Great framing in her response.

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump:

"Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

Spain's leader with a message that should be adopted by every top Democrat

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

-Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

Yup.

The American people rightly do not want a war with Iran.

President Trump’s war is not smart, it is not legal, it is not morally right, and it is not in our national interest.

Fuck you too in no particular order:

1. Podbros
2. Democratic Consultants
3. Uncommitted
4. DSA
5. White Nationalists
6. White adjacent folks
7. The whole Congressional membership that pushed out Biden
8. All members of Congress who said this what is about motherfucking eggs

Spent parts of three days trying to get an ESRI-provided Python script to run for some pre-maintenance tasks related to an Enterprise update. Sometime please talk me off the ledge. 😖 #worstscripterever

Dear Fellow Americans: This is a friendly reminder that Trump decided to tax you an extra 15% for no other reason than he was mad at the Supreme Court. 🗽

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court.

Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business.

As well as everyone else who stepped up.

notorious radical left communist rag says tax the rich

In honor of Black History Month, here's a thread with one book recommendation a day.

Save Act - Voting Rights Under Threat YouTube video by Daily MindBrew

The GOP says this is about election security. That’s a lie. Illegal voting is already a felony. What the SAVE Act actually does is make it harder for citizens to register. youtube.com/shorts/7SQA2... #SaveAct #VoterSuppression #GOPCheats

If ICE and CBP don't want to be called secret police, then don't wear masks. 
 
If they don't want to be accused of kidnapping, then don't drag people out of cars & houses without warrants.
 
And if they don't want to be accused of being lawless, then start following the law.

The Dumpster Fire administration.

Happy #Caturday !

“We’re making billionaires even richer, so we should overlook the rape of children” is our own modern Omelas.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.

Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

The problem is, the hype of AI is always so clearly manufactured. It’s sold as essential but mysteriously so — rarely is it portrayed as making life better; it’s sold as doing things WE want to keep doing. We want it to inventory our fridge and detect cancer, not make music and replace us at work.

Just considered the prospect of the New England Patriots scoring zero points in the Super Bowl I still believe in the American dream

Voting blue is not about "rewarding" politicians who you may not be 100% enthusiastic about.
It's not even really about you OR the individual person you are voting for.
Voting blue is about preventing fascists from doing whatever they want to the country and the world.
Don't get it twisted.

If more people had gotten it straight in 2024, it would have saved MILLIONS of USAID recipients.
Don't argue.
Just absorb that reality and think about it.
Use it as a reason to do better this year.
And in 2028.
Don't think up excuses NOT to vote blue.
Do the opposite.
