Gabrielle Hecht 🇵🇷 got a few spoons back from Zohran's triumph @gabriellehecht.bsky.social · 17d

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

I'm sure many of you have heard by now that earlier this week, IU k*lled the print edition of its student paper, the IDS. The issue that was supposed to print this week contained criticism of the Whitten regime and IUs further slide into scist control, and they couldn't allow that to happen during Homecoming, when all the rich alumni are in town.
Enter Purdue! The Purdue student paper, The Exponent, owns its own presses. Yesterday, in an act of tremendous solidarity with their biggest rival school, they printed the forbidden issue of the IDS. They then drove it to Bloomington overnight and stocked all of the IDS boxes on campus, just in time for Homecoming.
Solidarity is what makes us stronger, and solidarity will be what ultimately allows us to triumph, if we can ever truly get it together. I hope everyone has a fun, safe day if they're going out today, and I hope we can think about what acts of solidarity we can begin taking to really make this movement MOVE - beyond a permitted expression of upset into more active resistance.

Whoever came up with the idea of mocking this gratuitously cruel regime with cute, nonthreatening plastic frogs really hit a gold mine. The clever imagery has made it all the way across the Atlantic.

Thank you to the organizers of today's wildly successful (and peaceful) "No Kings" rallies. You did an amazing job. And thanks to all the millions of people who showed up to give us faith. And a special shout out to the White House regime and the Speaker of the House for all the free publicity!

@maxwellfrost.bsky.social I bet lots of folks in Daniel Webster’s district would love for you to hold a town hall and invite us. He certainly isn’t going to hold one, and our voices need to be heard!

We need Democrats to hold open town meetings so that our voices can be heard.

Janis with an "s" like Joplin @jancb16.bsky.social · Feb 27

Yes! I just asked Congressman Maxwell Frost to hold one here in Central Florida even though I am not in his district. My MAGA congressman certainly won’t hold one.

Attention working-class Americans:

Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security.

Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

I have an idea—how about we really address inefficiency in the federal government the way Clinton/Gore did? Thoughtfully, logically, humanely and at a more reasonable pace? They cut nearly 400,000 federal jobs.

This is hilarious. I especially like the annexation of Green Bay and the mystery Mississippi River announcement.
