Current mood: rage.

Removing an entire segment of your population by force based on arbitrary ethic lines is textbook ethnic cleansing. This is literally exactly what’s happened in Myanmar. The government has used armed forces to violently drive out the Rohingya, forcing them to flee to other countries.

I'm on the Senate floor right now debating Trump's Big Ugly bill, and I really worry Americans do not fully realize just how bad it is. Please help get the word out.   This is just SOME of what's in the bill (so far).

"Only 33% of American children between the ages of 9 and 11 are allowed to bike or walk to a friend’s house alone, according to the Mott survey... They cannot move through the world without their parents there."

with tillis voting no and collins yes on motion to proceed she becomes the chief villain. OK. Now boot her out in 2026.

Thank you, @climate.noaa.gov This is so unnecessary and dumb.

Trump’s Temu Birthday Parade

Hegseth may not have any relevant military experience, but his TV background should have told him that this was horrible (amazing!!!) optics. They're incompetent at EVERYTHING.

We now have the first tanks … and the first raindrops.

Over 3k in my little city of Alameda California.

It's ok. They seem to have a lot of kids lined up there. I'm sure some of them will make it.

WTF? "liberate us from our leadership"!?! Fuck all the way off

The DUI hire who (thinks he) has authority to deploy our troops into our cities has no idea when he has that authority to do that. (hint: this ain't it) Fuck. The STUPIDEST timeline

BREAKING: LAPD didn’t just “detain” someone. They surrounded him, beat him, and jumped him — like a gang. On camera. On horses. While he screamed for help. Unarmed. Cornered. Alone. If that’s not state violence, what the fuck is?

Los Angeles school worker shares frustration over parents having to leave their children’s graduation ceremony because ICE raided an elementary school’s graduation today

this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both drake

I'm actually super fucking mad that the Elon Musk era is gonna end because of narcissist infighting with a former reality TV show host, and not because even a single institution in American life made a serious effort to hold him responsible for a decade plus long crime spree

Flood the line.

Happy #PrideMonth! 🏳️‍🌈

A federal judge blocked the Trump admin's attempt to end New York City's congestion tolling. U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman is a Trump appointee. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

In March and April, a vote on a proposal to close the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge Trail on weekdays to people biking and walking was scheduled twice, then cancelled each time on short notice. Thanks to a public records request we now know what happened. 🧵with details and how to take action:

In these dark times, it’s great to come together and find something we can all take joy in.

Only 1,000,000,000,000 more public meetings to go until we have a mediocre and flawed bike grid in Chicago. Next week please join us to discuss the 6 inches of green paint at 2951 north Broadway. In preparation, we’ve talked to a million small business owners who routinely engage in time theft.

It's been a good Spring in the yard. The Amaryllis is back for her 5th straight year.

This Thursday, millions of people will stand united and speak out against the Trump administration’s illegal assault on our rights and freedoms in the May Day National Day of Action. Find your local event here:

If you want to know why "sharing the road" won't ever work: Drivers are insane.

Utilities are buying huge amounts of stationary storage from Tesla, which is driving some of its only growth. Boycott organizers please take note of this!

The EU just recognized him as an autocrat comparable to Putin. When will Republicans?

Didn’t Ben Franklin say that those willing to trade safety for parking deserve neither safety nor parking?

Bring home Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

Reminders: "Concentration camps" aren't the same as "extermination camps." Both were/are horrific. Most Nazi camps were *outside Germany*, away from the eyes of German citizens. Those trains? Were to, uh, deport the category of people whose lives were deemed unimportant. Never again is now.

Any guess on how far away we are from just taking out anyone who wants an education? Why the fuck are you promoting this piece of crap? www.bbc.com/news/magazin...

rebranding the 15 min city.

Mike Johnson changed the House rules so that a vote for Congress to reclaim authority to do tariffs will never be scheduled, by declaring the rest of this Congressional term one single calendar day. www.wakeuptopolitics.com/p/house-quie.... He could fix all of this before the US markets open.

You can't hold DOJin contempt if they're playing musical chairs with their attorneys. Lawyers working for him, remember EVERYTHING Trump touches, dies. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/jus...

Excellent 9 min explainer on just how bad this is.

Who did this?

We went 100% in on capitalism -- an unsustainable ponzi scheme. Might've worked if we were willing to reign it in a bit (see EU), but we were too in love with the possibility of *MORE* to see where it was inevitably headed -- some billionaires buying it all and selling it for scraps, like a PE firm.

Say it. Scream it. Get it fucking tattooed on you for when your voice gets tired.

Unfortunately, he DOES know what he's doing An excellent explainer: When we need solidarity, sadly our strongest institutions are already capitulating (legal, universities)

This is a very sharp thread from Senator Murphy on how Trump's tariffs are a form of political coercion designed to impose authoritarian control over the economy. It's really on point, and another example of Murphy leading in new and interesting ways. I think the guy genuinely gets it.

With zero public outreach or notice, LA Metro removed a 3.3-mile protected bike lane from the North Hollywood BRT project design because it would have resulted in a 30% reduction of street parking. A *transit agency* prioritized a couple blocks of parking over the safety of its riders.
