“And so, at this moment, we must decide: What kind of nation are we going to be? Are we going to be a nation that accepts political violence as a norm? ... We cannot allow ourselves to be that kind of nation”. ~ Joe Biden, #PresidentsDay

For anyone keeping track of the Iran buildup, we’ve now sent more AWACS into theater. Curious to see how tomorrow’s talks go, but it’s pretty clear the administration isn’t planning for them to be good.

Real Presidents worth remembering on President’s Day amongst several others.

Thomas J. Pritzker, a billionaire heir to the Hyatt Hotels fortune, stepped down from his role as executive chairman of the Hyatt Hotels Corporation — becoming the latest person felled by an association with Jeffrey Epstein. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/16/u...

Anderson Cooper’s exit from 60 Minutes is another sign that Bari Weiss is ruining CBS News in service to an authoritarian regime that wants no accountability journalism. What a disgrace.

Linda Davis, a K-8 teacher in Savannah, Georgia, was killed in a car crash by a man fleeing ICE Local authorities said they were unaware of any ICE operations in the area. "We have a no chase policy," a county chairman said www.wtoc.com/2026/02/16/s...

Trump voters, you got used. Is this not so absolutely obvious to you? Get some self respect and help us beat them.

I think that's about the same % in polls that believe Jesus is a White Conservative American...

There are concentration camps in the USA. People are being disappeared. One facility has 3,500 people, most of them children. Now, what are we going to do about it?!

This Is Definitely His Legacy….

Newsom responds to Marsha…

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today. We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, on elections: In the past, we’ve mostly seen foreign interference — my bigger fear now is domestic interference, some of that potentially originating inside the administration.

Does that seem fair to you?

@maddow.bsky.social This sweet family shows up at every protest in very red Spartanburg, SC. Today was special.

They attack. We mobilize. They escalate violence. We escalate solidarity. Every act of cruelty makes our movement STRONGER. Proof: March 28. #NoKings2026

But the reality is, if they passed the SAVE Act they wouldn’t even be “fixing” the problem they created What they would actually be doing would be disenfranchising millions of Americans-including their own base

It’s crazy to me how many people in posts and in my replies feel comfortable saying Talarico is the more electable candidate for US Senate because he’s white and more likely to beat a Republican in the general. 📌 The last time a white Dem won a US Senate race in Texas was Bentsen in 1988. 1/2

I have said this to my elected officials. We might not be able to stop this, but we can slow it down significantly. Do that by “throwing sand in the gears” Make sure you contact your local officials as well as Federal MoC. (Use @resist.bot to make it easy) #Resist H/T @lunaluvgood2020.bsky.social

NO KINGS!! NO EDICTS!!

The #EpsteinFiles are evidence in a criminal case against adult pedophiles, rapists, & those complicit with them, in the sexual abuse of children. Be disgusted. Get mad. Follow the law. Prosecute these vile perpetrators of child abuse.

The Trump admin must reverse this disastrous decision to withhold NASA funds. These cuts would be devastating for NASA’s workforce and our leadership in science and space exploration. www.eenews.net/articles/whi...

Keep up the pressure. Voting is the ONLY peaceful systemic means we have of making change. We cannot let them steal that from us.

Roses are red Lilies have risen Who’s gonna send all these fuckers to prison

Many people knew what was going on with Jeffrey Epstein & Ghislaine Maxwell, even in parts. Trigger warning for the subpost video. It's nightmarish! The things that are being revealed are so vile that it's hard to believe such evil exists, so some people just thought these allegations were nuts.

Another barrier to obtaining passports. While it impacts only a small share of libraries, reduced access can make it harder for Americans to secure passports—especially as Republicans push the SAVE Act, which would require a passport as voter ID.

Ought-oh😱!!

When people around you don’t know why the government is partially shut down, read them this story. Tell them the government is partially shut down because Republicans insist on THIS continuing and are willing to sacrifice FEMA and the TSA over it.

Voter fraud is not a real problem. Our problem isn’t non-citizens illegally voting in our elections. The real problem is American citizens not voting in our elections. And our even bigger problem is voter suppression.

The map goes live on Tuesday!! ❌👑 🚫🤴 READY? Our next mass mobilization is MARCH 28. We will make it clear to this president: We don’t do kings in America. If he thinks we’ll roll over, he is MISTAKEN. Silence is not an option. We defend our communities. #NoKings2026 social.demcast.com/s/1kXKNmco
