Western Montana is GORGEOUS. Every shade of green & heated rest stops w hot water to wash hands! Thank you MDT!

What a shameful thing. I certainly didn’t agree w most of Massie’s positions, but he displayed integrity in the positions he took. He may have lost this race, but he did not lose his very soul to Trumpism, so he should be proud of that.

This pretends to be legal document but it has the same force as toilet paper. The next Democratic president must appoint an AG who is of the proper temperament to take this fake agreement, roll it into a little ball, toss it, and and laugh. All on video.

Six states with primaries today. Folks in Idaho, Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Oregon can help change the trajectory that 🍊💩 has put us on. Listen to the kids!!!

"At first, it was just an alien concept to me. I never considered biking to work," Thompson said. Thompson is a planner at Columbus' Department of Public Service on projects that can help pedestrians, bicyclists and commuters get around without using a car." 🫠🫠🫠

Gerontocracy is how I still occasionally see people talk about AOC being too "young" and "inexperienced" for a presidential run despite the fact that in 2028 she will be 39 and have spent a quarter of that life as a US congressional member sitting on 5 different oversight and finance committees.

I'm sorry, what? In writing my first monograph, I spent six weeks trying to track down a citation in TWO languages I didn't know. And good thing too, because the citation was wrong. That's scholarship. That's research. You know, the thing we're trained to do?!?

Cry me a river, Mike Johnson. Louisiana is 48th in income. Members of Congress make $174,000 a year & get free healthcare. They obtain insider information about corporations through their job. Trading on stocks w/ that information is illegal. That IS insider-trading.

"The Trump administration has struck what some see as the final blow to PEPFAR, the vaunted US program that has saved the lives of 26 million people living with HIV. The State Dept now says that as of 30 September, CDC support for PEPFAR will end in most countries." www.science.org/content/arti...

I ride my e-bike to the bike shop I manage. Lots of “cheating” remarks from customers. I don’t care. We fix their bikes because of my e-bike! I ran multiple errands yesterday across London promoting our charity. At 61 with dodgy joints it was awesome. Thankyou for your attention to this message.

That’s Colorado State University

Wow, design program ceremony @CSU delayed at last moment as grads & families literally walking to venue. Blamed on “weather” but it’s to be inside. Earlier ceremonies ran over. That’s unforgivably bad management. These are kept on time by good management.

I've got an entire other satchel of issues with the ever present campaign to exclude kids from public spaces. As the meme goes

The Dutch landscape hides an engineering marvel in plain sight: thousands of miles of smooth, signed, scenic cycling paths connecting every remote corner of the country. The payoff? A cycle tourism economy worth €2 billion each year. Proof that when you build for bikes, people (and places) prosper.

FLEECING OF THE AMERICAN TAXPAYERS

I feel I should alert Bluesky to the baby foxes in our yard

Celebrating Jewish American Heritage Month with one of the greatest American Jews of all time, Emma Goldman.

Quite impressed with this young leader.

HERE WE GO! BABY COOT FEET! 🪶 🐣

Big #Tobacco has called in all its chits for being among the biggest donors to the Trump campaign. The got rid of the whole CDC Office on Smoking & Health & now are pushing fruity vapes to the kids. Even some Trumpers can’t stomach working to advance addiction

Not that it's OK for ICE to treat anyone this way, but this woman is a green card holder. She's a legal immigrant who did everything legally and she's been kidnapped by ICE.

Also, Trump won by 49.8% to Harris's 48.3% in the 2024 popular vote, a narrow 1.48% margin. He lost by 4.5% in the 2020 election against Biden.

Rubio doesn’t come across as the biggest monster in this administration, but there’s a valid argument that he is. Demolishing USAID was a slow moving atrocity. He must never be freed of responsibility for it.

At this point, solving climate change is cheaper than not solving it -- not only on some grand 50 year time horizon, but tomorrow, today, immediately. Soving climate change *is* affordability. Maybe Dems should tell voters about that.

Last year, it only took five of us showing up and making public comment at a city council meeting to get the council to restore library funding that the mayor’s office had cut. Just a few people showing up can make a huge difference.

The effort by southern states to push undeniably racist, gerrymandered maps demands a response from Democrats-to protect Black voters, and to save democracy itself And-if the DNC funds candidates in state legislative races-Dems might be able to gain 22 seats Because all politics is, in fact, local

Probably has a tobacco company executive in mind for the position

As of TODAY, the group that has experienced the LARGEST percentage point increase in unemployment since last year is Black women. #jobsday #econsky

Somebody sent this to me

The reporter who asked this question is a veteran journalist, Rachel Scott. She is also a Black American. Trump called her question stupid and twice seemed to imply she was comfortable with dirt. Just naked misogyny and racism

There is not enough discussion of the EEOC's lawsuit against @nytimes.com for discriminating against a white man. Here's a gift link. Let's get into it.🧵 www.nytimes.com/2026/05/05/b...

‘Covid ‘only’ kills the sick the old and the vulnerable’ presented as a net positive is not restricted to RFK jr. And I’m sure I will be unpopular for pointing that out.

This is tragic

fucking awesome

I have a rare autoimmune disease that can leave me unable to walk or breathe for days or weeks at a time. I am still able to get out in my community and enjoy the outdoors because of a class 2 ebike with a throttle. These are freedom machines.

John Roberts claims the justices aren’t “political actors” Spare us the sanctimony. By destroying VRA in middle of election the court put its thumb on scale of midterms, turbocharging Trump’s gerrymandering war & imperiling majority-Black districts across South www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Serenity. Green heron reflecting on a desert pond. 🪶🌿

“rejecting war is one thing, but i draw the line at someone urging for peace”

This is exactly why language matters: “women were given the vote” frames equality as a gift from men, instead of hard won political power extracted through organized resistance. Nobody gave women anything. Women fought, marched, strategized, endured violence, went to prison and died for it.

Steyer has actual plans to address the climate and housing crises. Becerra has vague pander.

So uh, I think I'm going to vote for the billionaire in the CA gubernatorial primary?

becerra is just like fifteen special interests in a trench coat at this point lol

The *LAST* thing California, or the whole United States, needs is a Trump-endorsed, Faux-news host carpetbagger from the UK as governor of one of our most powerful states. Steve Hilton brought Brexit down on the UK, then fled. Now he wants to ruin CA too. Nope to Hilton.

This is a TERRIBLE, TRULY TERRIBLE IDEA!! @schiff.senate.gov
