Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Zelenskyy has shown the world what democracy means. Donald Trump is a convicted felon and a sexual pervert. These two men shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same sentence.

a very confused Trump still thinks that people who make political asylum claims by definition come from insane asylums

You don't fire Judge Advocates General unless you plan on issuing unlawful orders. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-f...

Trump: I hope my greatest legacy will be as a peace maker, not a conquerer. I don't want to be a conquerer.

Supreme Court Delivers Trump A LOSS In First Case to Make It Up To The High Court! youtu.be/0fbcFjbZTds?...

AZ AG Kris Mayes: This is a coup by Trump against our Constitution, because they are violating not only the separation of powers but also the court orders We have federal judges saying to Donald Trump and Elon Musk, “Stop this now,” and yet we believe they are violating those orders.

NEW: The email went out about 30 minutes ago.

I am very politically active and write/call my congressman often. I have lived in his district for almost 2 decades. I have never seen him in person and it’s not for a lack of trying. No town halls. No visiting his district. I’ve never seen hide nor hair of Sam Graves.

It has been a long and grueling week. Thank you to everyone who offered kind words of support. If you want to follow everything happening to democracy in court, while also supporting pro-democracy independent media, please sign up for Democracy Docket. www.democracydocket.com/me-subscribe...

Wait. So allegedly Maddox and Massie are a couple? Allegedly. Color me shocked. #kyga25 #familyvalues

Ya don’t say?

#Voices4Victory Mass of Federal Workers Fired Hunt for Waste, Fraud & Abuse But apparently the administration was able to budget $200M to thank this POS 🤔

Gang, at this point I’m too disillusioned to expect all of you to mask always (even though you should), but for the love of GOD, please at least mask at airports and on planes when you travel to events!!!

Penn to reduce graduate admissions, rescind acceptances amid federal research funding cuts www.thedp.com/article/2025... #phd #gradschool #penn #ivyleague #sad

Former flag officers speaking up. The political firings at the top in the military must stop. They know how this will harm our national security.

Let's say their names: * General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK * Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE * Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE All replaced by less qualified white guys.

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

www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv... Now that Trump has captured the intelligence services, the Justice Department, and the FBI, the military is the last piece he needs to establish the foundations for authoritarian control of the U.S. government.

Trump just fired the Joint Chief of Staff to install his own puppet. Do you really think he plans on leaving in 2028? www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

NEW: Public health teams are being gutted, imperiling efforts to safeguard organ donation and prevent maternal and infant death. Many workers expressed fear at what would happen to the work they left behind.

Alina Habba, who is ostensibly a lawyer, claims on Fox & Friends that Trump "made the law" with his executive orders (executive orders are not laws -- only Congress can make laws)

Overthrow the Nazis #25Amendment

A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

🤣 I miss Blackadder

"We are getting lots of calls about Musk and lots of calls thanking me for sticking up for Ukraine..." www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

I heard someone compare Trump’s mass firings to him being a bull in a china shop. I disagree. Trump is a like a bull in a VA hospital. Trump is like a bull in an assisted living facility. Trump is like a bull in an Alzheimer’s research center. Trump is like a bull in a NICU.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Trump was willing to stand up there for a few minutes to pretend to care about black history, but hugging the guy was a deal breaker.

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

When Trump’s tariff plans destroy the economy it’ll be important to remember that 99% of economists told him it would happen

It’s only right for him to be on the first flight to Mars. It’s his baby.

U.S. stocks took a massive nosedive after reports showed worries about how Donald Trump’s policies will likely affect the economy

NEW: The Associated Press is suing Trump Administration officials in federal court for banning AP reporters from events over the organization continuing to use the name 'Gulf of Mexico.' AP says the ban violates the First and Fifth Amendments.

REPORTER: Germany has elections on Sunday. What are you thoughts? TRUMP: Who has elections? REPORTER: Germany. TRUMP: Oh, Germany. I wish them luck. We got our own problems.

AP sues Trump, stocks crash, consumer confidence plummets, Trump fires the ICE director over poor deportation numbers, GOP has horrible fundraising numbers, and more. Catch up on today's news!

Judge Dale Ho Says NO to Trump's DOJ Trying to Dismiss Eric Adams' Criminal Case.

Fresh out of prison after Trump’s pardon, Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was arrested today for assaulting a woman protesting his event.

JUST IN: “A federal judge in Maryland on Friday blocked the Trump administration from terminating federal grants and contracts related to DEI as called for in executive orders signed by President Donald Trump.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Judge Ho said NO to DOJ’s attempted corrupt dismissal of Eric Adams’ case. Usually prosecutors and criminal defendants are ADVERSARIES. But because Trump DOJ henchman Emil Bove is on defendant Adams’ side, Judge Ho appointed Paul Clement to be on the side of the American people. Points of light.

Why I'm glad Judge Dale Ho appointed an amicus curiae in the Eric Adams case today: www.muellershewrote.com/p/judge-dale...

Remembering tonight these very racist rants from the campaign trail that nobody seemed to take seriously at the time. Welp.

Kinda weird that SecDef is announcing to the world that he has tax problems. Totally normal to blame Biden for your failure to pay taxes
