A very harsh truth!

Harvard University on Monday rejected demands by the Trump administration to eliminate its DEI programs and screening international students for ideological concerns, putting nearly $9 billion in federal funding for the university at risk.

This aged badly

Lovely sunset

Donald Trump and Elon Musk gave the greenlight for scammers to cheat servicemembers and veterans. Now, military families are left to fend for themselves. How can anyone think this is a good idea? 🔗: www.newyorker.com/news/deep-st... - @newyorker.com

The judge said it best, “the cruel irony is that thousands of transgender service members risk &!sacrifice their lives to ensure the very equal protection rights the military ban seeks to deny them.” We must fight for ALL our military & I mean ALL 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ tinyurl.com/yckeumsa

Shameful

⚡️FIGHT THE OLIGARCHY RALLY ⚡️ STARTING TOMORROW. Nevada. Arizona. Colorado. You, me, and Bernie. Dem and GOP districts. ❤️💙 See you there 💪🏽🌞

This is outrageous. The FTC has carried out its mission of protecting consumers and taking on monopolies in a bipartisan way for more than 110 years. Illegally gutting the Commission empowers fraudsters and monopolists, and consumers will pay the price.

In March, the Trump administration imposed 25% tariffs on all aluminum entering the United States. Here’s what it could mean for the U.S. economy. Find more: cnb.cx/3Du4UCo

The undocumented parents of a 10-year-old US citizen whose family was removed to Mexico say they are desperately seeking a way for either of them to return to the US with the girl so she can continue brain cancer treatment. cnn.it/3FrZfNy

Chaos is up. Corruption is up. You know what else is up? Egg prices.‬ ‪After promising to lower prices, the Administration is not doing enough to bring health care costs down, to bring housing costs down, and to bring child care costs down.‬

In case you’re not sure how it’s going down here, America.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

Here's a riddle:

In honor of black inventors. #BlackHistoryMonth

Now more than ever.

Couldnt resist a Friday Finger or two. Could you?

So it turns out when you DON'T go woke, you go broke. Trump's New DEI? Dying Economy and Inflation. It's only two weeks in and Trump is Making America Broke Again! www.forbes.com/sites/dereks...

A measles outbreak is growing in a rural area of West Texas where vaccination rates are well below the recommended level.

Elon Musk said Friday he will rehire a DOGE staffer who abruptly resigned following the exposure of his tweets advocating for racism and eugenics.

It's ILLEGAL for special government employees to do government work that affects their own financial interests! Musk's companies got $3.3 BILLION in US government contracts in 2024, and now he's deciding who gets federal funding. House Judiciary Dems are calling on the DOJ to investigate NOW.

I often talk about righteous fights. Make no mistake: we are in one. This fight will be long. Trump will continue to distract, divide, and demoralize us. But when things get tough, there is only one option ahead of us: Nevertheless, we must persist. 🧵Part one:

Accurate.

@repstansbury.bsky.social Putting up w Gosar, MTG and Comer has to be infuriating. To have to deal w the ignorance these three display on a daily basis has to be exhausting. Thank you for dealing w these morons. Keep up the fight. Go NM too.

@amyklobuchar.com I just listened to you and Patel today. Thank you for the work you do especially today. In my mind your integrity has never been in question and today is an example of that. Again, thank you.

With all the MAGA bs that’s taking place everywhere I don’t know what to think. I knew it would be bad but w Hegseth just being confirmed what is going to stop the orange train? Sad day folks, sad day.

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.
