Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans — including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

200 million dollars of waste.

Not content with purchasing the presidency, Elon Musk now wants to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court as well. His PAC just pumped $1M into supporting anti-choice right-wing extremist Brad Schimel. Wisconsin — don't become Musk's latest acquisition! Vote @crawfordforwi.bsky.social.

Joe Walsh is absolutely correct that Criminal Donald Trump is a Russian asset. More people need to be saying this on these networks.

This ex-GOP Rep telling Trump’s DC prosecutor to fuck off was me.👇 www.rawstory.com/joe-walsh-26...

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

One of my favorite leaders, doing leadership things. Give 'em hell, AOC! 🔥💪

83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

"Leland Dudek, a data analyst working in a small anti-fraud office, was suspected of sharing unauthorized access to information with representatives of Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service. Now he’s the acting Social Security commissioner." wapo.st/41qBKwR

General Brown is a brilliant, amazing leader. I worked at the Air Staff for three years and it was known that he read everything the staff wrote for him. He believes if an analyst took the time to write it, it’s his responsibility to read it. Very few generals do this.

Amen to that.

"Six weeks ago, we had the strongest economy, employment, and stock market in history. ..All gone in 30 days."

True today as it ever was.

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

It's not about Brown, or Caine, or other individuals. It's not about reforming DOD . What it's about, at DOD and DOJ and the FBI and the intelligence community, is breaking all institutional resistance to Trump, and ensuring as much as is possible personal fealty to Trump.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

“While in this moment of emergency we must fight to preserve the democracy we have, reform & rethinking will be needed to achieve the democracy we want for the future. The chaos, corruption & misery will be hard but every day more eyes will be opened to the truth” open.substack.com/pub/lucid/p/...

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

I have to come back to this bc I'm old enough to remember when this would have brought the entire news cycle to a grinding halt, been biggest story on every front page, and been all the news was talking about all week.

Big Balls’s past gets more scrutiny — including the internship where he was terminated. “You’re willing to risk our entire network to a 17-year-old?” one frustrated executive asked the company’s CEO in 2022. “Are you for real right now?” @cnn.com www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

McConnell has been a thorn in the side of Democracy for years. From the Tea Party’s Bible thumping across laws, stolen SCOTUS seats & refusing to convict tRump after being impeached twice, he’s hurt America. His treachery will be felt for generations. #DemVoice1 www.axios.com/2025/02/20/m...

Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Chief of Naval Operations Vice Chief of Staff for the Air Force The Coast Guard Commandant And is looking to replace the Judge Advocates General for the Army, Navy and Air Force Will anyone stop him if he tries to use the military against US citizens

A profile of Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the Navy's top officer, who spent roughly half of her 40-year career at sea, commanding a destroyer, two carrier strike groups and the U.S. Sixth Fleet, & whom current Defense Secretary and former Fox & Friends co-host Pete Hegseth fired tonight.
