Thank you, Trump voters.

“OK, Boomer” just got flipped on its head. At protests across the country this past weekend, older Americans turned out in force, leading chants, waving signs and showing that resistance has no age limit. And their passion isn’t just inspiring. It might be what helps save democracy.

Finally a phone that drops calls and our democracy.

"I believe it is important to show up and bear witness…and to do it in the tradition of nonviolent witness." NYC Comptroller Brad Lander speaks out after his arrest at a federal courthouse, where Lander and his wife said they were serving as advocates for defendants in immigration court.

See you at 1 AM, yes, you read that right, when Republicans take up the spending bill, which includes a provision that would restrict courts from holding gov’t officials in contempt for violating court orders—possibly explaining the subterfuge. www.justsecurity.org/113529/terri...

“I want to believe that the United States will stay at our side, but we have to be ready if it doesn’t.” French President Emmanuel Macron speaks to his nation in a televised address about global "uncertainty."

A pair of rulings have exposed deep divisions on the Supreme Court about how much power the federal judiciary has to stop President Donald Trump.

Just saying the quiet part out loud

A lifetime of farming in southern Virginia means he has seen good and bad years, healthy crops and high prices, lower yields and a shortage of buyers. But this farmer says actions by the month-old Trump administration have hit his industry with a new level of concern. Details: cnn.it/4h47mgy

We should be writing Project 2029—defining the society we want, clearly and publicly. Let’s start today.

I never want a single media outlet to ever take seriously a single current Republican politician claiming to be serious about national security or the challenge of a rising China ever again.

One more thing -- this hearing was amazing in part because the judge gave a very impassioned and heartfelt defense of federal service, and the role played by both the federal government and its employees in our society. ❤️

Maybe Donold won’t release the unredacted Epstein list because his name is all over it? Just a thought.

The People's Union USA, a grassroots group, is calling on Americans to join a national boycott by not shopping for 24 hours on Friday.

And this morning the Shed is the dim outline of a shed, rising out of the ground mist like the ghosts of a fallen army...

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

OPINION: “The White House has always had a contentious relationship with the press, but never to this level.” @symonedsanders.bsky.social writes on how Trump’s new White House press policy only exists in dictatorships and autocracies. READ MORE: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Federal workers are slated to receive a second email Saturday asking them for a bullet-point description of what they did in the past week — only this time, a new strategy from the Trump administration means they might have to respond.

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

A CNN analysis of Trump’s first week in office found that two-thirds of his early executive orders and actions appear closely aligned with Project 2025’s plans.

President Trump, without evidence, launched into the blame game over the deadly midair collision over the Potomac River as the search for the dead continues. Follow live updates: cnn.it/3EktdCH

I just watching the news and when DJT was asked “how can you blame DEI” he said “because I have common sense.” Disgusting man.

What’s with that weird curl on the side of Tulsi Gabbard’s hair? Is she going to DJT’s stylist?

With no evidence, Trump blames DEI for midair collision of passenger jet and Black Hawk helicopter. Trump criticizing diversity as 67 people died and search and recovery efforts continue in the Potomac River.

sure maybe the price of eggs is sky high but at least we have a president who is unafraid to blame a plane crash on all the gay

During a press conference addressing the plane collision in D.C., NBC News' Peter Alexander challenged President Trump's claim that DEI initiatives at the FAA began under Biden. The text the President cited was on the FAA's website in 2013 and remained up during his first term.

We are in the days of shock & awful, where Trump tries to make people feel so overwhelmed by all the rapid changes & actions that they quit trying to keep up. Don't give into that. Learn about what you have the bandwidth for. Understand that these are steps being taken to break down democracy.

Elderly camp survivors, some wearing striped scarves that recall their prison uniforms, walked to the the Death Wall, where prisoners were executed. Across Europe, officials were pausing to remember.

Dear Humans, Trump’s hiring freeze has left his own supporters jobless and humiliated. Now, they’re begging him to fix the chaos he caused—and the irony is nothing short of divine. Grab some popcorn; it’s time for thy daily dose of schadenfreude.

I think Denmark just told DJT to GFY.🧐 From: @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social newsletter 01/27
