that tiny bonus pocket in your jeans is for what's left of your 401k

President Donald Trump says taxing imports will strengthen domestic manufacturing. Hours before announcing new tariffs, his administration cut support for centers that help US firms do just that.

For American readers, this is from one of the UK's leading right-wing newspapers today. The game is up. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/comment/2...

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Hegseth asked did he get the job “because of his skin color? Or his skill? We’ll never know, but always doubt.”

BREAKING: SpaceX's Starship EXPLODES, causing FAA to halt flights at 4 major airports The previous Starship also exploded, in January THIS is why FAA probed SpaceX for safety And THIS is why Musk has been trying to kill FAA - and why he should NOT get any more govt contracts

"Let" Have any of these people seen their job descriptions?!

Let's just be clear about this--Reagan was not in any way a good president. And without him, we wouldn't be in this whole mess right now. 🧵1/

For many of us, who have lived under fascist conditions in this very country, whose ancestors have as well, this has always been our reality. Now, it is everyone’s reality. Welcome.

NEW SCOOP: Some staffers at Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency are drawing robust taxpayer-funded salaries from the federal agencies they are slashing and burning, WIRED has learned. ⬇️ Here's how much they're making:

american masculinity is so amazing. caring about clothes as a man apparently makes you "gay" but our position on geopolitics totally depends on whether you wear a suit

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

House Republicans are frantically canceling town halls after voting yesterday to take away your health care, close rural hospitals, and shut down addiction clinics. They're terrified of facing the American people, but we need to keep chasing them wherever they go. Make them feel the heat.

Holy shit. This is scary. Senator Chris Murphy just revealed on the Senate floor that Republicans now have the votes to cut $2 trillion in services for seniors on Medicare and kids on Medicaid. Tomorrow is the House’s vote. $2 TRILLION IN CUTS. The worst part 👇

Russia started this war by brutally invading a sovereign democracy and claiming innocent lives. You will not rewrite history. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

Trump's DOJ has erased a report from its website that lays out its own recommendations for tackling violence against Indigenous women www.huffpost.com/entry/donald...

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Idk some of us caught on pretty early

Every member of the House is back on your home turf for congressional recess. We’ve got events scheduled across the nation to get their attention — because fighting back against the Trump-Musk coup is going to take all of us: indivisible.org/muskorus

The Senate will vote tomorrow on whether RFK Jr will lead HHS. For this final 24 hours we are asking you to call/visit/email your Senators and DEMAND a NO vote on RFK Jr. Kennedy's views on science and medicine are not only wrong, they are actively harmful and destructive.

ACTION ITEM: CANCEL SPOTIFY Spotify is the sole proprietor of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. Rogan is a vile propagandist for the Republican party who has been spreading lies & disinformation for years. He is now involved in spreading lies & justifications for the dismantling of USAID ect.

Donald Trump wants to gut checks and balances and give himself sole power to: ❌Eliminate the Department of Education ❌Cut popular programs that help kids, working families, seniors, and veterans ❌Jeopardize our most sensitive private info like our SSNs and bank account details

Cowards!

Majority of Americans say they oppose Donald Trump’s threatened tariff war against Canada Nearly two-thirds of Americans oppose Donald Trump’s threats to launch an unprovoked trade war against Canada, new US poll finds

I just lost my job, along with most of my coworkers, due to the illegal grant freeze. I worked at an organization that -helped veterans who have lost a limb -Assisted elderly and disabled people -Helped hospitals better treat people who have lost limbs

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.

I know these are challenging times — and the Trump administration is trying to confuse the American people. That’s why it’s so important we speak plainly: Donald Trump is incompetent.

This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.

Congrats. You played yourself.
