I am not now, nor have I ever been the extremist.
Once in awhile I can say Im "ahead of my time" or "forward thinking".
Choosing compassion and good will should never be considered "extreme".

A majority of federal judges who spoke with The New York Times recently – many of them appointed by Republican presidents – are sounding the alarm on the Supreme Court’s increased use of its emergency...

Speaker Johnson just declared the House will remain in recess all next week. This will mark a full month off; the chamber has not been in session since September 19.

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

Two reasons he calls us communists.
1. It's low hanging fruit for the uneducated base, who don't even know what communism is.
2. Projection. THEY are the communists - America is feeling more like the USSR every day. I'm no Reagan fan, but I doubt he'd support this shit.

Shutdown 5WHs

Who? It’s on Republicans

What? At stake: Your
Healthcare &
Federal workers'
jobs

When? Right Now

Where? Republicans are MIA

Why? Republicans seek no
solutions

Congressman Eugene Vindman @repvindman.bsky.social · 1d

I’ve gotten a lot of questions about this government shutdown.

Who? What? When? Where? Why?

Every answer points to the same thing — Republicans’ inability to do their jobs.

I’m still in D.C., working to pass a budget that puts hardworking Virginians first.

Like, I think our society has given way too much political power to guys whose worldview is reshaped by political invitations to dine with the King of England and have no idea about what is happening in American cities.

Mr. Benioff is close enough to Mr. Trump to have been invited last month to a state dinner that was hosted by King Charles for the president at Windsor Castle in England. Mr. Benioff said that he was incredibly honored to be seated directly across the table from Mr. Trump and spent the dinner telling him “how grateful I am for everything he’s doing,” he recounted.

Mr. Benioff, who also owns Time magazine, said he had not closely followed the news about the immigration raids, Mr. Trump’s call to gerrymander congressional districts before the midterm elections, the government shutdown or the Trump administration’s attacks on the media. He said Time, which named Mr. Trump its “Person of the Year” last year, had faced no pressure from the White House.

I strongly urge everyone to not just read this warning from @marcwatkins.bsky.social, but heed it, and be vocal and forceful pushing back against using AI to grade student writing. This must be anathema if we're going to have a world where learning means something. substack.com/inbox/post/1...
