Trump: “I’m not a big fan of ‘The Atlantic’’ No shit Sherlock, you can’t read

Let's give it the attention it deserves. Jessica Aber was likely stalked and assassinated.

There is no point in Senate Democrats voting to fund the government only to let Trump and Musk do whatever they see fit with those funds. Dems should only vote for a continuing resolution if it stops DOGE pillaging and fully funds services. Call your Dem Senator 202-224-3121

🚨 NEW: We just launched a one-click email tool to contact all Democratic Senators who are still undecided on the CR. Contact them and tell them to vote NO here ⬇️ win.newmode.net/votersoftomo...

☎️ Call these Democrats who are either yes votes on cloture and the CR, leaning towards yes, or strangely silent. Call them constantly today at 202-224-3121 & tell them to vote NO! -Fetterman -Schumer -Gillibrand -Peters -King -Shaheen -Hassan -Rosen -Cortez Masto -Durbin -Klobuchar -Schatz -Hirono

Only takes 23 Senate Democrats to remove Chuck Schumer from leadership and replace him with someone willing to fight

We don't take an oath to a king, or a dictator. March 14th! It's a movement for you. 3 days left! see you in Washington! #NowDC #14thNOW #14thAmendent

Posted by @1goodtern.bsky.social: “I think it's worth saying this again: If you're an American general today and you're being asked to work on invasion plans for any other country -Canada Mexico Panama Greenland- you need to walk to your nearest microphone and start talking right now.”

A favor to ask: my book proposal goes out to publishers early next month. If you want to read the story that I’ve never told, can you please help me get to 100k followers by April 1? Thank you! 🙏

The scale of corruption being perpetrated right now is almost beyond the limits of imagination. This is just one example, almost certainly not the greatest.

“…the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” - FDR, 1938

Things you should know about Musk's desire to own EVERYTHING and control the narrative of "Free Speech." In April 2023, Elon Musk proposed acquiring... 1/3

The White House, not even DHS, the White House itself apparently, is directly deciding which permanent residents should be detained and deported based on their political speech. If this doesn’t scare you about the state of our democracy and liberties, I don’t know what will.

Fewer students will be able to attend college because of Donald Trump. All while his friends at Mar-a-Lago use that money to enrich themselves.

Is your smart TV committing crime? New research shows at least a million inexpensive Android devices—from TV streaming boxes to tablets—have been infected with sneaky malware that conscripts them into a scammer-controlled botnet.

Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop them from forming. Keep up the fight.

New internet restrictions at the embattled SSA have cut off access to WIRED, along with other “general news” websites like The Washington Post and The New York Times.

I honestly don’t hate the picture of all the Chicago cops protecting Tesla because showing a bunch of armed agents of the state openly enforcing Elons will is revealing the truth of our situation much more clearly than anything protestors could show

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

In response to a post on X from @maxwellfrost.bsky.social showing the effort to get into the Department of Education building this morning, Elon Musk replied, "No such department exists in the federal government"

Some federally funded community health centers — which serve rural areas with limited access to medical care — are still unable to access grant funding and are shutting down because of Trump's spending freeze. We are witnessing an attack on America's most vulnerable people.

Now get them escorted out of the building and confiscate their hard drives and external drives.

Having covered Tesla when it first started I can say unequivocally that company would never have existed without government subsidies. NPR on the other hand gets 98-99% of its revenue from non-governmental sources. But go off, Goebbels.

Elon Musk, that avatar or arrogance, is trashing the US Constitution. Trumpers, is this what you voted for? An end to America?

The point about Trump’s deranged comments about Gaza is that we’re wasting precious seconds talking about Trump’s deranged comments about Gaza and not unelected Elon Musk’s coup to dismantle our government.

My Kind of Town! ♥️

Folks, this is a five alarm fire. Congress must stop Trump and Elon's coup. Call your rep now (202) 224-3121 This isn't just a battle for checks and balances. It's a battle between democracy and dictatorship.

It’s a coup. Musk and his gang are breaking laws. They should be arrested. This is not complicated.

THIS is what fighting back looks like! 👏 Democrats are planning to hold the Senate floor all night tonight to try and stop the confirmation of Project 2025 architect and OMB nominee Russell Vought. REPOST if you support their efforts!

We, via our chosen representatives, created US AID, the Department of Education, the Department of Labor, NIH, and NOAA. Any action to shut or defund them disregards our will and is a direct attack on our role and power as voters. It’s a coup. We’re the target.

So all of you folks who swore to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, where you at? I guess those were just words.
