Picture of a “racist care bear”

Smiling Mychal with hands raised wears an outer space shirt in a library. It is a still from an episode of Reading Rainbow.

LeVar Burton smiles with hands behind his head as he lies down on a colorful pile of books. ENEMY PIE book rests on his chest.

There have been two hosts in the history of Reading Rainbow. The Legend of Literacy, LeVar Burton! And... me, Mychal Threets, a librarian 🥹🤯

I am a reader, a librarian because LeVar Burton and Reading Rainbow made us believe and see we belong in books, we belong everywhere ✨

YouTube video by Rep. Jeffries Stop the Republican Shutdown

There is an ongoing Democratic live stream about the impact of people losing healthcare or being harmed by Republicans shutting things down over on Leader Jeffries’s YouTube page & as I type this it doesn’t even have 200 live viewers.

“Even more troubling was Mr. Hegseth’s ultimatum to America’s senior officers: conform to his political worldview or step aside. That demand is profoundly dangerous. It signals that partisan loyalty matters more than capability, judgment, or service to the Constitution.”

Hold the fuck up...

When it was Biden/Harris, the Free Palestine Movement folks were storming everything, even college campuses, and demanding to be fed.

But this is all y'all brought to the Bibi visit at the White House?!!

Yes, it was never about Palestine or Gaza.

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.

North Carolina, Michigan, and countless others, when is enough, enough?

When will we all demand better from each other, from our government?

We must stop the hatred of each other, but we must also demand each of our elected officials do more.

Nailed it !!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾!!!

Also, “buffoon” is a racist thing to call a Black man—especially when the Black man is very notably NOT a buffoon.

Rep. Jeffries is one of the most measured and deliberate politicians in Congress. He is the opposite of a buffoon.

Cancel the Cuts. Lower the Cost. Save Healthcare.

I can’t download some of my favorite videos of Howard students *FREAKING OUT IN JOY* when they discover Kamala on campus but @2rawtooreal.bsky.social features a great one here.

Thank goodness I have all these beautiful vids to watch about the present after finishing reading 107 Days. 🥰🥹💛🐝🪷🐝💛🥹🥰

That's what they fail/refuse to understand - voting for a human being like Trump says about you that, so long as *you* are ok, everyone else who *isn't* like you can go right ahead and get fucked. Trump represents the opposite of all he mentioned - cruelty, ignorance, bigotry. It's not "just a vote"

Democrats are fighting for a budget bill that meets the needs of the American people.

Cancel the Cuts. Lower the Cost. Save Healthcare.

We will not simply go along to get along.

Interesting. That is exactly how I judge people and doing things like voting for Trump tells me you aren’t a good person.

People signing the Global Pledge for Healthy Indoor Air at the UN

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right.

Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

Absolutely this.

I just stumbled on the original source for this content here so while the guy credits her, it’s important for it to be heard from the one who wrote it.

Opinion | This Is About So Much More Than Lisa Cook

to me, the “column” is less a form than an opportunity (and a challenge). you’re telling me i have as much space as i’d like to make an argument about anything i’d like to an audience inclined to pay close attention? well let’s see if they’ll read 2000 words on democratic legitimacy. (gift link)

Karma right now.

A bit ironic that former FBI Director James Comey will be the first government official indicted by Trump's Kangaroo Court nine years after he helped Trump win the 2016 election.

You see, if you cancel the hunger survey, people will never know how much you drove up food insecurity by slashing SNAP.

After Meeting With Alex Jones, Top DOJ Official Threatens Sandy Hook First Responder With Criminal Probe Read more here.

NEW: Ed Martin, the head of the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) vague weaponization task force, in a recent letter threatened to open a criminal investigation into a now-retired FBI special agent who sued the far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones over Jones’ lies about a mass school shooting.

Like 75% of the country wouldn’t have been able to make it that far down the page because THEY CAN’T READ and the government knows that.

The privilege of his statement is ridiculous. The vast majority of people who receive SS and SSDI couldn’t afford to go a month without their check. That doesn’t them fraudsters.

I smell smoke.
