After years in DC with necrotic non-voting House representation, weird to be represented by the House Dem who's immediately on top of everything www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nOB...

shout out to all the moderate Dems who redirected focus toward peaceful student protestors and activists while all this was happening in public view. you have the survival instincts of a grain of sand.

Trump is now paying these people with your money.

thank you

hey septa what the actual fuck

Kevin Gonzalez has died just hours after reuniting with his parents, NBC Chicago/Telemundo Chicago reports: www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/c...

i think anyone who runs into christine flowers should just tell her they’re on the way to get an abortion and keep it moving.

We are watching the worst assault on multiracial democracy since the Pettus bridge. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/06/u...

I am really glad we have el cars that break down twice in one day but we continue to spend enough money to have three different transit cops harass a guy for doing the lean. great priorities.

You know what would be really fucking transformative in 2026? Electing statehouses in Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania that will join the Interstate Popular Vote Compact, and designate their EC to the outright winner of the popular vote. That’s a better use of resources than navel gazing at 2028

no offense to all the other dogs out there but i love my dog the most

donate to an abortion fund.

all of the stations should be wheelchair accessible stations and until they are, septa should be free to disabled people.

it’s really inappropriate that SCOTUS didn’t disclose their status as a cancer.

whoever ruined actblue, fuck you

"The firing squad is very physical and visceral... They like it because it’s the same kind of video game brutality that they like in every other context of this administration’s barbarism."

i got a letter today that basically told me that i am officially getting my wheelchair and medicaid is going to pay for 100% of it. wild.

one thing i am going to consistently do is end a zoom call in the wrong timing/rhythm of the conversation because i never learned how to interact with humans properly.

seems like a really good reason to organize and bargain this

i don’t have enough time to research this but strongly suspect the flu shot move from Hegseth is purely because they don’t want to pay for it, and people are about to find out how disastrous that is.

Democrats should make the confirmation hearing on the nominee to be U.S. Attorney General all about the Epstein files. If you won’t commit to release the files without redactions and prosecute the Epstein class, then you’re obstructing justice, not enforcing it.

House Judiciary Dems will soon launch an investigation on this. Stay tuned.

how original

My heart is with their kids.

the SEPTA PA system sounds like a dalek

I'm fed up of seeing drivers texting or reading from a phone ***while driving*** (and it's also unacceptable if you're stopped in traffic). If you are driving, it's very simple: you are in charge of a 1+ ton killing machine, so don't touch your phone. Ever. No, not even "insert excuse here".

Hungarians showing how to win big in an unfair election: organize AND protest AND vote AND demand profound change.

ICE agents shot another driver -- on Tues. He had just asked to call his wife. They shot him six times. One bullet his jaw. Now he can't speak and has been mostly unconscious. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/09/u...

i think he should swim across the strait of hormuz

who is going to stop it, senator?

The President just threatened genocide. The Joint Chiefs of Staff must disregard any such military orders that violate federal and international law. Republicans in Congress can't hide anymore: we must consider all options – including impeachment – to stop Trump.

Bill tweeting about March Madness this morning

President threatens the eradication of 90 million people, and America's opposition party is just not getting it. Complete loss of words for the way our elected officials on both sides of the aisle are approaching These Times.

The brief is strong; all evidence indicates that the decision to reopen the case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia occurred AFTER the Supreme Court's decision, and with the direct involvement of senior administration officials. If this fails, though, the evidence against him seems hard to overcome.

Raphael Lemkin spent years and years working to conceptualize and define genocide and have that idea made part of international law. His work makes it clear beyond any reasonable doubt that Trump is threatening genocide here.

pretty clear bright line today, anyone in power who isn't doing everything they can to remove him from office deserves handcuffs when this is all over. that includes any democrat who votes for anything he wants

call for an investigation into the president's fitness. call for the house to impeach. say you will obstruct every last bit of senate business. call for soldiers to disregard illegal orders. say you will prosecute the people who do this. say you will take their military pensions and benefits.

Stan Woodward, the Trump DOJ's No. 3 figure, wrote the legal brief defending the case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia against vindictive prosecution claims. That in itself, Abrego's team says, is evidence of vindictive prosecution. #AlwaysReadtheFootnotes Background buff.ly/C6Tkv0C

Nuremberg was an important symbol of German nationhood so I say with 100% sincerity that this is a job for Philadelphia

Completely unstable and perilous. The House must bring up impeachment articles, and the Senate needs to remove a president who wants to commit war crimes. We cannot sit idly by as Donald Trump threatens to end an entire civilization.

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

the great dane i watch has a voice that sounds like alan rickman

it would be delightful if dudes on scooters didn’t plow through the wheelchair gates for the el like they’re a fun toy and not a critical accessibility feature.

do you all know how many times in the last week someone has been smoking crack in close proximity to me on the el? and guess how many cops have been present and if they noticed on their own. we have drug consumption sites. it’s SEPTA. anyone who opposes SCS simply is pro people dying.
