I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.

Just a heads up that the DOGE caucus has put up a tip line. It would be real terrible if what happened to the ICE tipline happened to this...

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

The homepage of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s website was updated Friday night to display a “Page not found” error message. This change occurred just one day after members of Musk’s team gained access to the bureau’s headquarters and computer systems.

Welcome to the resistance! Over 1 million brave souls have answered the call this week. The Empire—Trump’s administration and Musk—may believe its grip is unbreakable, but every day, more join our ranks. We’ve always known—tomorrow, there will be more of us.

Look I’m just saying “how are you?” is a really aggressive way to begin a conversation, like I’m sorry but we just don’t have the time

The CFPB was dismantled over the weekend, with all activities suspended, its funding reduced to zero, and its headquarters temporarily closed—removing a crucial layer of oversight for consumer-facing financial companies. Staff members ordered to cease all ‘supervision and examination activities.

Not sure what to say to your senators? 👇 Find your reps' numbers at 5calls.org or www.commoncause.org/find-your-re...
At a meeting today with staffers for Senators Markey and Warren, the staffers made two concrete asks:

1. Please call or email and share your stories about how the current administration’s actions are hurting or will hurt you personally. The Senators can use these human stories to persuade those /1

Two personal favorites I keep thinking about were the Obama-era "The IRS is targeting right-wing orgs" scandal (which was fake, and anyway the federal bureaucracy is now the president's personal political retribution squad) and "Bill Clinton met Loretta Lynch on the tarmac" (wow such abuse of power)
what we have learned in just these two last weeks is that there is not a single solitary scandal republicans have harped upon in the last two decades that they genuinely cared about. they pretended to care to make political hay. when it’s their side doing it, everything is a-okay by them.
But her emails?

Wrote about the absolute scandal that is the CIA passing names of ALL hires from the past two years in an unclassified email as demanded by the White House.

It looks like they did so because they (again) misunderstood "diversity"

Incredible to think how hard Merrick Garland worked for four years to avoid even the remotest appearance of partisanship or ideological commitments, and literally on her first day as AG Pam Bondi is like "Diversity is now illegal, we will be putting all the libs in prison"
Breaking from me and @mjsdc.bsky.social : Newly installed AG Pam Bondi sent out more than a dozen memos in a 15 minute period on Wednesday. One of them told staffers to come up with "proposals for criminal investigations" of large companies that have DEIA initiatives. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Sharing this from Rt. Rev. Jonathan H. Folts, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of South Dakota.

“One of our own priests was targeted at his home—so let no one say, ‘it can’t happen here.’ It can. It has. It is. And rest assured, we will not remain silent or passive in responding.”

My heart aches.

Bishop Budde told Time she's received death threats since her sermon asking Trump to show mercy to LGBTQ children & undocumented migrants (time.com/7209222/bish...). That's sadly not surprising given animosity against her by Trumpian pastors & pundits (publicwitness.wordandway.org/p/brave-serm...)

What I think is important to do is draw a contrast between the types of stories Teen Vogue is covering, and the way they cover them, and what our legacy media outlets are doing. And then ask the question: Why does Teen Vogue have the ability (maybe courage) to regularly do what other outlets won't?
hi! @teenvogue.bsky.social has been a reliable outlet for strong political journalism since at min 2016 — which was *9* years ago!

you don't need to be surprised each time you're impressed by our work! (maybe other outlets would respect us more if you didn't!)
