He nails it.

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

I can’t find the post however, I read a great idea earlier. All of these fired: generals, JAG, scientists, etc, need to form a coalition to combat what we are witnessing daily in real time and form a plan. The majority of us will have their backs. IMO, something similar to the Underground Railroad.

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

🚨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!

Jamie Raskin: "Given that I was marching at age 3, you know I’m not letting any coup-plotting, election-denying, insurrection-supplying autocrat, kleptocracy, plutocrat or theocrat, or any techno-feudalist Silicon Valley broligarchs aspiring dictator, turn me around now.” Amen!!

In a 4-3 ruling, the Wisconsin Supreme Court dismissed a right-wing legal challenge that sought to limit the authority of municipalities to designate early absentee voting locations and prevent future use of a mobile voting van deployed by the city of Racine during the 2022 election cycle.

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

Ok blue states, it’s go time. Time to hire federal workers and reforge the decimated federal departments within the states to the extent possible. Especially alphabet agents. Give them state badges and a mandate to uncover domestic terrorism. National coordination between states is a must, ASAP.

Welcome back, Cathy.

Quite an exchange here between Judge Reyes and DOJ attorney on how "pronoun usage" affects military readiness.

This gives me joy.

Glacier National Park isn’t just a breathtaking landscape—it’s a living testament to the hard work of federal employees who care for our public lands. From park rangers & forestry crews to dedicated biologists, these individuals ensure that our natural treasures endure for future generations.

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

The amount of secondhand embarrassment I have even just watching this is through the roof.

The craziest part about the AEW ring being smaller is how Linda McMahon is likely going to be installed as the new Secretary of Education and programs for disabled teens trying to transition from high school to the workforce are being cut. 🤼‍♂️

An important point to keep in mind.

Here is my Federal Employment Termination story:

That’s why people put them in the White House, right? To convene meetings about golf.

Absolutely beautiful tribute. #SNL50 #50Years youtu.be/fXAbLeJyB0o?...
