I made a promise to Alex’s parents to continue to tell his story. An ICU nurse at the VA, an outdoorsman, a deeply generous, compassionate friend and family member, and a true son of Minnesota. Rest in peace, Alex.

I agree 💯 and have been saying this for months. It's time to stop debating the fascists and to start using language to pressure change. This playbook shows how we can do just that to force the fascists to back down: americanmanifesto.news/fighting-fas…

Political party affiliation has ZERO to do with a persons pedophile proclivities. If you raped underage girls, or knew about it, then you should pay the price.

If we’re going to talk about fentanyl every day, let’s learn to pronounce it. (Hint: it’s not “fen-tuh-nahl “

“Uncovering fraud and waste” is a ludicrous statement. The $$savings from all those salaries when all those people were fired does not add up to any kind of discovery.

I agree, it’s repulsive. Also a very slippery slope. Neurodivergence is a divergence, not flaws. Are we going to be asking doctors to violate confidentiality and submit lists? To what end? After we’re done with people on the spectrum, are we going to catalog people in other ways?

The Gila Cliff Dwellings. A national monument in the Gila National Forest. The volunteers that keep it clean and are so informative were fantastic. #1 on my hierarchy of outrages: the possible loss of our public lands. #nps

On Passover, we tie the oppression of our people to the struggles of all people. Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a US legal resident, has a family here, a judge ordered he not be sent to El Salvador, was deported in error, and SCOTUS has ordered him returned. None of us is free until all are free. 🕯️

They had to negotiate and pay El Salvador to get them to do this. That door is now closed? They’re not trying.

Agreed. They gladly fired 1000s of people without even knowing what they did at their jobs. Major screwup: fire him now.

The biggest problem is the first sentence: “I have determined…”. Using what metric? The “You were mean to me” yardstick? Guess we’re finding out our checks and balances are not enough. Of course, nobody ever thought someone like Trump would actually be elected.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

So the weather forecast will now be “chance of rain” or “kinda sunny” based on somebody looking out a window? Oh and lemme guess: Elon has a forecasting program we can buy.

Our parks are in chaos. We’ve seen firsthand how Trump’s hiring freeze, the rescinding of hundreds of job offers, and the layoff of 5% of NPS staff have left us overwhelmed and short-handed.

Trump attending the Super Bowl should be a non issue. Lots of other people are going too. But it’s headline news what the players say. STOP POLITICIZING FOOTBALL FFS

I know a Russian man, we see each other for a few minutes occasionally. Yesterday I finally asked him what he thinks of Putin. “IDIOT! INSANE!” He went on to say that there was never “Russians n Ukrainians”. “ We are all brothers”.

Everyone he knows must have been able to submit their pet peeves and he’s promised them an EO. In no order of priority.
