When the wreckage and dust of what these people are doing to our country has settled and the people have finally had enough to throw these jackals out of office, we will never forget the people who enabled it, despite their protestations they weren’t willing accomplices. Never.

In addition to Congress being the place that makes the laws, pretty key thing, the constitution explicitly says Congress gets to create the postal system. It’s not left implied that that comes under law making generally. The President has no power to unilaterally abolish it and move it to commerce.

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.

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

Agreeing to any deal with the United States right now would not be in Ukraine's interest. Extorting Ukraine for it's natural resources is the economics of colonialism.

Real leaders don't blame others. Real leaders accept responsibility for solving problems and the fault of the ones they created. Donald Trump never has nor ever will be a leader.

Democrats need to learn how to fight tough. Take the gloves off. Republicans for three decades have demonstrated that they don't deserve anything less.

"Hochul is dithering about whether to use her powers. AOC, in contrast, exercised her 1st Amendment rights to inform her constituents about their 4th Amendment rights. In doing so, she showed that the administration is tyrannical. She also showed that it’s weak — if you’re willing to confront it."

Jeez, I wonder why an organization that has people living undercover in hundreds of countries around the world would want to recruit “diverse” individuals? The stupidity is breathtaking. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

Good riddance to a man who deliberately damaged the United States, all in pursuit of power for the Republican Party.

Pete Hegseth is about to purge military officers—and make no mistake, this is 100% political retribution. 📌 Sec of Defense Pete Hegseth is planning to fire generals and top officers as soon as this week, per two Defense officials and three Congressional sources. Most of them tied to Lloyd Austin.

Real talk - If you are a member of Congress and are warned of death threats, I'm genuinely sorry, that's terrible. But the response is not to surrender and change your vote. It's to run to EVERY CAMERA YOU CAN FIND and say "I am receiving death threats for doing my job." Christ.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

Fuck him. He is selling us out and breaking America from the inside. All for the benefit of our biggest adversary Russia. I wonder how much of the data DOGE is stealing is going there.

“At least Russia has elections” Russia frequently jails and kills any opposition to Putin, who has been in power since 1999. If you like dictatorships, that’s fine. Just admit that. Don’t insult anyone’s intelligence—including your own—by claiming Russia has real elections.

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!!

Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

We are enduring the final dismantling of the democratic achievements of the progressive generations of the1930s/40s & 1960s - which began - yes began - under Carter and Clinton. When will Dems and Labor truly wake up and remember who they and we are?

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat. Now is a time for courage. www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...
