Cowards, every single one of them

If you’re at home today, not spending money, and feeling bored, you might be wondering, “What could I do?” Well, task one: you can make random reports on this website: enddei.ed.gov

When we shop small, we can create a wealth of change, particularly in our local community. We can help ensure our public school systems are funded, that there are enough bus lines to help folks commute across the city, & that our hospitals are stocked with resources to ensure we are healthy & safe.

Medicaid is not for sale.
NASA is not for sale.
The Post Office is not for sale.
America is not for sale.

We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

I try not to be alarmist, but as a Jewish academic with a lot of inherited familial trauma, it does not make me feel great that an avowed supporter of the German far-right now has access to my Social Security number.

Thank you ACLU, NYT, and AOC! ✊

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

A few things Trump just made more expensive for you:

Gas
Cars
TVs
iPhones
Xboxes
Avocados
Strawberries
Furniture
Power tools
Modelo
Refrigerators
Microwaves
Clothes
Bananas
Tequila
Maple syrup

A 100% tax on Tesla. Yes.

WELCOME TO BLACK HISTORY MONTH

sorry if I'm being a little annoying about violations to the constitution, but damn it feels weird to be on the side making a fuss about that

incredible to have a president who appears to be speed-running getting impeached, and even more incredible to to have two other branches of government who are just sitting there watching it as if it is actually a livestream which they are unable to impact in any way

No compliance ✊

Finally got my handsome Astro added to my sleeve. Couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.

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.

I've assembled a team of the most horrible perverts and criminals you've ever seen and we're going to fix this country
