The Associated Press is suing three Trump officials citing freedom of speech because the AP refused an unconstitutional effort by the White House to change the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America! #USDemocracy apple.news/AulU8ztMoQHW...

Judge orders nationwide preliminary injunction of anti-DEI executive orders. "Plaintiffs’ irreparable harms include widespread chilling of unquestionably protected speech." www.justsecurity.org/wp-content/u...

The wheels are get wobbly on the Trump bus. His slash-and-burn approach to governing is sending poll numbers south.

This letter is a remarkable combination of stupid and ominous.

BREAKING — States attorneys general lead by @newyorkstateag.bsky.social were just granted a preliminary injunction in their case against DOGE. The team cannot access Treasury Department payment systems or data while the lawsuit proceeds. Major.

🔔 Not wanting to give false hope… but— There is a story from a Park Service worker of getting their job back after an appeal. Employee says: “Please continue fighting for everyone else who has lost their job. Keep calling your representatives.” 🔍 www.congress.gov/members/find...

This x10000000000 “In other words: We, the opposition, are the majority. Take heart.” www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/they-are-a...

NEW: Trump’s DoJ Chief of Staff has filed a complaint against Judge Reyes because she bench slapped their bigoted asses into the sun three days ago.

"Attempts to fit him into a traditional ideological box will always fail, because he has never met a box he couldn’t sell for parts to the highest bidder." gift link 🎁: www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

Finnish MEP Mika Aaltola reports that the Trump led US has given Europe three weeks to agree on terms for Ukraine’s surrender to Russia. "Trump prioritizes Russia’s security concerns now and in the future. Let them own their mess. We have three weeks to grow up." www.kyivpost.com/post/47574

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

“Every current and former NNSA employee who spoke to The Bulwark was alarmed about the possibilities of this sort of brain drain, fretting that Musk and his tech-bro buds simply didn’t realize how unsuited the ‘turn everything off and see what breaks’ model was to their line of work.”

[You'll have seen this in lots of my writing.]

Now is the time for all personal-injury lawyers, class-action filers, ambulance-chasers, & Slippin’ Jimmys to bond together to show the king just how expensive neglecting human needs can be The civil service is, by contrast, thrift itself

FUCKING WHAT??? TRUMP TAKING OVER POSTAL SERVICE (USPS)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK???????????? PER LAWRENCE O'DONNELL

A federal judge finds the Trump admin has "not complied" with his TRO blocking the blanket suspension of foreign aid funding, but stops short of holding it in contempt. Doc https://buff.ly/3ENrGoY

remarkable that the White House cannot just say that Putin is responsible for Putin's war

i think it is cool that de facto first consul of the united states is a drug-addled maniac and deadbeat dad with a breeding fetish

Wow. DOGE is far more expensive than the USDS that it pretends to be. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

NEW: Judge warns Trump appointees not to try to evade his order halting a blanket pause to foreign-aid payments, but stops short of holding officials in contempt. Minutes later, aid groups file new evidence Rubio may have violated court order www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Last I checked there was a federal criminal statute on extortion that’s enforced by the United States Department of Jus— … oh wait, never mind

UNREAL: The United States State Department has forced employees to cancel subscriptions to any media considered unfriendly to Trump, including Politico, The New York Times, Reuters and the Associated Press. That's what fascists do.

@aoc.bsky.social is spot on! “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” #DoSomething

Loving her 🔥🔥🔥 We need this ferocity from our leaders and we, the people. We are fighting back!💪 Credit alvarezreports IG

These are the kind of letters people are receiving if they dare to question this administration. We have a constitutional right and duty to speak up. #DemocracyNotDictatorship

Trump and Musk have fired Minnesotans like: -- Park Rangers at Voyageurs -- Fire protection engineers -- Workers who care for our veterans -- Workers who care for folks with disabilities -- Workers who dole out small business loans How does this help anyone?

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

As I noted in this morning's bonus "One First," this case (about Trump's attempt to remove MSPB Chairwoman Cathy Harris) is a *much* bigger test of how far #SCOTUS will go than the Dellinger case—because this case, not that one, implicates Humphrey's Executor: www.stevevladeck.com/p/bonus-125-...

Susan Collins believes what the White House and Musk are up to is illegal, and she expects lawsuits. But she doesn't have to wait for the courts: She's the chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, which gives her real power that she could be using right now. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Jeffries: We’re dealing with a group of people where, for far too many of them, facts don’t matter. Hypocrisy is not a constraint on their behavior. And many of them have actually come to the conclusion that their shamelessness is a superpower. We have to hold them accountable…

He served 14 years and deployed to Afghanistan, but Trump's transgender military service ban leaves him and thousands more in limbo. Read more: cnn.it/3EXHmWx

The most inept, corrupt, and cruel administration in history loves to watch other people suffer. They get off on it, especially pukes like Stephen Miller. The Republican Party is evil and they must be stopped before it’s too late, but HOW are we going to do it? www.thebulwark.com/p/the-cruelt...

Alaska has the fourth-highest number of federal workers per capita—fish & game, forestry, and more—their jobs are being cut under the excuse of “poor performance.” Lisa Murkowski knows that’s a lie—so why won’t she just say, it’s a lie. Collins, Burchett, and the rest are just giving lip service.

I'm not going to make it alive through four years. The utterly stupid shit they say every ten seconds is going to give me a massive stroke.

The man literally declared himself king twice yesterday

You know this is 100% going to happen…

JD Vance: "We cannot rebuild western civilization, we cannot rebuild the United States or Europe, by letting millions and millions of unvetted migrants come into our country. It has to stop ... you have to allow European peoples, and of course the American people too, to raise issues about it."

If Trump voters were the only ones who had to suffer the consequences, I’d be okay with that. Unfortunately, people who voted AGAINST Trump will also be hurt when needed government services are cut, or when Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security benefits are slashed to pay for tax cuts for the rich.

Polis claims that Musk/Trump's goal is to make things better for less money, but reality is that Musk/Trump's goal is to make things worse for more money in their pockets.

Absolutely genius. Who did this?
