California is the fourth-largest economy in the world. @clarajeffery.bsky.social writes that it’s time the Golden State—and other blue states—used their economic clout to fight Trump’s agenda.

Portland never stops being Portland.

The history teacher is going to be stuck on “why didn’t the Biden admin punish sedition and why was a seditionist even allowed to run for president again” for a long, long time…Americans stopped believing they had a functional government long before they started believing they had a fascist one

💯👏🏼👏🏼💯

Just irredeemable pieces of shit. We're going to need a modern-day equivalent to the Wiesenthal Center to hunt down and arrest MAGA immigration criminals once this is over.

really seems like @govpritzker.illinois.gov is talking out of both sides of his mouth. either step in or stop pretending.

It’s probably a good time for people to wrap their heads around a near total monopoly of news and media by either overt fascists or fascist-friendly accomplices. This isn’t doomerism, it’s preparing for how reality will be warped and weaponized and understanding the fight we have in front of us.

@agpambondi.govpeeps.com this partisan post on the DOJ website is an illegal violation of the Hatch Act and must be removed immediately

Do it! Do it now! Do it very loud! Do it peacefully. But just do it! #pushback #resist #speakuploudly #speakouttruthfully #nevermypresident

For years we warned about this: The “Enabling Act of 1933”, which allowed Hitler to seize control of all branches of the German government, served as the template for “Project 2025” — and Trump’s DNA is all over it.

Gavin Newsom announces that any California university that caves to Trump and signs his “loyalty pledge” will be immediately defunded. “CALIFORNIA WILL NOT BANKROLL SCHOOLS THAT SELL OUT THEIR STUDENTS.”

Barbra Streisand is joining Jane Fonda and 600+ entertainment figures in re-launching the Committee for the First Amendment. Fonda announced the revival of the organization, initially founded by her father, Henry Fonda. The organization was founded in the 1940s to defend free speech against fascism.

Priorities.

Remember being told, don't judge a book by its cover? Well, this administration is trying to steal your data: medical, prescription, etc. all under the guise of "lower costs". But it's not true. #ProudBlue #ThisisTrumpsShutdown Video Credit: Elizabeth Orlins, IG

This is what Trump is afraid of… we have to get this message out:

Well, the federal government has officially shut down, and it’s entirely the fault of Trump and the Republican Party. They control the White House and Congress. They cancelled multiple meetings with Democrats to hash out an agreement. They clearly wanted a shutdown. Pathetic.

Dem messaging right now should be this, loud and clear: "The GOP would rather shut down the government than let the American people have affordable healthcare." On repeat and everywhere.

I JUST called Governor Hochul, thanked her for the Inflation check & asked her to align herself with Governor Pritker. Took less than 1 minute.🙏

The awesome video team at the New York Times helped me make this video about the shutdown and Obamacare premiums.

If we had real headlines: President Declares War on America: Orders Generals to Use Citizens as Training Ground

Flowers is a great idea!

We’re headed for the first shutdown since the last time Trump was in office. The framing of trying to give Medicaid to illegals is absolute nonsense. The average family of four is paying up to *$1500* a month on the insurance marketplace. Dems wanted to help. GOP refused.

Hegseth’s was like a guy they bring in to hype up employees at a corporate convention in Dubuque, ‘You’re not just Mary Kay Cosmetics reps you’re murderers! Get out there & destroy!!’ Also, can anyone give me a ride to Chili’s later, my car has one of those breathalyzer things’.

If we still had anything resembling a functioning Constitution, he would be impeached by lunchtime & convicted & removed from office by the close of business today.

Trump is planning martial law in real time. Wake up. He's admitting the supervillain plot.

Veterans, their friends, their families, let's unite. Let's stand up for the country against tyranny. We need them with us, the majority.

The President turning the military against Americans is a bigger story than the shutdown and media outlets should treat it accordingly.

Portland not backing down.

People who appreciate the intoxicating euphoria of reading from a real dictionary expertly hand-crafted by diligent human lexicographers. Also. people who love the Oxford Comma more than some family members.

Kind of odd how, after all the other lies, the lie that was finally enough to get major media outlets to honestly describe Trump admin actions in their headlines was "Tylenol causes autism," but whatever we'll take it. And hope they keep doing it, as they should've all along.

BREAKING NEWS: TYLENOL RESEARCHERS FIND DISTURBING LINK BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND JEFFREY EPSTEIN

Kimmel: "The President of the United States made it very clear he wants to see me and the hundreds of people who work here fired from our jobs. Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he cannot take a joke."

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

The MAGA regime has now ended the annual Hunger Survey which was a government effort started in the 1990s to analyze food insecurity in the United States. He wants to cover up all data on how many Americans are starving. The cruelty has always been the point.

I read these articles as they emerged in print. I know how hard it is to write with a broken heart from the broken heart of America, and @sarahkendzior.bsky.social has more courage than most of us to keep writing anyway.

Let’s read up!

It’s really all we should be talking about today.

An uplifting tale for your Saturday.

This is what actual freedom of speech looks like — join in www.nokings.org

Per Reuters, Pentagon has informed European diplomats that the United States will partially halt military assistance to the Baltic nations and NATO member states bordering Russia. The department stated that the decision is linked to the United States’ new priority — “homeland defense.”

PLEASE watch this video by HasanAbi. He's been fighting Trump for years. The vast majority of his followers are GenZ but what he's saying should resonate with all true Americans right now. PLEASE repost this if you agree with him. This is no time to stand down. www.youtube.com/shorts/gsxZP...

😂🤪🤣

🚨NEW: Stephen Colbert's opening tonight will forever be remembered as one of the most powerful moments of late-night comedy in modern history. This is a must-watch. Damn. 🔥

1. Just so we’re clear, this is the clip that got Jimmy Kimmel’s show shelved by ABC. If I’m missing any other clips please let me know.

We were a little curious what it would be like to have a thin-skinned pedo racist narcissistic senile geriatric psychopath criminal for a president. It’s going exactly how we’ve imagined it. Good job America. Fuck you MAGA.
