“Why does the world’s richest man, now serving as the de facto president of the United States, care about a single judicial election in a state that is home to less than 2% of the U.S. population?...the answer can be summed up in the form of his biggest fear: accountability.” New from Ben Wikler

here is the thing about the “argument” that democrats should have run roughshod over the law when they had the chance: it is much easier to break the law to destroy a program than break the law to create one.

Trump and Musk want to rob Americans blind. Rep. Joe Neguse and Jen Rubin discuss the proposed $800 billion budget cut—targeting nearly all social safety new programs.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

Support Ukraine by pressuring your republican representatives to do something instead of bend over for our Russian-tied "president" Trump has implied that it's Zelenskyy who is the dictator... and doesn't want Ukraine at the table for peace talks. Say something! www.senate.gov/senators/sen...

Who is the dictator? Trump: "I have an Article II, where I have the right to do whatever I want as president." Zelenskyy: "I do not want my picture in your offices. Hang your kids' photos instead, and look at them each time you make a decision." Who truly serves the people, who serves themselves?

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?

submitted 3 days ago • 5047 comments

Of course. But being the party standing up for those fired will mean a lot to those fired and their families. It will also show the country that they are trying to bring order to chaos. And if they can get any Republican support at all, that's huge leverage for March 14

🚨 Elon Musk is trying to buy another election. The Wisconsin Supreme Court race is just over a month away, and Musk will spend over half a million dollars to support a MAGA extremist who wants to enforce a 175-year-old abortion ban. We can't match Musk's money but we have the power of the people. 🧵

Trump tells Zelenskyy to “move fast” on peace talks—or risk losing Ukraine altogether. Meanwhile, the U.S. and Russia are negotiating without Ukraine at the table. Zelenskyy fires back: “We understand that [Trump’s rhetoric] is coming from Russia.” Is Trump pushing peace, or Putin’s playbook?
