To all those who said boycotting Target was a waste of time. It wasn't. Keep it up, y'all!

This is impoundment, it is illegal, and that should be in the headline www.npr.org/2025/05/02/n...

In Jan 2024, when Joe Biden was president, Trump took credit for stock market gains, saying they were evidence that people knew he was going to win. In April 2025, when Trump is president, Trump blames Biden for stock market collapse.

I went back to Twitter to verify this is real. My God.

This aged well

This is where we are headed.

This is pretty awesome

RFK is both a monster and a liar

Elon Musk is now attacking Tesla's regulators. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is DOGE's latest target. This is after Musk attacked - FAA (which investigated SpaceX) - USAID (which investigated Starlink) - CFPB (which would regulate X as a payment app)

👀

Friendly reminder that two "Supreme Court Justices" are COMPLETELY fine with shipping a legal resident of this country off to a foreign prison with zero due process.

Who could’ve foreseen that it would be a disaster to put an unqualified Fox weekend host with a drinking problem and sordid personal history in charge of the military

We could have been talking about $25K down payment assistance for new homeowners in a thriving economy right now, but here we are.

Legal permanent resident of the U.S., showing up to apply for citizenship, with no allegations of criminal activity, is arrested and detained by masked police. This is fascism, and that is not a word I use lightly. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/n...

Pathetic.

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

The worse the economy gets, the more the Republicans will fear-monger and distract with immigration, crime, and cultural issues. We cannot fall into the trap. Stay focused.

This is indeed a moment of truth for Harvard — and for American higher education as well as science, medicine, technology, and the humanities. If the richest university in the world submits to lawless extortion by the Cult of Trump, we are truly sunk. We must be clear: Veritas is not for sale.

Thank you, Senator Booker

He wore the cheesehead hat in WI. Spent $20 million. Paid people to sign petitions. Paid people to canvas. Did million dollar giveaways. A rally. TV interviews. But I guess people in Wisconsin didn’t appreciate an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.

Sanders/AOC rally in Denver yesterday

Keep this in mind when they say they’re fighting antisemitism. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Hot take: When Trump was using the White House to advance his own businesses that was actually less corrupt than this

Make President’s Day, Monday Feb 17, a National Day of Protest Against The MuskTakeover

Of course the Democrats will be going to Houston to find and interview voters who were laid off , to ask them what their expectations of the new administration were and how they feel they are doing at the moment. And posting here and everywhere. Right ?

"Nobody has the right to go into the Oval Office and ask the President of the United States questions. That is an invitation that is given."

💰 Cutting billions in programs for regular people while passing trillions in tax cuts for the rich while pretending to care about the debt. Pay attention.

👇🏽🤔 💰

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are now ordering the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop protecting consumers from unfair fees, fraud, and scams. They have cut off funding to the agency.

The richest man on earth, Elon Musk is trying to kill a department, USAID, that helps the poorest people on earth Because USAID has been investigating Musk and his Starlink company — and their ties to Vladimir Putin and Russia THAT is why Musk is attacking USAID

🧐

This is insane. Musk, the world's richest man, owner of the most influential political messaging platform, and a de facto government member and top ally to the president, is accusing a journalist of being a criminal, because she reported on one of his racist DOGE staffers. This is fascist behavior.

🚨🚨

The shock and awe Musk, Vought, Bannon and Trump — are bringing will backfire if we’re smart about it. Make clear that DOGE is the Dept of Govt Extermination, not Efficiency. Let people see that their taxes are no longer paying for vital public services but to fatten the richest people on earth.

Probably a coincidence right?

Elon Musk says we should allow more WHITE South Africans to emigrate to the US. Not South Africans of any other race - specifically WHITE South Africans only.

Canada’s Conservative Party leader. Post on the left is Pierre 3 months ago after our election. Post on the right is today.

I'd like to think that the party that controls 49% of the Congress would be doing more to protect American democracy than a bunch of professors on Blue Sky and the prime minister of Canada

@mcuban.bsky.social we need details about this trade

Somehow we got to the point where millions of American Republicans love Vladimir Putin and hate Canada.

Back when Mike Pence showed us that you don’t have to erase Black History Month; you can just make it about white people.

I'm pretty sure if I walked into the Department Commerce and prevented career civil service employees from accessing their computers and told everyone there that they worked for me now, I'd either be arrested or straightjacketed.
