Duckworth: "He's accepting a bribe, which is unconstitutional and illegal. And he's gonna accept an aircraft that then is gonna cost taxpayers another billion dollars at a time when he wants to cut funding for Medicaid. It's simple unacceptable."

This is too wholesome

This part

Welcome to the RFK Jr public health era.

At least we can smile knowing JD converted to Catholicism only to be PERSONALLY disliked by not one but TWO popes

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

This is a very, very complex and exceedingly thorough process that involves extensive use of the president’s TiVo remote, so please, please, everyone, give it time www.npr.org/2025/04/21/n...

We are the League of Conservation Voters and have been fighting for people and the planet since 1970. 🌎 We're currently suing Trump over his unlawful orders to drill in protected areas of the Arctic and Atlantic. But we need your help to keep fighting back. Can you REPOST & give us a follow?

no criminal record no gang ties no tattoos active pending asylum case **19 years old** sent by trump to prison (forever?) in el salvador www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is in fact what we have done. Foolish, shortsighted, appalling.

Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don't match their birth certificates. Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.

In my overly long political career, I have never seen anything as substantively inexplicable or politically suicidal as Trump’s decision to sink the economy and raise prices immediately after being elected to improve the economy and lower prices. www.messageboxnews.com/p/trump-is-c...

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.

Thurmond was the same age as Booker when he set the record Senator Cory Booker just broke. Thurmond was afforded a bathroom break and read from the encyclopedia. Booker held the floor the entire time and delivered a consistent, cogent speech for more than 24 hours. Incredible.

The self-styled free speech people constantly threatening to imprison people for speaking.

“Due Process” is in the constitution twice for a reason. 🇺🇸

Elon Musk’s loyalists at DOGE have infiltrated dozens of federal agencies, pushed out tens of thousands of workers, and siphoned millions of people’s most sensitive data. The next step: Unleash the AI. THE INSIDE STORY:

Americans: We’d like to afford basic necessities, keep vital programs, and not lose our retirement savings. Trump: Best I can do is a car commercial for the richest man on Earth.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Don’t tell me democracy is at risk and a constitutional crisis is unfolding and the best you got is a modified ping pong paddle.

And now this…👇 Angry yet?! This. Once. Great. Country. Is. Weeping. ✨

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

WOW. After yesterday’s Oval Office ambush of President Zelensky, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway’s leading marine fuel providers, announced that it will no longer refuel U.S. Navy vessels, urging other European firms to follow suit. The United States is weaker and more isolated than ever.

That asshole in the White House will NEVER speak for me. Smash that 💙 if you stand with President Zelensky.

I think Trump might’ve lost Dave.

Nothing about kids dying from measles is normal. Anti-vaxxers like RFK Jr. and the Republicans who enable them are responsible for every single one of these deaths.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

— 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.

He’s not making up: news.bloomberglaw.com/banking-law/... Is this really what y’all voted for? 🫤 💰

See here's how to do a headline. fortune.com/2025/02/13/e...

DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY SCIENCE: 1. Chickenpox 2. Diphtheria 3. Measles 4. Pertussis 5. Pneumococcal Infection 6. Polio 7. Tetanus 8. Typhoid 9. Yellow Fever 10. Smallpox DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY RFK JR. OR PRAYER: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

2. Help Democrats The success of any opposition rests on the opposing party taking power. Next time you want to attack a Democrat for being too much of this or too little of that, realize that you are only helping the GOP. Instead, find a Democrat you support and volunteer for their campaign.

I wonder why Musk is focused on the federal civilian workforce (4% of the budget) and not federal contractors, which account for 3x more annual spending and are more prone to waste, fraud, and abuse?

Should the richest man in the world be able to shut down a federal program because he wants to? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I'm never going to forgive the people and politicians who sat silently while Trump sicced the entire federal government against trans people.

At what point do we start calling what Elon Musk is doing inside our government a coup

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

The Trump administration has stripped away the legal-immigration status of 600,000 Venezuelans who had permission to live and work in the United States, Gisela Salim-Peyer writes:

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

Well said, Pete Buttigieg

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

From this morning

the first fatal commercial plane crash in 16 years happened just days after Trump froze hiring of air traffic controllers that were already stretched thin

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Call it what it is 👇 #ResistTrump

You guys need to see this and take it in… Wise words from someone who is a target. And he’s been listening.

Back on the grind tomorrow

This isn’t a “seems like” or “appears to be” event… It was intentional, deliberate, and unequivocal.

H/t George Conway — it’s perfect 🤣 from Olivia Julianna:
