I can't wait until the United States cleanses itself of all the ugly traces of Donald Trump. Take his name off buildings. Remove all the tacky gold bric-a-brac from the White House walls. Bulldoze his vulgar ballroom. Restore MLK, Jr Day and Juneteenth at parks. #Fumigate
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

I’ve now had multiple sources tell me the UK NHS is removing the CDC from its list of reliable sources.

Welcome to irrelevance.

Governor,Trump was a civilian when he faked an assassination attempt that led to the death of two people. You need to order an investigation into this staged murder. There is no statute
of limitations and he is a murderer.

Also, I know HIPAA exists for good reason, but I wish that people like this who expressed anti vaxx sentiments would have to prove that they didn't vaxx their kids.

Y’all, I think we can really drive a wedge between local law enforcement and ICE. ICE is coming in and making communities LESS safe. Creating chaos and making the work of local law enforcement harder. We don’t have to be best friends, but it’s something.

This is UNACCEPTABLE. Slot has destroyed this team, and the back office is behaving abominably.

Saleh is GOLD. Mismanaging him is a firing offense for Slot. What a disgrace.

Powerful to rally today with several hundred teachers, families, and community members in support of West Contra County teachers!

Our community supports the strike and will be out in the streets every day until teachers get a fair contract.

I’d rather identify as an anarchist than a communist because if I’m going to build my identity around a vision of an equitable political system that’s near impossible to implement IRL it’s gonna be the one with less paperwork

I saw Lawrence of Arabia projected from a 70mm print to what was at the time supposedly the largest screen west of the Mississippi, as God and David Lean intended.

Watching it on a phone should be a capital offense.

Here’s a great idea, do it now before anyone is put in harms way. Before he gets to say well I have 30 days to kill as many brown people as I can.

Please check in on the people you care about. Cannot stress this enough, as our nation continues to descend into fascism, and particularly as mental health and other health and social services continue to be eliminated under Project 2025.

Please prioritize this.

Frank Sinatra almost got into a fist fight with Bing Crosby on the set of High Society to defend the dignity of Louis Armstrong, who was added to the production due to Sinatra’s advocacy. It’s not hard to find PSAs for tolerance that Sinatra filmed!

160 years ago, the 13th Amendment was ratified, ending slavery. But that amendment came with a sinister loophole: a Slavery Clause that allowed for slavery “as punishment for crime.”

We need to pass @repnikema.bsky.social’s and my Abolition Amendment to #EndTheException once and for all!
