Oliver Darcy has some very good points here

No more work-from-home, government workers, except for Kash Patel, who will run the FBI from Las Vegas www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Breaking it, then profiting off the *fix* The same way they profit off of education privatization… health care… etc… They count on you not realizing it. You are their piggy bank.

Welcome to “the Golden Era”

How it started / How it’s going

Jessica: Hakeem Jeffries gave a press conference today. He had two signs. One says Elon Musk is making $8 million a day in government contracts. The average medicaid recipient gets $65 a day..

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I think what we're going to see is the conservative numbers in Canada drop because people are looking at the destruction that Trump is unleashing and Canadians are thinking, 'If this is what MAGA looks like, there's no damn way we're going to vote for it in Canada.'

Please enjoy my last ever post at Climate.gov/ENSO Blog. This afternoon I was fired by the Trump Administration 15 days before my 2yr probationary period ended on March 13. I have worked at NOAA since 2010, and I'm so incredibly proud of the work I did. If anyone wants a quote, let me know.

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge ordered Trump officials with knowledge of the workings of billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to testify under oath in a lawsuit challenging the faux agency’s access to sensitive governmental databases. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Prime Minister Starmer humiliates Donald Trump on live television. He shut him up and fact checked him mid sentence. Trump sat there shoulders slumped nodding his head. #StandWithUkraine

"Most of EPA’s work happens behind the scenes, like when one of its enforcement teams raided a warehouse in Colorado full of mislabeled oil barrels that had been prepared for a landfill and discovered they contained nuclear waste..." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/27/o...

Are you ready to put away your wallet tomorrow? I’m all in!

Remember: Tomorrow is our Economic Blackout! Buy Nothing. But keep washing your chickens.

The economic black out is tomorrow. I'm participating.

THIS is the pilot you want in this environment.

When science and scientists are sidelined, people get hurt—join the tens of thousands of people who have signed the open letter. #3E

Donald Trump said he wants to deport rapists and sex traffickers. Turns out he's now importing them.

Donald Trump just helped free Andrew Tate from his rape and human trafficking charges. Tate has bragged about grabbing women by their necks, breaking their jaws, and said “I am absolutely a misogynist.”

We should be writing Project 2029—defining the society we want, clearly and publicly. Let’s start today.

This is going to hurt lot of vets who happen to be Republicans. I’m sure their Reps in Congress won’t mind a few thousand more phone calls from vets irate about Musk.

Proud of the work my law firm did in this case! "An Arizona judge dismissed a lawsuit seeking to upend election policies in Yavapai County. The decision delivered a blow to a right-wing organization founded by Stephen Miller which brought the challenge." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

“Trump is consolidating power within the White House, and while the scope of his actions is unprecedented, the idea underpinning them is not. It’s the unitary executive theory, albeit on a wild amount of steroids @atrupar.com open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...

This is evil. Pure evil.

New in PN: EPA head wants to steal $20B of green "Zeldin's ridiculous lie is being used to justify an illegal expropriation of funds in contravention of the Constitution, which gives Congress the power of the purse, & the will of the people as expressed through their congressional representatives"

Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker. Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.

Crockett: Mr. President, guess what? Russia invaded Ukraine. Can we at least agree on that one? Facts matter. Is there anybody in here that has enough courage to say Russia invaded Ukraine? …. Crockett: This is the problem

♿Social Security is NOT just for Seniors. It's also for people like me with Disabilities, people who receive Survivors Benefits & Veterans who receive Social Security benefits. Before I became disabled, I PAID into the program with EVERY paycheck. There are MILLIONS more like me & it is OUR MONEY!♿

Wow! This dude is clueless… Republican Rep. Mark Alford tries to calm his constituents down—who just lost their federal jobs—by telling them God has a plan and he’s confident they’ll find new work and be able to provide for their families.

Amazing information on Social Security & its safeguards & self-audits. REAL INFORMATION, not made-up fake news. www.cbpp.org/blog/setting...

BREAKING: Two sources tell @theprospect.bsky.social that the acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration has asked for a plan for cuts to 50% of the workforce, including at the 1,200 field offices that serve millions of beneficiaries. prospect.org/health/socia...

BREAKING Project 2025 leader and current OMB head Russ Vought directs all agencies to create plans for large-scale layoffs ("Reductions in Force") by March 13.

Welcome spies and assassins.

Meidas Touch host Brett Meiselas spoke with Newsweek about the podcast's rise, shifting political tides and what they want to do next.

Book Ban: Trump Floats Law to Target Books Critical of Him Trump continues to attack free speech

Trump: This country has gotten bloated and fat and disgusting

“During a Tuesday interview on MSNBC, …Conway opined that Republicans ‘just want to burn it all down. … It is an attempt to destroy what they perceive to be as the enemy, which is the very government that they are charged with administering.’”

Trump: "We're gonna be selling a gold card. You have a green card, this is a gold card. We're gonna put a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you green card privileges, plus. It's gonna be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country."

AOC: The order has come down to this committee. Find $880 billion to pay for a tax cuts on yachts, jets, billionaires, and mega corporations while working class people pay higher tax rates than Facebook does. Undocumented immigrants pay more in taxes than many large corporations

Senior WH Correspondent for Fox News.

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

While Republicans claim their deficit-busting budget will be solved by Elon Musk’s cuts. Embarrassing. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/u...

NEW: I just asked Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett if she had a message to Elon Musk. What would she say to him? Here was her answer: “Fuck off.”

Reporter: Who is the administrator of DOGE? White House secretary: “I’m not going to reveal the name of that person from this podium…”

Just as I predicted, once no other media organization stood with AP (other than issuing statements) this was the next step. And when you bow down to this, there will be another step taken to erode press freedoms. If you don’t fight for your rights, you lose them. Started / Going
