One person was dead and a Palm Springs, California, fertility clinic and several other buildings were damaged after a bomb exploded less than a mile from the city’s downtown on Saturday, the mayor said.

Excellent news!

It is Lenin's birthday today. This would be my birthday card to Lenin in my (almost) birthday suit with Karl Mark over my face in my first performance in NYC in 1980 at PS 122 when I was 21 called "Paint Yrself Red-Me & Mayakovsky. I should have worn cleaner JC Penney tighty-whities!

Happy Easter! Was trimming the pink jasmine on side of our house in L.A. and saw these two yellow ducks looking hopefully out our kitchen window. As Trump and his hideous fascist creatures try to destroy US, imagine the rebirth and resurrection of our democracy that we will make happen!

What a horror Trump has made US this Easter.

Bravo WISCONSIN for the epic defeat of MusKKK and Trump with Democrat Susan Crawford winning for Wisconsin Supreme Court. It wasn't even close!

We are barely even a country anymore under Trump's destruction of US.

I am reading/seeing @donaannmcadams.bsky.social amazing book of fotos and memoir this March, It is such a journey into how we remember and how we see. Get this book!

The good news is that there *are* people meeting the moment. youtu.be/EJxRtjma7lc

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

Free Mahmoud Khalil.

Good news

Leaders of the free world stand united in London The United States is not among them

Says it all.

I have never felt so ashamed to be an American as I did watching POS Trump and Vance, these two Russian agents, scream at the bravest man in the world Pres Zelensky Europe needs to understand the US is now an enemy of Democracy. The US is a shameful country. #TrumpIsANationalDisgrace #TrumpTraitor

A group of frustrated Yosemite National Park staffers hoping to draw attention to the federal government’s sweeping workforce cuts have hung an upside-down American flag thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan. The upside-down flag is a symbol of distress or a national threat.

This is what NYC does to fat, insane "Kings" with painted faces. F*** Burger King Trump and bravo to the Governor of Maine Janet Mills who stood up to the Bully.

The entire LGBTQ+ community should be furious right now as the National Park Service has bowed to the Trump Administration's erasure of #trans & #nonbinary folx. #Pride this year needs to fight back. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #Stonewell #NationalParkService #erasure #LGBTQIA

Elon Musk. The Un-Elected President of the United States.

Cowardice everywhere. And spinelessness is always in abundance at the National Endowment for the Arts. NO OBEDIENCE IN ADVANCE to TRUMP FASCISM. Maybe the NEA (an agency with whom I have - ahem- issues) will next give grants for most flattering portrait of POS Trump.

Un-elected President Musk, POS Trump and the RepubliKKKans are managing to destroy the nation and Constitution in just a few weeks. Endless wreckage ahead. "Trump's efforts to dismantle USAID leaves US workers in limbo and threatens billions of dollars the agency spends on American businesses?

Shame on NFL. Both teams have already lost the Super Bowl with this boot-licking of Trump's racism. blackpressusa.com/nfl-drops-en...

"Social media companies have poisoned our politics with their addictive hate algorithms, done unforgivable harm to our kids’ mental health, and fueled a war against our democratic institutions." Big Tech is not our friend. That and more advice for Dems from Tom Malinowski:

Donald Trump's threat to Gaza is genocidal. But the Western media has helped normalise it - just like they've normalised the depravity from day one. New post 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/trump-prop...

Resist! Resist! Resist!

The Dumbest of Trade Wars enacted by the Dumbest Administration for these Dumbest of Times.

Donald Trump is waging war on the American system of government.

Don't renew your Amazon Prime account. Shame on bootlicker Bezo$ www.thepinknews.com/2025/01/23/j...

What a vile, frightened little country Trump is making US. www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2025-01-26/more-dei-fallout-air-force-scraps-course-that-used-videos-of-tuskegee-airmen-female-wwii-pilots

Young voters in North Carolina were hit hard by Jefferson Griffin’s 60,000 ballot challenges. Among them: Rhiannon Camarillo, who is involved in voting-rights groups. “I took every step I could to mitigate the risk,” said the 21-year-old Duke student. #ncpol 9thstreetjournal.org/2025/01/21/n...

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

a bunch of posts about abortion pills vanished from Instagram. Meta put them back after we asked what was happening: www.nytimes.com/2025/01/23/t...

Bishop Budde speaking truth to Sociopath Trump has filled me with hope.

In a REpubliKKKan party of liars and bootlickers, this Episcopal Bishop speaks truth to Caligula, I mean the POS. The video is amazing, What empty and soulless creeps they all are. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/21/u...

Elon Adolf Musk reveals his true Nazi self. No wonder he licks Trump's tiny shoes.

What I am thinking of in DC today.

Holding our beloved California Republic close.

Alistair and I are back home in L.A. Flew the 10,000 miles from Australia to our wounded city. Ash from the nearby fires, a bougainvillea flower and a orange tree leaf fallen from the bone dry weather are at our front step of our undamaged home. Time to pitch in. #nuestraseñoralareinadelosangeles
