🔥Rufus Gifford, former U.S. amb. to Denmark, unloaded on JD Vance for saying Denmark “is not a good ally”: Go to Denmark and say it to the faces of the parents of the young men and women who lost their lives alongside U.S. troops. Say it to them!

Khalen Saunders hosting an LGBTQ-inclusive football camp this summer. Love it. Need more of this.

I'm getting tired of people saying we can disagree about politics but still be friends, or agree to disagree. No. I will not agree to disagree. No.

ELECTED DEMOCRATS:

Carelessly playing with our lives

Nearly every Republican in the Senate voted to overturn a Biden Admin rule that limited bank overdraft fees to $5. This rule, initially established by the now gutted CFPB, was expected to save consumers $5 billion annually. The GOP is the party of junk fees.

BREAKING: DOGE is starting to put together a team to migrate the SSA's computer systems entirely off one of its oldest programming languages in a matter of months, potentially putting the integrity of the system—and the benefits on which tens of millions of Americans rely—at risk.

I miss Joe and Kamala so much. And I miss not being angry and anxious everyday.

In earlier eras there were plans for mass protests if the administration crossed a line--for example when the bombing of Iraq began 22 years ago this month. We need something like that for the threatened invasions, though I have to admit this admin crosses 99 lines a day.

I noted the plaintiff in the case against the military transgender ban that just resulted in a nationwide injunction against it, out of WA state, is Commander Emily Shilling, a Navy fighter and test pilot who transitioned while in the service. glaad.org/transgender-...

I’m finding it very hard not to hate people. The racism of this administration is too much. Hell is too a nice a place for them.

Martial Law. It’s the elephant in the room. It’s what authoritarians resort to when the tide turns against them. It’s what the authoritarian in this White House is setting the stage for. 🧵…

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

This is a real tweet posted by the official White House government account. Yes, really.

Right-wing YouTuber Tim Pool has made it to the White House pool — someone from his “Timcast” channel will be part of today’s pool duty covering the president. Last year, DOJ revealed Pool was receiving millions of dollars from the Russian gov. Pool says he didn’t know where it was coming from.

Yep

RFK is a eugenics freak first and foremost and everything falls downstream from that. he *wants* excess deaths. he thinks that only the "fit" should survive.

it has to infuriate him that she’s a million times better at posting than he’ll ever be

They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.

🚨🚨🚨it’s here 🚨🚨🚨

Think about it.

Important distinction here

🚨ALERT: Elon Musk is now trying to buy a seat in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race on April 1. Right before he endorsed Brad Schimel, Tesla SUED Wisconsin. He’s not buying a judge. He’s buying a ruling. Why aren’t more Democrats talking about this??

This is the simplest and most obvious explanation.

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

lol I think we should include this everywhere. Just sayin

WHY

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.

I wish people hated fascism half as much as they hate feminism

“act of love” in the face of “hate,” Thank you @andybeshearky.bsky.social

Thanks maga

Yesterday, I fondly remembered my dear friend Leonard Nimoy, who would have turned 94. His legacy lives on in our hearts. Just days ago, Bill Shatner celebrated his 94th birthday — wishing him continued health and happiness. Live long and prosper, my friends.

MASKED SECRET POLICE arrested a student on the sidewalk in broad daylight FOR WRITING AN OP/ED We are absolutely at that point now

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

lol they think we’re stupid

YES!

đź‘Źđź‘Źđź‘Źđź‘Źđź‘Ź

is there any reason at all that the Democratic party should not immediately demand Hegseth's resignation?
