Today is the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.
I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.
Remind you of anyone?

The systemic exploitation of women revealed here is a deep sickness. To the women in my life: I see you and I have your back. It is the responsibility of men to end this. We must raise the next generation to fight this.

A tweet from Representative Thomas Massie that reads: I just viewed 2 Top Secret FISA docs. 1) FISA Court opinion that raises serious concerns about FBI implementation of FISA 702. 2) letter by Senator Wyden describing a secret government interpretation of FISA law. The Constitution requires I vote No on FISA 702 reauthorization.
I sent a classified letter to House and Senate colleagues about a secret interpretation of surveillance law that every American should be concerned about.
Representative Massie is right. The Constitution requires EVERY member to vote against a clean reauthorization.
Money will be made by Iran, since your deal just allowed them to charge $2 million per ship to pass through—a fee that never existed prior to the war.
The gas crisis makes me really glad I live in NYC and not anywhere else in car dependent America. Hopefully everyone can learn from our example
Pre AI, so we know it really happened!
This morning I had the great pleasure of cracking open Heather Leah's new book. She explores the subject with verve and sensitivity. Her focus on *community* is just what we need today. THANK YOU, HEATHER! WELL DONE!

The Working Families Party launched a new website, PrimaryFetterman.com, that features pages dedicated to opposition research on him, volunteer recruitment and even a link to request donation refunds from his campaign — which the party said it will promote via digital ads.
TFG.
Wait, @maddow.bsky.social , how is this funny? The statement finally confirms the rumors that the new ballroom conceals a giant Presidential bunker.

Amazing how that stuff of our youth shapes us, and yet we grow into mature, complex humans, @jamellebouie.net I shocked a colleague when I told him I used to chill with the skaters & punks in school. Remain In Light was maybe my most impactful record. Joy Division & Midnight Oil also hit.
Dix Park Trolls! What a delightful experience! Six or seven thumbs up! Be sure to search for the "Thomas Dambo" map of Raleigh Trolls. (Link in first comment.)
I loved this song, @oliveklug.bsky.social . I found it on my FYP on TikTok, and shared it with my kid who is >40 years younger than my GenX self. He loved it too. So thank you!
A four day trial from a guy throwing a sandwich at an ICE thug!?
How is this not abuse of judicial process?!
He wants to kill Obamacare, but has no other plan. He is not satisfied with his deportation operation because his ICE agents are not abusive enough. He plans to continue murdering people in the Caribbean Sea because the law and these humans are of no concern to him. All this thanks to John Roberts.
I hate to say this, but the politics of the murderer/arsonist make no difference to Trump. The authoritarian ruler gains support with ANY kind of chaos and violence. It is ALL justification for further controls, more policing, and even military intervention.

Just cancelled my Disney+ subscription. Haven't watched in ages anyway. Less money for the minions of fascism.
I love this so much. (You simply MUST click through.)
Sen. Warren Daniel (R–NC, District 46) was caught trading stocks right on the Senate floor.
Didn’t even wait for a break. Playing the market on the taxpayers’ time…pure abuse of power.
Hear that?? That's the giant sucking sound of money leaving USA as Trump bludgeons our domestic wind industry, and China surges forward into a dominant position.
A 17 MW wind turbine is astonishing.

How do I get out of the part of BlueSky dominated by this soap opera called beebeetwentyseven ??? OMG, 3 out of 4 posts are about this tripe! Please someone help me! I'm muting posts as fast as I can. What else can I do?!
That's what I'm talkin about.
#SCOOP FROM AN ANONYMOUS INTERNAL SOURCE: Sunbelt Rentals is the only provider for HVAC and power equipment to Alligator Auschwitz, along with some moving equipment and the temporary structures. Sunbelt wants to keep it quiet, even internally--not many people in the company know about this.
Hilarious! Musk no like what Grok say, so he sending his AI to Stalin-style "re-education camp"!

#NoKings rally in tiny #PittsboroNC got me and 1,200 others #FiredUp yesterday! So encouraging to gather with so many neighbors who care deeply about the Constitution, liberty, rule-of-law, and Due Process. The Resistance is strong. We can't let the fascists get us down!
