apnews.com/article/minn... Gov. Tim Walz: former House speaker and husband killed in politically motivated shooting

Had several conversations last year with good YT people that were afraid to vote too "progressively" in local or national elections in fear it would somehow affect their investments and 401k's. That argument did not/does not hold up and we're seeing why in real time.

Please read and share. But especially share with folks that might not realize how critical Section 504 is to so many people. I tried to write a simple clear explanation at the break. I hope it reaches some people who aren't already on our side. Gift link: www.startribune.com/why-are-repu...

Worked up a little sweat during half time. Much needed joy! #superbowl

@rosanita.bsky.social Haaaa!

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Welp. I've been laid off. I'm so proud of my work at HuffPost. But I want to give a special shout out to my Culture crew @tarynitup.bsky.social, @marinafang.bsky.social, Njera Jenkins and Erin Evans for holding us down. It's rare to be on a team with all women of color. We were amazing together.

Just look at this list. My, my, my...

🗳️✊🏾 Honoring the 15th Amendment & the Fight for Voting Rights ✊🏾🗳️ This victory was a step toward racial equality, declaring that voting rights could not be denied based on race, color, or previous condition of servitude. Despite this progress, the Black vote was suppressed for generations. #voting

I don't think prayer is a substitute for action, but it is powerful. We will gather on zoom at 11 am for just a few minutes in solidarity to pray for Michigan inmate Krystal Clark, who is undergoing major surgery as early as later this morning. Open to all people and beliefs. #freekrystalclark

Yes! Let's see more of this. Quit focusing on who is NOT doing XYZ and focus who IS!

You can not erase history. You can not erase us.

So proud of my 'baby' and happy she was acknowledged with the Youth Champion Award by our county's new sheriff, Alyshia Dyer, at her swearing-in ceremony. She has been my little helper this year through 3 political campaigns, GOTV work, and more. #Youth #civics

Music is one of my languages, but I don't speak Spotify or Pandora fluently. Tidal is my native music language. In other words... who's on Tidal? (And, yes I get weird/er when I'm sleepy)

buying twitter for 44 billion is a bad deal, but buying the US government for 44 billion is actually an amazing deal

Going LIVE tomorrow at Noon on Facebook. Hope to connect to Blue Sky LIVE soon. #AddMetoBlackSky

LUCILLE CLIFTON, everybody

Do you know how dark Twitter has to be for *STEPHEN KING* to say it’s too dark

The Blue Sky has opened up. When I first hopped on, I was bored. Now I have some friends on here, what we about to get in to? #goodtrouble

Telling people in oppressive geographies to "just move" is not organizing and it is not activism, but it *is* the political philosophy of people who misunderstand the value of community, and who devalue the incredible, decades-long work of American resistance movements.

I've missed y'all! Not that anyone actually prevented me from getting on here, just have been spread too thin. Blue Sky passes the vibe check, though, and I want to use it more. What's your favorite Blue Sky find in the past few months?👂 Any new art or works in progress? Anyone? Anyone? #imback
