First Trump CUT OFF the British PM from speaking. Then, the Trump Admin called ME a moron. You gotta watch this!

#FreeLuigi 🤭🤣 #SheShed

Measles has killed a school age child. The child was not vaccinated. It has been 10 years since anyone has died from measles. It was eradicated in the US thru vaccines. But dangerous dopes like RFK Jr made money scaring ppl into not vaccinating their kids.

Hey Florida, lock down your teen girls. The Tates are back in town

THIS is how you write about the absurdity of this administration. It’s brilliant prose, full of irony and subtle humor, with a meticulous eye for the farcical details. No other approach could have adequately captured what happened in that room. All who chronicle this era should take note.

My first time on the front page of a newspaper was after a 10-hour shift firefighting. I was so dirty, my own mom didn’t recognize me. When I called her the next day she exclaimed, “That was YOU?!?” A story about the federal firings. 1/

State AG’s stepping up

Mike Slater survived four tours of duty as a US Army infantryman, risking his life in Iraq and Afghanistan. But that wasn’t enough to spare him from the budget ax now being recklessly wielded by DOGE at federal employees.

you literally wrote it down

I approve this message

This is just so heartbreaking.

I was assured that Gavin Newsom was toast (pun intended) politically after the LA fires. 52% of Californians (55% of likely voters) approve of how Governor Newsom is handling his job — (+8 from Oct 2024) Notably, approval of Newsom is HIGHEST IN LOS ANGELES (61%). www.ppic.org/publication/...

Let's do this! Small business only F the corporate capitalists

These measles deaths aren’t just chance things. There are people with blood on their hands.

This speech is the truth open.substack.com/pub/stevesch...

Prime Minister Starmer humiliates Donald Trump on live television. He shut him up and fact checked him mid sentence. Trump sat there shoulders slumped nodding his head. #StandWithUkraine

In addition to the needless suffering, wrecking the SSDI system has political implications that Trump & Musk haven't bothered to understand. That would be a far more significant problem for, say, West Virginia & Kentucky than for California & New Jersey. www.kff.org/other/state-...

I think Trump might’ve lost Dave.

Today's update: the big difference between the parties. One is working FOR Americans. One is working AGAINST us. For our adversaries. Here's what our pro-American leaders did today: #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory #Opposition

LAUREN BACALL: you just put your lips together and blow HUMPHREY BOGART: *holding nintendo cartridge* i know how to get it to work lauren

We fought for 7 years to get away from a king. The constitution is clear- Americans do not want a concentration of power. It is the division the separation of power - the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government - that prevents any one branch from becoming too powerful.

I know this ship has sailed but, as an editor taught me 15 years ago when I was guest-blogging for @theprospect.bsky.social , DOE refers to the Department of Energy. The Department of Education is abbreviated Ed.

A strong, independent media is essential in a free society. However, the oligarch controlled media is not going to protect us. The billionaires sitting on stage with Trump are not victims. They will profit from his lies and cannot be trusted to safeguard democracy.

A federal judge has ordered Trump admin officials involved in Elon Musk's "opaque" DOGE to testify under oath in one of the sprawling lawsuits seeking to block DOGE's access to sensitive government databases. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

I have NO sympathy whatsoever for MAGA business owners who enthusiastically voted for Trump but are whining like babies now that their federal contracts are being cancelled. I realize they only expected people they hate to get hurt, but guess what? Trump and Musk don’t care about people like you.

"This country has gotten bloated, fat, disgusting, and incompetently run," the 78-year-old McDonald's extreme enthusiast said.

Donald Trump SPOTTED in Jeffrey Epstein's personal address book. Full list of contacts here (this was already released in 2015 FYI): www.documentcloud.org/documents/15...

Trump is a one-man crime spree.

Auchincloss: Trump doesn’t have to face the voters again, so I understand what he's doing. He's trying to hook up all these billionaires who invested in his campaign. He owes them, but for the life of me, I can’t understand why Republicans are allowing Trump to frog-march them off the gangplank.

This is why they call us the “tolerant left” bc we aren’t prepared to watch elderly people starve to death.

I wonder if Vance shares his anti-immigrant views at the dinner table…

Jim Jordan always runs a tight ship.

I photographed Cleveland, Ohio tonight in the rain and this is what I got

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

In what world did Trump think it was a good idea to bring the sex trafficing Tate brothers into America? So we are importing criminals now? Must be getting really weird over on truth social

Filled up my tank today — all set to drive to another skin cancer surgery tomorrow. Not spending a penny tomorrow. #EconomicBlackout

God, take JoAnn's pain and give it to Hobby Lobby

Janet Gretzky posted a letter from Hockey Hall of Famer Bobby Orr regarding how "the haters" have gone after Wayne Gretzky following the 4 Nations Face-Off. Regarding Wayne, she said "it has broken his heart to read and see the mean comments."

The Trump administration gave fired federal workers only 15 minutes to vacate their offices. Our civil servants aren't the enemy. He is.

Same.

RIP Gene Hackman - One of the most influential screen actors ever. There was nothing he couldn’t do. His work was searingly truthful and often brutally honest -he never let you off the hook . Not afraid of ambiguity- a lost quality these days . Lucky & grateful to have share screen with him.

Warren: Elon, stop being such a coward. You claim to be for maximum transparency—so get out of your bunker and come face real questions.

NEW: senior spokesperson for the DoJ, 23-year civil servant, and disabled Marine Veteran RESIGNS citing a toxic and hostile work environment.

Trump isn’t Julius Caesar, he’s Nero.

When Australian sheep farmer Ben Jackson couldn't attend his Aunt's funeral due to Covid restrictions, he wanted to honor her in a memorable way. So, he laid out grain for his sheep in the shape of a heart, hoping "she could see it through the clouds" ❤️❤️❤️ 🔊 sound up for 🎶 📽️Ben Jackson
