Trump’s “Freedom Cities” are part of a tech billionaire-backed plan to replace democracy with corporate rule. It’s called The Network State, and it’s already underway. Got 5 minutes? Here's what you need to know www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCj_...

Rugged individualism powered by $461,000 in farm subsidies. www.salon.com/2015/01/22/jo...

David Brooks, a conservative columnist speaks about the amount of people who have died directly as a result of cuts to USAID by Doge. Over 55,000 adults, 6,000 children just from AIDS. That’s a total of 300,000 who have died due to Doge’s cuts. It’s only been four months.

I know some of you may do this anyway, but I nonetheless urge you NOT to send items like these to the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia, 601 D St. NW, Washington, DC 20530. Please do NOT do that. Thank you.

To be clear: the Trump administration is trying to send migrants to Libya specifically *because* of their gross human rights record - not in spite of it. They want people to be afraid to come here, so they’re sending them to the worst places they can find.

staffers are still cleaning up the Kristi Noem mess after she got gutted/filleted by @chrismurphyct.bsky.social this is A MOMENT. #MustWatch 🧢 @trumpfile.org

Dr. Carla Hayden has served as Librarian of Congress with honor and distinction, bringing our prized institution to new heights.   Trump’s outrageous, politically-motivated move to fire her is despicable. The Library of Congress belongs to the American people — NOT to Trump.

🛑Time for us to demand they change their decision on the President’s immunity! 🛑

I’ve just posted this video message to members of the DC Bar, urging them to vote *AGAINST* AG Pam Bondi’s brother to be its next president. Please pass this on to anyone who is eligible to vote. www.instagram.com/reel/DIcQFxt...

😂😂 this totally made my day!

#fucktrump

Moment of clarity today in the Senate where Republicans sided with big banks & against customers. Higher fees, lower transparency. Now it goes to the House - so call your Member of Congress to ask how they’ll vote!

No one ever said they were creative.

Reminder: When a person or institution you hate is targeted for illiberal persecution by an aspiring authoritarian, you have to defend them EVEN IF you don't like them. It doesn't matter if you don't like campus protestors or Columbia or the law firms. We must defend them or we're all at risk next.

Just a thought here but if you don’t want someone to steal your Social Security check, maybe get a ring camera and also don’t elect a convicted felon

BREAKING - Trump repeats another MASSIVE lie - claiming that US has spent $350 billion on Ukraine and Europe only $100 billion WRONG - here are the real numbers: US - $114 billion Europe - $132 billion

Social Security isn't sending checks to dead people over 120. Tariffs aren't beautiful, but they are raising prices on groceries, beer, and cars. Elon Musk is taking away veterans' healthcare and childcare for families. Presidents are supposed to be truth-tellers, not liars.

I always think back to that 2016 Hillary ad in which a piano salesman in New Jersey got stuffed by Trump and had to settle for a fraction of what he was owed because he couldn’t afford litigation whyy.org/articles/new...

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

Lauren Boebert is so dumb she could throw herself on the ground and miss.
