Dumbest possible timeline

Trump hires from Fox News because it is, basically, all he knows. It's not as if the simpleminded fool reads anything or cares about people enough to get to know them if they don't flatter him on Fox News. Outside of the World of Fox, he is bored and lost.

“I am directing the Bureau of Prisons to use all 850 Joann locations to house America’s most ruthless and violent Offenders,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social theonion.com/trump-v...

"Nobody watches you anymore. You have no credibility," Trump snapped at CNN's Kaitlan Collins.

Twitter is down. Tesla stock is plummeting. SpaceX’s rocket imploded. All owned by the same guy who’s now in charge of our federal government.

I’ve been targeted for death in a bomb threat received at the Principles First Summit where I spoke today. To be clear, I’ve been threatened by far more capable people during my career. It won’t stop my advocacy for democracy and the Constitution: x.com/Acosta/statu...

US Forest Service and National Park Service to fire thousands of workers

A 24-year-old transgender man from Minnesota who had been missing since December was subjected to violence and torture before his body was found last week in a field in New York, the authorities said. Five people were arrested in connection with his death and charged with murder, the police said.

I hath written a poem for Tulsi Gabard. Butt kissing decorum dissing antique honey pot Vapid lying Russian spying DEI afterthought hand-wringing shit-flinging hair so ick and skunky Cold-ass lies Dead-ass eyes Putin's latest flunkie

The Russians are celebrating, and our allies are horrified. Honestly, I don’t see how our allies can trust us and share sensitive intelligence with Tulsi Gabbard as DNI.

This former US Atty supports the courage of Danielle Sassoon, the acting US Atty in SDNY, who put service ahead of self & refused to let politics interfere with prosecutions. True American hero. Thank you for your service, Danielle. You are the best of us. Who's with me?

NEW: GOP senators on the Judiciary Committee just voted to approve the nomination of Kash Patel to head the FBI. They ignored so many red flags that previously would've sunk such a nominee. Here's a long list of what they sidestepped. And...it's a partial list. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

🚨 Flood Watch issued February 13 at 12:06PM PST until February 14 at 10:00PM PST by NWS Sacramento CA 🚨 Additional Details Here.

Education Department employees on probation were abruptly dismissed without cause across the department this morning. Staff have been warned that more layoffs are coming.

Of course the Democrats will be going to Houston to find and interview voters who were laid off , to ask them what their expectations of the new administration were and how they feel they are doing at the moment. And posting here and everywhere. Right ?

Wednesday’s inflation report was mostly bad news. Here’s what to know.

As fire season approaches, thousands of additional firefighters are typically hired for seasonal crews. Now Trump’s reckless hiring freeze is a putting lives, homes, and entire communities at risk. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

Hey @washingtonpost.com you say your new Kash Patel story has "not previously been reported." Wrong, we at @motherjones.com scooped you and had this out earlier today. www.motherjones.com/politics/202... Feel free to correct.

Not All Klansmen Wear Hoods

Outrageous.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: So here’s how it’s going to go down—this is going to be very rough. But the big wake-up call is for our American friends. For example, Kentucky—the number one purchaser of Kentucky spirits in the world is Canada, and all our provinces have just pulled it off the shelves.

The president implied that the crash was caused by the FAA's recruitment of people with "severe intellectual disabilities" and "psychiatric problems."

President #DonaldTrump on Thursday warned off #BRICS member countries from replacing the U.S. dollar as a reserve currency by repeating a 100%-tariffs threat he had made weeks after winning the November presidential elections. www.thehindu.com/news/interna...

Trump is offering all federal workers a buyout with seven months’ pay to shrink the government—but that’s not the whole story. Reports reveal some employees are being pressured to resign or face termination under the guise of organizational restructuring. In short: take the buyout or be fired.

#NeverForget

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration. Big mistake. Huge.

Pete Hegseth is the most unqualified nominee for Secretary of Defense in modern history. He should be rejected by the Senate.

Dear price of eggs Trump voters, Not only aren’t they any cheaper, there’s an actual shortage because of the raging Bird Flu we’re not getting any public information about because the food safety & public health agencies responsible for that shit have basically been shut down. Bravo.

Know your rights. Knowledge is power.

“Since we broke news about Acosta's uncertain fate, CNN has seen its viewership numbers spike during the 10am hour when he anchors. In fact, on Wednesday, he out-rated every CNN show, including those in prime time, save for Cooper’s program.”

The joke is on us.

BREAKING 🔥🔥🔥 Oh look! Pete Hegseth’s tattoo. Sported by Proud Boys in DC yesterday and Christian Nationalists!

Welcome. The waters warm!
