After Trump’s treatment of Ukraine’s President Zelensky, he has shown that he is not our friend or an ally of democracy.

Trump is not only a bully, but also a convicted felon and rapist.

He is not welcome in the UK and the absurd offer of a state visit should be rescinded.

Please sign and share..

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...
This is the most dangerous move yet

NEW: Apparently the Dept of Energy has replaced its Chief Information Officer with a "network engineer from SpaceX" who has maybe run a service desk but has no other IT leadership experience, per a source with knowledge.

The DOE, among other things, oversees all nuclear security. So that's cool.

If you're one of the 40 million people with student loans, Elon Musk’s team may have gotten access to your Social Security number, income data, and personal information.

I'm leading 18 senators in an investigation into DOGE’s actions at the Department of Education.

Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. 🔥

Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at “dangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrests—just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

“Women over 40 are invisible.”

That’s not entirely true. If we were totally invisible we would’ve already robbed you all blind, bought a deserted island, and be spending our days petting cats and casting spells.

Hardly new info, but BSky should know:

Warsaw's water quality is monitored by eight clams with magnets attached to their shells. If contamination in the water causes the clams to close, the magnets trigger an alarm and shut off the city's water supply.
Thank you, little guardian molluscs.

A federal court just blocked Elon Musk from interfering with the federal government’s payments system.

There is power in fighting back. We won’t let up until this block is permanent.

For Black History Month - which I'm imagining could be augmented by #BlackArtHistoryMonth - Archibald Motley's loving 1922 portrait of his grandmother at the National Gallery of Art in DC, with such tender & detailed attention to her hands resting delicately in her lap www.nga.gov/collection/a...

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.

To kick off Black History Month, one of my absolutely favorite works by artist Jacob Lawrence: Sidewalk Drawings, 1943, which underscores the complexity of Lawrence's singular vision in how it links the joy & exuberance of children drawing with difficult subject matter like war & violence

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.
