BREAKING: The Associated Press sues three Trump administration officials over access to presidential events, citing the First Amendment.

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Gov Janet Mills of Maine’s statement today should be read by everyone. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

The governor of Maine is a 77-year-old in the middle of her second term in office and therefore ineligible to run for a third. But King Trump here tries to intimidate her by saying she'll have no future career in politics if she dares to stand up to him. I think she's all good, man.

Trump to the Governor of Maine: "We are the federal law." The Intimidation President threatens Maine with losing all federal funding.

THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT. Right in the White House, Maine Gov Janet Mills goes toe to toe with Trump. Wow.

Rare to see someone confront Trump in person. "We’ll see you in court,” Maine Gov. Janet Mills told Trump. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

BRAVO to Maine Governor Janet Mills for slapping petty tyrant trump in the face with her calmly defiant "see you in court." THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. 🔥🔥🔥

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

This is also what she voted for

The waste is coming from the White House. 👇

Agreed. @npr.org does a great breakdown of DOGE's shell game. The DOGE kids are too young to understand different purchasing mechanisms, too stupid to know that they have it wrong, and too arrogant to care. They know MAGA won't check the math because they're just as stupid.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

and for the record an awful lot of Americans would side with and die defending Canada in any war between our two nations

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are messing with your Medicare benefits. Democrats passed a law to finally let Medicare negotiate with Big Pharma for lower prices. Now Trump and Musk laid off the negotiators. That means higher drug costs for you. Nothing efficient about that.

Tom Homan asks “where is that line,” as if it is mysterious or unknowable. It’s not. Tom’s saying it that way because he’s too much of a coward just to say “she should be arrested for telling people their rights.” Also, to be fair, he may be too dim to understand the line.

HEADLINE: Texas measles outbreak rises to 48 cases. It’s the state’s WORST in nearly 30 YEARS. There is absolutely NO REASON measles outbreaks should be on the rise. Two doses of MMR vaccine are 97% EFFECTIVE against measles. So, let’s talk about what YOU can do to PROTECT yourself AND others. 🧪🧵⬇️

I listened to an interview today with an infectious disease physician/researcher. I was scared of our new DHHS Director & his power before, but I am terrified now. I had no idea how easily measles spreads or how dangerous it can be. America, you in DANGER, girl.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Thank you, @markjacob.bsky.social .

You know what you call a government that rounds up its political enemies? You call it a dictatorship.

America Gives Trump an Earful at 'Not My President's Day' Rallies President Donald Trump's contentious first month in office was marked by thousands of Americans taking to the streets to protest his leadership. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Zelensky says if Trump pulls out of NATO, Russia will “100%” occupy at least parts of Europe.

I know some people are being super cautious and not willing to blame Trump and Musk for the number of airline collisions we've witnessed over the past month. But, I am not as generous as you considering there's a full scale assault on our FAA under his watch. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...
