The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

Exactly 😡

Secret Service: $7M to $10M. Air Travel and Motorcade: $4M-5M. Stadium Security Upgrades: Additional metal detectors, bomb sweeps, security checkpoints: $2M. Local Law Enforcement: Overtime & personnel: $1M. Trump's Super Bowl attendance: $15 to $20M. Where’s DOGE?

Typical result of Trump research funding elimination. Reposting from FB with my friends permission 😢 Orange man and Apartheid President need to be stopped now!

Rep. Jamie Raskin: "We don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk.'" Way to go, Jamie! 👏 Thanks, @reallyamerican.bsky.social

Just saying.

DEI pays off. That's what's up.

Higher costs, smaller paychecks, disappearing jobs #MAGAnomics

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

This is a national emergency:

Musk’s allies were granted access to the U.S. Treasury payment system. Treasury stays silent. White House stays silent. Why the secrecy? Time for an explanation and full transparency.

CNN's Jim Acosta signing off: "I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too." I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too. Pass it on.

Are you paying ATTENTION, yet? 👇 Well, are you?!

Trump cut off aid to Ukraine and is driving a wedge between us and the EU, exactly what Putin would want. The Greenland stuff is a distraction.

Follow the money, especially when tRump is involved. Thanks, @rbreich.bsky.social

Never forget that Elon Musk also hates women This is from yesterday

Pritzker: "President Trump ought to be calling that out. If he doesn't agree with Elon Musk, if he doesn't agree with two Sieg Heils at his own rally and backing a party that backs Nazis, then he ought to say so. Why isn't Donald Trump speaking out?

Welcome to project 2025. Turns out, we weren’t overreacting. www.cleveland.com/news/2025/01...

Sen. John Barrasso is fine with Trump illegally firing inspectors general: "Well, sometimes inspector generals don't do the job that they are supposed to do. Some of them deserve to be fired, and the president is gonna make wise decisions on those."

Everyone was warned about this, and it’s happening just as we feared.

E-M-P-A-T-H-Y Spread it around!

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

And THAT is the ultimate game plan!

Hold the fuck on a second… Are you telling me that the same damn ammosexual assholes who were shooting up “woke” beer cans, burning Barbie dolls and boycotting Targets over rainbow fucking flags, are now referring to Donald Trump as their daddy?

Trump's first week: The Real Story open.substack.com/pub/robertre... Very good and informative. Take the time to read it and forward it to as many as you can

The kid from Scranton who kicked the ass of the bully from Queens is giving his farewell address tonight.

Elizabeth Warren: "It's safe to assume that when he says he has never disparaged women in the military, he's just trying to see what he can get away with. Because we've got the video, we've got him in print what he has just said as recently as November of 2024."

This is election interference. Leon was manipulating Twitter to benefit 🟠. I had 185K followers on Twitter and not even a tiny fraction of the interaction I had here when I only had 5K followers. Leon suppressed the left and amplified BS from the right. You should read this article.
