I Fully Endorse this Idea….

Don't forget: my old Yale Law classmate Clarence Thomas refused to recuse from Jan. 6 cases despite his wife's involvement in the plot. And he's taken at least 100 gifts worth over $2 million while serving, including from GOP donor Harlan Crow. He's a disgrace to the Court.

I guess he'll understand when Americans make a different 'unpopular" decision for the good of the whole country, & not just for a few privileged grifters.

As with many things, people need to tell people. Can't rely solely on any system or app or media. It will take all of us.

Long post explaining the behind the scenes chatter that lo & behold is political.

Protests in TN & LA. Getting your district wiped out means losing your voice. I have celiac sprue, it means I can't eat most of the food everyone else eats. If you do the food prep & cooking, it's likely I will get sick & will lose 5 days to pain each time. That's 1 vote, silenced. It matters.

Words matter. When journalists adopt propaganda slogans & jargon, it means they are no longer independent. We are far down the slippery slope of losing independent thought, especially in mainstream media. We need less canned, less staged, less scripted access to news and persons.

Just listen to Bianco bicker & insult. That's what he brings to any office, his hatred & belligerence. It was a cat fight, not a debate.

It's a made up war to extract 💰 and possibly oil, etc. Iran didn't start this -- but bigotry & hatred are fueled anyway. It's all wrong, on so many fronts. Corruption in leadership is so corrosive.

NEW: Tennessee voters came out to oppose the GOP’s new rigged maps 🔥

ICE concentration camps are deadly. Already in 2026, 18 people have died in detention — roughly 1 person every week. They need to be shut down. Instead, the GOP is trying to give ICE and Border Patrol up to $70 billion more.

Of course Senator Louise Lucas is a threat to Trump's fascism. She's an unapologetic Black woman with a history of success for working people. It's no wonder Trump targets her. This is how fascists function. They can't win by the rules, so they change the rules to attack & eliminate their opponents.

It's a horrible thought what large proportions of our taxes are paying for killing, weapons, incarceration, detention centers and finally to end our democracy

Time to spill the beans.

Misuse of our FBI & DOJ. Blue states are being targeted with lawsuits and sting operations in another attempt to interrupt how this election year rolls out.

Time to stop baseless retaliation using the DOJ & FBI by the WH. Being angry or disagreeing is insufficient evidence of criminality. We've seen citizens shot & killed. We know illegal enforcement actions lead to excessive zeal, to ignoring the law. Where are we then?

SCOTUS Time Machine 🕰️

So many people urge us to vote if we are dissatisfied with our democracy. And yes voting matters. But as today’s Supreme Court ruling tells us, it’s not that simple. Not everyone who should have the right to vote can exercise that right.

Jeffries says everything is on the table legislatively to deal with the Supreme Court: In the new Congress, we’re going to have to do something about this Supreme Court, and let me be very clear: everything is on the table.

Get the Word out for May Day 2026 · Indivisible

After the corrupt US supreme court dessicated the voting rights act, the main players dined with the fake US president last night. How fucked is that?

BREAKING: Mills ends her Senate run—Graham Platner the presumptive Dem nominee. Platner’s platform is nearly identical to Mamdani’s platform—and polling has Platner up 10 points against Susan Collins. In MAINE! Dems will win every seat when we prioritize WORKING PEOPLE over corporate interests.

TOMORROW: Americans are calling out of work, walking out of school, and refusing to shop on the nationwide day of economic disruption. There are many ways you can get involved on May Day: survey.alchemer.com/s3/8705046/i... Join one of the over 3,000 events planned: www.mobilize.us/mayday/map/?...

In the 24 hours since the Supreme Court's majority ruled to demolish the Voting Rights Act's remaining protections, Louisiana and Tennessee have already signaled that they'll redraw their congressional maps with the clear effect of shutting Black voters out.

Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social : “This is an attack on Black political power. To take away our representation.”

When the cartoon replaces all the words ...

🚨BREAKING: Louisiana officials made clear Thursday that the state’s primaries will be postponed so lawmakers can draw a new congressional map in response to Wednesday’s Supreme Court ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

"Why is it controversial to step in when someone’s getting bullied and try to stop it?” —Billie Eilish Kudos to Billie for speaking out and for standing up to the bullies. We could use a lot more of that these days.

A win! The House voted to strip pro-pesticide provisions from the farm bill in a 280-142 vote.

You can cut me off—but you cannot silence us! Even as the Supreme Court has dealt a devastating blow to the Voting Rights Act—we will continue to organize, mobilize, and push forward—just as generations have before us!

🚨BREAKING: A new lawsuit is challenging Louisiana’s decision to suspend congressional primaries already underway — arguing the state is illegally nullifying votes and plunging an active election into chaos following the Supreme Court’s gutting of the VRA. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Anything to hold on to power apparently.

I was reminded this morning of something IBM noted in 1978: "A computer can never be held accountable. Therefore, a computer must never make a management decision."

Accountability - make it apply regardless of wealth, regardless of power. End the billionaires club.

There it is. Any questions?

How is this being treated as normal? A Republican governor is declaring a state of emergency to cancel n ongoing election for Congress. If you think this is ends with redistricting, you are not paying attention.

Palantir employees are talking about company's "descent into fascism" www.wired.com/story/palant...

Criminals doing criminal things, and not even being subtle about their criminal behavior. In a functioning government, not run by criminals, there would be an investigation and efforts to stop these open collusion.

It's almost as if none of them are taking this seriously either.

Congratulations! You've unearthed a solid case for universal healthcare.

Not so healthy these days, hijacked by 🍊 while he extorts 💰💰💰💰

To be clear, the orange felon is a lifelong fraudster and pathological lying trashy con artist, so I’ll never believe a single word he says or anything that occurs in which he is a part of or anything that his cult orchestrates to promote him in a better light.

Worth remembering…

Anyway. I’m glad nobody was hurt and I’m sure the journalists who attended the WHCD will not center themselves and their personal experiences and instead remain focused on holding the powerful accountable and informing the people about their government.

Note that there's been no threat to sue over this statement. I know I would be suing for tens of millions if I was innocent.

Am I understanding this correctly? The President, the Vice-President, the Speaker of the House AND the Secretary of Stare were all at the White House Correspondent's Dinner together and security was so laxed that a guy ran through security with a long gun? I call bullshit.

When billionaires take control of vital communication platforms, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy. And when those billionaires justify their business motives by citing “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability. Don't be fooled.
