A Dem to my core, opposed to MAGA on a cellular level. “Both sides” me at your peril. Stronger together.

Saturday cappuccino.

I know this officially marks me as an old person, but I still find it weird whenever I see two people hanging out in a public place occasionally pause their conversation to play around with their phones, then resume as if nothing happened.

BREAKING: International terrorist Erik Prince gives away the entire game, admits that the dismantling of USAID was to provide a “demand signal” for “the private market,” e.g. Blackwater. Transnational organized crime, right out loud. Revolution will be necessary.

UPDATE: Meta is continuing to censor anti-Musk ads. It has removed a Facebook ad calling for a boycott of Tesla, saying that it violates the company's policy on "unacceptable business practices" muskwatch.com/subscribe

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

New: Trump’s investigation into the criminal cases brought against him and others during the Biden admin will be overseen by a group of “weaponization group” lawyers at DOJ who are beset by a tangle of possible conflicts @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The family values party.

Some updates: 1. A federal judge extended a restraining order blocking the National Institutes of Health from cutting research funds until she rules on a permanent injunction. 2. The IRS will not allow a member of Elon Musk’s team to access individual tax returns.

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

This is on us. He told us during the campaign he was gonna purge the military, the DOJ, the FBI, and the intelligence community of people loyal to the law & the Constitution, and replace them with people loyal only to him. He told us he was gonna do this. And we still elected him. This is on us.

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Imagine my surprise when Babymama #4 showed up looking for her loot from the Ketamine King.

It’s getting to be that hitching rides on the side of the highway is safer than flying.

Psst! I knew Bannon was a Nazi before the salute.

Remember: politicians work for YOU. Don’t let them forget that.

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Just watched Zero Day on Netflix and, as always, the fiction I see in the movies where government insiders hatch nefarious plots just can’t compare to the metric tons of bullshit spilling out of Trump et al. The closest things to match reality are docs on Nazi Germany.

“The risks are staggering: identity theft, fraud, and political targeting. Once your data is exposed, it’s virtually impossible to undo the damage.” I can truly say that our government is betraying us and putting all Americans in harms way. This must stop. www.nbcnews.com/tech/securit...

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Three updates: 1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

Mark my words—He is going to try to shut down mail-in voting. When he does, we will sue and we will win. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

A reminder I will be providing at least once a month for all of the remaining years of my life: Months before the 2024 election, the Department of Justice announced that there were at least six hundred Russian assets inside the United States and that some...were SITTING MEMBERS OF CONGRESS.

— 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.

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

"Behind the seemingly scatter-shot opening acts of his second administration, legal analysts see a common goal: to test a once-fringe legal theory which asserts that the president has unlimited power to control the actions of the four million people who make up the executive branch." --Jacob Knutson

RFK Jr.’s CDC just pulled a flu vaccine campaign in the middle of the worst flu season in 30 years. 29 million illnesses, 370,000 hospitalizations, and 16,000 deaths—including nearly 70 children. Public health shouldn't be political. Get vaccinated.

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

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.

I mean, who *didn’t* know by the end of November 5th that Ukraine’s days were numbered?

Chris Murphy: "My prediction is that if you vote for Kash Patel, more than any other confirmation vote you make, you will come to regret this one to your grave."

Last night I attended the Save Our Services rally in New York City. Listen to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) fighting for people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” @aoc.bsky.social
