Do you know what I'm more worried about than the Michigan primary? Climate change. It's pretty much the only news item which I cannot read when it comes across my feed because it's so fucking terrifying. Maybe we should elect Democrats to fix that shit instead of fighting amongst ourselves.

Jesus, people. I'm pissed off too, but you do realize that the only chance we have to win our democracy back is as big tent Democrats right? So be cranky, but understand this is our team. It's our only team.

The fascists are not inevitable. They're not unstoppable. They're not all powerful. They want you to think that, but millions turned out last month to call their bluff. And millions turned out today to claim our power. We will win.

Was just shown a summary statement from an NIH Small business commercialization Readiness Pilot Program (CRP) Grant. My question is, who the fuck is on the review panel for these grants? How is the phrase 'bloated government' appropriate in review? #NIH #PeerReview #CSR

I mean, this has to be an impeachable offense, right? This man has single-handedly crashed the whole fucking global economy in a weekend. Is this the first time in history someone has done this? Surely it's time for someone to step in. Any adults left in the room?

It’s time folks. They’re coming for voting rights They’re coming for unions They’re coming for social security They’re coming for healthcare We need to stand up, link arms and tell them HANDS OFF. Repost & ❤️ if you’re signing up to hit the streets on April 5th. Get inspired 👇👇👇

Okay, I get it. No one is coming to save us. But realistically, the only people who can save us right now are the Republican Senators. He's destroying our alliances. Trade. Science. Health. Tourism. Now he's rewriting history. There must be a line, right? They can't love their jobs this much.

Here are the most likely Democrats to offer up the remaining seven votes to avoid a shutdown: Mark Kelly (AZ), Ruben Gallego (AZ), Michael Bennet (CO), John Hickenlooper (CO), Jon Ossoff (GA), Gary Peters (MI), Elissa Slotkin (MI), Maggie Hassan (NH), Mark Warner (VA). prospect.org/politics/202...

Senate Democrats’ Choice: Block the Republican Spending Bill or Dissolve Congress

The House’s continuing resolution would effectively hand over spending decisions to Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

Okay Democrats. We are freaking smart. We are really funny. We are hella creative. Can we not bring all this together, rise to the moment and destroy this shit? Is there not good trouble that we can get into that is smart, funny, and creative and can bring them down?

We need a DAILY press conference with the Dems best messengers (AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Pete Buttigieg, Jamie Raskin, etc) breaking down exactly how Trump and Musk are destroying our country and debunking their bullshit. Stream it on every single platform. Every single day. For as long at it takes.

1/4 A thread explaining Trump’s attack on Higher Ed research. Doge is gutting higher ed funding—but they won’t admit it. Cuts to research & key programs total nearly $1.9B, yet DOGE keeps changing records to hide the damage. The future of education is at stake. Read more: tinyurl.com/Higher-EdDoge

DOGE fails to accurately disclose contract and program cuts

Education scholars say the administration’s rash of cuts and lack of quality transparency will have a “devastating effect” on public policy and student outcomes for years to come.

Look, I absolutely do believe there's room for discussion, debate, and dialogue and cooperation between all the varieties of left of center. But what I'm seeing now is a lot of really negative shit that is not helpful at all. This is not the time, people. It's not the time.

Here is some truth: Putin invaded Ukraine. NATO is the most successful military alliance in history. Since 1945, American leadership has ensured freedom and security for ourselves and millions of others around the world.

Okay, call me crazy, but do we have hackers on our side? Do we have people who can hack into data? Do we have troll farms? I know so many women who would love to be in a troll farm. So many who would happily troll all day if it works actually achieve something!
