Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge?

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.

One of the most common questions we get is, “I’m in a deep red district/rural area with little party infrastructure — what can I do?” Our Rural and Red Caucus calls are a great place to find the answers. RSVP to join grassroots leaders from rural areas and GOP-dominated districts and states. 👇

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

Former SSA Commissioner @martinomalley.bsky.social: It's interesting to me that the people that are going after waste, fraud, and abuse would do away first with the division, whose job it was to guard against improper payments, waste fraud and abuse... This is totally irresponsible.

“Why lay off 400 of the BPA’s roughly 3,100 employees? Consumers of the BPA’s electricity pay their salaries, not the federal government, so the Trump administration is not trimming the federal budget with these layoffs.” www.cascadepbs.org/news/2025/02...
