Fourteen hours later, he's still going. Thank you, @booker.senate.gov, for using your voice to alert people to Trump and Musk's wrecking ball to Social Security and other vital services Americans rely on.

NEW: Welcome to the "try and stop me" presidency. Donald Trump's onslaught of executive actions, summary firings and outright breaches of laws meant to check executive power are an implicit bet that courts and Congress ultimately won't check him. www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

Trump supporters in my life are scaring the fuck out of me right now with their head-down excuses for his radical actions which are hurting Americans in the process.

Let's be clear: the Medicaid portal went offline because of Donald Trump's orders. The only reason it is back on is due to outrage from the American people. Now, they are trying to lie about it. Medicaid was never taken away from Americans under President Biden.

UPDATE: This bill was defeated today in the Senate. This is a victory for government accountability and our First Amendment rights.

If you wanted to know how an autocracy would start in America, it begins by releasing violent thugs from prison who beat up police defending Congress, illegally firing every Inspector General, and seizing billions appropriated by Congress for people with no authority to do so.

Man arrested near US Capitol allegedly intended to kill prominent Republicans. Man found with knife and two molotov cocktails planned to kill Mike Johnson and Seth Hegseth, prosecutors say. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

HUGE BREAKING NEWS: A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump Administration's freeze on federal grants and loans that was set to go into effect at 5 pm. Judge Loren AliKhan paused the plan for a week and set a hearing for further arguments next Monday morning. Good!!

I'm so proud of him for standing on his values! Who's with me?

And is it within executive powers to enforce that??

America is under attack by the President of the United States

Trump shut off Medicaid & was forced to turn it back on. But he'll keep pushing his order to shut off federal programs. He wants to take meals from seniors, pre-K from kids, & jobs from veterans. All so he can give billionaires a tax break. We must unite to stop Trump.

It’s been a long week and it’s only Tuesday evening 💔 Many of us are feeling Muste’s sentiment. #SheShed #Freedom

I heard he's married and a source familiar with their situation said she does not feel the same way.

Fanone: The Republican party owns a monopoly on hypocrisy when it comes to their supposed support of law enforcement because tonight the leader of the Republican party pardoned hundreds of violent cop assaulters.

New on MSNBC: Vice President Harris will fly back to Los Angeles today with an all-female U.S. Air Force crew — the first time an all-female crew has operated a C-33.   Upon landing, Harris will visit a local fire station and then distribute food to community members impacted by the wildfires.

Omg this is great 😀

DC hotels still have capacity. Top restaurants are still taking reservations. Popular bars aren’t extending their hours. Yeah… starting to think cold wasn’t the reason why they moved the inauguration inside lol

Just have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his. It’s just a matter of time until a lot of people lose money from this. I’m a crypto fan. This is not crypto any more than Madoff was just buying and selling shares of stock

But how will this affect the price of eggs?

Dr Martin Luther King once said “Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable…Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.” We must now all stand together in the fight for justice

Folks, you don’t need to watch the inauguration. Let’s watch movies instead.

ICE is planning immigration raids starting Tuesday. Please amplify.

Just got this video. The @lafd.bsky.social and @calfire.bsky.social had over 75 fire engines and pieces of equipment in place before the winds started and this is what they faced the first night. Just an insane situation to deal with and blaming it on anything other than nature is ridiculous.

AOC: “We are on the eve of an authoritarian administration.” 🇺🇸

Just a reminder to everyone who voted for trump because you wanted lower prices on shit: You ain't getting it. He admitted it. Said it's too hard. But he has ALREADY enriched himself and his wealthy friends with his and Melania's shit coins. He doesn't give a fuck about you.

RESIST. Don't quit. Don't stop fighting. Don't obey in advance. Don't stop calling them out. Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can. Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone. Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight. RESIST.

Tomorrow we celebrate Black Americans: MLK Malcolm X Travon Martin Breonna Taylor Eric Garner Tamir Rice Kendrick Johnson George Floyd Emmett Till Korryn Gaines Laquan McDonald Freddy Gray Michael Brown Ahmaud Arbery Booker T Washington W. E. B. Du Bois Ta’Kiya Young Thurgood Marshall Not Trump
