Ukraine was warned it faced an imminent shutdown of Elon Musk’s vital Starlink satellite internet system unless it signed the extortion deal on rare earth minerals, Reuters reports.

NBC News obtained a letter from acting U.S. Attorney for SDNY Danielle Sassoon to AG Pam Bondi, written before Sassoon’s resignation, stating that Adams’ attorneys proposed “what amounted to a quid pro quo”—offering to help the Trump administration in exchange for dropping the criminal case

is the goal merit or is the goal segregation?

NEW: DOJ files a notice of correction indicating that (1) it underestimated the number of USAID employees placed on leave; and (2) misstated that only future contracts were being frozen, when existing contracts were frozen as well. I suspect the judge will not be happy. www.democracydocket.com

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is *on its face* a violation the equal protection of the laws.

Jill Stein’s campaign manager just admitted what anyone with half a brain knew all along—their real mission was to help elect Donald Trump. Fu*k Jill Stein and anyone who supported her

The stock market is tanking, egg prices are at an all-time high, and the U.S. is growing weaker and more isolated—but hey, at least he can stage a fake “You’re fired!” moment for Joe Biden to keep the base entertained.

is it woke to want to end cancer?

Apologies if we're posting a lot today but there's a lot going on and we have to stay on top of it. This new Secretary of the Interior is a catastrophe for our last remaining wild places.

Was out hiking for a few hours and just saw this. www.yahoo.com/news/trump-a... PS Our policy is we don't show that goon's face on our page.

Ooof! Mexico, Canada and Wall Street call Trump's Tariff bluff. NOW he wants to talk to Canada, delay tariffs on Mexico for a month and Wall Street is telling him real time his tariffs are "dumb". Ahh, the price of eggs, cars, avocados...

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

Trump and Rubio just appointed this guy as the acting Undersecretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs at the State Department. Beattie was fired from the first Trump administration after it was revealed that he had attended a white nationalist conference.

Support independent media.

honestly think some of the hesitation here is that no one wants to sound like a crank. i was talking at an event last night and even i felt like a crank while i was speaking!

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

It is astonishing that mainstream media is covering this like it is a shruggie vibe 🤷‍♂️

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you

Republicans want you to hit your kids instead of giving them health care

Trump is attacking the FBI and his supporters use the rationale that it’s necessary because people no longer trust the FBI - conveniently ignoring that people don’t trust the FBI because Trump and his ppl have spent years attacking it

if a major politician held an emergency rally about the current ongoing coup by the richest man in the world, I think people would go to it. Shit is well and truly fucked. I can think of a couple of people who should do that right now.

The following pages have been removed from the CDC website. This used to be known as censorship. Not sure what the new word is.

really weird how Trump fired everyone at the Airline Safety Committee and the Elon forced the head of the FAA to quit, and then planes started falling out of the sky. it's almost as if actions had consequences

So beyond disgusting , he does not have an empathetic bone in his body

they are stealing data from the american people and depriving us of the transparency that we are entitled to by law. none of this is legal and not a single federal employee has any reason to comply.

This is exactly why we all need to support independent media.

Ronald Reagan: “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.”

We are ready to help pave a path for lower medication and healthcare costs for taxpayers journals.lww.com/fpmrs/fullte...

There's already too few Rangers in the park. Dangerously few. Trump wants to cut $587 million from the NPS budget. (17%). This means our national parks will be even more vulnerable to poaching. Get in this fight and help us defend our parks Follow us at @altyellonatpark.org Retweet & Repeat

Meanwhile in Russia, top Kremlin propagandist Vladimir Solovyov & others on Russian state TV can’t hide their excitement about “their boy and girl,” Kash Patel & Tulsi Gabbard, becoming the Director of the FBI & Director of National Intelligence in the US

Trump doesn't care if the economy crashes and communities suffer. His goal is to force you and your family to accept a lower standard of living while he and his friends get richer. Cutting support for law enforcement, schools, small businesses and firefighters is chaos by design.
