WaPo Page One: “If you’re going to just yell at me, that’s not going to be an effective town hall,” McCormick said .. “But we’re pissed!” a woman shouted. #GA07 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

He nails it.

Look at all this bad economic news from past week. Yet corporate media is intentionally ignoring this. Consumer confidence is down among even Republicans since January. Trump is on way to causing the US a recession.

🚨🚨🚨 NEW Reuters Poll: Trump's disapproval rating spikes by 10 points since inauguration. • %51 now disapprove of Trump's presidency • %39 now disapprove of Trump's handling of economy The resistance is working. 👀 www.reuters.com/data/trumps-...

Ruhle: The left-leaning podcast MeidasTouch has just done the unthinkable—dethroned Joe Rogan to become the country’s most popular podcast…

HOLY SHIT you guys, check out this AMAZING song, Hostile Government Takeover, by @agiftfromtodd! He's singing truth, and this tune slaps. Give it a listen and repost to share.🙏💪

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

I stand for Zelensky and against Trump.

Watch Maria learn on-air Trump is blatantly lying about Zelensky approval numbers…

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

We the People are pissed! #50501movement #FiftyFiftyOne #BuildTheResistance #PoliticalRevolution #NoVoiceUnheard #NoKings #VoicesOfFlorida #VoicesUnheard @polrev.bsky.social

Happy Presidents' Day to the two best presidents of my lifetime. 💕

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

Imagine being so pathologically reckless and instinctively contemptuous of public service that you accidentally fire nuclear scientists

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.

Good on her! 🔥 Courage is needed right now! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...

The conservative-leaning Wall Street Journal questions Trump’s basic intelligence in new editorial. “Consumer prices keep rising… Does President Trump understand money? The answer would appear to be no.”

I'll point out that even threatened tariffs can cause price increases as firms accelerate orders/demand in the face of constant supply.

Bernie Sanders: "They will use the enormous media operations they own to deflect attention away from the impact of their policies while they entertain us to death."

Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed. Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly. Yet another reason he must be rejected.

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

This article gives an excellent overview of the impact on universities and US research will be if the announced cuts to NIH indirect cost rates hold. Not good www.forbes.com/sites/brucel...

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.

It's not that courts won't save us, it's that they *can't.* What Trump and Musk are doing are somewhat beyond what a branch of government with no enforcement power can stop. The court orders are important, but they will never be enough. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/poli...
