Interesting how the mainstream press did not cover how embarrassing it was that 47 showed up at the Pope's funeral in a bright blue suit and he dozed off... sleepy Don.

This is very dangerous... trusting our safefy to a mad man who could turn it off any time. Talk about risk!... SpaceX is reportedly the favorite to build Trump’s “Golden Dome" Trump's proposed missile defense Per Reuters, SpaceX proposed creating a “subscription service” and wouldn't own it.

Senators from Virginia, Tim Kaine and Mark Warner continue to vote in favor of Maga nominees, enabling the Maga enterprise. Chamberlaine was wrong and so are they and the others who vote in favor.

The Passover story is moving towards freedom. The story doesn't end there, as we are charged to continue to make our world better. In our country today, we are charged with forming a more perfect union---that is being shattered today. So now, LO DAYENU, IT IS NOT ENOUGH…art work by Cindy Ostroff

Musk wants to rebuild the social security system in months... a process identified to take years. His cars fall apart, his rockets blow up... what could go wrong!

Today a court blocked co-Presidents Trump and Musk from shutting down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. This fight isn't over. The case will continue in court, and all of us need to keep fighting for the agency that has returned $21 billion to families who were scammed.

@aarpfoundation.bsky.social I am very disappointed by your lack of push on closing offices and firing people from Social Security and the lies this administration is putting forward, as well as cutting the funding for alzheimers and other diseases and AARP has not been in the front lines.

A new term for Republicans in Congress...MAGABOTS, as they do whatever 47 or Musk tell them to do, as they gladly destroy our democratic institutions.

The White House pastor, special employee of the government is selling health and more to you... everything is for sale as the funds for state health services have been cut as well as all our support for vaccinations worldwide-how many people we can kill! Here's the sales pitch, asking for $1,000!

Explain to me how, for Dr. Martin A. Makary's confirmation as FDA Commissioner, three Democrats—Senators Dick Durbin (Illinois), Maggie Hassan (New Hampshire), and Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire)—joined all Republicans.

As 47 continues to support whatever Putin wants, 47 and his biggest donor are crashing social security, shutting down all major medical studies, hiring a man who is not a doctor to conduct a study in how dangerous vaccines are, and more to destroy our democracy. We need to be loud!

Any Democrat who votes in favor of any of 47's appointees is acquiescencing to a non democratic USA with our institutions destroyed.

Republicans all lied. In allowing the cutting of staff and closing of offices and cutting the ability to use the phone for many issues they are attacking Social Security and they are silent. You know they lie when they open their mouths. And where is the outrage from the Dems?

We need Senator Schumer to make a clear statement about Paul Weiss law firm's capitulation to 47, as his brother is a partner.

I don't understand why our past president's, including #clinton #Obama #Biden #Bush are silent. Silence is acquiescence, which means they all support the total dismantling of our democracy.

@barackobama.bsky.social why are you so silent as our democracy is being destroyed? Your silence is acquiescence.

How do we address this? The Republicans are lying about the IRA, telling people to reject the "Biden Pill Penalty", saying this is raising the price of drug. IRA penalizes drugmakers for charging prices that rise faster than inflation for people on Medicare. Their lies are dangerous...

@maddow.msnbc.com can you explain why all past Presidents are silent...Bush, Clinton, Obama, Biden... as silence is acquiescence.

"My Starlink system.." How Musk talks about it, while denigrating Poland, and calling AZ Senator Mark Kelly a traitor, and Musk going into the FAA to replace approved FAA systems with Starlink? He could turn it off as he did to Ukraine. Making air travel unsafe as we become an ally of Russia.
