The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE. This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s

McBride: Look, people are clutching their pearls at this guy yelling something at the president. They are more offended by a worker standing up to the president and calling him out for his hypocrisy than they are by the president trying to cover up for a human trafficking ring

Yep 😬

Game day 🦅

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia. Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.” Really listen to it.

The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred. It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

Treating myself today, because “gesturing wildly”. #teacher #selfcare

Honestly, the rest of the world is watching to see how we Americans deal with a fascist takeover of our government and whether we resist tyranny when it's standing on our lawn breaking down our door and killing our fellow citizens in the streets. What did Hamilton write about tyranny?

I wish we had been taught how to fight a tyrannical government back in civics class.

Last night sunset in Minnesota after losing one of its own. Her last name says it all …. RIP Renee Nicole Good. #Photography #Photographer #BlueSkyArt #EastCoastKin #Sunset #Minnesota

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”

Need to try this 😋💕

Absolutely essential

“What do we call it when a stronger person decides to rob a weaker person because he can? It is just gangsterism. We are the most dangerous gangsters in the world today. Not in the sense of being charming rogues or alluring antiheroes. We are the bad guys.”

NEW: A mass propaganda event is about to engulf the US news cycle and what, if anything, survives it will be a lesson for our times. But it’s what the rest of the world does now that’s key. When someone tells you who they are, believe them. broligarchy.substack.com/p/the-threat...

We are failing our kids

May we rage when we must and rest when we can. May we build the peace we so desperately need. May we turn our hands, in all things, to the justice that peace requires. The only liberation is a shared liberation. May we have courage sufficient to build it. Shabbat shalom ❤️

0 (zero) children in the USA have died from swallowing the toy surprise inside a Kinder Egg yet in 1997 they were banned for sale because the toy might pose a choking death. 45-50,000 children/teens have died in the USA from gun violence since 2000. The GOP refuse to ban guns.

I wish we would restrict them here

Good morning ☕️🌄 #snow #IndianLake #NYE

Earlier this year CNN ran an interview with a pastor claiming women should lose the right to vote. We said, OH NO! “The idea that women should surrender their vote to male authority is an affront to every American who has fought, marched & bled for the right to be heard.” bit.ly/3MO5SxD

Time to strengthen New Year resolves: Immigration policies should promote the reunification of immediate families, meet economic, business & employment needs, and be responsive to those facing political or humanitarian crises. @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvva.bsky.social

We are optimists. We have to be. It took 72 years of grit to win the vote in 1920. We've got more work to do empowering voters. We're convinced we can get it done defending democracy. History proves that persistence pays off. Bring on the new year. @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvva.bsky.social

Happy Holidays from Philly Filly and Hubs! 🎄❤️ 2025 has been a challenging year for me in many ways. And so it’s fitting that in this last month of the year, I not only forget to stream (Shortbread Bites) BUT, IN ADDITION, I’m unable to get together a video of my Spaetzles…

Yes, please😋💕
