Get a whistle. Keep it on you at all times. If you see 🧊 do 3 short bursts in sequence. If you see an abduction in progress, 3 long bursts.

I hope you all are starting to arm yourself with CPB’s greatest fear: Whistles Someone sees CPB, the blow their whistle, vulnerable people know to hide. I hope that takes off around Charlotte like it did around Chicago.

Do you live in the Charlotte area? Know someone who does? One of the most important things you can do is get a whistle & tell your family & friends & neighbors to do the same. If people blow their whistle when they see CBP that takes away CBP’s ability to surprise vulnerable people.

I am certainly no defender of Erika Kirk, but this is bonkers. Transphobia is a vile sickness that has infected our country and we must push back against it even it it's targeting extremist rightwing people. www.them.us/story/charli...

Thank you Mother Jones for this profile of our work. Getting over 100 bill signed into law — including some bangers that are having big impacts — has been a deep honor. I’m grateful to my colleagues & the community coalitions we’ve worked w/ in the “Department of Getting Sh*t Done.”

Everyone, his administration is crumbling. I think the end is near. 🤞

Conservatism: America’s Empathy Disorder cmarmitage.substack.com/p/conservati...

I have absolutely no idea how anyone could imagine that Trump would handle the economy well, let alone anything else. He has a long history of business failures and grifts. Still, I'm glad some of the MAGA crowd is finally coming to their senses. www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/11/maga...

Look at all the green on this map. If all those countries can have universal healthcare, we can too. It should be considered a basic human right. Medicare For All is probably the best path to universal healthcare in the US. worldpopulationreview.com/country-rank...

If you are reading this, I hope you are having a good day. I know the world can seem like a shitshow sometimes, but finding joy in day-to-day moments is where happiness lies.

What Trump has begun to learn is that even a skilled liar like him will eventually be tripped up because the best of liars ultimately can't keep their various lies in alignment forever.

This is one of my favorite @onguardsalon.bsky.social episodes we have done. Not only is Mike Hernandez an incredibly articulate guest, he also has a great sense of humor. youtu.be/JSr0UejnUmM?...

If you live in Tennessee's District 7, vote for Aftyn Behn. Early voting is now, November 12-26. The election date is December 2nd.

In my opinion, Abigail Thorn of Philosophy Tube is one of the best and most thoughtful content creators working today. In this video she debunks the dire warnings so many proliferate about declining and aging populations. youtu.be/AIDnr646tLA?...

The US isn't the only country to give billionaires breaks even if it means people die as a result.

Katie Wilson, a democratic socialist leaning candidate, has been elected Mayor of Seattle. It feels like the political winds are shifting for the better.

This might seem like a trite observation, but "look out for one another" encapsulates the ethos of San Francisco. That is how we function here, as one big community of people who care about each other.

Newly released emails confirm that Trump — and Ghislaine Maxwell — have been lying about Trump's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/epst...

I’m pretty sure Trump is in the Epstein files

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN FILES !

It appears more Republicans than expected are going to break ranks and vote to release the Epstein files. Let's hope this is Trump's Watergate and brings down his presidency. 🤞

happy epstein thermonuclear launch day to all who celebrate

The fact that Trump is calling Mace and Boebert today pleading with them to remove their names from the Epstein petition at the last minute tells you everything you need to know about how incriminating the info in the files is to him and his cronies.
