Here's one of 3 important races that we need to try in. No more blue apathy.

A former Soviet intelligence officer alleges Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.” Alnur Mussayev served in the 6th Directorate, responsible for counter-intelligence support in the economy. One key objective was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.”

So, the House Republicans published their official budget resolution today, which, as expected, calls for gutting Medicaid/CHIP. As a reminder, nearly 80 million Americans rely on Medicaid/CHIP for their healthcare coverage...nearly half of whom are children. acasignups.net/25/01/30/psy...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Trump’s betrayal of Americans: He promised not to cut Medicaid—now he’s backing a House plan that slashes $880 billion from it. All to fund $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich. He doesn’t care if families drown in debt, as long as he & his billionaire buddies get richer. Don’t Cut My Medicaid!

Even if you’re not a Florida voter, this election affects you. A loss for MAGA Republicans in FL-01 means: • A weaker F47 agenda • Stronger protections for democracy, voting rights, & civil liberties • A step toward taking back the House in 2024 #Valimont4Congress www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

💯true.

@propublica.org with great reporting again on DOGE. DOGE is Schroedinger's organization according to the Trumpers: it both is and is not an agency, is and is not run by Elon, is and is not receiving federal funding. Propublica identified $40M in federal funding redirected to DOGE from agencies.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Yo DOGE, Found your waste! 👇🏼

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, ProPublica’s analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

In addition to Congress being the place that makes the laws, pretty key thing, the constitution explicitly says Congress gets to create the postal system. It’s not left implied that that comes under law making generally. The President has no power to unilaterally abolish it and move it to commerce.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Please note this is not a definitive listing. It’s merely a small sample. Democrats in the Senate are still trying to mitigate the damage Republicans are trying to cause with their budget. bsky.app/profile/book...

I just wanna congratulate @meidastouch.com for beating Joe Rogan, and thank them for recommending my Substack. Indie media FTW! Check theirs out here: www.meidasplus.com

DOGE is a major scam to reroute our taxpayer dollars to benefit the wealthy while our country is being run into the ground... like Trump businesses.🟠🤡

"While Elon Musk and his underlings demand budget cuts and layoffs across the federal government, funding for their agency — the Department of Government Efficiency — has soared to nearly $40 million, @propublica.org found" www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Fucking glorious.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

Hope.......

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist
