Federal judges on Friday delivered a series of rulings that could challenge President Donald Trump's agenda, with the news coming in quick succession. Judges temporarily blocked plans to fast-track deportations and to dismantle Voice of America and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

How can we make this happen?!?!?

Chuck Schumer is a long term GOP sleeper agent. Prove me wrong.

Let me tell you a little story…….

Schumer’s decision is an unconscionable surrender that shows he does not have what it takes to meet this moment, and the charade he pulled yesterday makes it even worse. Time for new leadership in the Democratic Party.

This hits hard… “Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.” You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

ATTN HHS EMPLOYEES: Firing notices are going out. I am in receipt of an email saying they will revoke your access as soon as you read the email that you've been fired.

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons: -We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. -The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous. 🧵⬇️

🚨🚨🚨 Trump just fired USAID inspector general Paul Martin—one day after he exposed how Trump’s foreign aid freeze & mass firings have made it easier for U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund terrorist groups like Hamas & ISIS.

I’m not sure how everyone didn’t see this coming.

That’s nothing. I found 13 contracts awarded to SpaceX since December totaling $77M. 1/

Nailed it 🏆

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

Damned DEI hire!

Nobody voted for this guy to run the country.

As of Friday afternoon, the outbreak has jumped to 14 confirmed cases and six probable cases among people who are symptomatic and had close contact with infected individuals, Zach Holbrooks, executive director of the South Plains Public Health District, told CNN.

Just wait until it all sinks in.

Masked agents knocking on doors, demanding that residents show IDs, and urging them to snitch on neighbors, while buses wait nearby to disappear people is full-fledged Nazi behavior.

The reckless decision to release billions of gallons of water from the Terminus and Schafer Dams is already hurting farms and farmers. It’s a massive waste. I'm demanding answers from the Army Corps of Engineers about what happened. And why.

They just stranded thousands of Americans and their families around the world illegally. This is fucked up beyond belief. They nuked our entire foreign aid. China will fill the gap a happily.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency

So much evil in one photo it is actually staggering

Where the hell is Lin-Manuel Miranda? Why isn’t he, in full costume, outside the Treasury Department, right now, RAPPING?!

Musk 💯💯💯 rigged the election in the swing states. Harris actually won.

Anyone out there ever work in Treasury Payments? I'm curious if this is actually the case: The Secure Payment System (SPS) employs a strict separation of duties as a core security measure. The point of the ? Is to know how many people are required to approve a payment and where are they located

What will it take for people to see Republicans are not for working folks—and vote like it? Utah firefighters, cops & teachers are watching as GOP lawmakers move one step closer to killing their collective bargaining rights. Some of them backed Trump and GOP candidates. Now learning the hard way.

Apparently, allowing Americans to file their tax returns for free is a bad thing. A big gift to the Big Tax lobby and a big middle finger to Americans.

We have a cabal in power who are disregarding laws passed by Congress simply because they don’t like or agree with them. We are about to witness this cabal ignoring court rulings for the same reason. These are impeachable offenses, in violation of Art. II Take Care and Oath clauses

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

One of my party facts is that according to polls, Americans believe foreign aid is about 25% of the federal budget and on average that it *should* be about 10%. The actual number is less than 1%. Foreign aid has long been a boogey man of the right, so it's not surprising they're vilifying it now.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

The new acting Undersecretary of State for Public Diplomacy — State’s top public diplomacy official: 1) not only denies the Uyghur genocide but appears to applaud it 2) says the US should sell out Taiwan to China for concessions in Antarctica (???)

Elon Musk is a monster that is going to get people killed around the world.

this is theft on an unimaginable scale

WTF IS HAPPENING!!! Why is a bi-polar pot-smoking immigrant taking over the nation’s payment systems???? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
