“This is not working” isn’t a complaint anymore, it’s a rallying cry, and Troy Jackson is turning it into a movement. Universal healthcare, affordable childcare, reproductive freedom, working people demanding all of it at once. Ninety days to help make it real. #BlueWaveIn90Days
SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏

“No good deed goes unpunished.” I always thought it was Shakespeare, so I asked AI where he said it. He didn’t. It actually comes from Walter Map, 12th century writer. He describes a wicked ruler who “left no good deed unpunished, no bad one unrewarded.” Tell me that doesn’t sound like 2026.😊
