A win! Thank you for always making your voices heard. The House passed a DHS funding bill by voice vote this afternoon, ending a 75-day shutdown the longest agency shutdown in U.S. history. The GOP caved. The bill funds DHS but includes no money for ICE or Customs and Border Protection.

I'm going to be shouting out Black southern fiction you need to read. Because not in this house are we going to be hating on the south neglecting it as a home of Black folks & our culture. I will start with my own debut novel. This posting project continues as I have time & until I run out of steam.

I really don't want to get into political stuff, but these are intensely political times: Dear fellow white people, don't stand up to an injustice done to another group because white people might be next. Stand up because it's an injustice. It's really not that complicated.

👇🏽😕🇺🇸

So many people urge us to vote if we are dissatisfied with our democracy. And yes voting matters. But as today’s Supreme Court ruling tells us, it’s not that simple. Not everyone who should have the right to vote can exercise that right.

THE CONFEDERACY DIDN'T END. IT EVOLVED. History shows up in policy. Pay attention. @splcenter www.laprogressive.com/racism/white...

We say ‘don’t normalize this’ for a reason. When Americans look back (years from now) they’re going to be shocked by their failure to act on the systemic incremental abuses of power and stripping of rights. The rest of us are already there.

We can't have any business as usual until all establishment politicians are gone. 0n both sides of the aisle.

Ok, now I think it was staged instead of "they knew and let it happen". It reads like a damn Three Stooges skit. www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

Jesus when he saw how they painted his portrait:

These are AMAZING

I hope he loses his primary. We need to be all hands on deck, not pretending to govern in a country where the rule of law no longer matters.

Oh I fucking hate this

Accurate and Very Well Said….

This was my first thought as well. They don't have to find someone to pretend, all they have to do is let a credible threat happen.

Once you start to understand that there is a powerful and influential minority of Americans who think democracy is a bad idea, you start to understand the fight we are in

To All democratic politicians: You better think again.. Or YOU WILL BE REMOVED BY FORCE WE ARE DONE WITH YOUR BULLSHIT

📌Barack Obama was targeted 11 times in assassination attempts during this two terms. I bet you don't remember any of them because they were handled through proper channels, professionally, and he isn't a whiny bitch.

What a disgusting disgrace for a President. 🖕🍊🌮💩 ✊🔥✊

They think we are all stupid. 🤬

My conclusions were made seconds after I saw a headline but it's good to know the facts.

What the ever loving fuck??? That's WHY we're voting thehill.com/homenews/hou...

About last night’s scrambling from gun fire at White House reporters dinner .. Rep Jamie Raskin (D-MD) makes a critical point on CNN: “This is happening in schools across the country.. the kids have no resources to process their trauma”

Fraudsters gonna fraud

One of the fastest ways for a regime to fall is starving the troops protecting it.

Ooooh they got an example now. This is going to be amazing US soldier charged with using classified intel to win $400K Polymarket bet on Maduro raid apnews.com/article/soli...

Kinda reads as though the POTUS wrote this

"I think I'm speaking more for the UK than Prince Harry" This is the same mindset that allows to talk over any marginalized person they encounter. "You're just one person, I'm sure I'm speaking for everyone else and you're just the outlier because you disagree with me"

I will never forget Neil deGrasse Tyson's post belittling people for being excited about an eclipse. In my mind there is room for joy and wonder in science and I don't have any strong feelings towards him one way or another, but every time I see him online I remember that one comment.

Starlings are beyond plentiful but to me that doesn't negate their beauty. They come through Central PA in DROVES and both my cat and I love sitting by the window to watch them in the yard. This is one of my favorite shots I managed to capture. I don't remember which camera I used though 😿

Happy #WorldBookDay I write & illustrate books about inclusion & diversity everyone deserves to see someone who looks like them 💜🦋♾️🫶🏽🌻 #inclusionmatters #autismacceptance

Pay attention y’all. We have a white man who celebrated his victory too early, and got beat by a black man who sprinted to the finish line. And all the major news outlets are talking about how the white man lost. “Upset” “win stolen” no coverage from the winners perspective. Let that sink in.

Screw That Data Center,And Others. Shorter Showers, All While Much Of The Country Is In A Very Bad Drought, Stupid Waste Of Resources, FOR RICH INVESTORS........

HUGE WIN! H.R. 1897 the bill that would have gutted Endangered Species Act protections for threatened and endangered species has been pulled from today’s House floor vote. Your calls and pressure worked. Thank you for speaking up.

DENMARK AND FRANCE 🇩🇰🇫🇷 bans all Microsoft products from all public offices. The phaseout is expected to be completed before autumn 2026. Their products are being replaced with customer versions of Linux and LibreOffice. This is digital sovereignty being taken back

I often think about Voyager 1 and 2. Humanity managed to send *two* spacecraft into interstellar space - the vast expanse between stars. AND WE'RE STILL RECEIVING DATA FROM THEM. Imagine what we could do now with a funded space science program!

Where is this peace? It's not in Gaza. It's not in Iran. It's not in Lebanon. It's not in the United States. It's not with the farmers. It's not with the tech bros. It's not with the cis white men. it's not with the homeless vets. He is the president of deceit, dishonor, and division.

We really gotta stop arguing with the people who have lived experiences when all we have are data and statistics, *if even that*. You don't get to disagree with someone's lived experiences. Like that's just not an option, and trying to do so makes you look pretty awful.

Are the women back there somewhere? Yes, I think I see them.

lol I just learned about prediction markets, and we need to put tech bros in permanent timeout.

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

Holy shit @washingtonpost.com y'all are really slobbering on that fascist dick all the way to the balls aren't ya?
