How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.

Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.

Pure, mindless, barbarism.

It really takes a lot for me to say this, but the Graham tweet is genuinely a pretty offensive thing to say.
Despite seeing several people I totally trust say this was real I still felt I had to verify it with my own eyes. And having done so I still can't believe it's real.

Yeah they hate courage. That's why they love Trump. Because he's a pathetic coward.

The #MAGA crowd HATES courage, and the narcissist in chief hates being made fun of. I'm for both!

BREAKING: Chief Judge Boasberg denies the federal government's effort to vacate the TROs in the Alien Enemies Act case, finding that people the government claims are subject to the proclamation at least have a right to "individualized hearings to determine whether the Act applies to them at all."

Grateful for your years of service, Finn – and that the ACA helped you and your daughter get health care.
I was injured in the line of duty working as a sheriffs deputy and needed a spinal surgery. Had to accept a medical retirement at 40 yrs old. Lost my County health insurance for myself and my daughter. But no one would sell me insurance because of the injury. I had no insurance until the ACA.

The co-occupant of the Oval Office is a sexually abusing, business defrauding, draft dodging, convicted felon who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy.
He is a predator.
Not a president.

California would like to become the next province, so we can escape the hellscape as well.

Big ups to @signal.org @meredithmeredith.bsky.social for allowing usernames instead of phone numbers last year (signal.org/blog/phone-n...).

Washington basically runs on Signal right now and that one change has made reporting and whistleblowing way more private and secure.

BREAKING: A hearing is set for 1p tomorrow (Thursday) in a lawsuit filed Tuesday in federal court in Massachusetts by federal employee unions challenging OPM's "Fork" plan.

Today, they asked the court to issue a TRO staying the 2/6 deadline for Fork. Thursday's hearing will be over that request.

Our United Airlines pilot made sure to emphasize *Mexico* when he said we'd be flying over the Gulf of *Mexico* today.

It's the little things. Microdose hope.

Musk offered Wikipedia $1 billion if they removed the information about his alleged Nazi salute. When they refused, he countered with an offer: $1 billion if they changed their name to "Dickipedia." The man is truly unpredictable. Wikipedia, though a non-profit, stood firm and rejected both offers.
