America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

Anyone paying even the slightest bit of attention could see that was happening.

Not only does this intentionally violate the First Amendment to the US Constitution, it’s vile to watch mean-spirited, selfish ghouls who starve the poor and kidnap people for their skin color sanctimoniously pretending they follow any of the teachings of Jesus.

I usually post only once a day. If I ever post this many in one day, please contact my loved ones so they can stage an intervention. #ThankYouForYourAttentionToThisMatter 🙏

Filming them committing terrorism is now itself an act of terrorism?

I wrote this a year ago and it hit a nerve. It is still relevant today: Each time I have sat down to write something I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I cannot get out of my head. So, this week I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

Little to no additional snow accumulation is expected after some New York City areas were hit with the heaviest snowfall in years, forecasters said.

Lovely out this morning & perfect running weather 👌 4.5 miles walked around a busy country park 🌳 followed by my Christmas daily 1 mile run 🏃‍♀️ #running

Handsome cat is also traumatized cat. So I put my hand in front of his view and slowly go to pet him. He gets spooked easily. But this is a friendly hand. He has nice fur.

You ever cook something so good that you want to relive tasting it for the first time?!

I won’t sugarcoat it: this was an exhausting, cruel, terrible year. On this week’s Coffee Klatch, Heather and I try to make sense of what the country endured in 2025 — and what lessons we can take into 2026.

Our government’s priorities are entirely backward. And purposefully so.

One of my favorite presents ever—my dad found and framed this pic of my mother @sunminkimes.bsky.social at a Seattle courthouse after she passed her US citizenship test in 1981. Like so many of the people who come here to start a new life, she is the best of us—the bravest, strongest person I know.

And final for the night for Fire, a redesign doodle of Chital, a western dragon and relative to Fyfergrund's char Jamba!! It was so fun revisiting such an old design concept, and we LOVE the big floofs <3 #btacd #btacdragons #dragon #fantasy #art #rpg #pbprpg #arpg

Great points in this thread: We don't usually think of 1965 immigration act as on par w/New Deal and Civil Rights, but it was a major liberal achievement and Miller's real project is to undo it. As @larryglickman.bsky.social says this connects w/goal of undoing other great 20th century achievements:

Preemptive delegitimization: when damaging information threatens someone’s reputation, power, or legal exposure, a common response is not to rebut the facts, but to attack the legitimacy of the information itself, such as by calling it a hoax. #getsmart #holdfast

It’s George Conway. I’ve spent years calling out Donald Trump, the Republican Party, and their enablers! And if there’s one man who embodies political cowardice more than anyone else, it’s Lindsey Graham.

One of the joys of this time of year is the later mornings, sitting at my desk or driving to work and watching the sunrise. Seeing light reclaim what was lost in the night. The healing, restorative power of the new day (and coffee!) #poetry #poemoftheday

It’s hard to believe that one man can cause so much stress, so much fear, so much pain and suffering…a man who took an oath to preserve and protect our Constitution. This man, who is inciting terror across our land, must be removed from office. In a sane world, it would happen immediately.

A federal judge this week canceled the trial of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran man who was mistakenly deported, and scheduled a hearing on whether the prosecution is being vindictive in pursuing a human smuggling case against him. apnews.com/article/kilm...

I got an e-reader for Christmas and I'm kind of obsessed. Its like staring at my phone, which is my favorite hobby. Instead of doomscrolling, though, I'm reading a book!!!

Thank you for speaking out, Bruna.

This thread and the responses are a treasure.

My family and I, and the entire Japanese American community on the West Coast, were denied due process during our internment in WWII. It is a cherished, critical right for all people within the U.S.’s borders.

New York City’s John F. Kennedy International Airport is the hardest hit, with more than 300 flights scheduled for Friday already cancelled.

This portion of this thread may be useful information for a number of folks who follow me.

Made another trip up to Loess Bluffs National Wildlife Refuge in Northwest Missouri on Dec 22nd and wanted to share a few from that trip. Hope every had a great Christmas! 🪶 #Birds #Eagles #BirdsofPrey #BlueSkyPhotography #BlueSkyPhotographers 📷 #NatureLovers #Wildlife

Our increasingly demented POTUS in his 2nd term has bombed Nigeria, Yemen, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela, Columbia, the Caribbean, Iran, the Eastern Pacific, Iraq ... that we know of. Is anyone in our Congress even asking him what he is doing & why?

Everyone! Rory has taken her medicine like a perfect angel 3 days in a row.

Remember the horrible story in the Epstein files about the limo driver who met a survivor of Trump and Epstein who was afraid for her life if she reported it and was then found shot to death? The Oklahoman may have uncovered evidence of her death this week. www.rawstory.com/jeffrey-epst...
