- The people of Minneapolis have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. The first time a city's population has ever been nominated. #Minneapolis #Nobel
- This is real! Not only do the people deserve it, it’ll drive Trump bananas. And NO, Donald, they will not give it to you, even when you say if it weren’t for you…

- It’s not really a head scratcher, Bezos. Readers want a return of the quality that was the legendary Washington Post. We don’t want AI-generated pablum or recycled Fox “News” for people who don’t read. Sell it to someone who respects the WAPO, and wants to restore. Your trajectory ain’t working.
- NEW: The unfathomable Minnesota transcript that must be read, as it tells the reality of America today. "I am not white, as you can see," Julie Le — a government lawyer — told a federal judge on Tuesday. "And my family's at risk as any other people that might get picked up too ..." Law Dork:
- Must reading. This is unbelievable but, these days, completely believable. It’s time judges begin holding Trump “administration” leadership in contempt for disregarding court orders. @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social @nicollewallace.bsky.social
- Me, too.
- It’s time for a female president. There is no way President Harris would have weakened the U.S. the way Trump has, in record time.
- Thank you to everyone in CA including the elected officials and voters who successfully accomplished mid-decade redistricting to swiftly counter the attempted theft by Texas. Action and tangible results are so much better than gripes and strongly worded letters.

- True. CA voters approved the creation of an independent redistricting commission for state offices in 2008 & congressional offices in 2010. We voted to temporarily suspending the commission until 2030. Every state should have an ind redistricting commission, to end gerrymandering by both parties.

- "…why some of the state's top federal prosecutors chose to leave -- it had nothing to do with political disagreement; rather, this administration asked them to violate their legal and ethical responsibilities, and they believed the exit was their only option…” www.cbsnews.com/news/minneso...
- 💯
- I cancelled my WAPO sub when it became apparent Bezos is a Trump toadie, recognizing it would eventually lead to layoffs of people who don’t deserve it. Unfortunately, money is the only way to get thru to owners like Bezos. I’m ready willing & able to resub when a responsible adult buys WAPO.

- U.S. coal use has declined because there are cleaner fuels and alternative energy sources available. There is no such thing as “clean coal” that Trump talks about. In other words, “market forces” are doing in coal. Remember the free-market system, Repubs, that you used to believe in?
