One thing Tim doesn't have is a poker face, and while I've seen him wince and worse at progressives who share a panel with him, he is pretty much admiring Waj in THIS moment.

Totally agree. We have multiple candidates who have shown that it's possible to win without corporate or PAC money. The folks who take it and cater to those interests give disinterested voters validation to say, "They're all the same. Why should I vote?"

Vanessa was also on NPR today! I thought, "I know her! She and Heather had such a fantastic discussion!"

Remember when Trump threatened to wipe out a whole civilization? And then backed out of that and talked about forming a deal with Iran? And then dropped that and went to a UFC fight as negotiations fell apart? And then unveiled a triumphal arch and a photo of himself as Jesus?

That was this week.

I’ll have what Hungary’s having.

All this tells me that folks have been getting more cynical and distrusting with every year that passes, and yeah, that tracks.

A WHOLE CIVILIZATION WILL DIE TONIGHT My son needs lunch, and I have to put his backpack together, but a whole civilization will die tonight, so I'm wondering if they've closed their schools. Like, a snow day, maybe, except instead of snow it's "keep your children home so if you die, you die together" — instead of "well open back up once the plows have cleared" it's "we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow, hold your babies tight." It's just "talk" I'm told, which I've been told before. "It's how the president makes his deals." But I've never heard anyone talk about other human beings this way, and I'm not certain I can look my son in the eyes if we all agree to stomach it one more time. A civilization will die tonight, but as I zip up his backpack and kiss him off to school I think: if this is what we call leadership then I'm not entirely sure ours isn't already dead. @michaelfdubois Mukad A QuBoy @michacifdubois

Brutal.

It will probably be appealed, so we'll have to wait another year, probably, but there is a chance! And they may have to fund in the meantime, but I don't think so. :-(.

In honor of a judge halting Trump's ballroom construction today:

Trump Officials Accidentally Revealed The Truth About Immigration If job growth slows when immigration slows, what does that say about the story politicians have been telling for years? Justin Wolfers uses plain-English economics to answer that question—and to show…

My latest video essay: Listen closely and you'll hear it... The White House admits that immigrants aren't taking your job after all.

Okay, thanks. I'm passing it along.

Yes! And I wish we could count all the cars that honk their support. They count every bit as much.

They are not on the No Kings map, and I think there are TONS of locations that are not signed up and are not being counted. If you can estimate how many you saw, please contact the No Kings folks and let them know the total. I did that for the last one and they were very grateful.

Susie Wiles, Trump’s White House Chief of Staff, Has Breast Cancer

Breast cancer mortality dropped 58% from 1975 to 2019.

Localized, early detected breast cancer has a 99% 5 year survival rate.

Modern mammogram tech was developed by NASA for telescopes.

Last year, RFK Jr. cancelled 87 research grants on breast cancer.

A DOGE staffer assigned to the National Endowment for the Humanities to flag grants for "DEI" tries to explain what "DEI" is. This deposition is part of a lawsuit by the @acls1919.bsky.social, @historians.org and @modernlanguage.bsky.social.

The pattern of authoritarians using war for their own ends appears throughout history. War is used to redirect attention away from domestic scandals, political losses, and unpopular policies. It often creates an atmosphere where expanding state power can be framed as national defense

It is Tuesday, March 3rd or Wednesday, March 4th?

Q: "Do you think Trump should be deposed by this committee?"

HILLARY: "Absolutely. Trump has been held civilly liable for sexual assault by a jury of his peers. That is behavior that fits a pattern."

They should ALL be on FOX News and the others, and present legit positions, like he did. There is nothing that anyone can argue with that he said. And FOX viewers are given a picture of radical Dems. They need to see that that's not accurate.

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.

Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.

Beautiful and devastating all at once.

Awesome. Here is a song I wrote and wanted to share. I’m 48 and it’s my first song written wish I started young like these kids. youtu.be/wl6BX11WEYY

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

The Traveler & American Democracy with Rick Steves YouTube video by Rick Steves' Europe

Another wonderful talk from Rick Steves. Please share with conservative folks who don't think we're in trouble. www.youtube.com/watch?v=E20u...

It’s insane that the Trump admin wants to double the already massive US military budget in just 2 years when we are not at war. Trump’s DOD budgets are a cesspool of corruption and grift for the military industrial complex, scammers and grifters, including Donald Trump, Jr.

Dem candidates need to lead their crowds chanting: Money outta politics, profit outta healthcare! Money outta politics, profit outta healthcare! Simple, unifying message. You could even divide the crowd in half and have a call and response going on, starting with a hum, and raising to a shout!

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.

💯 Every. Fucking. Word.

They pulled an elderly Hmong man out of his home in the Twin Cities in -18° weather wearing only shorts. That’s sick. This administration is dismantling civil rights, ignoring due process, and turning cruelty into policy. This isn’t law and order. It’s state-sanctioned abuse.
