Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is at the center of a new controversy—not with political opponents, but with Grok, the artificial intelligence chatbot developed by Elon Musk’s X.

The Republicans in Congress could remove Donald Trump any minute they wanted to. Blame them. Tell them to get rid of him. There is no daylight between the Republican Party and Donald Trump.

If it’s Sunday, there must be sauce.

I still wear my mask at work every day because I cannot control how close people get to me. COVID is NOT gone. Why does anyone care of I choose to wear a mask?

Staff departures and survey cuts are roiling the federal agency in charge of producing census results, job numbers and other key statistics as Trump officials continue to slash the U.S. government. From @hansilowang.bsky.social

Our DOGE tracker is updated with a whole slew of new names, and now you can filter by agency to see which of the DOGErs have been where. Great work by @williamturton.bsky.social, @chrisbing.bsky.social, @kirstenberg.bsky.social and others! projects.propublica.org/elon-musk-do...

Sue Trump and Elon are completely destroying our nation

The Trump administration just ordered social media vetting of all visa applicants who have been to the Gaza strip for any length of time since 2007, per diplomatic cable leaked to me: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/trump-admi...

“We have a system of checks and balances. A tyrant can always be stopped as long as congress has a spine.” Congress:

Does anyone know who makes these dog toys? My dog loves them, but we got them so long ago, we don’t know what they’re called.

sometimes I feel like a dinosaur, cause no one looks anything up anymore 🦕

Notice to all corporations: if you try to pass the cost of tariffs on to me I will "pass" on buying your product. As far as I'm concerned this is a "you problem"

Justice over-serves the wealthy and underserves the common good.

I so wish the judge would respond: "Listen Assholes: I have jurisdiction over YOU. And if you don't do as I order, those guys in El Salvador won't be the only ones in jail. Now, hop to it."

Attention White House: Thou shalt not joke about how you sent an innocent father of 3 to a gulag while his autistic son smells his shirts to remember him.

In case you were wondering.

Republicans in Congress are hoping you won’t pay attention to them for the next 36 hours. Why? Because they're pushing through their unpopular plan that gives tax handouts to billionaires and billionaire corporations and leaves everyone else in the dirt. youtube.com/shorts/RZ-nl...

Today's stock market crash was the worst since the Spring of 2020. Can you guess who was president during *both* crashes? I bet you can!

This keeps getting worse and worse.

Elon Musk promised he would eliminate the nearly $2 trillion budget deficit in year one. But DOGE won’t just fall short of Musk’s deficit-reduction goals, Jonathan Chait writes. It will, in all probability, increase the deficit—by a lot. theatln.tc/HHz6dJrj

"highly technical conversations with colleagues at other government agencies involving sensitive military positions and powerful weapons systems relating to an ongoing conflict..." www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Kill a white millionaire, get the death penalty. Kill two black protesters, get invited to CPAC to be celebrated.

Our bloated mongrel of a president doesn’t like this portrait hanging in the Colorado state house. You know what to do…please share this far and wide! #fucktrump

Seeing is believing…👇 Enjoy. The. Tyranny. 😎✨

Porsha Ngumezi was killed by Texas’ abortion ban after doctors refused her a D&C to treat the miscarriage she suffered at 11 weeks gestation. She leaves behind a husband and two sons. www.cbsnews.com/news/grievin...

Sanders: Our life expectancy is about four years less than in other wealthy countries. If you’re working class in America, you live 7-8 years shorter than people who are wealthy. Now, why is that? The answer is not just healthcare. But it is the day-to-day stress that working people live under.

Not surprisingly, Trump’s overall tax and tariff proposals would make the very rich much richer and working families poorer. If you earn less than $360,000 a year, your taxes are going to go way up. If you’re in the top 1%? Don’t worry. You’ll save big.

"I think Epstein is one of those people who truly knew Donald Trump, knew many secrets about Donald Trump, and was threatening to Donald Trump."

What do @schumer.senate.gov and @fetterman.senate.gov have in common…besides voting with the MAGA republicans? They’re both soooooo concerned about the state of our country/government that they’re going out on book tours.

The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money. He was not dead.

First spring has arrived in NW Pennsyltucky. Second winter is due to arrive on Monday.

US Rep Mike Kelly (PA) isn’t just an asshole…he’s a chickenshit asshole. www.yourerie.com/news/local-n...

Meanwhile, real working families are already being punished and, thanks to your spineless vote, will continue to be punished by the Felon and his Nazi regime. But, on the bright side, at least you’ll probably get another invitation to hang with Krasnov at the Florida Kremlin.

Every single one of them needs to be primaried by a real democrat/progressive with an actual fucking spine. @fetterman.senate.gov
