While others are writing memoirs and playing it safe, Justice Jackson is writing history—one fearless dissent at a time.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

If you grew up in a household with an evangelical right-wing parent, as I did, you already know that the dismantling of the U.S. Department of Education, like the reversal of Roe v. Wade, is the culmination of a 50-year project.

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

“He tried to kill his own Vice President. Do you think he cares about you?” -Barack Obama

When elected officials see mass protests and then immediately adjust their behavior in response, that is a good thing. That's how this should work! Celebrate Blumenthal for this. And then ask your own Dem senator what they're doing. And what Schumer is doing.

I think With Love, Meghan with Meghan Sussex is brilliant and is the first thing in years that has made my nervous system calm and made me want to host and be creative. It’s like a kindness bubble and I’m so grateful for it. Only adoration from here.

It’s your day…💋 #HappyValentines’sDay💞

This is Twilight Zone stuff....

National call this Sunday to strategize with Indivisible, MoveOn, WFP, and a ton of other groups. We choose to fight. www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

850 BILLION taxpayer dollars in the hands of a guy who has only had 50 employees? #Hegseth How stupid is this!🙄 Isn’t there a non-rapist MAGA with EXPERIENCE to be Secretary of DEFENSE Trump could love???

California should not have to kneel or earn the right for federal aid. All states should not have to jump through any hoops to receive disaster relief under the next administration. Not interested in paper towels tossed during disasters either.

Let's hope Attorney General Gardland has the backbone to release Jack Smith's report.

First they send your jobs away, close down your small towns, then they make education unaffordable, then they tell you it's all the immigrants fault, THEN they say you're too dumb to do immigrants job. We saw it happen, soon you will too. We're fighting back, we need you.🇺🇸 #MAGA

The older you get, the more you realize you have no desire for drama, conflict, and any kind of intensity. You just want a cozy home, a nice book and a person who knows how you drink your coffee or tea. Hoping your New Year brings your heart this peace, and enjoyment in life's simple moments.

. . . old music, food you loved as a child, grilled cheese, old movies on TV, simmer orange peels & cinnamon sticks, walks in nature, popcorn, cinnamon toast ... a dark room with Christmas lights, pics on the fridge of holidays past, dearest old ornaments. All will bring Tidings of Comfort & Joy. 🎄

Sweden's remarkably clean power grid. In November, this was its electricity generation mix: Hydro 38% Wind 31% Nuclear 28% Bioenergy 4% Zero coal or gas. - Ember data

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” - James Baldwin

*Now* we know why Gaetz resigned from Congress.

We were told that MAGA voted for Trump due to pocket book issues. Folks living paycheck to paycheck needing help to lower costs. 😢Seems like dysfunction and taking a sledge hammer to norms is Trumps only goal. No help for Americans just drama to get headlines.

Matt Gaetz. Matt Gaetz? MATT GAETZ FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL????

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive
