Why is the Media still going to White House press events? Just stop going. Boycott. Or at least start asking better questions and challenging the answers.

So I’m confused. I just went to look at the Doge website which is just hawking the coin. Then I found the notice of the establishment of Doge on 1/20. All it talks about is software and technology. Nothing about cutting jobs or costs or programs or agencies.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social on Mike Johnson considering conditioning disaster aid: "Never in California did we question whether or not we, as taxpayers in the largest state in the Union, should support the people of Louisiana at a time of emergency and need. We’d never condition it."

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million. That is a lie. The budget was actually increased by $50 million.

We are asking Ukrainians to defeat the armies of Putin and Kim Jong Un. In their efforts to do so, Ukrainians helped bring down Assad. Ukrainian resistance is one of the most stunning military achievements in modern history.

President-elect Donald Trump has praised the polio vaccine as the “greatest thing,” but a lawyer affiliated with Trump’s pick to lead the country’s top heath agency has petitioned the US Food and Drug Administration to revoke approval of the vaccine used in the United States.

We work with numerous telemedicine providers who do advanced provision. I would recommend that everyone who cares and can afford to do so order at least three doses of medication abortion to keep on hand in case someone you know and love--or someone you don't know--might need it.

When I was a platoon leader, I had two trans Soldiers in my platoon; two of the most motivated & high-quality Soldiers I’ve observed. Around 15k service members are trans. Expelling trained & capable SM’s harms national security. Most importantly, it’s immoral & goes against our national values.

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of them are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

What does a group of privileged white male politicians know about oppression? Republicans pushed a bill firing all workers in offices related to DEI - because according to them, diversity oppresses white men. I gave a vocabulary lesson on the meaning of oppression. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCwO...

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting. Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

When I think about Joe & Mika appeasing Trump so they can maintain their comfy lives, I think about Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss enduring years of harassment for simply doing their jobs. So when Joe defends it by saying people need to live in the real world, he should respectfully go screw himself.
