Donny don't do
#Due #process
He emulates #Hitler
He is sending #Americans
To #ElSalvador and #Libya?
We the people
Need to rise up now!
Millions of Americans have protested
The Constitution is a guarantee
Don is a criminal
He is breaking the rules
#Checks and #balances
Will hold the him #accountable

Senator Warner: #peteHegseth didn't deny that he put his family members on this chat. I think it's amazing that he has not been held #accountable. This guy needs to be replaced

On April 17th, #PalestinianPrisonersDay, the #BDS movement, calls for holding #Microsoft, #HP and #Cisco #accountable for their roles in maintaining Israel’s illegal apartheid regime and for their particular role in Israel’s prison system which is well known for its egregious human rights violations.

If you are in the US please #callyoursenators to reject the proposed CR #fundingbill!! This #continuingresolution hands the keys over to #trump and #musk to ransack our #government for the next 6 months. #TrumpRegime and #MuskNazi are ignoring law while the government is open. Being closed won't change much except give up #democrats, who are the #MinorityParty in both Senate and House, last #bargainingchip for 6 months. So much #damage has been done in less than two months, in 6 months there may be little to save.

Ask your #senators to let the #governmentshutdown if that's what #republicans want. The #GOPfascists Speaker Mike Johnson quickly rammed the CR through the #houseofrepresentatives by offering #gopcowards representatives conflicting promises. He then forced the House to break and end their session of Congress, which limited the #senate to accept the CR or let the government shut down. Budgets need to be #bipartisanlegislation. Furthermore, #TrumpLies and #muskrat have illegally #impounded funds approved by #congress, showing that budgets need to be enforced or Congress is a #powerlessshell. The #goptraitors has signaled for the last two months that they have no interest in protecting their co-equality as a branch of government. If #democratsawol give up their last position of #power, Congress will be #beholden to the Executive Branch. They will have #surrendered their #constitutional responsibility to act as a backstop to #executiveoverreach. Call your Senators to hold them #accountable to the people. Hold them to their oath to the Constitution. #oathtoconstitution #FuckTrump #FuckElon #FuckElonMusk

'When #BigOil Says Jump, Republicans Ask How High?' #GOP Sends #ClimateKilling Bill to #Trump's Desk

"It's a sorry testament to the influence of Big Oil on Capitol Hill that one of the top priorities of Congress is a blatant handout to the worst actors in the #FossilFuel industry," said one critic.

Jessica Corbett, Feb 28, 2025

"Climate advocates are blasting congressional Republicans this week for their latest gift to fossil fuel industry: sending a resolution to kill the federal Methane Emissions Reduction Program to the desk of U.S. President Donald #Trump.

"#BigOil - backed Trump is expected to sign the Congressional Review Act resolution, which senators passed along party lines on Thursday. That followed a Wednesday vote in the House of Representatives, where Democratic Reps. Henry Cuellar (Texas), Jared Golden (Maine), Vincente Gonzalez (Texas), Adam Gray (Calif.), Kristen Donald Rivet (Mich.), and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.) supported the measure alongside all Republicans present except Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania.

"#Methane has more than 80 times as much warming power as carbon dioxide during its first two decades in the atmosphere. The pollution program was established by the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) last November. The Associated Press reported Thursday that 'most major oil and gas companies do not release enough methane to trigger the fee, which is $900 per ton, an amount that would increase to $1,500 by 2026.'

"The GOP resolution will end the program, but not the mandate from the 2022 law. #MahyarSorour, #SierraClub's director of beyond fossil fuels policy, declared that 'this attack on EPA's implementation of the methane waste emissions charge is short-sighted and harmful. It remains a legal requirement for EPA to hold the biggest methane #polluters #accountable for their negligence.'

"'Forcing the agency to implement the charge some other way after conducting a thorough, well-researched process is as wasteful of taxpayer resources as these oil and gas operators are wasteful of harmful methane,' Sorour argued.

"'Technology to monitor and stop leaks is readily available and easy to implement, so only wasteful, careless corporations will face a fee for excessive methane pollution. Despite this setback, Sierra Club will not stop fighting to make polluters pay for their egregious actions.'"

🚀 As #AI plays an increasing role in our lives, one question stands out: How do we ensure AI is #accountable and #transparent? We talked to Jordan Maris about the role of open source in AI and how open source can establish itself in EU policies.

Jordan Maris, policy analyst at the @osi has been at the forefront of defending open source in EU policies.

More from #DemocracyNow's interview with #RalphNader:

JUAN GONZÁLEZ: Ralph? Ralph, let me ask you. For the #progressive movement now, as it faces the return of Donald #Trump, what do you think are the next steps in terms of #resistance or reorganization that have to occur?

RALPH NADER: Well, it’s got to be focused on #Congress. The House is not yet resolved, but only Congress can stop the #Trumpsters. It isn’t just Trump. Trump is a figurehead. Trump is a bullhorn. It’s the Trumpsters. It’s the #HeritageFoundation. It’s [#Project2025]. It’s the takeover of departments that are dedicated to standing up for the people, the environmental protection bureau [#EPA], the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau [#CFPB], the #AutoSafety bureau [I'll bet Trump puts Elon in charge of that], the Federal Trade Commission [#FTC], the Justice Department. These are all going to be turned into virulent, vengeful or inactive governments. They want to destroy the civil service, bring it back to the spoils system. We’re in for huge turmoil. One can say that the election yesterday really elected #PresidentVance. Trump is not going to last. He’s going to disintegrate. And #Vance is in a position to become the next president.

So, what has to be done, Juan, is massive focus on Congress, which is the main constitutionally authorized lever to hold the executive branch #accountable, build for 2026. The Democrats will have far fewer people up for the Senate than the Republicans, unlike this year.

And they’ve got to stop blasting away at people who want to challenge the #DemocraticParty. The party says to everybody on their side, “You know how bad the Republicans are? You got nowhere to go.” They spent a lot of money attacking the #GreenParty, the tiny Green Party, instead of listening to William Barber, Reverend William Barber, who said, “Look, there’s 80 million people who aren’t going to vote. A lot of them are low-wage workers. If you get 15% of low-wage workers who aren’t voting to go to the polls, the Democrats would have won.” They didn’t listen to him. They didn’t listen to all the citizen groups who know how to talk to people, not just liberal patients or liberal workers, but conservative workers, conservative patients. Remember, a vast majority of this country wants to tax the undertaxed #wealthy and the #corporations. They want to break up the #BigBanks. And above all, in poll after poll, they say that corporations have too much control over their lives. Sherrod Brown pulled in his horns and lost. #BernieSanders campaigned on corporate power, and he won in a landslide in Vermont. And Harris refused to campaign with Bernie Sanders, but she campaigned in several states with #LizCheney of the criminal Cheney family and the invasion of #Iraq that killed over a million Iraqis.

So the blunders were endless. And it was basically turning her back on the progressive and the genuine populist constituency in this country. And Bernie, of course, supported Harris, but his positions were rejected constantly. He said, “Get the living wage up. Get universal healthcare up. Crack down on corporate crooks. Increase Social Security benefits that have been frozen for over 50 years. And get the taxation on the wealthy.” She ignored all that. Just throwaway lines.

OUCH!

I can only speak for the I grew up in, but I believe the following also applies to most human cultures. We seem to expect our children to know what they want to do, and stick with it. I get how it's imperative to have , , and be held . But our blind demand towards to decide on their at a time when the is still developing, and then having the expectation that this is a decision is ludicrous.
