What happens if the courts can't stop the Trump Administration? “Then we’ve got to take to the streets in a different way,” Anthony Romero, the executive director of the A.C.L.U., tells David Remnick. “We've got to shut down this country.”

FWIW, some ideas about how the potential loss of U.S. climate/environmental data might impact near-real time Arctic climate science. Latest post from the Alaska and Arctic Climate Newsletter. alaskaclimate.substack.com/p/arctic-cli... #akwx #Arctic #Climate

In 2020, the military was adamant about refusing to get involved in the election. That's why Trump hates General Mark Milley so much. Now, Trump is transforming the military into one that will back him up in 2029. We need to figure out how to prepare for that eventuality.

When these inaccuracies were first found, they could be called "mistakes." When DOGE took efforts to cover them up, they can no longer be considered "mistakes."

Have you made your call yet? I called my senator yesterday. Was hard to not cry while I was doing it- but I did it anyway!

Proud our senator is finding her voice! #senatorlisamurkowski

J.D. Vance and Elon Musk’s efforts to help the AfD party win the German election goes beyond trolling liberals, writes Peter Wehner. “They see in the AfD an undiluted version of MAGA.”

FUN FACT: maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority AND The resistance is the MAJORITY! We will defeat you as your only plan is destroying our country while lining your pockets. Keep flooding the zone. We’re watching & we will win!!

March 4th- next protest! Make your signs now. Let all your cohorts know!!!

The case, brought by attorneys general in 22 states and the District of Columbia, represents a pivotal test for the administration as it pursues a dramatic review of government spending priorities.

"No matter DOGE’s goal, putting so much information in one place and under the control of a small group of people with little government experience has raised substantial security concerns," Matteo Wong writes in the Atlantic Intelligence newsletter:

As Trump empowers Russia and the far right, he is laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/feb/20/trump-musk-oligarchy-russia-far-right

Amen to that.

Pay attention to this. Replacing JAGs with loyalists enables whatever orders Trump and Hegseth issue to be interpreted as lawful.

Remarkable: Trump's own pollster just found that in swing House districts, Dems lead by 5 points and voters want tax policy to prioritize working people, per Politico. Yet GOP is about to brutally slash the safety net and give the rich huge tax cuts! New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1918...

200 million dollars of waste.

What if your mom was diagnosed with breast cancer & Medicaid could have saved her life, but Republicans cut it? This isn't just a budget cut, it's a death sentence for thousands of mom's... Don't Cut Medicaid Call 866-426-2631 & tell Congress to keep their hands off Medicaid!

He nails it.

I think it would make a big difference in our health if we banned Pharma ads from America like the rest of the world does.

This month, @karenhao.bsky.social spoke with more than a dozen federal workers who described how the Trump administration is pushing a new ideology and stoking paranoia. “People are terrified,” one source said, “not for losing their jobs but for losing democracy.”

For those at the back…

For more than 20 years I been proud to call myself a University of Alaska alumnus. No more. I ashamed and embarrassed by this cowardly dictum. Note the opening sentence violates section 2. #UAF #Alaska

The Maine Principal's Association said it would continue to allow trans girls to compete in school sports, saying President Trump's recent executive order is in conflict with state law.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

“Shortly after Friday’s exchange, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) announced that it launched a Title IX violation investigation into Maine’s Department of Education and one of its school districts.”

We’ve two major bar associations stand united recently. Where are the American psychologists that amass, and insist They get their mental health checked?

The elephant in the room: Why has no one requested (demanded)?! that both Trump and Musk get a mental health evaluation? Someone explain:

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Breaking news: President Trump abruptly dismissed the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in a social media post, delivering a blow to the military’s top brass as the Trump administration moves to align the Pentagon with its “America First” agenda.

1 in 5 Americans DEPEND on Medicaid. I depend on the program as do millions of others of people with disabilities, seniors, children, low-income and many vulnerable populations. Any major cuts to the program would be devastating and catastrophic. www.kff.org/medicaid/iss...

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.
