If only Hillary Clinton had the circumspection to construct a blanket fort around her home computer…

Pantone’s “color” of the year, described as a “refuge of visual cleanliness.”

🚨BREAKING: In a sweeping victory for voters, a Utah court struck down the GOP-controlled legislature’s congressional gerrymander and a companion law designed to entrench partisan power — restoring a fair map for the 2026 elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Grocery prices HIGHER under Trump. (Reality is even worse than graphic given corporations are temporarily eating tariff costs).

70% of working age SNAP recipients work full time. The companies should pay them a living wage! SNAP is corporate welfare.

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families? Now you know.

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

CW: protester being struck in the head by a pepper ball Footage I took earlier of the moment Reverend David Black, a regular protester outside of the Broadview Detention Center, was shot in the head with a pepper ball by ICE agents on the roof of the facility.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

The perfect encapsulation of Politico. "Of course the White House is lying, but it's a pretty savvy lie, so let's see how it plays?" It's all a fun little game with no stakes to them. It's like they're recapping episodes of Real Housewives.

Can we agree baseball isn’t all about analytics? Chemistry and team spirit used to matter. Mets season is an example of percentages and payrolls not = wins. Keep a player like David Robertson who wanted more than anything to stay w/ the Mets. Keep Iglesias. Butto. Low cost, big heart. #lgm #metssky

ICYMI: @ktnguyenauthor.bsky.social, author of You Know What You Did, talks w @evalangston.bsky.social & @hollyrizzutopal.bsky.social about being the child of immigrants, OCD, and her time as a magazine editor.

A lie gets half-way around the block, while the truth is putting its shoes on. But its shoes are on and I’m going to tell the truth.

Susan Rice on Pete Hegseth attacking DEI while betraying his own incompetence: "If you're a white, Christian, cisgender, macho MAGA man, you can be as dumb as a rock and be deemed qualified to serve as Secretary of Defense. That's apparently what we've learned from this episode."

Workers are not asking to get rich. They just want to afford three meals a day. In the richest country in the history of the world, no one should work for starvation wages. It is time to raise the disgraceful $7.25/hr federal minimum wage to a living wage of AT LEAST $17/hr.

SWEEEP! Happy Easter #metsfans #mets #7linearmy

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

meanwhile, prominent pundits continue to deny that there the administration adheres to a segregationist ideology

Top 5 ways to celebrate “Liberation Day”: 1. Remove shoe. Sh00t self in foot. 2. Google “tariff”. Summarily ignore definition. 3. Poop in neighbor’s yard. 4. Designate organ to exchange for a pint of maple syrup. 4. Put wallet in Vitamix. Purée for 15 secs. #liberationday #tariff #trumptax

Early Voting is underway in Florida's First and Sixth Districts. Let's flip these seats to help shift the balance of power in the U.S. House of Representatives where we can then stop trump/musk’s power grab. Early voting ends March 29. So, Go VOTE, Florida! #MomSky

This you @usatoday.com?

🚨 CBS News has received an internal NSA bulletin from Feb 2025 warning staff NOT to use Signal app for sensitive info, citing vulnerabilities to Russian hackers. These docs were sent pre-Houthi chat scandal with Jeffrey Goldberg.

New York Times full front-page coverage of Hillary's emails THEN vs Trump Administration's Signal-gate NOW.

Stop using “DEI.” That’s not what any of this is about. Journalists insisting on adopting the preferred terminology of the propagandists is a big fucking problem. Stop it.
