I packed this poem w/rhythm & rhyme so Americans of all ages won’t forget the bloody attack launched on our Capitol four years ago on #January6. Please share w/young people who might not remember.

He built the bomb.
He lit the match.... (1/10)

Awful: Trump just admitted in a new interview that he knows "very little" about the Honduran ex-president he pardoned. This guy trafficked a gazillion times more drugs into the US than anyone Trump has executed. Wrecks his case for the boat bombings.

A friendly reminder that the ACA is the Heritage Foundation's blueprint for healthcare. It WAS the Republican plan first used by MA governor Romney before MAGA decided that everyone but billionaires were expendable.
More Americans approve of the Affordable Care Act than at any point since it took effect more than a decade ago, per a new Gallup survey.

GOP says they’ve got a better healthcare plan.
Where is it?
What are the details?
How is it better?
Put up or shut up.

Cages are not policy and cruelty is not leadership.

Important thread. @kenmartin.bsky.social, pls read & DO BETTER.
Another week has passed with the DNC refusing to actually hire a spokesperson, or investing a dime in message penetration infrastructure.

And then they get mad that the base doesn’t trust them.

Someone has a spine.

Why can’t other police chiefs and police officers do their fucking job; Protect & Serve the people and communities of their cities?!

Police Do not answer to the government or the WH, they answer to the people and enforce the law.

By helping ICE they are breaking the law.
Minneapolis stands up to ICE

Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job

Chief Brian O’Hara says he’ll fire city police officers if they don’t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

Terrifying but true analysis by @olgalautman.bsky.social: Trump has turned the U.S into a Russian vassal state. The new national security statement proves this even further.

Nothing says racism, cruelty, hatred and weakness combined in one quite like the orange felon removing all free access to National Parks on federal holidays that honor black people whilst giving free access on his own birthday. He should’ve been sent to jail forever.

What did minimum wage get you each decade? In 2025, it buys you nothing but exhaustion.

There’s not a single place in America where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford even a modest 2-bedroom. Not one. That’s the economy we’re living in. #TrumpAffordabilityCrisis

No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

📌Except not one of these journalists asked the most obvious question: “Do you demand these people ridiculously fawn over you like some tin-pot dictator, and shower you with praise, or do they actually lower themselves into your trash can, and just stink up the entire place on their own?”

World leaders have figured out the strategy to getting literally anything they want from America:

Flatter & bribe POTUS & he will do whatever you want. It’s really that simple. And it’s not even a secret. The whole world has figured this out & are lining up to buy 🇺🇸!

This will be remembered as the most pathetic moment in American history. What a needy fool.

Your daily reminder: Putin is a terrorist bombing children in their beds every night. And our president worships him & has surrendered U.S. global power to this monster in every way possible. We must get Trump, Vance & their entire clown car cabinet OUT OF POWER ASAP. 2026 is too long to wait.

Bradley may have had a stellar career. But he showed terrible judgment here. And it will be what he is remembered for.
"Bradley told lawmakers that the orders he received from Hegseth were to kill the individuals on the approved target list, which included everyone on the boat, then destroy the drugs and sink the boat, those sources said."

They were civilians.

Also, the BOP's 2024 budget was $9B. That sounds like a lot, but the entire federal discretionary budget was $1.8T, and the non-defense part was $960B.

So < 1% of non-defense discretionary, < 0.5% of all discretionary. There's room to avoid this. There's no crowding out here.

Something to note since the American state media works to push far right propaganda, the orange felon and his fascist republican death cult will obliterate everything we know and love just to shield him from the Epstein Files or any type of scrutiny. When will enough be enough?

Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.

One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.

When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?
It's over.

Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.
