“Now, 30 years later, the Russian government is stepping up a wartime campaign to do the opposite: seizing private businesses, this time in the name of national security.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/w...

House Republicans who were willing to hold town halls back home this week got an earful. At events from Georgia and Wisconsin to Oklahoma and Oregon, many of them faced hostile crowds furious about the sweeping budget cuts & mass firings of federal workers that Trump and Musk’s DOGE is carrying out.

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.

Strong statement by retired Rear Admiral Mike Smith, President of NSL4A: "National Security Leaders for America strongly condemns the removal of senior military officers without just cause. ... Removing experienced leaders with meritorious records weakens the force and emboldens America’s enemies."

Not sure what set him off but Donald Trump is big mad at MSNBC. Irony is lost on him as he's the biggest threat to democracy.

The DOJ is investigating UnitedHealthcare over billing fraud to funnel extra payments to Medicare Advantage plans, the Wall Street Journal reports. UnitedHealthcare shares have already dropped 9% since the story broke.

Our president is one petty little cunt.

this is from a new report on a “third way” on DEI and it is unbelievably naive, which in my view is emblematic of the author, rich kahlenberg, whose willingness to extend good faith to obvious bad faith actors borders on gullibility www.progressivepolicy.org/a-way-out-of...

A whole generation of early career scientists and physician-scientists, including colleagues and myself, are particularly vulnerable to these funding freezes and cuts, with jobs and careers depending on federal grants. #IDsky #Medsky #Episky www.science.org/content/arti...

Rep. Fitzgerald was booed by his own voters at a town hall after trying to defend DOGE's mass layoffs by referencing "waste, fraud, and abuse". Turns out, they’re not buying it.

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

An invitation to Russia by a high-level KGB official in 1987 under the guise of a preliminary scouting trip to build a Trump hotel in Moscow, was in fact 'deep development' by KGB handlers that furthered creating secret back channels and allowed the Russians to… www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

“A former senior Soviet KGB spy chief has claimed that Donald Trump was recruited as a spy by Russian intelligence as early as 38 years ago by his department, and given the codename ‘Krasnov’.”

Abuse of power is disgusting. This cruel rapist must be removed from power or we’re all fucked. Even maga. He doesn’t give a shit about anyone now that he’s consolidated power for nefarious ways.
