Anyway, here is a photo from MLK Jr's speech and he didn't have to pay anyone to show up.

My succinct Strait of Hormuz synopsis:

Look at the women at NASA. They are the ones pushing the boundaries of science, solving problems most people can’t even understand, and carrying this country forward, while our politicians right now posture and stumble through talking points. And they are doing it all with joy.👇

Wishing this fabulously competent—and joyful—crew a safe return to a planet that, frankly, doesn't deserve them.

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”

Absolutely right! That is what Republicans do — take credit for other people’s work.

Is Laura Loomer the shadow Secretary of State? Nate Swanson’s credentials are clear: 20 years in government with actual Iran expertise. It didn’t matter. The far-right, nut-job influencer was able to push him out when it came to advising Trump on what to expect when waging war with Iran.

Whitehouse: "Americans are made less safe every time this committee holds hearings promoting fake outrage about Jack Smith, every time MAGA influencers like Loomer convince Trump to fire agency heads & every time Patel fires FBI experts bc he wants to distract from his own waste of taxpayer dollars"

Florida just handed Ron DeSantis a weapon to fire elected officials for supporting their own constituents.

I have nothing to add here. Yes, it’s that bad.

Don’t. Tell. Me. What. To. Say.

Chris Murphy: "We're gonna have Americans dying, and the end result is going to be hard line leadership continues in Iran and we don't get rid of their nuclear program. That's a moral and strategic disaster for the country."

Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.

Hi Brenda, here's a little something I wrote to share with everyone: 🎶 suno.com/s/lYMRyV9Mb8... 🎶 I hope you enjoy it.

Time for school

You’ll notice the American state media spent more time attacking President Biden’s age and mental ability than they have on Epstein Files, the MAGA regime illegally seizing voter data in Georgia, the White House being bulldozed or the orange felon’s crimes. They failed humanity.

For those unaware, a quick primer on perhaps the most dangerous of the oligarchs. Peter Thiel.

That was hands down the best halftime show ever. It was filled with so many references to Puerto Rican culture and history. The sugarcane fields, the casita, the streets of NYC, and the power lines. All of it resonated so much. Boricua por siempre. Seguimos aquí. 🇵🇷

TRUMP TODAY: There was an election in Texas? What? TRUMP YESTERDAY:

🚨TONIGHT’S PROTEST IN MINNEAPOLIS IS INSANE: CNN is STUNNED. Share this widely! “I've covered many protests… I've not seen a crowd like this before.” It’s 8 degrees. “It is freezing, but nothing, nothing is stopping these people.” This isn’t a rally. It’s a movement. @calltoactivism.bsky.social

Getting the impression that ICE is gearing up for a pogrom in Springfield, Ohio, which was ground zero of Vance’s lies about Haitians during the campaign. Haitians lose temporary protected status on February 3rd. Reporters, lawyers, neighbors — please get ready.

Obama always has the best resources to help people and communities. 👇

This is who our government is calling a monster and a domestic terrorist. They have no shame. Rest in peace, Alex Pretti.

🚨 NEW — Statement from the family of Alex Pretti: "We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital... 1/

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

NEW Statement from the family of Alex Pretti:

One year after she urged Trump to have mercy, Bishop Budde leads clergy protests in Minneapolis religionnews.com/2026/01/23/o...

If ICE truly were targeting "the worst of the worst" and not, you know, deliberately brutalizing innocent families with children, they'd rush to correct all the stories like this one, apologizing and insisting it's not what they're really doing. They don't because this is deliberate. This is it.

🇬🇧 WATCH: “How dare he say this? A man who dodged the draft. Absolute disgrace.” UK soldiers who served alongside us and mothers of the fallen react to Trump disparaging their sacrifice to denigrate NATO. (H/T @lbc.co.uk @mrjamesob.bsky.social ) Putin is pleased.

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett calls out the hypocrisy of Byron Donalds and his background. Donalds will forever ride the coattails of the Trump regime and receive nothing in return.

Ask yourself: If Donald Trump was intentionally trying to destroy the United States, how could you tell the difference?

Dr. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has written many powerful works, but this one stopped me dead in my tracks when I first read it. Please take the time, and share widely.

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

To each of you from all of us… Happy New Year! We welcome 2026 with great hope for a better future for every human being. #2026 #TheHumanityProject #HumanityProject #selfworth #humanity respect

There’s an urgent need for blood in the aftermath of the Brown University shooting If you can give, please do If you can’t, please spread the word Its terrifying to think how bad this shooting might be if they need an urgent call for blood, but the more people donating the more lives we can save

Can I get anymore followers for @yodamonkey2.bsky.social ? If you follow please comment so I can list you later to make more friends. Thanks Repost

Now here’s the kind of news you drop going into a long holiday weekend. Maybe no one will notice. 🤡 @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

If that video makes Miller mad you know you have to watch it. Senators along with Congresspersons made that video to inform servicemen that they do not have to follow the orders if they go against the constitution.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

I need y'all to help me today. Zach Wahls is running for the U.S. Senate to replace Joni Ernst. He has a good size following on other social media platforms but hasn't gotten much traction here yet. We can change that today! Give @zachwahls.bsky.social a follow and repost this, please. Ty! 💙🌊
