The U.S. Department of Agriculture is working to reverse the “accidental” firing of several employees responding to an avian influenza outbreak. While the CDC says the public risk is low, the crisis is hitting the agriculture sector hard, driving egg prices to record highs.

I fully support #Palestine staying in the #GazaStrip. Palestinians need a state of their own. This is the only pathway to peace. #Trump sees them instead as pawns in the game of luxury #realestate, calling the Levant “the Riviera of the #MiddleEast,” per @bloomberg.com

Disgusting. 🤢

#Gaza
'Ridiculous, absurd'

PROGRESSIVES AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS IN 2024: "Don't vote for her!!!! She isn't good for Palestine!!!!"

DONALD TRUMP IN 2025: "We should ethnic cleanse the Palestinians from Gaza so I can build some Mediterranean-view condos."

CHIRLA condemns the use of Guantanamo Bay detention camps in Cuba to incarcerate immigrants who consider the U.S. their home. It is grotesque, inhumane, & costly to imprison immigrants at Guantanamo, where they face indefinite detention & a lack of due process.

Thank you, Stephen King, for sharing such an image. 💯
I had the sweetest dream last night. I was driving on the LIE and there was Donald Trump in a red jumpsuit, picking up trash beside the highway.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Per @bloomberg.com:

The Trump admin will be applying tariffs to pharmaceuticals. It appears that move is coming into effect as of today, Feb. 1.

Let that one sink in. 🫣

Medication cost SHOULD always stay as low as possible.

We need a moral revival.

#Trump, of course, is going after #JeromePowell at the Fed, regarding interest rates (it was coming.)

@bloomberg.com just reported that Trump’s response to J. Powell & his stance on rates is simply this:

“I know better than him.”

To most people, I believe, this isn’t a sufficient response.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

I saw a post saying that ICE is pausing its tip line, so I decided to call myself to verify.

The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips.

Good job, friends.

The Trump Administration’s action to suspend all federal grants & loans will have a devastating impact on the health and well-being of millions of children, seniors on fixed incomes, and the most vulnerable people in our country.

It is a dangerous move towards authoritarianism.

Boom. ⬇️ #Greenland #Trump
Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.
 
In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour. 

Let's steal those ideas.

“‘We have a mandate not to leave our brothers & sisters out there…’

[Smith-Pollard] said almost every faith leader she knows is involved in some way…collecting aid, others are helping church or community members find housing…others are using their social media to highlight fundraising requests.”

Yes! This is how we do it. ⬇️

There is a new democratic movement bubbling up underneath the surface. It is developing organically and being arrived at both individually and through networks.

It is there, it just needs to keep getting tapped into and released. And people who see it need to coordinate and connect.

May God bless and keep Bishop Mariann Budde. A faithful #Christian, she prophetically warned the world today that the #MAGA movement is incompatible with #Jesus' teachings. She refused to bend the knee and kiss the ring. She did what Christians should. religionnews.com/2025/01/21/i...
