Republicans in Tennessee are now trying to gatekeep education.

Too bad those aren’t mug shots.

Oh man I really enjoyed knowing what the weather would be #IStandWithNOAA #SaveNOAA #WeatherStrike

about sums it up

Hamilton canceled its shows at the Kennedy Center because of Donald Trump. “Our show simply cannot, in good conscience, participate and be a part of this new culture that is being imposed on the Kennedy Center. Therefore, we have cancelled the third engagement of Hamilton at the Kennedy Center.” 👊

Some federal workers are going back to work. The USDA has been ordered to temporarily give over 5,000 workers their jobs back. Dozens of CDC scientists have been reinstated after being illegally fired. The National Science Foundation has rehired half of the workers it fired.

Hochul: I convened a roundtable of farmers who are desperately fearful that this is going to kill their livelihood. They export most of their products to Canada; they get a lot of supplies—their fertilizer all comes in from Canada—this is going to crush the livelihoods of people who supported them.

It’s the “people of Gaza,” not Hamas, whom der Orangepsychodummkopfidiotführer declares will be “TOT.” Lebensraum for die Real-Estate Endlösung, anyone?

If this is how Canadians, some of the most friendly people in the world, feel about Trump's demeaning shit talking, then guess how the rest of the world feels about America now.

Musk states "the fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy". Charles Darwin, who actually researched this stuff, showed it was empathy, specifically, that enabled humanity to flourish.

And generally speaking, lack of empathy is a central characteristic of people with one or more Cluster B personality disorders.

The White House is chock-full of people who should be institutionalized in some public facilities other than the White House.

Last night I stood up for those who need Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Democrats will never abandon the fight to make sure every American has a safe, healthy, and financially secure life. #ISaidWhatISaid

BREAKING: Appeals court grants Trump’s request to remove Hampton Dellinger as head of the Office of Special Counsel as litigation over his firing continues. The court did not offer an explanation for its decision. Dellinger is likely to appeal.

One thing Trump didn't talk about last night: his plans to abandon American women’s right to abortion care in medical emergencies. I wonder why he wouldn't want anyone to know that.

This actually tells you a lot.

Corrupt Supreme Court, corrupt White House, corrupt Congress. Corruption abounds.

One more time for the people in the back.

I will become an anarchist.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” Theodore Roosevelt

Disappointing and needs to be reversed. The benefits of air monitoring far outweigh the costs. U.S. State Department Shuts Down Pollution Monitoring Abroad www.nytimes.com/2025/03/04/c...

Well, that speech by 47 last night was a complete shitshow, in case you were wondering. I hope and trust most of you didn’t watch, so I’ve distilled what matters and have thoughts about his presidency. Link to my write-up: buff.ly/C2wFI6E

Very normal things happening in MAGA right now

It blows my mind that there are Trump supporters who also claim that they support Ukraine. You can’t be both.

Trump ALWAYS lies to us!

Trump and Musk are allowing South Carolina to burn! 🔥

DOGE math

This.

This reality show premise of finding the dumbest MFer in the country and making him president isn’t going well. Season 1 sucked. Season 2 is much worse.

LIAR IN CHIEF

Absolutely stunning. Trump to Chief Justice Roberts: "Thank you again. Thank you again. I won't forget."

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

WTF?!?!?!!

The real State of the Union…

Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "This is not America. This is a terrible nightmare. Somebody slap me and wake me the f*ck up because I'm ready to get on with it." Jasmine is all of us.

It’s more than just evidence; it’s essentially a confession of judgment.

To paraphrase Ben Meiselas @meiselasb.bsky.social of @meidastouch.com: A *true* Alpha protects the weakest members of the pack. It doesn't attack them. #meidasmighty

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Calls for mandatory death penalty for anyone who murders a police officer. Dems loudly and vocally yell about Jan 6th and Capitol Police

🔥🔥🔥

oops.

Does anyone really believe Elon Musk says these things at random, without a plan for what’s next?

Oooooof, @tomscocca.bsky.social hits the bullseye with this one. "After Uvalde, people talked and talked, in rage and disbelief, about what they would have done if only they'd been there. Here we all are. Now what?"

Somebody needs to stuff a sock in this woman’s mouth, because I’m tired of hearing the idiocy she spouts.

Fox Business interviewed the owner of a Pennsylvania auto dealership who says of Trump's tariffs, "nobody is gonna buy the truck, because it just had $20,000 price increase ... this is pretty radical." The show then cut back to Maria Bartiromo, who threw a tantrum.

Nancy Mace is an idiot
