How long until we see Disney change its language? I guess at least it didn't comply in advance...🙄

"The Constitution prohibits public officials from accepting a present from a foreign state" -- Mike Pence has discovered the Emoluments Clause!

In our entire history only one President got our credit downgraded in both his terms AND got us added to the Human Rights Watch List.

Ahem

Sen. Chris Murphy to NBC on Democratic opposition to the GOP mega-bill: "What we're standing in the way of is the most massive transfer of wealth from the poor and the middle class to the rich in the history of the country."

It’s especially galling that AG Pam Bondi personally wrote the memo approving the gift of the Qatari airplane. Her last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar! efile.fara.gov/docs/6415-Ex...

Since leaving Twitter, I had forgotten Jonathan Turley existed. Apparently he is still obsessed with me. It is amazing people still pay him to teach them law. He is just Mike Lindell with tenure.

The container ships coming from China are nonexistent and the passenger planes coming from Canada are empty. Donny, you're doing a heck of a job!

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most

I put my feet to the ground in my first democracy/anti-Trump protest yesterday. I was exhausted after 3rd shifting, but I keep saying, "The time is now." If we have to do it tired, we'll do it tired

😂🥴😂

Republican lawmakers are cowards and driven solely by personal gains

Family includes everyone! ❤️

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

🚨 Wisconsin!🚨 Vote #SusanCrawford on April 1st for reproductive rights, fair voting laws, and balanced legislative maps. Musk has spent over $12 mil to help MAGA Brad Schimel. Don’t let him dictate Wisconsin’s future. Vote for Crawford to ensure the judiciary represents the people’s interests.

Not satisfied with purchasing a Presidential Election to become co-President, Sissy SpaceX now wants to buy himself a Supreme Court judge in Wisconsin. You can end his shopping spree, Wisconsinites! 🚫 💰 #VoteForJudgeSusanCrawford 🗳️ ✅ 👍 This is super important.

Elon Musk took in another $8 million in taxpayer money this morning, as he does every morning. But Granny needs to eat cat food and live in a tent. Got it.

NSA sent out a bulletin last month: "A vulnerability has been identified in the Signal Messenger Application. The use of Signal by common targets of surveillance & espionage activity has made the application a high value target to intercept sensitive information." www.cbsnews.com/news/nsa-sig...

Himes: "As far as I can tell, we're now on team Kremlin ... the president's chief Russia negotiator, Steve Witkoff, is repeating Russian talking points and participating in a mad cap Signal chat about an attack on Yemen while inside Russia."

After the White House confirmed the Signal thread's authenticity, Hegseth dodged responsibility for what is a significant security breach - resorting instead to gaslighting and rehearsed deflection. Also, he's clearly been drinking - as I'm sure he was while texting war plans Propaganda 👇🏼

Reminder. Pass it on.

The real story isn’t that the Trumpians let a journalist into a group chat, it is that they are plotting against Europe.

The fact that Trump is delivering such highly politicized remarks, as well as some lies, at the Department of Justice is outrageous and disgraceful.

Trump: "We're focused on persecuting."

This discussion about cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid is all theoretical and full of big numbers. The impact for average Americans will be unreal even if you personally aren't drawing from those programs now. I tried to dive deeper in my latest: open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

True facts.

They called him Sleepy Joe because we could sleep at night.

This Trump proclamation was demonstrably false when he shrieked it but was a good prognosis of what he managed to do in just the first seven weeks of his insane second term as president:

An excellent ad Democrats should make their own. h/t @barubin.bsky.social

Well at least we have cheap eggs—oh wait.

The election for the WI State Supreme Court is 21 days away. On 4/1 let’s elect Susan Crawford, a liberal justice who will protect the rights of Wisconsinites. Here are 2 things you can do to help her get elected:🧵 1/4

This is fascism. If you've ever wondered what you would do, now is the moment when you find out. If there is a protest, go to it. If not, organize one. Call Congress. If you have a microphone, now is the time to use it. The historical record is crystal clear. This will not stop here.

This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

Market down. Twitter down. Recession talk up.

Fake group funded by Muskolini is running ads that lie about Susan Crawford, who's running for a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme court. When is Elmo getting deported back to South Africa? #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #RepublicansAreDestroyingAmerica apnews.com/article/musk...

Demand an immediate response from Chief Justice John Roberts regarding Trump’s cryptic comment following the State of the Union: “Thank you again, thank you, I won’t forget it.” Flood his office with calls until we get a transparent answer. (202) 479-3000, Monday through Friday 9 AM to 5:30 PM

Spotted in Canada…

And generally speaking, lack of empathy is a central characteristic of people with one or more Cluster B personality disorders.

PSA: Censuring @RepAlGreen will only make him stronger. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

BREAKING - Trump repeats another MASSIVE lie - claiming that US has spent $350 billion on Ukraine and Europe only $100 billion WRONG - here are the real numbers: US - $114 billion Europe - $132 billion

I've been thinking something similar about Rubio. Somewhere between 2020 (when Rubio let SSCI finish the Russian investigation that Richard Burr started before his alleged stock cheating was selectively investigated) and this year, Trump grew confident that Rubio would never cross him.

Musk took a break from finding fraud, waste, and abuse to order the FAA to make room in the budget to line his own pockets. Par for the course. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

SCOOP: The Air Force general who oversaw its lobbying before Congress had inappropriate romantic relationships with five women, including three who worked on Capitol Hill. Sources tell @propublica.org that one of those scrutinized was @senjoniernst.bsky.social
