Nothing strikes fear into ICE like a twerking T-Rex and unicorn in Portland.

Happy Sockober Knitsky!

I stared these beauties a while ago. It's hard to knit this color combo at nite...therefore a slow go for me.

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit.

While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall.

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!!

This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.

It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.

Former President Obama brings his calm and steady leadership style to us once again to remind us of our power:

“It is up to all of us to fix this. It's not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen—who says, no, that's not right.”

Stephen Colbert on #Signalgate. Summing up what happened, and why it matters. And why the people responsible would have known not to use Signal for matters relating to defence and security. Sometimes comedy is more informative than the news.
