A must read from @juliezebrak.bsky.social, who was nice enough to shepherd this week’s edition of The Democracy Index.

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

One of the question that keeps me up at night these days is whether the courts are up to the job ahead of them.

After Trump & Vance’s utterly disgraceful performance it’s good to see European leaders step up. It’s profoundly American to criticize our leaders when they stray from democratic principles let alone what we are seeing in Trump’s administration. As a proud American I intend to fight for our country.

GOP seems incapable of reading the neon sign Trump is holding up announcing his alleigance to Putin. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

🚨 BREAKING: Thirteen prime ministers and two presidents are attending today’s emergency Ukraine summit in London. America is no where to be found. American First is America Alone.

Here is some truth: Putin invaded Ukraine. NATO is the most successful military alliance in history. Since 1945, American leadership has ensured freedom and security for ourselves and millions of others around the world.

Sign of the day…

Putin owns Trump. He doesn’t own us. youtube.com/shorts/LVTuF...

The fact that many Americans cannot recognize fascism unless it looks exactly like Nazi Germany is very dangerous.

Remember this: Tyranny cannot prevail over people who refuse to succumb to it.

There’s nothing wrong with Billionaires having billions. There is something inherently wrong with billionaires cutting your benefits, and help to the poor through USAID, and running around with a chainsaw giggling. You can have power or billions. But we refuse to be an oligarchy

This is what a real leader looks like!!

People are making their voices heard… National Parks belong to us—not Trump and not billionaires. Thank you for standing up and defending our parkland!

New York Times, Jan. 26, 1935.

This is really rich. These guys are two peas in a pod who simply can’t tell the truth. Tuberville just makes up a story about recruiting Mahomes and Trump lies about Tuberville being a “great coach.” www.al.com/news/2025/02...

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now. Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings. I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them. Get local media there. Make it real.

Only the best people.

Many thanks to #TheWildRobot team for inviting me to attend #TheOscars & to the Academy for asking me to be a part of the ceremony. I will be presenting the award for Original Score with no wardrobe malfunctions whatsoever.🤞

Mike Johnson, a Kremlin spokesperson, had this to say today.

Happy Sunday!

There are good people out there.

Quincy Jones: “I tell my kids and I tell proteges, always have humility when you create and grace when you succeed, because it's not about you. You are a terminal for a higher power. As soon as you accept that, you can do it forever.”

Outstanding ‼️

Remember, the alternative to the Trump Regime destroying our government was to tax billionaires a bit more. Now you know why they are doing it.

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

Leaders of the free world stand united in London The United States is not among them

The cognitive dissonance is almost impressive.

Thou shalt not deport hard working, good people whilst importing vile criminals like the Tate brothers and still claim you have morals.

What happened to Little Marco?

Oh, how I love to be lectured on accountability by the coward who incited a mob that killed five people while he still enjoys his Senate seat… open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...
