Trump’s numbers on US & European aid to Ukraine are completely fabricated — Europe has given more to Ukraine and the US hasn’t reached anywhere near $350 billion.

Democrats should go to all these ruby red and vulnerable GOP districts where voters are upset at Trump and Musk and court them. Full court press.

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

So, I'll say this: just this morning we got two polls showing Trump and Musk underwater with the public. So, yes, all this shit is terrifying, and yes, we're all at incredible risk. But they're moving fast because it turns out people don't like this shit, and we shouldn't lose sight of that.

President Donald Trump's administration targeted bank regulators, rocket scientists and tax enforcers for dismissal, as a federal judge gave the green light for its unprecedented remaking of the US civil service, at least for now reut.rs/4b805ee

Let's get this straight. Trump took credit for stock market and job gains under Biden— But inflation during his presidency? Not his fault. Got 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.

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Is there a word for feeling and acting like you’re in shock even though you knew what is happening was going to happen? Because that seems like what a lot of us are experiencing.

I’m the dairy farmer running to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

Hear me out — If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is. Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.

I do not recall a 24 hour or one week news cycle with more disturbing news about the state of the presidency and the US government in it than those of today and the past seven days. January 6 was nothing compared to this. But make no mistake, this too is the gov't being torn apart by a mob of thugs.

I’m going to say it again for the trolls on here who have trouble listening the first time: James Earl “Jimmy” Carter Jr was ten times the man Donald Trump was every day of his life, ten times the Christian, and ten times the president. I said what I said. Good day.

Dear Joe, I know it feels really wrong to order your AG to release a Special Counsel report because that’s been a bad thing to do for so long. But the Supreme Court says it’s okay now. It’s legal. It’s an official act. So go ahead, Mr. President. It’s normal now. ~ Everyone

I wonder when people are going to wake up to the fact that the world order collapsing into open snatch and grab colonial fascism and the media is mainstreaming it.

This is the year 2025 and the incoming felon elect of United States of America was just asked by the press in all seriousness, if he was going to “use military force to acquire Canada.” Military force to acquire Fucking Canada!!!!! This is where we are now. Holy fucking shit.

The idea that Bluesky is insular and X is a place for diverse views is a fallacy. X is based on an algorithm rigged to push the views of Musk and others on the far right. Bluesky is open. You can make it whatever you want it to be.

It’s kind of wild we witnessed multiple bomb threats traced to foreign adversaries and targeting polling stations in key swing states, and we’re all kind of like, “Well, that’s just a thing that happens now.”

The idea that release of the Gaetz ethics report would be a breach of protocol is beyond laughable when we are talking about a breach-of-protocol-nomination of someone so supremely unqualified in experience & ethics to be the AG.
