People are wrong to say that we have no heroes left. Just as they have always been, they are all around us, choosing to do the right thing, no matter what. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Today, as we celebrate this Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, let us be moved by the full measure of Dr. King’s words. Because today, the feel good portions will get quoted by those who no longer even pretend to act right. Let’s remember, “Do Right” time is Now!

yes. this is one of the major weaknesses of an administration helmed by an indifferent and doddering old man and run by vicious ideologues. they are totally unresponsive to public conditions. also a sign that they are isolated from those republicans who are worried about elections

One point I’ve been banging on about in interviews the last few weeks is that the mere threat of the use of force by the U.S. President is illegal both under Article 2(4) of the UN Charter but also the U.S. Constitution by virtue of the Take Care Clause.

"Americans, not foreigners, are bearing almost the entire cost of US tariffs, according to new research that contradicts a key claim by Trump... The new research suggests the impact of tariffs is likely to show up over time in the form of higher US consumer prices..." www.wsj.com/economy/trad...

“Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.” ― Martin Luther King Jr. #MLK

KKKaroline 🔥🇺🇸 claims Trump has secured "nearly $9 trillion" in investment to the US. The $9.6 trillion total includes projects that were announced during the Biden administration, such as parts of the $16 billion investment from Global Foundries. www.cbsnews.com/news/fact-ch...

Hmm...there's something odd about everyone in this image...

Good boy! You win the prize for being the most unabashedly corrupt POTUS in history!

This is how it’s done! @abigailspanberger.com’s first act as Governor of Virginia is to repeal Glenn Youngkin’s executive order that mandated state and local law enforcement cooperate with ICE. More of this please! #LetFreedomRing

When will Oversight Republicans hold Pam Bondi in contempt of Congress for not releasing the Epstein files? This is pure corruption and an effort to protect pedophiles.

Don’t give up.

My last two shots before my world went dark.

We are now 30 days beyond the statutory deadline for the full release of the Epstein files

Recapping the week in polls: Identification with the Republican Party approaches a new low since 2008, and a majority of Americans say Trump has the wrong priorities and does not care about people like them. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/americans-...

When will they learn? If they obey, they’ll be on his good side. Until they aren’t.

Right? Everyone knows how scary Minnesotans and Danes are!

Nick Fuentes, Andrew Tate, Sneako, and Clavicular were all in a night club in Miami singing and dancing to the Kanye song "Heil Hitler" which they requested be played.

Tim Moore (R-NC) needs to be voted out for introducing H.R. 7114: ...to authorize awards for the arrest or conviction of individuals that deliberately target law enforcement officials with acts of violence or intimidation, ***and for other purposes.*** Cosponsors: 🧵 @govtrack.us

Have I mentioned how much I hate the way this administration operates? Not one day passes without them overtly lying and/or violating the Constitution.

Even Germany's far-right AfD party knows it's crazy. #Greenland

Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder. " Federal courts in Alabama are using a law last applied during the U.S. internment [incarceration] of people of Japanese descent during World War II to charge immigrants who don’t register themselves..." www.al.com/news/2026/01...

This seems important

Did your Democratic US representative vote for HR 7006? You may want to reach out to them. It includes: 1. Abortion Restrictions 2. $3.3B to Israel As It Perpetuates Genocide 3. Crush Palestinian Autonomy 4. No Accountability for Lack of Healthcare How many of them have primary challengers? 🧵1/2

You'll never guess who lied constantly in 2025. Yes, yes you will.

Unsurprisingly, immigrants commit serious crimes at a lower rate than your average white US citizen.

I like this guy. We need more like him.

It's not just you. It was a mistake and we have to fix it. Now.

People paying attention?

Call your Republican representatives and ask them. @5calls.org

I listen to Robert Hubbell' Substack daily.

Love this. Good example for other cities. Can states do this?

🧵 Americans don’t want Greenland — but they think Trump might try anyway.

Huh? "I don’t like the man as a human being. I don’t like his brashness. I don’t like his roughness. I don’t like how he types out his texts all capital as if he’s yelling at everybody. But what I approve of is what he is doing to try and get the country on track...”
