They’re not acting like they’re in a four-year term. They’re acting like they’re in an everlasting dictatorship. Are we all clear on this?

A federal agency quoting scripture over a photo of armored police isn’t “patriotism.” It’s a textbook violation of the separation of church and state. The government has no business wrapping law enforcement in religion.

It's increasingly clear that the president lives in a constructed bubble of unreality designed by aides who are manipulating him in order to take control of US policy. Seems like an important story - wish media would cover it.

Oh look, another White House Signal scandal. This time it was an aide to Stephen Miller who was using Signal so openly in a public space that a bystander captured images of the chat. Oh and the messages were about sending the *82nd Airborne* into Portland. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.

Every trustee or regent or governor on every higher education board needs to read this.

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: This statement is a clear example of what is known as “State Terrorism”: When the dictatorship will order all instruments of its state security & intelligence apparatus against its own citizens to terrorize the population.

Keep showing the world what is happening here

If you're seeing ICE recruitment commercials on TNT during #AEWCollision, here's the feedback form. Tell the networks to say NO to ICE during our AEW shows! Fuck ICE. Fuck Fascism. tntdrama.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/req...

Hurting their own

Sometimes I think about how from 1935-1975ish, Bell Labs produced an insane amount of revolutionary science and technology, including 11 Nobel Prizes, the transistor, UNIX, C, the laser, the solar cell, information theory, etc. The secret? Provide scientists with ample, steady, no-strings funding.

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

Spot on.

My god, Mike Johnson is such a spineless, weak little man. Adelita Grijalva is not only not sworn in, but she can't hire staff and is locked out of her office. Are there any adults with a backbone still working in DC? #inners

Breaking on MSNBC: An FBI agent in the Washington field office has been fired for refusing to arrest and perp walk James Comey. This news was first reported by Reuters.

Watch the military NDAA fight closely. There’s a lot of anti-trans provisions in the NDAA and I’m watching it for hints on what an eventual funding deal for fy26 might look like. How much will Dems push back on the bathroom ban, tricare ban, and more?

I still can’t wrap my head around this—mayors of American cities are holding meetings, not about natural disasters or crime waves, but about how to shield their own citizens from the President of the United States. And somehow, we’re supposed to act like this is normal. It’s not. It’s madness.

NEW: ICE is planning to hire a team of nearly 30 people to surveil social media 24/7, build dossiers on people, and flag them for arrest and deportation. @dell.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-so...

Holy hell. DHS just openly stated that its agents use “reasonable suspicion” to make ARRESTS. This is blatantly unconstitutional. The Supreme Court is clear that you need probable cause to arrest someone, as opposed to stop them to ask them a question or two. This is huge b/c…

Say, has Plastic Gavin Newsom signed any of these bills now 7 days later? Seems like it would be an easy get for someone who's such a big trans ally 🤨

My calico kitty

Violation of the Hatch Act - another thing no one will hold them accountable for

The Department of Energy has now banned the following words and phrases: climate change, green, decarbonization, energy transition, clean energy, emissions, sustainability, tax breaks, carbon footprint. This is dystopian and should terrify anyone paying attention.

This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours. Johnson is abandoning his job to instead protect a convicted child sex predator

Anytime, anywhere you hear anyone say that democrats have shut down the government, kindly correct them. The republicans shut down the government. The republicans shut down the government. The republicans shut down the government.

This is extortion. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/u...

Last December, Senate Dems had no anti trans provisions in their NDAA and the house did. Many thought the Senate Dems would stop those provisions. They didn’t. Last minute, 37 Dems voted for it. We must take no chances with the appropriations fight. My story from last December.

Swear her in.

I cannot emphasize enough that this administration shouldn’t get 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦 from the Dems until they start obeying the law. Not. One. Optics matter: if you want people to turn out next election despite troops in the streets, then show them it matters. Do your goddamn jobs and hold the line.

Truth

Lawrence: One of the examples you've put out is in Speaker Mike Johnson's Louisiana district, a 60 year old couple earning 82,000 a year. Their health care premiums will rise by almost $20,000 by 300% because of what their congressman is doing.

I'm not a political genius, but I'm pretty sure the party that published a 600-page manifesto on how they want to shut down the federal government are the ones who shut down the federal government.

Covid isn’t over. Masks. Clean air and stay home when sick if you can. NYT article about doubled risk of long covid in kids after second infection linked www.nytimes.com/2025/09/30/h...

"Don't wait until we're dead to care about us. The best time to show up for us was years ago, but the second best time is right now." please. while we're still here. be allies--not just passive observers watching our destruction like we never even mattered.

It's not too late to start masking again It's not too late to start cleaning the air It's not too late to prioritize your long term health and the health of your community It's not too late to show solidarity with disabled and vulnerable people Disability... a minority group you can join anytime

👇🏽😳

This shouldn't even be a partisan issue. This is a national security emergency. The response should be all hands on deck from every branch of government and every single check and balance option in history should be being desperately pored over. Anything else is an abdication of duty.

If the govt shuts down, I could lose work. If it stays open at the cost of gender-affirming care, I could lose my child. I can replace lost income. I can't replace my daughter. @gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social, don't sacrifice trans people on the altar of political convenience.

So only cis white hetero men are wanted in our US military and they are free to step on as many other ppl as they want including force against civilians? Got it. Civil war right…

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

much as i'm not shocked, it is *unbelievable* to me universities are banning talk of ... me. myself. my existence. what the hell, folks.

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

@whipkclark.bsky.social @repauchincloss.bsky.social @warren.senate.gov @repmcgovern.bsky.social @edmarkey.bsky.social @pressley.house.gov please stand up for trans people. We support your fight for human rights and safety
