He hates the military. We are just props.

This is impoundment, this is unconstitutional

Good news on a Monday morning.

This is horrifying! Family members of some of the people sent to do hard labor in a Salvadoran prison by Trump confirm their loved ones weren't members of a gang. One woman said her brother got a tattoo of a rose in Dallas, and because of that they accused him of being a gang member.

A very good follow in these vexing times ⬇️

I can’t help but feel compassion for these people. Even these people.

My God.

We’ve seen this before, but it was a long time ago. It should be resisted by all means, especially judicially.

This would be unbelievable if it wasn’t so thoroughly researched, vetted, and reported. This is consequential journalism.

We naturally try to make sense of senseless violence and potential hate-crimes. Sam Nordquist was tortured and murdered by evil incarnate. As a trans man, Sam was hated and vilified by half of the political establishment, who also have his blood on their hands. #JusticeForSamNordquist 🏳️‍⚧️

I have never not rolled my eyes when I’ve seen one IRL.

JUST IN: A federal judge in Washington state, who blocked Trump's executive order re: transgender health care, says it is unconstitutional in multiple ways, including usurping Congress' power of the purse storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Prioritizing DEI is an essential part of building a better, more equal society, and most Americans vocally support these efforts. Companies that cater to outlandish pressure campaigns and reduce their commitments should know customers are taking notes 📝 https://buff.ly/40NaFmc

Relatable.

I need to stay the hell off Twitter.

The Internet Archive has to date downloaded 500 terabytes of US government websites, which it crawls at the end of every presidential term. The whole archive is fully searchable. This effort's housed by a donation-funded nonprofit, not a branch of the US government. blog.archive.org/2024/05/08/e...

The year is 2025. You have one chance to fill out a government form correctly and receive the approval you need. You fill out the form correctly and submit it. No one works at the agency anymore. Better luck next time.

A while back I asked folks why they’re joining Bluesky and the most common response I saw was, “I just want a good place to get my news” and, yall, no. Bad. GET YOUR NEWS FROM THE NEWS PBS Newshour is FREE FOR EVERYONE. youtu.be/PMOYN8JWdUk?...

The safest place to be this morning is at home - if you can be. Otherwise, be aware of what's open and closed! #JaxWX

Thank you so much to the attendees, staff, and sponsors of the 38th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Breakfast today. Whether it was the moving performances, the Tomorrow's Leaders winners, or the thoughtful speeches, it was hard to leave without an "audacious faith in the future."

Over two thousand people just jumped to their feet to cheer for mayor @donnadeegan.bsky.social, who gave one of the greatest speeches I’ve seen in person. It was a real homage to the life and example of Dr. King as we collectively ponder our “audacious faith in the future.” #ilovejax

Thank you Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Anthony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, and all the Biden-Harris Administration staffers who pulled this off before they leave. Fuck you to every republican and a special fuck you to everyone who didn't vote. The biggest of fuck you's to the protesters.

Slow, deep breaths. We’re in for a rough go.

It’s a kakistocracy.

BREAKING: Jimmy Carter has died at 100. The 39th president of the United States, who served from 1977 to 1981, was perhaps more famous for the life he led after leaving office — as an advocate for peace and human rights. Read about his lasting legacy.

God bless and keep Jimmy Carter, the best of us. He’s gone home to Glory. And he’s earned his rest for sure.
