Liberal elitism is dying. They chose Epstein, they chose genocide, they chose their corporate donors, they chose tech meglomaniacs, they chose to enable fascists, they chose to hollow out the very institutions they cling to. The professional class consultants & voters defending them must be defeated
In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.
Spineless ppl go with the flow whether nazism is the status quo or human rights. Organize with the two people already aligned & the herd will just gravitate toward the easiest thing, whether that’s a reality of kids in cages or a reality of kids with universal pre-k.
It's -20 in Minneapolis and organizers are in the streets before dawn getting ready for actions related to the general strike. They've had locals training out-of-town volunteers on how to prepare for and endure the cold. AND IT IS WORKING. THE STRIKE IS HAPPENING. THE CITY IS DOING THE DAMN THING...
It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

My favorite show is watching ICE vehicles burn. #emmys #oscars
Incrementalists have never been up to the task. Got real comfortable while telling those who suffer most to wait.
The problem with the ‘you voted for the leopards eating your face party’ is that the other party keeps saying they want to work with the leopards eating your face party.
Mitch McConnell made political obstruction his life’s mission
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Friday that he was firing Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first female officer to rise to the Navy’s top job of Chief of Naval Operations, and would be looking for her replacement. The announcement came in a statement emailed to reporters Friday night, shortly after President Trump said he was firing Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Mr. Hegseth said in his statement that he would also replace Gen. James C. Slife, the Air Force’s vice chief of staff, as well as the top uniformed lawyers for the Army, Navy and Air Force.
call it what it is: a military leadership purge

Those ankles are a thirst trap. Also it’s Feb in NYC, no socks hun?
Intelligence is now boarding at Gate 6. As America cuts research, science, and education, our brightest minds are taking off for countries that value them. The brain drain is real, and the departure lounge is full. Will we realize what we've lost before it's too late? #BrainDrain #TalentFlight
So.
It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year.
I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Bernie gave another speech for whatever good it's gonna do.
He's fucking right tho.
I’m always surprised and disheartened by filmmakers’ inability to imagine a better reality for ourselves. Like, you’re the dreamers, and you can’t imagine life beyond capitalism, richie rich? Or maybe it’s bc stories like that don’t appeal to the white male investor class.
California can. Texas probably won’t and he’s mostly based there. The investor class would have to take a hit to their portfolios shutting him down anywhere. And do they see a problem with anything? They exist in privately run universe and trump/musk good for them for now.
I’m concerned dissidents will also end up in Guantanamo, Panama, or now these proposed Arizona gas chambers.
Meta data is the new oil - this is plunder

If you're protesting tomorrow:
"I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present."
MEMORIZE THAT, because aside from asking if you're free to leave (or providing ID if you're in a stop and ID state), that's the ONLY thing you ever say to cops.
I voted to reject RFK Jr.'s nomination to HHS.
I cannot in good conscience support someone who denies and will dilute our public health protections, sow distrust in science, and oversee massive cuts to health care programs for vulnerable Americans.
