Great exploration of the importance of Empathy, Kindness & Respect and other habits of mind in today's challenging world from Special Effects master Adam Savage. @hcrichardson.bsky.social @bandylee.bsky.social @katiecouric.bsky.social @jerilryan.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMtc...

While Stephen Miller claims that Democrats calling him a fascist constitutes incitement, there are hundreds of examples of Miller publicly calling Democrats fascists.

We need to make the Democratic Party the party with the answers.

Portland is peaceful. "Antifa" is fictitious. Worldviews vehemently against fascism are ethical and wise. Inciting violence is pathologic.

Leadership is all about bringing people together. That was the goal of the Founding Fathers when the launched the “American experiment” nearly 250 years ago. And that’s the kind of leadership we need now!

#Pinks #ProudBlue Johnson refuses to swear in the Democrat in Arizona after she won her election in a landslide. Adelita Grijalva becomes the 218th signature to … #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

JUST IN: A federal judge in Vermont has ordered the release of a woman in the US illegally who has applied for a visa as a survivor of human trafficking. She was arrested by ICE on her way to a mandatory "biometrics" appointment as part of that process. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump can and will inflict more harm, let's not fool ourselves, but standing up and pushing back works. In a sense, I wrote about this way back in May, when Judge Beryl Howell struck down Trump's order attacking the Perkins Coie law firm.

Please everyone in #WarRavagedPortland post your best photographs of the devastation there so that you will not suffer alone!!

They'll send in their proud boys and other right-wing agitators to do some violent shit in order to create an excuse for whatever it is they want to do. Don't take the bait, Portland! Stay calm and peaceful, whatever they do.

America: pay attention. The grift is off the charts. While Americans are paying more for groceries, Trump is making shady backroom deals. He's selling out our national security and economic dominance to enrich himself and his family.

Portland is one of the friendliest cities you'll ever visit. It's not "War ravaged" or "under siege" by anyone. FACTS.

Thank you, Nobel Peace Prize Committee! 🙏🏻☮️❤️ @katiecouric.bsky.social @timothysnyder.bsky.social @theviewabc.bsky.social

As it should be!

Unfortunately this is not a snippet from a movie but a real footage from Chicago at night.

After Ilhan Omar & I discussed Charlie Kirk’s assassination, that both of us condemned, conservatives screenshotted an unrelated part of the convo where we were momentarily smiling & ridiculously claimed we were ‘celebrating’ his death. It’s an easy enough, & very cynical, trick to play. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Trump's assault on Portland is not just a fascist power grab, although it is certainly that. It is frothing at the mouth, howling at the moon, eating bugs and bats for breakfast lunacy. But it's also a sign of weakness, not of strength. My latest. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

The rules have not changed. They've been selectively applied for years. With not enough pushback, so here we the fuck are.

Mike Johnson doesn't want the Epstein files released so he's postponing swearing her in.

Team felon manipulating politics Release Epstein Files

Completely un-democratic move by Speaker Johnson: refusing to swear in newly elected Democrat!!! ‼️🚨 #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles @hcrichardson.bsky.social @katiecouric.bsky.social @jerilryan.bsky.social @tribelaw.bsky.social @judgeluttig.bsky.social

Mike Johnson refuses to swear in a Democrat who won her election in a landslide just so he can block a vote on the Epstein files. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

President Trump called for Microsoft to fire Lisa Monaco, the company’s president of global affairs, the latest in a series of moves targeting former government officials he perceives as political opponents

The line to cross the Kerch bridge heading out of Crimea is HUGE. It is Friday, but it’s not like it’s the peak vacation season… It’s because there’s no fuel.

There is no metric or data you can point to which shows that Ryan Walters has not systematically wrecked the OK school system before quitting. Fox surely knows this. And yet they platform him constantly for culture war BS. Which shows how little they care about kids education.

While Jimmy Kimmel is back on air, the fight for free speech isn't over. Read the full letter.

MUST WATCH @weissmann.substack.com says THIS IS THE END OF THE RULE OF LAW.

And the GOP could care less 🤮

By no means is this hyperbole 👉

Ryan Walters is gone. Oklahoma’s school children now have a chance to escape being in last place in America’s education rankings! 🎉🎉🎉🧑‍🎓👩‍🎓 @katiecouric.bsky.social

Even with 20% of ABC stations still boycotting his show, I love this for Fat Satan.”

Trump to low-income seniors: Screw you!

tbh, i aint reading no nyt. but mamdani! woop! go mamdani! 🤘

Kimmel is back, but many Americans won’t be able to watch. Two companies — Nexstar and Sinclair — control hundreds of local TV stations and have business deals pending Donald Trump’s approval. They won’t air Kimmel tonight. I’m pressing for answers on potential corruption.

I have never been more proud to be Canadian thanks to Mark Carney he was exactly the right person to lead in such turbulent times. We are looking more like the leader of the free world since the US dropped the ball in the biggest way. I never thought America would be such a laughing stock.

Reason one million and ten I love NYC: Every single time I need to get my giant double stroller up or down stairs or up into the bus, a kind stranger jumps in to help me. Every single time!

If @jimmykimmel.com is blacked out where you live (Sinclair 🤮), you can see what happens on YouTube. Not live but still available! @katiecouric.bsky.social @jimacosta.bsky.social @jerilryan.bsky.social youtube.com/@jimmykimmel...

I know what l'm doing at 11:30 pm tonight: turning on ABC to see if they're airing Jimmy Kimmel Live. If they DON'T, I'll note of every commercial that's run & I will boycott every single advertiser. If they DO air Kimmel, I will make a note of every commercial and I will SUPPORT those advertisers.
