An ally would have stayed and fought for things like Healthcare and exposing pedophiles instead of waiting till the exact day their own lifetime Healthcare plan kicked in to retire & be replaced by someone who won't fight for those things she claims to believe in. She's a self-serving quiter.

Splitting with anti-abortion members of his own party, Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Robin Vos has refused to join 48 other states in ensuring that vulnerable women have access to potentially lifesaving care for up to a year after giving birth. By @megomatz.bsky.social

Amazon's "free" return policy is discriminatory towards disabled people. The only options available throught the app to return items (even defective items) involve driving somewhere or paying UPS to pickup the item. They don't offer USPS returns - who pickup at no charge.

If school districts are so proud of their book bans, why are they banning authors from discussing book bans? bookriot.com/authors-bann...

My assumption would be a pivot to punditry / Fox commentator or other similar grift. She assumed office on 1/3/21, so 1/6/26 will give her the five years required to get a congressional pension and lifetime access to FEHB health insurance. And it'd get her out of the blast radius of a GOP collapse.

Noting the congressional pension is based on service time, it kicks in at 5 years and her retirement date - Jan. 5, 2026 - will be the first business day after she passes five years since her first swearing in. bsky.app/profile/heli...

The government has no business spying on court watchers' group chats. Monitoring the courts is First Amendment-protected activity. Period.

New data from the Department of Justice found that 97% of the 600+ Chicagoans abducted by ICE had no criminal records. Trump’s thugs terrorized our city for just a handful of lawbreakers. We need to get ICE under control before they attack other cities as well. #ice #chicago

GIFT ARTICLE - “All were treated like suspected violent criminals, forced into tiny cells, dressed in prison uniforms, manacled for transfer.”

Cops are great

Quick, someone get RFK...

I mean, there have been some truly legendary moments. The Boston Bruins deciding to fight the fans at the Garden AFTER the game, and Mike Milbury beating a guy with his own shoe...those were the days... Last night was so soft in comparison.

This Transgender Day of Remembrance, I'm thinking of our trans neighbors whose lives were stolen by hate & prejudice. Folks like Rita Hester, a Black trans woman and beloved community member who was killed in the #MA7, and whose murder sparked this important day of recognition.

One of the people arrested on September 27 at Broadview was a 70-yo Air Force veteran who was hospitalized with his injuries from ICE assault. First charged w/felony, then misdemeanor. He was going to call Greg Bovino at trial. It just got dismissed. www.courtlistener.com/docket/71489...

These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott. From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

Abortion is healthcare. Why do ERs ask women if theyre pregnant & wait for test results before treating them? If my treatment is dependent on whether or not I'm pregnant, not being pregnant should be an option.

People on TikTok were talking about a "big brawl" at an NHL game last night, so I went looking for it, and was like "PHHHHHHHHHT." A lot of grabbing, no sweaters over the head, no yard sale activities, LAME. Raise your hand if you remember "Fight Night on Long Island" back in 2011. 🙋‍♀️ #NHL

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

😁

"Quiet, piggy!"

dammit (complimentary)

This is beyond horrific. ICE is responsible for the well-being of people in immigration detention and it is failing that responsibility miserably. Mr. Ge’s loved ones and the American people need answers immediately. www.newsweek.com/ice-detainee...

I feel overwhelmed with gratitude to a local physician who bought my book in bulk so that she could plant copies in Little Free Libraries around our city to reach the public with its messaging in a grassroots way. She made a collage of her efforts and delivered it to me today. 🙏

NEW: The Trump administration continues to face wrongful deportation claims amid ramped up immigration enforcement. One of the latest cases involves a transgender woman sent to Mexico despite an order barring that due to her risk of torture or death -- "inadvertently," per DOJ bit.ly/3XEvsac

Mob bosses are smarter than him. He acts like what he thinks a mob boss is supposed to be like based entirely on TV shows & movies.

Last Thanksgiving, two Dallas Police officers knocked on my door, citing a tip from the FBI national threat operations center that I was beating my girlfriend. The incident report confirms this. Today, I obtained a file from the FBI via FOIA that states the FBI has no record of receiving such a tip.

“ At just 16 years old, she took a job at Mar a Lago, believing she had secured a dream summer position. But that dream quickly morphed into a nightmare when Ghislaine Maxwell preyed upon her…. They trafficked her”

Waiting for ICE to start doing this in the US.

NEW—US Park Police w/ DHS officers near DC are increasingly pulling over Black and brown men, leaving their work vans on the side of the parkway + immediately calling a local towing company to take them. Families who just lost their breadwinner are stuck with the bill. @melbuer.bsky.social reports:

The Salvation Army are a hate group. Do not forget that this winter.

This is terrifying

The end of the de minimis exemption is one of the more exceptionally stupid, and punitive (on Americans), Trumper moves. The cost of fairly enforcing this on each shipment would likely far exceed the tariffs. So purchasers are already being treated unfairly.

Coons on Epstein files: "My hunch is that AG Bondi, having just been ordered on social media by the president to open an investigation into a series of high-profile Dems, will promptly say, 'No, there's an ongoing investigation, we can't disclose any of this,' and the president will back that up."

🚨Another Veteran of the USAF has been violently arrested by ICE - at 0600, in Portland, OR. This time, the arrest was on Veteran’s Day. If anyone has any information about anyone seen in this video, please follow up with the account on IG. 1/2

Will Adam Schiff & Eric Swallwell get $500,000 too, since Trump did the same thing to them during his first term. www.politico.com/news/2024/12...

@nytimes.com—women didn't ruin the workplace, but sexual harassment, lack of equal pay, pregnancy discrimination, gender bias, lack of advancement and leadership opportunities, double standards, microaggressions, unaffordable child care, & the glass ceiling certainly did

Welp!

Who wants to start a go fund me to buy the naming rights to the Washington Commanders new stadium so we can call it "Obama Field" just to piss off Trump who is trying to bully the Commanders into forgoing the millions of dollars in naming rights $$$ to name it after him.

Trump - making food unaffordable & telling us prices are down,

There's a lot of nuance at play, here's a helpful summary of the state of affairs: www.kff.org/womens-healt...

I keep seeing posts about a specific TV show that I just have no interest in. I've never engaged with any posts about this show & I keep hitting, "show less like this" but the algorithm keeps showing me posts about this show.

My fave movies ... Ever After Austin Powers Shakespeare in Love Airplane

this is literally never not accurate
