Remember when a president inspired his followers to ransack the US Capitol to overturn an election and no one in his party would defend it or be seen near him for a while and then the people who did it were convicted of felonies? And then we decided as a nation to reelect that guy?

Remember when Roe was settled law? Remember when birthright citizenship was just an unquestioned feature of the 14th amendment? Remember when states and localities regulated guns all the time because of course the 2nd amendment wasn’t about individual self-defense?

I’ve seen this person get retweeted by MAGA influencers like Benny Johnson. He’s not kidding. This is a real political goal he is pursuing. He has 425,000 followers on Facebook.

The trump administration and the tech oligarch Epstein class are the greatest threat to Americans' free speech rights in our nation's history

…and shows up for other Democrats by traveling the country to raise money, even coming to California to help with Prop 50. This is what good Democrats should do. I would proudly vote for Jasmine Crockett if I could.

She fights in real time, not weeks later after the consultants finish their memos. And Crockett backs it up with the work. She serves on Oversight and Judiciary, backs major bills on voting rights, reproductive freedom, gun safety, and police accountability…

I want to remind folks of something that’s still raw for me. After the 2024 loss, most Dems in Congress went quiet. You remember the silence. It was deafening. Jasmine Crockett did the opposite. She stepped up early, got loud, and was never afraid to take on Trump. @jasmineforus.bsky.social 🧵

Texas voter here. 💯% agree with every point Chris made. 👇🏽 My vote is going to Jasmine Crockett for TX Senate. 🗳️ 🚨Early voting begins Tue, 2/17 Texas Primary March 3 Make your voting plan. #TeamJasmine @crockett.house.gov

GODDAMN FUCKING RIGHT

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

We are all going to die, and live in darkness for a thousand years

Oh, that’s gonna stick

My immigrant Norwegian and Austrian grandparents fled their respective countries to live in the freedom on this country. They served in this country by manufacturing weapons and sailing “Liberty Ships”. They contributed to be a part of this nation.

My English-Scots-Irish ancestors didn't die for multiculturalism; they killed for it. Killed Confederates who said shit exactly like this.

Lincoln 1851 "I am not a Know-Nothing. As a nation, we began by declaring "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes." When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and catholics."

This forgotten case can stop Trump's plot to steal elections

If my math is right, the current force is 10X the normal amount And what’s a “security force”? This is Minneapolis, not Baghdad

Trump AGAIN lied on TRUTH SOCIAL when he said, "We are now the only Country in the World that uses Mail-In Voting because of massive fraud all over the place." In fact: 34 countries or territories allow mail-in voting & unlike many, U.S. tracks ballots throughout the voting process to reduce fraud.

AOC speaking in Berlin on Bad Bunny's performance at the Halftime show: "Just putting those values on television, felt counter cultural rebellious resistant, and that I think speaks so much to the moment that we are in that it was defiant."

Susan B. Anthony was born #OTD in 1820. She dedicated her life to women's #suffrage, and campaigned for the abolition of slavery, women's property rights, and more: susanbanthonyhouse.org/her-story/bi...#OTD#suffrageActive until she died in 1906. She never got to vote in her lifetime (well, legally that is).

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem held a press conference in Arizona to rally support for the suppressive SAVE America Act. The event came hours after a report on Noem’s chaotic tenure at DHS highlighted her sole focus on publicity despite objections from White House officials.

As of yet, there is no evidence of them actually drawing down or ending their occupation of Minneapolis-St. Paul😡

IN THIS HOUSE WE APPRECIATE A GOOD BURN

Her: (playing with my hair bizarrely, dubious of its intended purpose, purring softly) What are you thinking about right now? Me: Well, do I need a little more of pomegranate molasses for the grenadine, or is it just sweet enough? How do I work the etymology of: “pomegranate” in my presentation?

The Dow is 30 companies. And equivalent indexes around the world have risen far more than the Dow during the past year by percentages. bsky.app/profile/atru...

A girl on TikTok put out a video calling the 911 operator in Bakersfield a weird ass bitch for having attitude all the time...the comments are FILLED with locals, paramedics, a cop and even her coworker all agreeing she's terrible at her job and they hate her. 😭

Obama: "The rogue behavior of agents of the federal government is deeply concerning and dangerous ... the sort of behavior that we've seen in authoritarian countries and we've seen in dictatorships, but we have not seen in America."

15 February 1944 | A Polish woman Natalia Hiszpańska (b. 1904) perished in the Auschwitz camp hospital. She was an architect, a scout leader and a second lieutenant. She was engaged in resistance activities during the war. In the camp from 25 August 1943. No. 55813.

📌Barack Obama was a damn fine president, yes, but he is an even a better man. He still believes in all the good, while the abhorrent, racist monster currently in our WH dines off of all the bad. The difference is stark. Who you vote for doesn't build character, but it damn sure reveals it ...

Given DOGE’s f#ckery at SSA, I am not thrilled that the “SAVE America Act” aims to compel states to purge voters via SSA’s Number Verification system & DHS’s SAVE program, which accesses the SSA system. I wish some election security experts would look at this & talk me down.

SEXT (but, sugar, you are no stranger to me)

A reminder: This is what the WH said after his arrest and even after knowing what his daughter was going through. “Heartless” doesn’t begin to describe them.

i hate these people. so much.

AI drones used in Gaza are now surveilling American cities… And corporate media isn’t covering it. www.donotpanic.news/p/the-ai-dro...

Ofelia Torres, the teenage Chicago Public Schools student whose fight against cancer while her father was detained by ICE came to represent the federal government's overreach during Operation Midway Blitz, has died. Brave young woman. I will never forget her. RIP.

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.

Brave girl.

What a great photo of Brazilian alpine skier Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, the first South American to ever win a medal at the Winter Olympic Games.

Both twitter accounts at work here are paid for by taxpayers

Kristi Noem: "When it gets to Election Day, we've been proactive to make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country."

A thread, with lots of data, about how Trump-Vance-Miller have not only lost the big argument about ICE they've also lost it about mass deportation. The country wants DHS to deport criminals and leave the rest of us alone 👇

The SS couldn’t have done it better. Disgusting

This is just so many levels of nonsense that I don‘t know where to begin. An observation, though: grounding our identity in 1492 makes us look a hell of a lot worse than grounding it in 1619.

The Rubio speech really is appalling, and if you haven’t read it yet, you should. www.state.gov/releases/off...

Poll taxes are unconstitutional. Any i.d. that is required to vote has to be provided by the government. This is a way to disenfranchise the poor. Call your senators.

“In a separate exchange with Democratic Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey, Carl also said, “One of my weaknesses … is sometimes I take an idea too far. I made some comments … about minimizing the effects of the Holocaust that were absolutely wrong.”” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

cancelling associates of sex trafficking pedophiles is woke

The U.S. Department of Defense has barred military personnel from enrolling in courses at many of the nation’s top universities, including Harvard, Yale, MIT, and Johns Hopkins. A leaked email is said to contain the full list of affected schools. Shared by MeidasTouch.
