Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

White House: I DIDN’T GET WRECKED YOU GOT WRECKED

In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years. Dr. Vinod Balachandran from @mskcancercenter.bsky.social joins us to discuss the results and what they could mean for cancer treatment.

Elon Musk just had the Community Note removed from the clip of his interview with Trump that went viral on X. The note pointed out that Musk lied about having to rescue astronauts because Biden supposedly abandoned them.

Lawyers at Twitter are reportedly threatening advertisers to spend more money on the platform “or else” Elon Musk will use his connections with Trump to hurt their companies.

Carville: The key issue is that in this century under Democratic President 50 million jobs have been created. One million jobs under Republicans

Here we go. Certain generals must be removed before any martial law plan is put into action—as Trump and Hegseth are worried there may still be some generals out there who support the Constitution rather than his proposed dictatorship. This is a political purge intended as a precursor to far more.

He's mad his lies about Ukraine were fact-checked by his own website so he wants to change the fact-checking system

Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia has published a letter sent to him by Trump’s Department of Justice threatening to potentially prosecute him for criticizing Elon Musk.

Legislation that I passed and was funded by Congress, Solar for All, could reduce electric bills for working class families by 80%. The Trump Admin is refusing to release the money in order to protect the profits of fossil fuel billionaires. Unacceptable. Release the funds NOW.

I guess free speech only goes one way.

Garcia: The fact that the Trump DOJ now wants to silence members of Congress because we’re actually willing to take on Elon Musk is quite dangerous. It’s incredibly disturbing. But we’re not going to be silenced. We’ve got to push back.

🚨 Today's top stories: 📉 Trump’s approval is dropping—57% say he’s exceeded his power, 62% say he’s not honest 💰 GOP budget slashes $888B from Medicaid 🇺🇦 Trump spreads Putin’ lies about Ukraine 🚀 Musk calls to defund the ISS Get ALL the news ⬇️

In the wealthiest nation on earth, 25% of seniors should not be living on $15,000 a year or less. We should EXPAND Social Security, not cut it. I will soon be introducing legislation to significantly raise Social Security benefits and extend the solvency of the program.

Um...Is he okay?

They are at it again!!!

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

You're nuts if you're questioning the wisdom and leadership of the Democratic Party right now. They're not the problem. The problem is the voters. What we need to do is replace 300 million voters

Over $810.5M in U.S. Small Business Administration disaster assistance is available to homeowners, renters, nonprofits, and businesses of all sizes affected by the wildfires in Southern California. Apply now ➡️ ca.gov/LAfires

Where you at Dems ? You fighting to get them far better severance or going to ignore them, and all others in similar circumstances?

Trump: China… I don’t even know that they’re a member of BRICS

GREAT response to Vance’s speech.

NOAA is reportedly on the DOGE chopping block. The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US. A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Again, this isn't about efficiency.

My wife has given me a Valentine's Day envelope addressed to "pudq'snH," which any true devotee of Star Trek will tell you is a Klingon term of endearment, meaning "The One I Will Kill Last," introduced in the classic Next Generation epis- What? (flips envelope 180 degrees) Ohhhhh riiiight got it

Elon Musk’s DOGE just posted classified U.S. intelligence data on its website, and officials are scrambling, HuffPost reports.

This was always Trump’s plan. Art of the Steal.

Russian state TV celebrates Trump 'sawing through the western world'

This is just insane and you all know that, right? Unelected, unfettered, untouchable, unsupported by facts and completely without transparency: www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

NEWS via @carolleonnig.bsky.social Whistleblowers come forward to say Kash Patel directed the purge of FBI employees -- and misled Congress in his confirmation hearing for FBI Director. Senator Durbin asking watchdog to investigate.

"No. It's the children who are wrong."

Major cuts to programs that millions rely on, all to finance another round of tax cuts that will disproportionately benefit the wealthy and big corporations. Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.

Hello he lied will work in all instances.

You cannot make this up. DOGE's crusade isn't about government efficiency. It's about making Elon Musk richer at your expense.

Rep. Dan Goldman: It’s somewhat laughable for him to refer to all Democrats as corrupt when he’s taken over control of government contracts when he himself receives billions from them. But because he’s not an official government employee, he can evade the standard conflict of interest rules...

Pillaging Medicaid to pay for armored Teslas.

AG Bondi announced the DOJ has filed charges against the State of New York, Gov. Kathy Hochul, AG Letitia James, and DMV Commissioner Mark Schroeder. "New York has chosen to prioritize illegal aliens over American citizens. It stops — it stops TODAY."

This is Oligarchy. The three richest men in the world have become $196 BILLION richer since Donald Trump was elected. $196 billion for three men in 99 days. Meanwhile, 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

It's not complicated. They're just trying to stop women from being able to vote.

When Trump took office, the NLRB had 24 separate investigations into Musk’s corporations for violating workers’ rights. But presto...Trump fired three officials at that agency, effectively stalling the board's ability to rule on cases. See how this works?

DOGE's chaos isn't preventing waste — it's causing it. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This says it all

And there it is. Republicans have proposed a $4 trillion debt limit increase. Four trillion dollars.

My 93 year old grandfather looks more alive during a nap.

I think I've found a way to articulate what bothers me about the trajectory of the modern tech industry (and to some extent... society). We are on this Earth to provide for each other. That's the "mission" of humanity as I see it. This is incompatible with what the tech industry seeks to do.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Wasn’t it just a week ago that we were supposed to get a 30-day pause? And now, suddenly, he’s focused on steel and aluminum imports? No one in Canada is surprised. Did anyone actually believe this guy? That his word meant anything? He’s a criminal.
