The cowboy didn’t save the town.
He burned it, looted it, and rode off crowned a hero.
The myth was never about saving anyone — just keeping the white man the hero, no matter how much burned behind him.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social lays it bare.

Imagine how vile and despicable of a human being you must be for the entire world to wish you were dead.

Friends. I’m conducting a survey for my master’s thesis at AU and would love your input. This 5-10 min anonymous survey explores how women make voting decisions and what influences them—media, relationships, policy, etc. Please share. TY!

🚨 NEW: We just launched a one-click email tool to contact all Democratic Senators who are still undecided on the CR.

Contact them and tell them to vote NO here ⬇️

Is it just me, or is AARP being suspiciously quiet? I get that they’re a business, but come on—this budget threatens Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. Where are the billboards? The bullhorns? The all-out social media blitz? Shouldn't they be speaking up? Am I missing something?
🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

The Democratic Senators below are wavering or leaning toward supporting the CR.

--> URGENT ACTION: Call your Senator asap, even if not on the list. Call Senator Chuck Schumer's office, telling him he must corral the Democrats to vote together and vote NO.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

Trump has canceled Biden's ethics rules. Critics call it the opposite of 'drain the swamp'
Donald Trump took office eight years ago pledging to “drain the swamp” of the dominance of Washington influence peddlers.

For @wpr.bsky.social, Margot Treadwell & I highlight 3 strategies Trump is using to erode independent media:

➡️ Chilling effects through vilification, barriers to access & lawsuits
➡️ Exploiting the media sector's economic vulnerabiities to exert control
➡️ Cultivating alternative information channels
Trump Is Using a Familiar Playbook to Erode U.S. Press Freedoms
The experiences of other backsliding democracies demonstrate the dangers facing U.S. media freedoms during his second term.

IMPORTANT!!
To America’s 2.3 million federal employees:

Don’t accept a buyout.

Neither Musk nor even Trump has the legal authority to make such an offer.

And even if they did, would you trust them to follow through on it?
