We live in a country where the two most dynamic, charismatic, eloquent politicians of this century have the first names Barack and Zohran. This is what bothers the white supremacists so much.

In a time when the White House is being used as a weapon against the very idea of America - dismantling democracy, wrecking the world economy, treating cruelty as a virtue …

THIS is the counter-movement. Children laughing. Leaders who actually listen.

Donald and his cronies can’t stand this 😂

This is your daily reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.

I’m sure Trump has put the US in a very strong bargaining position by issuing two ultimatums with hard deadlines only to back down both times after Iran called his bluff.

4-D chess from the cult leader.

Song on the radio was interrupted by the emergency alert system blast. As it played time slowed and I waited for the regular "This was just a test..." message to play.

Well, no message played. It went back to the song. So I flipped stations and everything else was normal.

Hate this timeline.

Stupid, stupid, stupid

This regime is so stupid

How can anyone put up with the insanity, the lies, the constant drama, the disrespect, and the downright corruption

Strike, strike, strike!

Make the economy hurt from boycotting every tech company, every media company, etc

#MayDayStrike

release the epstein files

I made someone's day.

I told the grocery clerk that he's dying. That made her happy and she said the whole world would celebrate. We laughed and bonded.

I try to spread cheer in these trying times.

Daily Reminder: Release th Epstein Files👇🏻

Reports indicate Elon Musk controls a secretive network of over 90 companies and entities so he can hide how he spends his money.

No wonder he wanted the Trump admin to “look into” the Corporate Transparency Act, which would have regulated those companies.

Starting February 18, 2027, smartphones and many portable devices sold in the EU must have batteries that users can remove and replace more easily. That means #Apple #Samsung #Google #Xiaomi etc may need to redesign future devices to meet the new rules www.business-standard.com/technology/t...

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has signed an executive order banning state employees from using insider info to bet on prediction market apps like Kalshi and Polymarket, warning the unregulated boom “opens the door to insider trading and abuse.”

Happy National Library Week! 💙📚

I'm binge watching "The West Wing," and reminiscing about the days when there was common sense and common decency in the White House.

This Data Center Is Getting a $77 Million Tax Break to Create One Job No other project in the country has gotten such a large subsidy to create so few jobs, according to watchdogs.

A New Jersey data center will reportedly receive $77 million in tax breaks — while only creating one permanent job.

One job, in exchange for higher utility bills, noise pollution, and potential groundwater pollution.

Is it any wonder communities are organizing to stop data centers?

So jealous of you Illinois folks today. Outlawing book bans is a hell of a step forward.

another afternoon where it's impossible to post videos (or post at all?) on Bluesky. at some point you would hope this problem would be addressed

The Justice Dept’s theory of the case— that the group that single-handedly disassembled the Ku Klux Klan defrauded its donors by concealing that it was using paid informant to do that work and more— has about as much merit as the now-dismissed charges against Jim Comey.

134 years ago this cartoon was drawn, and in 134 years the problem has only gotten worse.

A draft dodger is arresting war veterans for protesting his illegal war with Iran. Remember in November.

Imagine a California where families and workers don't just survive, they flourish. That’s the roadmap. 

Better schools, housing that’s affordable, cleaner air, and a health care system that sees you as a human being first.

Let’s make it happen.

"This is an important thing to think about."

No… Tucker,

you are not welcome, forgiven, excused, or given the benefit of the doubt.

You laughed on TV while children suffered and you did it for years, because the money was good.

You can rot.

After France, Denmark is moving too: its Digitalisation Ministry plans to phase out Microsoft, switching to Linux and LibreOffice in the coming months. The goal is clear—reduce dependence on a handful of global tech giants and strengthen digital sovereignty.

Imagine how great America could be if wealthy pedophiles were prosecuted for their crimes and Americans were at a place where women could win the Presidential vote.

In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.

249 years later, we have this idiot.

Mayor Mamdani and a group of children hold hands while running through red tape in a hallway.

For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.

We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.
