Our cover this week.

Right Now, most of the American can relate to this message from the 90's.

I'm not concerned about the undocumented immigrant with some parking and speeding tickets. I'm concerned about the American citizen with 34 felony convictions who is driving America right into a fucking ditch.

Breaking: Whirlpool announces they are laying off 651 American workers in Iowa, citing the economic conditions under Trump.

Everything looks like a conspiracy when you don't know how anything works. - Nina Jankowicz She's talking to you, magats.

💥🇭🇺 Police have given up guarding Budapest’s Liberty Bridge as anti-government protesters shut down traffic on four major bridges, rallying against Viktor Orbán’s new law curbing freedom of assembly and banning the Pride march. They vow to escalate with a 24-hour shutdown next week.

That’s my home state senator, @wyden.senate.gov 👏😃👏 Go get ‘em, Senator!! ✊

When the stakes are this high, incompetence is not an option. Pete Hegseth should resign. Mike Waltz should resign.

BREAKING - Pete Buttigieg just now on the Yemen text leaks: "From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe." per: Brian Kressen

Accessible version:

The stakes are too high to NOT participate at this point.

Hayden Haynes, Chief of Staff to Mike Johnson, was arrested for DUI after crashing into a parked Capitol Police car following Trump's televised rambling to the US Congress.

Fellow REI members, here is a campaign organized by REI Union local UFCW 3000 to vote WITHHOLD in the current board of directors election: www.trueco-ops.org

Tariff wars and robber barons, white supremacy and Comstockery, sewage in the water and measles on the march. Truly, he has Made America Gilded Again.

A Federal Reserve bank is now projecting the US economy to shrink in Q1 of 2025 by even more than they projected last week. It was projected to grow when Biden was still in office.

The Soviet Union also used to falsify statistics

Fox News reported that JD Vance had to move to an “undisclosed location” due to protests at the Vermont resort where he’s skiing this weekend. For inflicting misery on the world and here at home in America, this is exactly the energy that should greet Vance wherever he goes for the rest of his days.

literally every time I talk to friends

Chalk up a BIG LOSS to Elon Musk & Starlink, inflicted by Mexican Billionaire Carlos Slim and Latin America…😬

Wish I were one of Elon's kids so I'd never see him again

Nothing quite like being bullied by the richest man alive on a Saturday night. This unelected DOGEbag is threatening the livelihoods, careers, and wellbeing of ~2 million civil servants. We will hold the line, but we need America to stand/speak/act up NOW. 🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

It’s been a long fucking day, I’m tired, and I misspoke. Let me rephrase it in a more correct way. Fuck Hakeem Jeffries and almost every other elected Democratic official for forcing me to be the one to get arrested instead of them doing their goddamn job and being leaders.

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

Planes are crashing because Trump and Musk wanted to cut their own taxes even more. Say it over and over and over again until it sinks into people's brains and they correctly associate every crash with two billionaires who never fly commercial.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

Oh? Is that the problem? All the more reason for Democrats to (a) stop cooperating at all and (b) actively thwart Republican efforts to pass a budget. Block basic procedures. Make different offers to different GOP members. Hardball. What would LBJ do? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

Never forget that Trump was the culmination of 40 years of stagnant wages, widening inequality, corruption, dog-whistle politics, and economic gains for the rich. If we fail to address this, we should expect future Trumps as far as the eye can see.

This is one reason we're mad at Democrats in Congress. They could—as Republicans have done for decades—gum up the works and make it harder to move the fascist agenda forward. Instead they agree to make it easy. With only a handful of exceptions, every Dem in Congress needs to go. Clean house.🧹

Looking for folks to do a Tesla picket with near Philly!

I never forget that we’re in a constitutional crisis/coup and that Elon Musk and Trump are the cause of it. In the face of Congressional cowardice, going to start working the Tesla angle hard.

The AP must refuse this but more importantly the rest of the White House Correspondents Association should back them. Boycott the press briefings until they relent, and if they refuse, walk out. There is no real use to them in any case. Trump craves attention. Deny him that and he’ll cave.

JUST IN: The 1st Circuit Court of appeals has *denied* the Trump administration's emergency motion to block a court order that ordered agencies to lift their spending freeze.

This will be the end of American government institutions as we know them. That means the end of science (and much more) as we know it. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

1/This may truly blowup #KashPatel nomination On left: Patel Testimony: "I'm not aware" of purge inside DOJ/FBI and "don't know what's going on." On right: Whistleblowers tell Senate that Patel was directing the purge! Contemporaneous note: “KP wants movement at FBI, reciprocal actions for DOJ”

It's not about lobbyists. It's about the politicians on this platform deciding to neuter DOGE by doing a better version of what DOGE wants to do. Legislatively. The issue isn't the goal of efficiency and savings. That's important. The issue is the process to get there.
