Thou shalt NOT claim to care about 'government overreach' whilst setting up a government database on everyone in the entire country.

I’m old enough to remember when Secretary Hegseth tried to publicly mock Judge Reyes—suggesting that she didn’t know what she was doing when it comes to protecting our national security. It was … two days ago.

Good morning! 🌞 Morning Glory Muffins are on the menu in the Cheap Veggie kitchen. I made these plant-based by using flax eggs (1 tablespoon flax meal to 2 1/2 tablespoons of water) for each egg needed.

Children's Health Defense (CHD), founded by HHS Secretary RFK Jr, has created an imposter webpage that closely mimics a CDC webpage on Autism and Vaccines. It is nefariously seeding disinformation by presenting a seemingly balanced argument on the science supporting and refuting autism and vaccines.

This Republican congressman says he prefers virtual town halls because “Democrat” activists are “disrupting” in-person events—even though he hasn’t actually had one. Rep Hudson, this is a bullshit excuse. Your constituents are your constituents, no matter their party. Your job is to listen to them.

A lap full of friends.

Note to the media: You don’t have to cover the White House the way they want you to, ya know. You don’t have to regurgitate their propaganda, go to their press events, play by their rules, cover them like past White Houses that respected a free press and an independent media. So don’t.

HUGE NEW PIECE: New court documents confirm @wired.com & my reporting, @jeffstein.bsky.social credits my reporting in WaPo but, most importantly, new court documents reveal both comical lies and disturbing details confirming our constitutional crisis intensifies www.crisesnotes.com/bombshell-co...

The most corrupt regime in our nation’s history by a long shot.

Resist. Everything. Everywhere. All At Once.

Hey NYTimes — *now* you’re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of “Sauron: Avatar Of Evil… Or Extreme Uniter?” thumbsucker reporting you’re screaming what we’ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

Elon Musk belongs behind bars—along with these clowns. When the time comes, I’m backing a president who gives zero f*cks about “looking partisan.” Someone who’ll do what’s right, appoint an AG with a spine, and restore justice—no matter what it takes or how it looks.

Ooo this is a good one ☺️

'Cyclic sighing' can help breathe away anxiety - here’s and how. scopeblog.stanford.edu/2023/02/09/c...

SHAME ON @msnbc.com @cnn.com for not airing the Senate Democrats sounding the alarm on the illegal coup by Musk and Trump. You are failing this country!!! #Resist www.youtube.com/live/TAD0A4k...

These are the clowns Congress refuses to stop.

Health experts say they're flying "absolutely blind" as Trump pauses work by US health agencies: "The true impact is more people get sick"

This is what every damn senator should be doing. ASK YOUR SENATOR TO WORK FOR YOU. Democratic senator to block Trump nominees over US aid agency shutdown - www.reuters.com/world/us/dem...

This is a coup. Wake up America. Where are you, Congress?

This could fix everything.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

One of Trump’s first moves last week was to gut aviation safety.

These women didn’t sit down, stay quiet, or ask for permission—they broke the rules and changed the world. Role models. We should add Bishop Mariann Budde to the list.

Pete Buttigieg had excellent advice for Americans about how to deal with the chaos in November after his win, and it is important advice to follow now:

This is the Ben & Jerry’s video that has folks talking and MAGA losing their shit! We need to support @benandjerrys y’all, because we don’t ever want them to “stick to just the ice cream”. 👀

Want a great slogan for midterms? "If you FAFO and are struggling because of Trump policies, we understand. The Dems are here for you. Tell us how we can help you " You get the point. FAFO will be the theme. Be the solution.

This is becoming absurd—federal employees are now being told to remove pronouns from their email signatures. We will always stand by our commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, no matter how many things we’re asked to delete or change. Inclusivity is at the core of who we are.

Loved this lyric sung by Kurt Elling last night at Judson’s Live: “Your bliss and meaning wait for you to find them…”

Trump II has begun. Many people are asking: “What can I do now?” Here are 10 recommendations. Please let me know your thoughts, and if you have anything else you'd like to add to the list.

An attack on any one of us is an attack on all of us. You are loved. You are important. Please keep being you!

I’m laughing way too hard at this.
