When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Every single House Republican who voted for the largest Medicaid cut in American history is unfit to govern.

Just in NIH grants, It looks like beautiful Iowa City, home of the U of Iowa, will lose $71m in funding. That's almost $1k per resident. And that's before all the other cuts to SSA, FDA, etc.

Anyone in Iowa City that can offer more insight?

Adam Kinzinger’s security clearance is revoked every weekend. Deeply bizarre stuff.

A closer look at the hell-hole Trump is sending immigrants to.

CECOTβ€”El Salvador’s infamous mega-prison built for mass incarceration. The U.S. is snatching immigrants and sending them thereβ€”no trial, no proof, just suspected gang ties.

Something needs to be done about this human rights violation!

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

 A tweet from "Republicans against Trump" quotes GOP Rep. Don Bacon criticizing the handling of classified information on an unclassified device. Below, a CNN screenshot shows a reporter in a dark suit interviewing Rep. Don Bacon, who is wearing a suit with a blue tie, in a hallway. The CNN chyron reads, "TODAY: TRUMP INTEL OFFICIALS APPEAR BEFORE SENATE COMMITTEE" with a subheading identifying Rep. Bacon as a Republican from Nebraska. The setting is indoors with beige walls and overhead lighting.

We need more Republicans to speak out.

Now that I am finished screaming into the void about schooling for kids with disabilities being assigned to RFK: understand what this means.

He’s lumping accommodations into HHS, meaning those needs are now considered medicalized. Different from everyday education.

This is eugenics.

Trump’s commerce secretary Howard Lutnick says if Social Security skipped a check, his mother-in-law wouldn’t complainβ€”and if you would, it indicates you are probably a fraudster. Insane.

This is more important than you realize. Bluesky doesn’t downgrade links. Which means news sites will get more traffic from here than other sites.

Which gives them economic reasons to post here first.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense.

I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense

I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...
