Did Trump just make me a fan of fucking PERKINS COIE?!

Shame them, each and every boot licking one of ‘em.

you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.

I don’t know how @wired.com became the best source for American political reporting but bless ‘em for it. If able, please consider subscribing; we need more journalists pushing, questioning, and actually investigating instead of prostrating themselves for access.

warner is 72 and has been serving in the senate since 2009. get him out

When he’s right, he’s right.

it's working, keep going

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

Democratic Party leadership putting on a masterclass in quiet quitting

I think that Democrats should boycott the State of the Union, which is pointless. Instead, of having a Democrat provide the rebuttal, they should bring in recently fired federal workers to describe the important work they used to do.

A disgraceful day.

Obama and Biden may think they are honoring the office of the presidency by keeping quiet at a moment like this — if so that’s just preening vanity — they owe it to the office and to the Republic that until last month it served to speak up loudly and clearly and without relent.

We apologize to our Ukrainian supporters. We are embarrassed by how our president and vice president have behaved. We are fighting to redeem the soul of America. 🇺🇸

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 ✊

Trump’s disgusting behavior in our Oval Office in the company of a genuine hero and defender of democracy like Volodymyr Zelensky may be the most disgraceful public behavior by any president in our history.

“Why do they keep comparing us to Nazis?!” www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

This is how it’s done.

the fact that this is just a straightforward retelling of yesterday's events without hyperbole

Our City’s HR department operates a wellness program that just sent my department a basket of apples to promote healthy eating and heart health. This must be the exorbitant fraud, waste, and abuse I keep hearing about, unjustly enriching government employees. I sure hope DOGE doesn’t find out.

Welp. Add Airbnb to the boycott list. www.newsweek.com/airbnb-joe-g...

Tomorrow is a national protest day in the US. Protests are organized at the White House and state capitals, but if you can’t find an event or time that works for you, go when and where you can. If there is no event organizer, you are the event organizer. Announce it below,👇 hashtags #3E #USProtests

No one would question it if you said this was a quotation from Hitler, Mussolini, Putin, or Pinochet. This is the mindset of a dictator who considers himself above the law.

l'etat c'est moi

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social Why did you delete your last post? It DOES take fucking gall to say what he said, as does every action this administration is taking. A LOT of us want this bullshit called out more aggressively for what it is, please keep it up and don’t tone it down.

I truly believe there isn’t enough serious discussion around the idea of secession and a national divorce. Nations, states, and borders, even the very idea of them, have changed all throughout history. It wasn’t that long ago, in the grand arc of our planet, that this country was 13 small colonies.

Opinion | With Democrats expelled from power, we are finally liberated from the language police. Here's why the AP must be punished for not saying "Gulf of America."

Fucking love this guy.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Valor Danielle Sassoon, Acting U.S. attorney for SDNY - refuses to drop Adams charges and resigns John Keller, Acting head of DOJ Public Integrity Section - refuses and resigns Kevin Driscoll, Acting head of DOJ Criminal Division - refuses and resigns www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Schumer and Jeffries gotta go. This administration is an existential threat to our system of democracy and the rule of law. We need a real opposition and we need it now.

Why isn’t every Democratic elected official out saying these things and doing the things Murphy is doing? Outside of AOC, Murphy, and Crockett, we aren’t hearing shit except Schumer making shitty jokes about the price of beer and guac going up before the Super Bowl.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.
