Wouldn't it be nice if you could say goodbye to TurboTax and file your taxes for free, online, and directly with the IRS? I have a bill to get that done.

I read the “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this summary helps raise awareness. 1/

I have a dream

I just wrote to our Director of Communications at #SFU asking them to cancel our contract with @hootsuite.com unless they drop their contract with ICE. I've been asking them to stop using X for years, and asked again. You can do the same. #AcademicSky

We're Broadway bound, baby! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🙌🙏🫶💪👏✊️👇

This is Rosie. We do not know what she is asking for, but we need you to give it to her right away. 13/10 please hurry (IG: rosalinathepittie)

One of many reasons to learn languages

Every church should be doing this, and if your church isn’t, you’re at the wrong church.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it. The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait. At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Just make an effort today

Here are my top 10 big stretches!

THANK YOU to our supporters who've stepped up during this critical moment. If you haven't given, here's how you can help: 👉 1. Donate to help keep journalists on the ground: n.pr/458sOhq 👉 2. Share this post to rally friends and family behind this essential service. Every dollar counts.

NEW ANGLE Watch and decide, but I was never fully convinced he was shot in the first place. Never mind that his ear should’ve been blown off—now completely healed. Or that the Secret Service took their time getting him offstage. But from this angle: you see the photographers guided into place…

@colbertlateshow.bsky.social Your show has been one of my primary means of coping with the upheaval that we are all going through. I hope you will continue elsewhere; your audience will follow you!!

Thank you for doing this story @npr.org. My mom lives here, is on Medicare, and has so many friends who depend on Medicaid. Take this away and people will die, let alone the local economy. #Colorado

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Sound familiar?

The fires are so extensive across Manitoba, Saskatchewan & Ontario currently that there are not enough air crafts to rescue remote Native Canadians. I am sending an SOS to every nation to help save the lives of people who are going to burn alive. Literally. Canada needs evacuation assistance.

Trump is defying the courts and ignoring the Constitution while he and his friends get even richer. That means No Kings Day needs to be our biggest and most widespread day of protest yet. There are over 1,000 events planned in all 50 states on June 14. Please join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

TOMORROW: The Senate is expected to vote on a crypto bill that would enable Trump to keep accepting bribes from billionaires, corporations, and foreign governments. We can block S.394 if every Democrat votes no but that’s not a sure thing right now, so your senators need to hear from you. 👇

"America should be run like a business" makes perfect sense—if you don't think about it. Not only does the government provide services and resources that do not easily map to the business world’s profit/loss framework, but it's also designed to be a corrective force to the excesses of business.

If they actually do this, we ALL need to reserve tickets. It sure would be a shame if no one came to his big boy birthday party....

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year — enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare. 👆🏻 This is the crime wave we should be talking more about.

Save our votes by telling your Senators to vote against the SAVE Act, which is really about voter suppression. The Act just passed the House. This is really, really bad, people @demsabroad.bsky.social @roganslist.bsky.social

More of this please

This is Hugo. He is facing off in an epic battle against his toy ball. Just waiting for his opponent to make the first move. 12/10

The letter from the Dept of Ed is not about stamping out antisemitism on campus. It's about controlling/destroying universities as places that foster critical thinking. Don't get it twisted. @roganslist.bsky.social I have signed as an alumna of two institutions on this list. #AcademicSky

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

You know what stunned me about the protests yesterday? There were so many people over 60 out there, especially women. The woman behind me was 91!

Spectacular view of 100,000 people attending the #HandsOff march in NYC

You have to see this. PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

Hey NBC and Seth Meyers, y’all need to book the largest possible venue in D.C. on April 26th and do a competing fundraiser and comedy show that actually celebrates the First Amendment. Televise it. Make Amber Ruffin the central act. Send a message that free speech is non-negotiable.

Martial Law. It’s the elephant in the room. It’s what authoritarians resort to when the tide turns against them. It’s what the authoritarian in this White House is setting the stage for. 🧵…

I appreciate that Jeffrey Goldberg did not sit on this news for a book that he writes two years from now

I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.

#AcademicSky who will responsor/adopt this program?

Keep this in mind: The internment of Japanese Americans during World War II was carried out by executive order—from the President of the United States. 🧵
