Renaming “President’s Day” after the incumbent President has to rank among the dumbest things that the MAGA cult has ever proposed for America.
And that’s saying alot.
Washington is spinning in his grave.
Alot.
Aloha 🙃🎂🇺🇸

Here's hoping you didn't spend your President's Day like Deadpool. Hunting undead commanders-in-chief is tough work.

Personally, I'm going to be celebrating #WashingtonsBirthday, not "presidents" day.
Like we used to do.
Who is the best Commander-in-Chief?
For #PresidentsDay (really #WashingtonsBirthday), here's episode 1 of #JAWBone's 41-part series on every dead President as Commander-in-Chief. We even devised an elite formula to rank them!

In honor of Presidents Day, Citrus College will be closed on Friday 2/13 & Monday 2/16. Office hours will resume on Tuesday 2/17 (Flex Day). #PresidentsDay #LincolnsBirthday #WashingtonsBirthday
FYI: The spring 2026 semester starts on Wednesday 2/18. See you soon, Owls! 🦉
#LincolnsBirthday and
#WashingtonsBirthday were national holidays until the passage of the #MondayHolidaysAct which instituted #PresidentsDay...
Presidents’ Day shouldn't be. Very few who have sat in the Oval are deserving of honor, and certainly the guy sitting there now is completely unworthy...

Can we finally give George Washington a big budget movie for his birthday?
Listen to @herberthistory.bsky.social and me discuss the stunning absence of such a film and produce/cast our own version.

Since 1968, 3rd Monday in February is a federal holiday known as
George Washington's Birthday
not #PresidentsDay &
not ever actually his birthday (Julian or Gregorian #calendar)
#WashingtonsBirthday #History
Today we celebrate and honor the Presidents that have led our country in the past, present and into the future. #WashingtonsBirthday, #LincolnsBirthday #PresidentsDay
While most people know today as President's Day, the official name of the holiday is actually Washington's Birthday.
Stop the propaganda.
It's #WashingtonsBirthday
