Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

It's nearly the end of February and I just realized I hadn't posted any photos of @aba.org's bird of the year, the Horned Lark. So here's an accommodating one and a flock in flight, both taken at the Carrizo Pkain National Monument. 🪶

Are you kidding me? @bcdreyer.social

It's still #WingsOverWater day here in California. Wood Ducks flying over a local lake. #BirdOfTheDay. 🪶

To my mind, this is the single tweet that explains 95% of the energy behind the MAGA movement.

"To cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal is our only legitimate hope of survival" Wendell Berry

March 27, 1936: Portraits of the Führer are raised on official buildings across Berlin. This one at the Potsdamer Railway Station reads "Freedom - Peace"

Bloomberg says we've spent $3B on Trump's invasion of Venezuela. Which is 6X more than the cancer, Alzheimer, diabetes, and heart disease cures they've cut to pay for it. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

no foreign foe has ever dreamed of being able to sack and pillaging this country the way Trump admin and its congressional and scotus enablers do every day.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

MAGA is not popular and their hold on power is crumbling under the focus and strength of mutual aid and common decency. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

MAGA is a movement of America haters who despise this country and are conspiring to destroy it

The damage Trump and billionaires have done to America is generational. If we're lucky it will take 10 to 20 years to recover but we're never going to reach the high watermark again. We chose self immolation.

When historians reflect on this regime, cruelty will be the word most often used to define it. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

The media reports, over and over, how cold it is in the eastern US, but they're silent about how hot it is in the west. The lower-48 were almost a degree hotter than average in January. And there's terrible snowpack in the west, critical for water supply, as what little precipitation has been rain.

@espnpr.bsky.social Leaving out full games in the #australianopen #ao2026 televised replays? And the announcers pretend it didn't happen? How low can you go? Your coverage is abominable.

Probably the most successful piece of legislation in US history, measured by social benefit generated per dollar spent. Also wildly popular, across demographics. Without any public discussion or consultation of Congress, the Trump administration has effectively killed it.

in the words of ICE agents themselves, “boo hoo”

It is important to keep repeating this, because these 23 people continue to get complete free passes every day while the fascism & incineration of American national security keep happening.

The U.S. officially exits the World Health Organization. I know we are beyond asking why the Regime does the awful things they do because the answer is always greed, hatefulness or stupidity but sometimes I just can’t help wondering WTF is wrong with these people. abcnews.go.com/Health/us-of...

Even after Trump is gone, the world will remember that he threatened to forcibly seize the territory of a peaceful democratic ally, and our institutions failed to immediately remove him. That makes US dangerously unreliable, not just one senile gangster.

This is one of the ten people in the country who could put an immediate stop to ~90% of the things. Today. Just absolute Profiles in Cowardice.

The moment it was crystal clear we were in the worse case scenario, was exactly a year ago when Trump pardoned every single Jan 6 perpetrator, including the ones that beat the crap out of cops and were convicted of seditious conspiracy.

It's not debatable that a mentally disturbed person has the nuclear codes. The Republicans know they're endangering us all by leaving him in office. This is a betrayal of every person on Earth. It is a crime against humanity.

Tonight's reminder that fewer than 10 people can end the worst of all of this immediately, simply by caucusing with Democrats & giving them control of both chambers of Congress. Absolute Profiles in Cowardice. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King. This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

Worth tracking down tonight's Anderson Cooper's AC360, first ten minutes, w Sen @gallego.senate.gov . Gallego is holding nothing back. (See attached image, from this story www.rawstory.com/ruben-galleg... I heard this live.) Text gives you the gist; worth finding video for the vibe.

For some reason, very few people these days will stand up and say it, but: the US federal bureaucracy is one of the great wonders of the world, staffed with incredibly diligent people who do their jobs well and care deeply. Trump's destruction of the federal apparaus was a historic crime.

Where the fuck is Congress!? He's insane.

I can't repeat this enough.

That there’s not a massive, credible, instant, bipartisan impeachment/25th Amendment move over these senseless and destructive Greenland threats is a sign of how broken our politics are — and especially how broken the Republican Party is.

Stick this directly in my veins

Senator Susan Collins killed the amendment to protect the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) -- perhaps the world's premier research center for work on #weather, #climate, models, and remote sensing. Remember that.

Reminder: All of this started because our racist president targeted Minnesota because he doesn’t like Somalis, who are Black. And because he can’t stand the fact that it’s a blue state that rejected him three times. IT REALLY IS THAT SIMPLE THATS HOW DERANGED AND DAMAGED THE PRESIDENT IS

I can't wait until this criminal rapist traitor kicks the bucket and is dragged to hell. He has taken so much from us. So much of our time, our energy, our mental health. One day he will go inshallah. Until then we resist him and organize and fight back.

Exactly.

This is so incredibly heart-breaking. To Jay Bhattacharya and Matthew Memoli at NIH--you have betrayed the entire scientific community. Deeply committed staff are leaving in droves--because you are destroying the institution. Shame on you. www.statnews.com/2026/01/10/n...

7 Democrats just voted today to confirm a Trump judicial nominee who refused to say what happened on January 6 or answer who won the 2020 election: Durbin Hassan Kaine King Klobuchar Shaheen Welch

BREAKING: the Trump admin is green-lighting Utah's attempt to assert control over 8 million acres of public land without a vote, notice or public input. After failing to seize public lands outright, Utah is chipping away at at public land ownership at large. biologicaldiversity.org/w/news/press...

Democrats need to understand that they can just say “It’s insane to threaten Greenland” and “I don’t think ICE should murder Americans in the street” and you don’t need to pretend to link it to the affordability crisis. Say bad things are bad.

This is insane. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Once again, a mere handful of people in Washington could caucus today with the Democrats & put an end to ~90% of the worst things immediately. They even have names: bsky.app/profile/mcop... We should stop giving these people free passes every day & yell at them like everyone yells at Democrats.

Yet another American tragedy.

Nothing else matters beyond this: It was illegal, unconstitutional, and immoral. The entire discussion of our act of war against Venezuela begins & ends with this: It was illegal, unconstitutional, and immoral. Today’s show. Have a listen.👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Once more, it’s time for us to act. Between now and Jan. 23, the federal Bureau of Ocean Energy Management is taking public comments on this deeply flawed proposal. The administration needs to hear — in no uncertain terms — that its leasing plan is dead on arrival. bit.ly/49FRhNq
