Didn’t realize this was a prophecy.

"Sometimes you have to get to know someone really well to realize you're really strangers." - Mary Tyler Moore

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

I was too young in the 60’s & 70s, too self absorbed in the 80’s, too busy raising a family in the 90s and earlier in the 2000s, but in the last 10-15 years I have found my voice! It is louder and stronger than I could have ever imagined! Nobody is coming to save us, we have to save ourselves!

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful. Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

Castro: "The idea that this information, if it was presented to our committee, would not be classified, you all know is a lie. That's ridiculous."

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

Trump and Vance just made Zelensky one of the most popular leaders in the world.

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

Opt out tomorrow!

If your representative is dodging in-person town halls, call them out! Tag them and demand they face their constituents.

All Pete Hegseth talks about is being a warrior and instilling a warrior mindset in the military. Personal courage is the cornerstone of the warrior ethos. I wonder how that fits with being such a coward as to fire generals with 35 or more years of service in a press release on a Friday night.

Germany’s likely new chancellor Friedrich Merz: Look at what Musk has done recently in terms of interventions in the German elections. That is an unprecedented event. The interventions from Washington were no less dramatic, drastic and ultimately brazen than the interventions we had from Moscow...

Europe has a solution for Starlink, it is faster and the quality is better. The IRIS 2 program. IRIS will make Starlink obsolete and provide permanent global coverage. The US, and especially Musk, are not needed. #IRIS #EU youtu.be/V-SXNVeNby0

This is just insane and you all know that, right? Unelected, unfettered, untouchable, unsupported by facts and completely without transparency: www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

That’s nothing. I found 13 contracts awarded to SpaceX since December totaling $77M. 1/

Those dystopian books we read in school are looking less like fiction and more like a blueprint. No wonder they’re being banned—they want to keep us in the dark.

What is happening….

In an interview with Fox News’s Bret Baier tonight, Don the con said: “I’m going to tell him very soon, like maybe in 24 hours, to go check the Department of Education. ... Then I’m going to go, go to the military.”

He is describing a dictatorship. One key difference between the US and Hungary has to do with that first bunch of Constitutional amendments.

On Super Bowl Sunday, here's a reminder of what real courage looks like.

THIS IS PERFECT.

Please love your children so they don’t grow up to be cringey incels.

Please Repost.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

For Reals

What?

Asked when prices will actually start coming down, a flustered Karoline Leavitt says, "prices at the store and at the grocery pump?" and provides a non-answer

Sometimes you just have to say “fuck you” with a flourish

This is handy

If Trump dismantles the Dept. of Education, he will be jeopardizing public education for our most vulnerable communities. Rural schools. Low-income areas. Special ed teachers and students with disabilities. Our families, kids, and teachers deserve more.

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines. The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds. It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

Brief break from hawking The Onion to tell everyone I just subscribed to Wired. Please support publications who do brave work right now. www.wired.com/v2/offers/wi...

Texas Gov. Gregg Abbott signed an order to remove all DEI programs in TX state buildings. He uses a ramp for his wheelchair to enter the state capitol every day; a ramp was installed due to DEI policies. Abbott obviously believes DEI is for black people only, which is why this racist nixed it.

'Never sent a bill': European leader delivers scathing history lesson amid Trump threats: President Donald Trump was put on notice Monday by a senior European official — international security is not a one way street. Amid Trump’s bluster over its NATO allies — pushing last month for its members…

Way back in 2016, @GOP believed the truth: the economy is just a complex set of interactions between people, and govt should facilitate that. Tariffs are the opposite. It’s big govt. And they say I changed. LOL

Time to turn off the taps. Not a single bottle of American wine, beer or bourbon should be sold anywhere in Canada. From here on in I will only drink "freedom" wines from Canada, France or Spain. As for the beer? It's shit anyways. True. North. Strong. Free. @strongasfuck

Well thats a beer ill never buy again. (not to mention the driver was so busy texting and taking selfies that the Nazi Beer car almost caused three accidents. #NaziClownCar

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
