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.

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.

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

They just now noticed?

Trump administration plans mass firing at office that funds homelessness programs www.npr.org/2025/02/22/g...

Modern-Day Peaceful Protest… TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea. The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.

Up late watching the hockey last night, but still at his desk before 7:00 am. hard working cat!

A great thing happened at the Capitol today: Gov. Sanders signed SB59 into law, making universal free breakfast for AR kids a reality. This is big. This matters to AR kids & their families-full stomachs and no stigma. Every R, D, & advocate who worked to make this happen deserves our gratitude.

I’m not saying we should all panic. But maybe the government shouldn’t shut down all the systems we have for monitoring this situation. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

YOU’RE GODDAMN RIGHT CANADA WON.

Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

The House GOP budget plan that Trump has endorsed would cut Medicaid by about 10% and cut SNAP by about 20%. At the same time it would increase the deficit by $2.8 trillion to pay for tax cuts, mainly for the rich.

VP Vance and #Ohio's Senators John Husted & Bernie Moreno want to throw nearly 3M Ohioans off Medicaid FCS! That's 25% of Ohioans And the healthcare workers, pharmacists, etc who serve those 3M people could lose their jobs This is a disaster in the making Use @5calls.org and call Husted & Vance

If Trump voters were the only ones who had to suffer the consequences, I’d be okay with that. Unfortunately, people who voted AGAINST Trump will also be hurt when needed government services are cut, or when Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security benefits are slashed to pay for tax cuts for the rich.

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

Alaska has the fourth-highest number of federal workers per capita—fish & game, forestry, and more—their jobs are being cut under the excuse of “poor performance.” Lisa Murkowski knows that’s a lie—so why won’t she just say, it’s a lie. Collins, Burchett, and the rest are just giving lip service.

Wife was a probationary employee let go over the weekend. She was a researcher with CMMI. If anyone has leads on jobs for a PhD social science researcher with an expertise in Medicare, Medicaid, and private health insurance, please let me know!

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

It’s not a coincidence—it’s a warning.

Yes!

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

You aren’t seeing Black folks at protests because we know Trump will use us as an excuse to start violence—to justify martial law. Black folks, stay home. Be in peace. Our time will come. Everyone else, peacefully protest, but understand we won’t be human shields or targets! Don’t ask that of us.

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.

Can you say..IDIOT!

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!!

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

Senior DOJ prosecutor quit after being told to investigate Biden climate spending, sources say www.cnn.com/2025/02/18/p.... here we go!

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

@raskin.house.gov: "The whole anti-corruption crusade is an absolute fraud. They started by decimating the ranks of the inspectors general. These are the people whose job is actually, day in and day out, 365 days a year, to ferret out waste, fraud and abuse in the departments and the agencies."
