, and Harris. My conscience is clear and so is my karma card.

Just a weird aside: Gillette's owner was a huge supporter of far right groups and publications in the 1960s. Somewhere in my files I have graph of all the far right orgs, like the JBS, he put money into.
