I just made a quick donation to Planned Parenthood in her memory. As a poor college kid in a small central Texas town in the 80’s PP was there for me. I’m a mom by choice for choice.

"At the core of the 'masculinity crisis' nonsense is a taught desperation in millions of males in this country who get violently angry at the claim that doing all the things the brosphere tells them to do might not be effective in attracting women."

People around the world should stop patronizing American companies, buying American products.

McDonalds, Pepsi, Coke, Amazon, eBay, etc.

Is there a non-US Google alternative? Gmail alternative?

The world needs lists of alternatives.

Democrats should go to the state of the union speech. Very time Trump lies, they should up small placard saying “Lie” and every time he mentions Ukraine or Russia, they should hold up a placard with Zelensky’s face on it.

So once Democrats are back in control and we start to fix things domestically and in world affairs, we pretty much a sure bet they’ll give that Democratic President a Noble Prize.

This!!! This!!!
Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Pam Bondi comes across as an SNL skit. I don’t know if I should laugh or cry.

Democrats should as themselves “What would Mitch McConnell do?” Good advice.
Trump and the GOP are counting on Democrats to play by the old rules while they bulldoze democracy. But the real power of the Senate isn’t just in votes — it’s in procedural warfare: indivisible.org/resource/how...

Stephen Miller’s approach to governance and Elon Musk’s attempts to destroy the federal government is like a virus. By the time a cure or vaccine is developed, the host, our democracy, as we know it will have died. Justice moves too slow to shut this down.

Hey. Here are the names of the unauthorized dudes who are creeping into government computers:

The engineers are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran.

These are the DOGE boys.

Just called my US Senator Fled Cruz. I left a message sharing my concerns about what E Musk is doing. I don’t know what traumatized me more, having to listen to Fled’s voice or actually say E Musk’s name out loud. Call your Senator!! We have to stop Musk’s data raid on government employees.

Democrats need this type of energy and truth telling.
Velázquez: Donald Trump did not care a bit about safer communities when he released those who were convicted of beating the shit out of police officers. So, don’t come to us and talk about security and safer communities when you do that

The amount of lies spewed by Hegseth and republicans at this hearing is so frustratingly sad. We deserve so much better than what we have right now.

Maybe news media can just play one if MLK’s speeches on Jan 20 instead of airing the inauguration speech.

Trump’s approach to politics is that of an immoral businessman. If he wants the assets of another company, he does a hostile takeover ie Greenland. He doesn’t understand alliances or nation friendships. He has no friends, just resources to be used. He’s unwell.

I didn’t storm the capital today in protest. What did you do today?

My candidate lost the election. Today the results of the election were certified. You know what did today? I went to work. I didn’t attack the proceedings, or take weapons into the capital, I didn’t attack the Capital Police, and I didn’t scream it was a stolen election.

THIS. When I asked for Dem leadership to acknowledge what went wrong and come up with a plan to fix it, THIS is what I was looking for. Kudos to @benwikler.bsky.social for laying it out, and thanks to @marcelias.bsky.social for the interview!
