It’s like we’re living in a fucked up modern day Oregon Trail. Ricky has polio Tommy was shot in school Bandits have run off with your social security Susan has died from an ectopic pregnancy You have died from a preventable disease Nazis have vandalized your grave

BUFFETT: Tariffs are “an act of war, to some degree. .. Over time, they are a tax on goods. I mean, the Tooth Fairy doesn’t pay ’em!” @cnbc.com 🇺🇸 www.cnbc.com/2025/03/02/w...

The accuracy of the political cartoons recently is incredibly painful.

If by funny you mean disgraceful and embarrassing, sure

For the 3rd time in 3 yrs, House Republicans are proposing a book ban that will criminalize school libraries, strip parents of rights, + undermine local control. OPPOSE HB 324, Wednesday 3/5 in the House Education Policy Committee: gc.nh.gov/house/commit... #NHPolitics

Recent actions across the federal government and in Department of Defense, including hiring freezes, layoffs, and the cancelling of contracts, are dangerous and undermine our national security. The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard must be fully exempt from cuts and layoffs. www.wmtw.com/article/new-...

MAGA is big mad that Germans made fun of Elon Musk at a parade in Düsseldorf, Germany. 🍿

We need to do NEW THINGS!

Atlanta Fed Q1 GDP tracker was -1.5% on Friday. Today it’s -2.8%. 🇺🇸 www.atlantafed.org/cqer/researc...

Lt. Jessica Wyman served NH as a firefighter, paramedic, and nurse. In 2023, she passed away from occupational cancer. Thank you to NH State Firemen's Assn. leaders Chris Wyman, her husband, and Tom Green for sharing her story and for advocating for fallen heroes and their families.

Every accusation is an intention.

Today's update: the big difference between the parties. One is working FOR Americans. One is working AGAINST us. For our adversaries. Here's what our pro-American leaders did today: #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory #Opposition

Was thinking last night that laid-off journalists should really consider running for office. You know the issues. You can communicate. You know the importance of a free press and the dangers of social media oligarchs. You understand how to localize national issues. You know how to place stories.

BESPOKE: the Nasdaq 100 just had its fastest 5%+ decline from an all-time high (6 trading days) since September 2020. $NDX

How do you feel about the spread of measles

The Republicans are taking health insurance away from their own voters to pay for a tax cut for themselves. They will do everything they can to distract everyone from this one undeniable and damning truth.

In light of the Trump administration’s firing of over 2,400 VA employees so far, it’s more critical than ever that we ensure veterans can access their benefits and receive help from accredited, transparent representatives.

After communities across NH reject caps on local education spending, Republicans are now trying to override the will of the voters (HB 675)—silencing their voices and stripping away control of their tax dollars. #NHPolitics

In Congress, I’m fighting to give our rural communities every opportunity to thrive, including ensuring access to safe drinking water and reliable wastewater systems. Grateful for the Rural Community Assistance Partnership (RCAP).

Hmm. 🤔

We should be writing Project 2029—defining the society we want, clearly and publicly. Let’s start today.

🚨LOCATION CHANGE: Keene, looking forward to seeing you tomorrow! Please note our location change to Keene Public Library. I hope you’ll join us. 📣Community Conversation with Congresswoman Goodlander 📅 Friday, February 28, 2025, at 4:00 PM 📍Keene Public Library, Heberton Hall 📨RSVP: bit.ly/4bh1f7k

Extremely ominous

Not only that, bring a life sized version of their pussy Republican rep and let voters respond to their cut outs. Make it happen America!

Ayotte shows us what trickle down economics looks like: She's pushing favors for opulence and cuts to foundational securities.

Been a while since I posted something, and I figure a lot of you need something nice to break up the daily horror, so here's what I've been working on: a mural for my soon to be niece's bedroom. #lotr

A one-size-fits-all approach isn’t an effective way to support rural small businesses after disaster strikes. My bill would tailor SBA outreach to improve small businesses’ access to disaster assistance - and I urge my colleagues to support my bill on the floor this week. ➡️ bit.ly/4hQmPlg

Also and not for nothing, the debt limit X Date approaches…

Call me crazy, but my idea of making America great involves a lot fewer Nazis.

If the Democrats bail out Mike Johnson on ANY spending bill, they deserve the utter political destruction coming their way. Some are already falling for the "but we'll get blamed for shutting down the government" b.s. Have you learned NOTHING? Not. One. Vote.

😂

I proudly served as an intelligence officer in the Navy Reserve for over a decade. In that time, I saw firsthand that strong apolitical leadership in the top ranks of the military is vital to our national security. President Trump’s move to purge senior officers is deeply concerning and dangerous.

"Every Tesla sale helps fund fascists. It’s up to us to make sure regular people start to feel every bit as uncomfortable being associated with a Tesla as they would feel marching in a neo-Nazi parade." A few thoughts on how we can effectively fight Elon Musk www.altrightdelete.news/p/make-tesla...
