The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

To the @GOP senators and Congressmen who claim to support Ukraine, you do have some power… if you’re unwilling to exercise it then don’t pretend to care about your country more than your political career:

Trump is a Russian stooge. Putin may as well written this himself. And any Republican in Congress who said they support our allies before, but are silent today over this, are worthless.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

COLLINS: You wrote in fall 2023 that "Putin is to blame like Al-Qaeda was to blame for 9/11." Do you still feel that way or do you share the president's assessment as he says Ukraine is to blame? WALTZ: Well it shouldn't surprise you that I share the president's assessment on all kinds of issues

New York’s governor says prison workers are being arrested today on murder charges in the death of an inmate who was beaten while handcuffed. The beating of Robert Brooks by multiple officers in December was caught on body cameras, triggering widespread outrage and calls for justice.

In the wealthiest nation on earth, 25% of seniors should not be living on $15,000 a year or less. We should EXPAND Social Security, not cut it. I will soon be introducing legislation to significantly raise Social Security benefits and extend the solvency of the program.

I kinda like this and think it sorta works. Can we make it stick?

Trump is surrendering America. Trump is the opposite of strong. He is a tiny, weak, small, scared, trembling, sissy, husk of a man. There is nothing manly about his fat, sweaty, smelly, gross, makeup'ed self An absolute joke

Psychopath.

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Wholesale price for a dozen large white eggs is on the version of hitting $8, per USDA data.

“The official DOGE Facebook page started harassing me on my personal Facebook account after I criticized Tesla and Twitter … Less than a week later, I was fired, despite my position allegedly being exempted due to national security.” DOGE is already watching you, fam. apnews.com/article/doge...

Musk is acting like he runs the U.S. government—but the Constitution does not allow an unelected super-president We’re taking him & DOGE to court to impose consequences I’ll discuss tonight at 6PM ET on @msnbc.com w/ @jonathancapehart.bsky.social

"Modern societies, as Americans are soon to learn, cannot function without experts in every field, especially the many thousands who work in public service," writes @radiofreetom.bsky.social.

Yes, indeed — what the fuck!!! 😡

And on FOX NEWS, no less.

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.
