Kimmel wasn’t fired for his remarks on Kirk—he was fired for using his platform to expose and critique our government. Enough! We especially need large corporations, with the money and influence they have, to fight back. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ki...

The nationwide day of economic disruption is almost here. Plus, we’re paying close attention to key votes on DHS funding, government surveillance, and Trump’s illegal war.

The largest school districts in North Carolina are all shutting down for May Day at the request of the teachers' union. 1 million union members in New Jersey are backing a large May Day action. May Day is gonna be HUGE this year w/ strikes in at least 85 cities! paydayreport.com/n-c-largest-...

So true

So many times we've seen this same thing . . . the whole rightwing influencer/podcaster cadre parroting the same batshit talking points Trump is pushing. Pretty damned transparent 🫩

Breaking News! Ezra & Leah of @indivisible.org just revealed that 7% of a representative poll of all US voters said they attended #NK #NoKingsDay. 27% said they'd be at the next one! The poll is coming out within the next 24 hours. Wow. Have we broken the 3.5% yet?

In one night? You mean a nuclear attack? This man is truly the Devil (agnostically speaking.)

HI Francesa, well he doesn't represent Extinction Rebellion -- they have distanced themselves from him entirely. I did debunk him here: bsky.app/profile/mich... But the various claims he makes are debunked in detail in "Science Under Siege", "Our Fragile Moment", and esp "The New Climate War".

Despite what some major pundits are trying to convince us, Israel is in the driver seat of US policy in Iran, not Trump.

I feel like normalcy bias is preventing people from talking about the Iran war as a war against Iran backed by RU (meaning we're damned close to world war, and Trump is about to flip sides), and also from the economic catastrophe Trump has caused.

It seems like #Trump is preparing to hole up underground while his military enablers and DHS goons prevent, undermine or reverse the elections of 2026 and/or 2028. This is not a joke.

Clockwise: my signs for Hands Off, NK-1, NK-2 and getting ready for NK-3! 🔥🫶✊ #NoKings, @indivisible.org, @indivisiblehampton.bsky.social

I just wrote a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social letter: Angry about your energy bills? Here's what you can do right now.. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/angr...

Balanced Weather Good to see a weatherman who actually gives the bigger picture. balancedweather.substack.com?r=183be&utm_...

The current pause is just to calm the market (and to make some money from insider trading) but if you look at what the military is doing, the push for a ground invasion continues.

The president is withholding disaster aid to states that didn't vote for him in the last election, in the middle of a worsening climate emergency that he is actively intensifying. This is end-game level failed-state stuff.

TONIGHT: Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social is expected to force a vote on War Powers Resolutions aimed at stopping Trump’s illegal war with Iran. The American public is firmly against this conflict. None of us want another forever war. Make sure your senators hear from you.
