Unique to America, our health care system is designed not to make people well, but to make CEOs & wealthy stockholders incredibly rich. The result: We have the highest infant mortality rate of any wealthy country on earth. How cruel, how immoral is that? We need Medicare for All.

Today, I stood with @lettercarriers.bsky.social Branch 283 and other postal unions to fight against USPS privatization. The USPS is vital to our communities—delivering medications, mail, and more, no matter where you live. We must protect it! #FightLikeHell #HellNo

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

I came of age in the 80s, a time when few women held elected office and queer people didn’t have many legal protections. I never imagined that I could legally marry my wife or have the opportunity to serve in Congress. Our community has made so many gains. We have to make sure we don’t lose them.

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ? It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone. If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Trump's lawyers are absolutely flailing in the courts right now
A screenshot of a text excerpt from a court proceeding, showing a conversation between Judge Reyes and Jason C. Lynch about an executive order that defines “sex” strictly as male or female. Judge Reyes challenges this definition, noting that there are roughly 30 different intersex variations and citing examples such as XXX chromosomes, androgen insensitivity, and five-alpha reductase deficiency. Judge Reyes emphasizes that not everyone fits neatly into an XX or XY pattern, concluding that the executive order’s premise—that there are only two sexes—is biologically incorrect.

I'm in Canada and in case anyone from the US is wondering what's in our Superbowl ads, I just watched one in which an ensemble of overly polite people decided they were tired of saying "sorry" and a man turned a blowtorch on a pile of snow while a beaver cheered him on. It was for Doritos, obviously

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment. I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face. And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

A historic Black church in D.C. that was vandalized by members of the extremist Proud Boys in 2020 has secured the group’s naming rights, allowing the institution to seek proceeds from sales of the organization’s merchandise and membership dues.

Black D.C. church vandalized by Proud Boys awarded control of group’s name
The ruling effectively prohibits Proud Boys chapters from legally using their own name or typical symbols without the permission of the Metropolitan AME Church.
