What an embarrassment to the US the crowd in Boston is.

Let’s go Canada! #4NationsHockey

A new government tracker claims DOGE has saved billions from ending federal contracts. But an NPR analysis of the data finds the claimed savings don't add up.

At my public library I can borrow books, ebooks, audiobooks, read magazines or newspapers in person and online, take online courses, use research databases, borrow DVDs and CDs, stream movies, TV programs, music, borrow a wifi hotspot, game, musical instrument, park pass, attend programs, and more!

BREAKING: USAID contractors/aid recipients say Secretary Rubio and USAID leader Peter Marocco should be held in civil contempt for violating a court order to lift spending freeze.

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

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.

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Los Angeles peeps—spread the word about ICE. We won’t know for sure until it happens, but better safe than sorry. Be prepared.

Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an authoritarian like Putin."

A drug addict who makes cars that spontaneously explode, plows into cops, and crash at much higher rates than other cars, is going to fix the air traffic control system? I'm not getting on a plane until this drug-addled illegal immigrant is deported or imprisoned.

I'm always accidentally firing several officials working on bird flu

DOGE having access to Americans' Social Security data isn't just a major security breach. It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "waste and fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires another giant tax cut. Be warned.

Hey, @msnbc.com. Why do you allow your readers to share articles on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and most other major platforms — but NOT Bluesky? Asking for nearly 32 million users.

This is horrendous.

white nationalist men are too emotional to be in charge

I cannot fucking believe that the United States of America is “working together” with Russia. That certainly is NOT what the American people want.

How in the world are there talks to end the war in Ukraine yet the idiot US administration isn’t including Ukraine in the talks???? That is the FIRST country that should be included. It is their country.

What an absolute embarrassment Vance and Hegseth are on an international stage. Never in my life did I think a sitting Vice President would meet with the Nazi party.

I have just finished reading Danielle Sassoon’s memorandum in its entirety. It is a tour de force. Its correctness is obvious. She’s an American hero. Emil Bove ought to be investigated by his state’s bar association for discipline and possible disbarment, at least.
