School vouchers are a scam to send taxpayer money to private religious schools. Vouchers are also a violation of church and state.

The right is trying to deploy its usual terror tactics against Texas Democrats and the state of Illinois. It won’t work. With millions of people’s voting rights on the line, the stakes couldn’t be higher. This is the type of bravery and fight we need from Democrats:

😡 The GOP is a death cult.

Mary Ellen Bute's abstract animation celebrates the parabola. She also set her elegant animations to classical music (prior to FANTASIA).

When I was studying costume design a professor with many decades of industry experience told us it’s great to have ideas but if you don’t put little red riding hood in a little red hood you’ll be out of a job. don’t be too afraid of cliché!

Abbott just issued arrest warrants for the Dems who fled the state. Rep Jasmine Crockett: unbothered. “You have a lot of intelligent attorneys that serve in the Texas House, and so they know there’s nothing he can do outside of the Texas jurisdiction.”

More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban. Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.”

In the face of a sweeping rise of Christian nationalism across government institutions, America is waking up. From theologians to everyday citizens, a broad coalition is pushing back against an authoritarian movement that seeks to enshrine a narrow religious ideology in law.

Good morning 🌞

Abby Phillip: “It’s a story about whether or not there is trustworthy economic data to be had under this administration.” @iampoliticsgirl4.bsky.social : “Not just economic data. Any data.” 🎯

Worrye not about 'being productive,' for thou art not a product. Thou art a star daunsinge yn a hopeful skye. A signal blinking across centuryes and worldes. Thou art a song performid just once and perfectlye.

You have to admit that the right wing capacity to commit violence is the reason why they're winning right now

ICE GOONS draw guns on humanitarian aid workers

Brother I wanna tell u my fav redneck anti-racism story. I was in NOLA for Katrina, 8 mo later I took a physician executive job close by for a big community Hospital on gulf coast of MS. The Emir of Qatar (father of current Emir), observing the devout Muslim requirement of charity, said… (THREAD)

"Ana" is carrying 2 buckets full of tomatoes - each weighing 24 lbs. She rushes to approach the line of workers waiting in 90° heat for their tomatoes to be dumped into the trailer. Once she get credit, Ana rushes back into the field to harvest more. #WeFeedYou

Y’all, this picture was taken in 1938. In 1938 the CEO to worker pay ratio was about 20:1. Today, it’s estimated to be 344:1.

i love Frenching (setting things on fire when the government tries 2 take away vacation days)

It has taken medical science 200 years to advance humans to the point where people are so healthy and living so long that they can deny that science and medicine is what got us here.

United Farm Workers President Teresa Romero - Two years ago, we invited all 100 senators to work in the fields. Only two of them accepted: Alex Padilla and Cory Booker.

People have succeeded in trashing TESLA's brand. A similar determined campaign can do the same to ICE.

Central Coast farm workers use their muscles, sharp knives and repetitive strenuous motions for the leek harvest. #WeFeedYou

Holy shit, they did it. They wrote the headline.

Normalize calling for the prosecution of ICE Agents.

Okay let me avoid my deadlines by making a thread of the recommendations you all made to this verbal hiccup I made this morning:

STEWART: “I feel like I’m watching something so self-evidently inhumane and horrific and to be told I have to shut up because I risk the Jewish state by speaking out? I would say the opposite — they’re putting the likelihood of a surviving Jewish state much more at risk.”

😂😭... *yes.*

WSJ just reported that nearly one in three single-family homes sold this year were bought by investors. These aren’t just the big institutional landlords, they’re small-scale cash buyers and syndicates scooping up homes that would otherwise go to families. A thread #econsky

Frank Zappa knew it

Senators Roger Wicker and Jack Reed, who lead the Armed Services Committee, haven't said a peep about this (or even respond to my request for comment). Congress is useless.

Here are some nice mushrooms

The former Attorney General of Israel, Michael Benyair is now calling Israel's actions in Gaza genocide. "To eternal shame. Jews, who suffered a genocide 80 years ago, are committing genocide in Gaza. Shame, rage, and sorrow"

Be the human you hope someone will be to you in your time of need...PERIOD!!! #ONEV1 #Pinks 🌸 #BlueSkyVets #Voices4Victory

Eight years ago today, John McCain saved millions from losing healthcare with one defiant vote. We need fewer cowards and more leaders with a spine.

The deployment of ICE, National Guard and Marines in LA—along with the prosecution of protesters—was never about public safety. It was manufactured propaganda, and now ICE is being exposed for it. Records show they lied in their testimonies and prosecutors are now facing “embarrassing” dismissals.

the most important part of hating communism is refusing to learn what it is

Russell Vought claimed on CNN this weekend that NIH funding is corrupt. As @juliametraux.bsky.social reported this February, his family has directly benefited from the NIH.

over 30 years ago, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated. I took a lot of heat for this speech. https://youtu.be/Bnd0eSuxu84?feature=shared

We want ICE out of our Hospitals.

Exactly. 1 of my stories that had a major impact had, at its core, data that had long been *publicly* available on the site of a Hollywood guild. I added up & analyzed the data in ways that made a lot of highranking people very uncomfortable & added interviews for context variety.com/2015/tv/news...

maybe there's still some good left in this world after all
