Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Brought one of my dogs along on a short holiday. He did great! First time on a long road trip, and lots of new sights and activity. A well trained dog is delightful.

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.

According to Trump and MAGA: Steve Witkoff - hero and patriot. Mark Kelly - traitor who should be executed.

Things that I Am For versus Against Part 1: ✅️I am For adopting dogs from shelters/rescues ❌️I am Against the military blowing up boats in the Carribean without investigation, proof of cause, and without the approval of Congress.

MAGA supports Trump, and not America's Constitution. The rich support Trump because he bribed them with tax cuts and other incentives. MAGA treated our presidential election like a reality show and cheer on immature and stupid AI videos posted by what used to be our most esteemed gov. agencies. #FDT

Republicans are literally N-atzees and the far right media is STILL trying to disparage Liberals..like, having blue hair, snarking at an intern, taxing the rich, or old tweets about being a "commie" is something to Clutch Pearls about. LOL. Buh bye MAGA ##nokings

I'm attending No Kings's event, “NO KINGS Lancaster, CA” - Second location in the AV! Stand up for Democracy

Same. #AlsoTiredOfWaitingForTheEPSTEIN_Files

I just signed an executive order declaring Donald J. Trump a simpleminded bore, a menace to free speech and democracy, and The Worst—By Far—President in History.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

The common good is a set of shared commitments. To the rule of law. To democracy. To tolerance. To equal opportunity. To upholding the truth. We cannot have a functioning society without these shared commitments.

Nothing says, "Hey international companies, bring your manufacturing to the US" like arresting 475 workers at a Hyundai (70% of whom are South Korean).

The problem isn't high prices. The problem is low wages, income inequality, stock buybacks, excessive executive bonus packages and anti-union tactics deployed by greedy corporations. Corporations can afford to pay higher salaries and benefits. They choose not to.

Protect Marriage for Everyone No one in America has a constitutional right to be married. If the Federal Gov. Is allowed to prevent Some people from marrying, they can prevent all of us.

What happens when it all falls apart?

A ballroom you will never dance in. A private jet you will never fly in. A paved over rose garden you will never be received on. A crypto coin you will never get rich off of An international hotel and golf course you will never step foot in.

America: We don't trust career politicians. We need One of US 5o hold the most respected office. * Proceeds to vote in a pedophile, convicted fraudster and SX abuser, the worlds most high profile Racist old codger with whiny baby syndrome who often shits himself. America: That's Our Daddy

Americans will never experience widespread prosperity until corporations are no longer able to exploit labor through low wages. We need a mandatory federal minimum wage.

Make it. Protect it. Pass it on.

Nope. Not in my lifetime.

ICE is making the LAPD look like the Care Bears.

In 2007, Hillary Clinton proposed a savings bond program for children. The US gov would fund a "$5,000 baby bond" program. This program would give every child born in the US a $5,000 government-controlled savings account to help pay for future expended. She said it first.

Anyone from Bend Oregon? I'm taking a trip, have limited time, and want a guaranteed inner tube experience. I'm looking for recs! Thanks @bendoregon.bsky.social #bend #bendoregon

NEW: Trump is set to accept a $400 million ultra-luxury Boeing 747-8 jet from the royal family of Qatar, with the gift expected to be announced next week during his first foreign trip of his second term, ABC News reports. A few weeks ago, the Trump Org signed a deal to build a golf resort in Qatar.

@indivisibleav.bsky.social I just found this account, I haven't seen any posts about protesting or taking part in the multiple nationwide anti-Trump protests. Am I missing a communication channel?

Places I'm shopping instead of #boycotttarget and #boycottwalmart - Local grocery store for food and some household items 💐Stater Brothers, Aldi - Costco - the bigger the better! - CVS for the toiletries and personal care items that I used to buy at Walmart Good luck and resist!

Issa Rae Cancels Kennedy Center Appearance After Trump’s Takeover www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/a... This is how we beat the regime ✊ #buildtheresistance #antitrumpalliance

I welcome government reform and a reduction in Federal expenditures. However, Trump and DOGE are (at best) executing this very poorly. The USA must give notice to people and organizations before revoking funding. Slash and burn tactics lack foresight and credibility. DOGE doesn't care about people.

Trump spending $852,000 per round trip flight to deport immigrants using military resources, meanwhile egg prices are nearly $11 for an 18 pack and he rescinded federal funding of school meals, food stamps, and WIC. How does this positively affect Americans?

@maddow.msnbc.com Thank you for an eye opening show tonight. You shed more light on the Trunk Admin agenda and it is terrifying. Be safe

Has anyone heard of Curtis Yarvin? JD Vance is using this degenerate's fantasy playbook to dismantle the US government and install a dictatorship. He wants to delete the gov, and install a dictatorship. Vance explicitly mentioned this guy's writings as source material for his ideals. #stoptrump

#wagegap the following Government Orgs publish statistics on the Wage Gap: the difference in pay between Men and Women:

This year we are cancelling Valentine's Day and instead donating that money to Planned Parenthood, in support of healthcare and reproductive services for women and girls. The average US consumer spends $185 on Vday (in 2022, Americans spent $23.9 billion.) 💖

Who would you rather be alone in the room with? 1) A Trump Appointee 2) A Rescued Pitbull
