Great piece by Kristin Connelly on how the SAVE Act undermines our elections by making it harder to vote. Check it out here: www.eastbaytimes.com/2025/04/05/o...

Welcome !

The worst catastrophes of history are caused by men who are malevolent, ignorant, and have exceptional wills.

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say

New Yorkers: Call Sen. Gillibrand’s office to vote NO on cloture and NO on the Republican Spending Bill. They vote in the morning. ☎️: (202) 224-4451

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

@jacqueaye.bsky.social Aaaaaaaaaaah I looooooove everything!!! I'm so excited to read!

Last night I stood up for those who need Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Democrats will never abandon the fight to make sure every American has a safe, healthy, and financially secure life. #ISaidWhatISaid

Yessss

Every single system in this country is corrupted and compromised. So if they’re planning on tearing it all down, okay- just know it will not be a Christian fascist republic. Put that on my reanimated corpse. And it also won’t be the Soviet Union of Crakkas either.

I have warned about the rightwing attack on empathy. It is as dangerous as any attack on democracy. It is an attack on our humanity. Once you turn off empathy you can do anything. It will accelerate in Musks’ hands. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

This list is so long and taking up so much real estate in his speech it’s almost like they want to distract from their massive cuts to Medicaid

Every time someone sees Cuomo for mayor the next thought should be Cuomo sexual harassment and Cuomo misuse of funds.

Public Health – Seattle & King County has identified a new case of #measles in an infant in King County. People who were at certain locations in King County may have been exposed. People who are vaccinated are very well protected. See their blog for a list of exposure locations: bit.ly/4bsa1PR

Opt out tomorrow!

All it takes is for 11.5 million to do this every day. That's the size of a large Youtuber's sub list. It's 3.5% of our population. Be the change you want to see. If you have no other choices than to patron the places (location, etc), figure out other ways to resist. You got this 💪

You want to read this by @jamieriley.bsky.social. A grave, but informative summary. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

“I’ll see you and raise you one.”

Anyone in Alabama State Gov or with a large employer in the state ? You are getting RIPPED off by PBMs. www.linkedin.com/posts/gregre...

This is indeed brilliant

“Get rid of Musk!” It’s growing.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Well now.

This UNBELIEVABLE 15-year-old with college and masters degrees is in medical school working on a doctorate,,, but federal funding has cut off her research and scholarships. We NEED more doctors,,, especially little black and brown girls to grow up believing they can be anything. gofund.me/1549247a

A point to consider.

SKEET THREAD: What happened yesterday holds a powerful lesson. We must give it greater attention. LAWYERS HAVE A CHOICE. To obey the rules of our profession or to degrade our oath by putting politics above our ethical obligations. In early 2021 I wrote this piece. www.nytimes.com/2021/02/12/o...

So you can just say you work at DOGE and pillage anything from our documents you want. The law truly doesn't exist anymore! Cool!

Heads up. Great resource today from @legaldefensefund.bsky.social.

I really do feel like I’m losing my mind.

Now, because POTUS Musk and FLOTUS Trump made it illegal for women to vote if their birth name is not the same as their current married name, we need immediate help to either change women’s names on birth certificates or change married name back to birth name. Make it happen, please.

If you happen to see dead wild birds, please do not touch them - especially if they are 🟢🦉 Instead, report them to the WA Dept of Fish and Wildlife at 🔗 survey123.arcgis.com/share/a384e9...

We're expediting sex designation change requests on birth certificates. People born in WA who want to change the sex designation on their birth certificate can do so by filing a request with us. . doh.wa.gov/DesignationC...

Wow. Thank you Governor!

Polycute?

Pope Francis’ letter to U.S. Bishops is incedibly powerful. This stands out to me especially. Every purported Christian faith leader who has endorsed or stood silent before Trump’s ugly immigration policies needs to be confronted with this statement. www.vatican.va/content/fran...

They let you give feedback, too.

Mr Rogers and Sesame Street taught me love, kindness, compassion, and empathy. Star Trek taught me to dream of and aspire to help create a better and more diverse world. Star Wars and Tolkien taught me to fight for freedom, even in the face of overwhelming odds and great evil.

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

VA bill HB 2093 is now in the VA Senate. If passed it will give VA-born adopted people the right to access their original birth certificates as adults. VA residents, VA-born adopted ppl and their families can write in support of this bill! More info and email templates in the skeets below
