The top special agent overseeing the FBI’s largest field office has been forced to retire, according to an email he sent to colleagues and obtained by CNN.

“The people are what matter to government, and a government should aim to give all the people under its jurisdiction the best possible life.” Words from Frances Perkins, FDR's labor secretary and an architect of Social Security. Remember this as the program is under attack.

US suspends all military aid to Ukraine, reports say, in wake of Trump-Zelenskyy row

Leaders of the free world stand united in London The United States is not among them

Conan: You know, Anora is having a good night. That's great news. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian.

Trump cares more about a former KGB agent than you.

A reminder for these times.

If it walks like a Nazi, talks like a Nazi, and salutes like a Nazi… Keep the online pressure up, friends. And boycott Tesla. Find out more about local protests at teslatakedown.com

Outstanding ‼️

Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." This is absolute rubbish. Social Security has paid every benefit owed to every eligible American for 85 years. Perhaps the bigger "ponzi scheme" is the $38 billion spent by taxpayers to prop up his corporations?

Nailed it www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/o...

On February 26, 2022, when the USA offered evacuation from Kyiv, Zelensky said, "The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride." Today, Zelensky didn't need a ride either; he walked away.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Democracies stand with Ukraine.

In 2013, Trump tweeted that he wanted to be best friends with Putin. Nothing that happened today is a surprise. Trump has been looking to be Putin‘s wing man for a dozen years. This afternoon, he demonstrated his love for that tyrannical thug.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Yup.

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮 #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

And to think we could have had a sane, serious government run by an intelligent person who would have acted in the best interests of Americans, and not Vladimir Putin.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

A bill before the Missouri state Senate would introduce $1,000 rewards for people identifying undocumented immigrants who are then taken into custody. Opponents say it’s already spreading fear and changing the lives of both legally residing and undocumented immigrants: cnn.it/3QEaswU

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

9yrs ago, his presidential campaign colluded with Putin. 7yrs ago, he sided with Putin in Helsinki and gave his middle finger to our intelligence community. 6yrs ago, he was impeached for extorting Zelensky. None of this is surprising. Trump’s with Putin. He has always been.

Yes

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

That press conference was the most disgraceful act of betrayal I’ve ever seen.

Zelensky is a hero. Trump is a coward. Slava Ukraini.🇺🇦 Shame on America. NATO/freedom/democracy are good. Putin/Trump/authoritarianism are bad.

There was only one person acting presidential in the Oval Office today: Volodymyr Zelenskyy. He stood up to bullies in a Kremlin-style shakedown. What will it take to awaken the conscience of the country after such a shameful display?

We should be writing Project 2029—defining the society we want, clearly and publicly. Let’s start today.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

Musk is trying to downplay the chaos he’s creating by saying it’s much the same as the cost-cutting efforts of the Clinton administration. This is rubbish. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/musks-rubbish

NYT executive editor Joseph Kahn: “X is a cesspool for attacks.”
