Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

The Air Force will no longer teach its recruits about the Tuskegee Airmen, Black pioneer pilots honored for their service during World War II. Also halted, teaching the history of Women Airforce Service Pilots, or WASPs, the female World War II pilots who were essential in ferrying warplanes…

Indigenous people are aware of this; but many of us were never taught in school. The Indian Health Service (IHS) forced sterilization of thousands of Native American women in the 1960s and 1970s.

Folks: please be diligent about not disseminating Ann Telnaes' cartoon in a way that she's not getting the clicks on it (until she says differently). Her IP matters now more than ever.

Make it go viral but make sure she benefits.

This is highly disconcerting. WaPo editors killed an editorial cartoon that mocked Bezos and other tech oligarchs. Will the Post respond to this? Democracy dies with accommodation.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the terrorist in the New Orleans attack was an American citizen born in Texas, NOT an undocumented immigrant, and he was even a Veteran of the U.S. Army.

It's only the FIRST day of the New Year, and trump is already saying dumb shit.

In less than two years, Bird Flu has seemingly leaped across various mammalian species, causing death and havoc at a frequency never before seen.

This is grave, worrisome news requiring a serious, urgent response, akin to the leadership @gavinnewsom.bsky.social is demonstrating in CA.
Twenty big cats, including a half-Bengal tiger and four cougars, died at a sanctuary in Washington State after becoming infected with bird flu, according to the facility’s director. “We’ve never had anything like it.”

WHOA! THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FRAUD.

GOP Rep. Kay Granger (TX-12) has been missing for six months. She was just found by a reporter in a dementia care facility.

Her staff and others have been keeping this a secret from her constituents. So who’s been making these posts?

She's fighting back.
