I think it's bad that the country is led by people who haven't had a real problem in their entire lives and couldn't get a regular job due to being too weird

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

We just wanted to take a moment to thank all our new supporters! Tomorrow, there will be more of us!

Oh yeah, right. That. Insane.

Paul Krugman “It has always been a mistake to trust anyone promising to run the government like a business. Businesses and government agencies have very different objectives, and even genuinely great business leaders”

Folks are asking, “what should I do in this moment?” One of the most passionate, progressive voices in Congress for 30 years, Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden answers that question. Here’s our conversation, inside a replica of the Senate chamber at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute: youtu.be/n_nQ-Moa9fI?...

Wasted!

Good insights, Jamie.

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

Listen up!

Here's a list of DOGE staff, assembled and annotated by my colleagues at BI. Whatever you do, please don't share it. www.businessinsider.com/doge-staff-l...

FB doesn't let me share this. Pretty song though! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rgb8...

Representative Mark Pocan, @pocan.house.gov, just introduced legislation to ban "special" government employees from federal contracts. It's titled the Eliminate Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy Act. ELON MUSK Act for short.

How much info do we assume he has? And, does this strategy make any sense? Under what cases?

this is a great start. and the energy of being a part of this helps offset that sense of doom and isolation. but just standing around outside and yelling putters out after a while. at any case, glad it's started.

This is what democracy looks like.

This is what I think of as a specific kind of ignorance that heavily affects young white guys who work in tech. It says “i don’t know about this, so I assume no one else does either.” It’s new to them, so it must be new to everybody!

Aha!

I think this explains a lot.

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you

Happy Sunday from the Oracle of Ancient Cuteness.

They don't seem to be stopping any of this. Aside from AOC and a very few others, where are the street smarts?

Washington State.... Masked man (funny how that works) d scribing offers made to militia groups by ICE to deputize them. He seems to be coming to the city saying if you pay us more than ICE, we will avoid rounding up people. Truly chilling, I thought.

The most revolutionary act right now might be backing up data.

I like this approach!

I know we all know this by now. But my jaw is still agape that MF is not hogtied. He is surely not within his job description, and does he even have security clearance to work in proximity to these computers?

Oh look. A President, a Governor, a Mayor - all at the crash site at the Chesapeake Bay with first responders. Not swimming. Showing empathy and leadership.

Given all these critical webpages are being taken down, this might be a good time to familiarize yourself with the Wayback Machine on Internet Archive. It can pull up pages that are no longer active: web.archive.org

This lady shows mastery of understatement.

Sorry to bombard your post, but in my 74 years, I've never seen a night like tonight since Nixon's Friday Night Massacre. I'm posting this on all larger accounts who follow me and have a voice that I don't.

So yeah, it isn't what it says or as described. And not worth the paper it's not printed on. big fan of @juddlegum.bsky.social journalism/analysis. popular.info/p/despite-me...

This seems a point in time for just such. As we know, data that is not backed up can be lost forever!

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

Good reminder.
