Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

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.

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.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

I despise this orange scumbag with the intensity of a thousand suns.

Don’t just like it ❤️ please Spread the word.

I approve this message

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Why don’t you wear a suit?

Pay attention, America.

This should be an inspiration to all American Governors. I give you @jbpritzker.bsky.social's State of the State speech for 2025. It's worth a read. www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/c...

Tom Homan said AOC is the dumbest Congresswoman to ever serve in Congress. I challenge him to present himself before Congress and have her question him under oath. I dare him.

Another FBI leader standing up for the rule of law “Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the FBI and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and FBI policy." James Dennehy, FBI NY Field Office

After American airspace was closed on 9/11, over 230 flights with 30,000 passengers and crew were diverted to Canadian airports. Transport Canada received thousands of calls from members of the public offering to help the stranded passengers. Thinking about that today, for no particular reason.

Here's a fact most Americans don't know: The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is the largest purchaser of wine by dollar value in the world. The LCBO has shut the flow of all American beer, wine, spirits. We will drink "Freedom wines" from our allies and beer from our communities.

Trudeau invoked John F. Kennedy. He spoke of sending water bombers to LA He spoke of one of US darkest days, 9/11, when Canada welcomed planes & passengers that could not fly home for several days. Thank you again, Gander Newfoundland, and all of Canada, for being good neighbors & friends.

At OPM, Musk’s staffers won’t leave—they work around the clock and have even installed sofa beds in the office. Our access to data systems has been restricted, raising serious concerns about cybersecurity and a complete lack of oversight. We are keeping our heads down and documenting everything.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!

Trump's purge of longtime federal employees isn't meant to improve efficiency or keep us safer. It's to install loyalists who will punish his political enemies and increase his wealth. We are all going to suffer from more accidents, diseases, rising inflation, and spiking crime as a result.

Another of the many blatantly illegal actions this Administration is undertaking. If Congressional Repubs were serious about upholding their oaths to "support and defend the Constitution" they'd be calling this out, launching inquiries, and refusing to confirm these criminals.

They misspelled concentration camp.

Statement from NPR on the Pentagon’s decision to take away its workspace (which is being given to Breitbart): “This decision interferes with the ability of millions of Americans to directly hear from Pentagon leadership, and with NPR’s public interest mission.”

Donald Trump says he wants new media in the White House. We are taking you up on the offer, Donald. We just applied for credentials. Here’s our challenge to you. Or are you too afraid?

Bravo to Sen. Alsobrooks for her question. “We should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule as Whites because their immune system is better than ours.” — RFK Jr This is the deadlier version of the racist myth that Black people feel less pain, leading to denied pain meds.

He also very directly and specifically blamed disabled people. And I am absolutely begging y’all to call it out and not leave us out of your activism. He literally named us. Why aren’t we on your list of at-risk groups?
