How is this our actual lives?

It's crazy that no one has taken advantage of this.

Always get your kids books. 💥

It’s not a joke. We need to take it seriously. This is the same man who repeatedly refused to commit to accepting the results of an election if he lost. People who were shocked when he made good on that in 2020 should not have been, and we must not be now. joycevance.substack.com/p/trumps-thi...

The director of national intelligence and the director of the department of Defense used this app that the CIA already warned us about. I'm not an attorney but could the AG of California find a reason to charge them? #USDemocracy

Please 🙏 Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, Mike Waltz keep the nuclear codes off social media. Just asking for a small favor.🚀

Read. This. Story. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc... (One of many sub-themes: It is too bad that Insane Clown Posse is already taken as a name, because that's the title these people are earning every day. But this episode is genuinely amazing.)

I regret to inform you that it is once again time to photograph pages of Agamben’s “State of Exception”

Did Putin sign the cease fire agreement yet? Because Trump said if he didn’t sign it right away he was going to really teach him a lesson. Any updates from the Kremlin?

The GOP budget is a handout to billionaires. But it comes at the expense of our vets! We won't let them get away with it. Stand up for those who served! #RepublicanCutsHurtVeterans

History DOES repeat itself… 🤬

Heh

CASTLE OF THE ROCK France 🇨🇵

Reminder: Amazon Blackout—starting tomorrow. Amazon ❌, Whole Foods ❌ off the to-do list!

Yummy #EU news! 🍁 Lindt Chocolates will now supply all its chocolate to #Canada directly from Europe, instead of through its USA factories. This helps avoid extra #tariffs, making it cheaper to bring chocolate from Europe than from the U.S. #TradeSmart 🇨🇦🇪🇺🌍

I am wondering since the 🍊menace canceled telehealth from Medicare. If older rural elderly can file a lawsuit that this is elder abuse?. It is elder abuse. It makes their lives harder & the ability to get their meds.

Sanders: 1 Percent Has Sapped $79T in Wealth From Bottom 90 Percent Since 1975

Does Mike Johnson know that if Trump and Vance are both impeached and found guilty, then he becomes President.

He promised he would lower the cost of housing, groceries and other necessities. He promised cheaper eggs. He promised, promised.. But the president is not known for his honesty. Just the opposite: He is notorious for stiffing people and reneging on contracts. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/01/o...

My problem is not so much when members of Congress, from other districts, vote for things I don't agree with. That's part of the political process. It's when they abdicate their jobs as Congress and allow the executive to make arbitrary decrees like a king. That's a path we don't come back from.

A reminder for these times.

Sign of the day…

The world stands with Ukraine 🇺🇦 except Trump, JD Vance and Vladimir Putin.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social, your segment today with @marcelias.bsky.social, @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social, & @postbaron.bsky.social was the best single segment I’ve seen since the election. Bravo! Get them all back! Elias had a brilliant rant, Marty Baron isn’t on often, & Ruth is always on point.

I am aghast that anyone thinks Russia will keep any agreement around Ukraine at all. I am constantly shocked at how little many otherwise smart people actually learn from the past.
