Who'd ever thought that #employees of a #government #agency "managed" by #sycophants, #psychopaths,, #nazis, and #losers wouldn't be paid or receive health insurance?
Also, it's hilariously pathetic that #ICE agents are airing their grievances on #Reddit....of all places.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Kherson CAT 7 Tourniquets: An Update
🗣️I just received confirmation from my Ukrainian friend from Spravzhni #Ukraine, a grassroots group doing vital humanitarian work, that the lifesaving tourniquets I mailed in Nov. 2025 from the U.S. for the heroes on the frontline in #Kherson have reached the defenders.
🎯Whether it’s donating, raising awareness, or simply sending a message of encouragement, every bit of support matters.

"Every #democracy facing this challenge has learned you don’t defeat authoritarians by being more reasonable. You defeat them by being more determined and by uniting the country against their most visible vulnerability: their #corruption.
#History won’t judge #Democrats on whether they were moderate enough. It will judge them on whether they fought hard enough, and smart enough, when democracy was threatened."

"The #politics of careful positioning and poll-tested moderation have been tested, and on their own, they have failed to deliver the victories needed to protect democracy. The choice now is to transform the party’s strategy to meet the scale of the threat, or to fail.
👉 In this contest, failure is not just an electoral defeat; it may be the end of democratic self-governance."👈

We recognize how their struggle inspired and laid the groundwork for movements advancing the rights of women, #immigrants, and all marginalized communities.
📚During these challenging times of banning #books and whitewashing history, we need educate ourselves and reflect on the truth that our destinies are connected, and progress for one #community strengthens us all.
🎯Let us honor this shared humanity not just in memory, but through peaceful civic action against systemic inequities—
3/3
including racism—and by exercising our constitutional rights, including our most powerful tool for change: the vote.
🗳️ Register to vote.
🗳️ Vote in local and national elections.
🇺🇸 Be the change.

🇺🇸Since 2023, I’ve served as a volunteer poll worker in both local and national elections. This upcoming Special Election in March will be my 6th time serving.
Here’s what I’ve learned:
▪️ Poll workers are the soul of our democracy. Whether it’s a town vote or a presidential race, the process is the same.
▪️ There’s a nationwide shortage. We need neighbors helping neighbors to keep polling places open.
▪️ Volunteerism is #patriotism.
🇺🇸🇩🇴As a first‑gen #Dominican #American, I’m grateful for the
3/3
opportunities this country gave my family. I honor those who fought for our right to vote by showing up to protect the process today.

Deep in the woods lies an abandoned VW Beetle Car Graveyard.
Hundreds of Volkswagen Beetles and Bus Campervans are organised into rows and clusters, seemingly based on age and model.
This fleet of rusting rainbow-coloured vehicles appears to represent every colour.
Somewhere in the USA, some years ago.

Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good… They died trying to make America great again.
This song’s great. Maybe it’s time Bruce became president.

The road to #Fascism is paved by people telling you to stop overreacting (that's not a Bradbury quote but a fundamental Truth of our time). Many of us called out every step of the path, exponentially more just lazily sniffed that they "don't pay attention to politics."
This quote serves equally well for #Fascism as it does #ClimateChange and indeed so much else. It's well past time we got serious and a great many of us, our leadership most of all, remain as frivolous, under-informed & drastically unsuited to the challenge as we've ever been. #Fahrenheit451 #RayBradbury #America
