. @mohelaofficial.bsky.social I’ve spent two hours trying to get someone on the phone — is there one phone option that doesn’t loop you into pre proceed messages? This is disgraceful

This is bullshit.

Not only do ICE bounty hunters refuse to identify themselves, they won’t say where they’re taking the people they’re kidnapping.

Deliberately shuffling detainees from facility to facility so families can’t find them & they miss their chance at legal counsel.

Am I the only one underwhelmed by Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid? I loved Seven Wives of Evelyn Hugo but this one struck me as corny and mostly boring. There were a few good scenes between the Joan and Vanessa, but I’m not connecting with the excitement I’m seeing for this book online.

Imagine this is you.

You’re locked in a cell thousands of miles from home. No one knows where you are. No charges. No trial. No end in sight.

Same…

Important to know that these cuts kick in right after the 2026 midterms. That’s how you know they know it’s bad.

More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act.

He was on the oilers ice 😂

If I said every hour of every day for the next year that Joni Ernst can go fuck herself, it wouldn’t be often enough.

School choice is a scam to funnel taxpayer money to private and religious schools…

WIth everything else you kind of forget that the president of the united states is a crypto scammer

This is Sydney. She is asking very politely for some back scratches. Not sure what else shaking your behind could possibly suggest. 13/10

Why can’t Republicans just mind their business?

They involve themselves in everyone’s lives. From classrooms to doctor’s offices to libraries to to bedrooms.

Small government my ass…

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

Reporter: There was a car bomb in Moscow this morning that killed a Russian general. Do you have any reaction to that?

Trump: Who killed what?

Reporter: A Russian general killed by a car bomb.

Trump: Well, you're just telling me that for the first time. Where did this take place?

Seriously, why is RFK Jr worried about dyes in food when his department is cutting safety standards for milk and chicken?

This thread!!

Ope.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

March 14, 2025 Today the Senate passed a stopgap measure from the House of Representatives to fund the government for six months through September 30.

I hope you’ll read Heather today…she explains why progressives are so angry at Schumer and the other nine Dems who voted with MAGA yesterday. I am angry because I’m out in rural spaces everyday. I need fighters, not co-signers. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Why elite institutions MUST speak out.

These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP.

Schumer
Fetterman
Cortez Masto
Durbin
King
Shaheen
Gillibrand
Schatz
Hassan
Peters

Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

These are bold and wild allegations from the FBI, which is moving to criminalize organizations like Habitat for Humanity for receiving grants from the EPA.

In a court filing, Citibank disclosed that it had been directed by the FBI to freeze the bank accounts of these groups.

So many of the Dem senators voting yes have turned off their phones

Is Chuck Schumer just angling to be guest on the new Gavin Newsom podcast or what the fuck is going on here

Arlington Cemetery website scrubs links about Black and female veterans Pentagon leaders have ordered that their websites and social media pages remove articles and images that “promote” DEI.

Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed information about prominent Black, Hispanic and female service members and topics such as the Civil War from its website, part of an effort across the Defense Department to remove all references to diversity, equity and inclusion from its online presence.

If we are going to be the opposition party, we better start acting like it.
