It can be a Day of Gratitude to this country being a place that welcomed our ancestors - except for the ones brought here against their wills, of course. A day of gratitude for all the contributions immigrants have made growing this place. How do we seed this idea around?

My daily reminder - which I humbly request you share - that if you can compensate even the littlest bit for our psychopathic bully of a president, here's where to do it:

Donate to Ukraine’s defenders
The National Bank of Ukraine has decided to open a special fundraising account to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Via Jeff Tiedrich: "by the way, the email address to which all federal employees have been ordered to respond is hr@opm.gov. it would be very wrong if millions of people around the world abused that inbox by flooding it with nonsense — so please don’t do this."

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.
EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Good on them, and Christ, that they have to say it…
BREAKING: France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Spain & UK sign a joint statement vowing to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty & demanding a role in the peace talks.
This is leadership.
It’s also unprecedented.
A western alliance is having to form against a new, twin & united threat: Trump & Putin.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.
This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him.
This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.

Good idea. We are indeed a nation of immigrants:
I have an idea and I'd sure like to make it fly: how about on Inauguration Day, this January 20th, everyone who believes in this nation of Immigrants donate to whatever organization you know of that helps immigrants' legal rights.

BlueSky is trying to monetize so let's show them some numbers:
Reskeet this if you refuse to pay for BlueSky+ until trust & safety decides to prioritize marginalized users.
That's $96 / year of lost revenue for each reskeet...
