Some of y’all have never had a #warcoffee and it shows.
Morning from Kyiv.
I had a slow #warcoffee
and read the news (nothing good is there).

Today is International Women’s Day.
I am sending my solidarity hugs to every woman who sees this message.
We can do more than we think.

"The primary reason I'm really leaning in on this Antifascist Book Club thing is that your ability to go on offense against fascism depends entirely on your bonds within your local community."

Every queer person I know lives in fear of being assaulted because of who they are. Don’t hold hands or show affection in public. Don’t talk about your same-sex partner to strangers. Always be vigilant. In 2019 I was attacked by a man in a hotel lobby because I’m gay. It’s not getting better.

Our elected officials care more about TikTok than gun violence.

I wish the media spent half as long on the fact that Donald Trump pardoned Charles Kushner only to appoint him an ambassador as they did bashing President Biden for the Hunter pardon.

It’s been reported that Mika and Joe were "concerned” about facing “harassment from the incoming Trump Administration.” Which truly reveals the level of their cowardice—abandoning us and what we thought were their principles, in order to save themselves.

If Elon Musk is serious about "government efficiency," there is only one place to start: THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

About half of the federal discretionary budget — the spending that Congress approves each year — is spent on defense

And the DoD just failed its audit FOR THE SEVENTH YEAR IN A ROW
The first task for Musk's Department of Government Efficiency
President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Elon Musk and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy to head the Department of Government Efficency.

He should post his phone number so the rest of us can call and congratulate him on his flawless lickspittery
Joe Scarborough claimed on Morning Joe this morning that he was "flooded with phone calls from people all day, literally around the world, very positive, very supportive" about the trip he and Mika took to Mar-a-Lago to meet with Trump

One thing I hope we can do as Bluesky gets larger is be less tolerant of the resistance grifters who will try to hack the platform for engagement and growth without any interest in adding anything substantive or meaningful

It’s a different kind of troll.

Lots of stories about how mass deportations will spike food prices and cause inflation. But as Tom Bonier noted, only one published before Election Day...

Why am I not surprised… 🙄 for MONTHS John Berman Burns has trashed Trump on Morning Joe, and now he is cozying up to a man he’s repeatedly called a fascist dictator, a racist, and a sexual predator. Dude is spineless. #morningjoe #msnbc #trump
