The structure of world peace depends on all of us. Women make up half of the population of the US as well as this shared world. Happy #WomensHistoryMonth especially to those who stand steadfast to help ensure #Equality #Equity #Justice for girls and women in every society. #WHM #GlobalCitizen

The whole of the GOP along with their supporters are completely disgusting.
Kinzinger: Zelenskyy had an opportunity to flee Ukraine when Russia attacked and he stayed. Is there anybody that has any doubt about whether Trump would flee the country if we were attacked.

Most poignant line from #ZeroDay followed with the obvious, 'and you know what was left when they were finished? Graveyards and ruins, every single time.'

To quote my partner @danniemolguin.bsky.social just now, @kairyssdal.bsky.social, Trump is giving us to Putin.
Judge Advocates General.

He’s fired the top military lawyers in each service.
Firing all the JAGs is very very bad

@hcrichardson.bsky.social did you see your brave governor?
BREAKING: In a stunning moment of defiance, Maine's Governor Janet Mills stands up to Trump, saying she is complying with state and federal (anti-discrimination) law, and will see him in court over his threat to withhold federal funds.

This is incredible.

President Donald Trump abruptly fired Air Force Gen. CQ Brown as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Friday, sidelining a history-making fighter pilot and respected officer as part of a campaign to rid the military of leaders who support diversity and equity in the ranks.

Dear Media Folks: Please stop saying that the Fed did this or the Government did that.

Instead say: Trump said that, supported that, did that.

The only people (or monsters if you will) that support the ludicrous actions of his coup are his tapped cronies & moronic supporters - every, single one.

Mass firings of FAA workers - at a time when they already have serious staffing problems - would be dangerous at any time. Musk and Trump doing this weeks after the deadliest crash in years is stupid beyond belief.

About a quarter of all trade value between the U.S. and Canada happens over one bridge between Windsor, Ontario, and Detroit.

But the threat of a trade war between the two countries has rattled some business and political leaders.

Detroit and Windsor, Ontario, have always been close. But President Trump's tariffs would put them on the front lines of a trade war.

Vance, Musk, and Hegseth go full Nazi in Europe, attacking the Western world order. But in a perverse inversion, the #BrokenTimes makes the focus the "German consensus" rather than the Americans' own fascism. 4/
