Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social‬ (D-CT) warned that Trump's threat to democracy isn’t looming, it’s unfolding in real time. He described Trump's efforts as a "well-planned, coordinated attempt" to undermine democratic institutions, exploit government agencies and suppress opposition.

So, the administration is composed of people without experience or expertise in the jobs they’ve been appointed to. Bad enough. But once they’re nominated, they appear to make no effort to learn what the job entails. Just blindly carry on without a clue.

Wells Fargo has a long record of breaking the law—and this past year, was caught violating anti-money laundering, consumer protection, and securities laws. Lifting the asset cap was a grave mistake. The Fed must show its work and turn over Wells Fargo's exam reports to Congress.

BREAKING: Trump admin must process education grants "without delay" A federal judge preserved his ability to enforce the ruling even if the Senate passes a budget bill restraining his contempt power. @AllRiseNews.com www.allrisenews.com/p/linda-mcma...

DOGE was a smash and grab robbery of our personal data.

I used to make lists and check off the tasks I completed. Now I just make lists.

This may save millions of lives--except in the US, where ignorant kook Robert Kennedy Jr will probably ban it because of some ridiculous, totally made-up reason.

This idiot has pardoned more criminals then he's actually had arrested..

This is why it's called a Cult!

So tell me again how a janitor voting is ā€œrigging the systemā€ — but 13 billionaires in MAGA hats calling the shots from a table like Bond villains isn’t the Deep State? Spoiler: You’re the mark.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

Senator Joni Ernst rails against food stamps for poor kids—yet her own family raked in over $461,000 in farm subsidies. Funny how ā€œbig governmentā€ is only bad when it’s feeding someone else’s children.

Russia still has the opportunity to surrender and withdraw fully from Ukraine, peace is in their hands if they want it.

At a time when people are understandably focused on the daily chaos in Washington, these articles describe the rapidly accelerating impact that AI is going to have on jobs, the economy, and how we live.

I’m ashamed of Johns Hopkins. Appeasement is not the answer.

The reality that masked men without proper identification are confronting and arresting and taking away people should be intolerable to anyone who calls themselves American.

Court of International Trade said Wednesday that the Constitution gives Congress exclusive authority to regulate commerce with other countries that is not overridden by the president's emergency powers to safeguard the economy. He overstepped his authority. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

If you want to understand why this country is in the state it’s in, and why we have no real functioning opposition party, consider this: Rubio has been the most dangerous and dictatorial member of the Trump cabinet. And yet every single Senate Democrat voted Yes to confirm him.

A convicted felon should not be allowed to pardon anyone,,,,, Trump's flurry of pardons include some to campaign contributors. abcnews.go.com/US/trumps-fl...

Oil production up, corporate profits up, workforce cut by 50%. Wages stagnant. But Albertans, led by the Cons for all but 4 years, blindly blame … the Feds? Read the article Alberta. It’s 2025. Take off the blinders. #cdnpoli

PeoplešŸ’™There’s growing concern that Elon is breaking laws! He’s pushing government agencies to install/ use software to enrich himself & xAI, & not to the benefit of the American people ! Elon is expanding his power for money ! Musk must go 🤬 #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #DemsUnited newrepublic.com/post

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

Elon Musk has a favorite phrase when making bold promises: ā€œNext year.ā€ From Full Self Driving and Hyperloop to robotaxis and literal robot armies, we traced his timeline of big talk and missed marks—because in Elon’s world, hype usually outruns reality.

But of course he was. šŸ’™ #TuesdayThoughts šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆ #FBR #FBPE #Resistance #StrongerTogether #KindnessMatters #Motivation #Bluecrew instinctmagazine.com/maga-ricci-w...
