BREAKING - The Dow just had its worst drop since March 2020 — at the beginning of Covid Back then it was a pandemic mismanaged by Trump Now it’s tariffs and inflation mismanaged by Trump Watch out — Trump is giving America economic Covid

You know this is 100% going to happen…

Trump just ordered the DOJ to eliminate the police misconduct database. Imagine losing your child to police brutality &finding out the officer had a violent history that wasn't tracked. That’s what happened to Eric Garners family. The officer who killed him had many complaints before that fatal day.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

More of this. The fuck are you doing promoting a book when the country is falling apart?

I've had a lot of requests for it, so I will post it first tonight! Thanks, @chriswarcraft.bsky.social, for talking with us today about confronting MAGA, getting arrested in California, @protecthb.bsky.social, and fighting the good fight! #Spotlight Interview! soundcloud.com/user-5879035...

Sheriff Derek Osborne did something routine: He released a man from jail after he’d served his sentence. But ICE wanted him to hold the man past his release date so the federal agency could arrest and deport him. Now the DOJ is threatening to prosecute the sheriff for failing to cooperate with ICE.

Just held a town hall with the Wisconsin Farmers Union. They invited all the elected officials in the area. Unfortunately, no Republicans showed up, including Rep. Van Orden and Rep. Tiffany. youtube.com/shorts/R3_X8...

Last Fall, the Washington Post allowed a right wing group to run a full page ad falsely attacking me for protecting voting rights. Today, Bezos' paper won't accept ads criticizing Elon Musk. Support pro-democracy media. www.democracydocket.com/me-subscribe...

No surprise here

NEW: The Department of Education told employees late Friday that they must review and terminate all programs, contracts and policies that affirm the existence of transgender people. By @jodiscohen.bsky.social and @jsmithrichards.bsky.social

Musk's "deferred resignation" contract is a TRAP. Anyone who signs it WAIVES all rights to pursue legal action against the government -- including TO ENFORCE THE RESIGNATION AGREEMENT ITSELF. So Musk and Trump can just break the contract, and there's nothing you can do.

LIVE: Denver, CO — For the second time this week, Coloradans are showing up in large numbers to protest the Trump administration's policies, including the escalated rate of arrests and deportations occurring across the country due to the 10 executive orders President Trump signed re: immigration.

Because this is getting downplayed in some of the coverage, the racist staffer DOGE rehired isn’t a case of “stupid things he wrote years ago as a teen.” He posted about how we should “normalize Indian hate” IN SEPTEMBER.

Ooo this is a good one ☺️

This week in Washington, Trump said we should take over Gaza and Musk shut down USAID. I've announced plans to introduce the ELON MUSK Act to fight back. Watch below: youtu.be/gJrptYrDtSA

It looks like Elon Musk wants your Social Security number and may be coming for your benefits next! Stop the Elon Grift!

Elon Musk gets $20+ billion in federal contracts while he slashes and burns the federal government. My ELON MUSK Act will prevent “special government employees” like him from ripping off American taxpayers. www.wisn.com/article/wisc...

'So Much for Lowering Costs': Fury Over Musk's Death Wish for CFPB That Returned Over $20 Billion to Consumers | "The richest man in the world wants to shut down an agency that keeps people like him from ripping off the rest of us," said @repcasar.bsky.social www.commondreams.org/news/musk-cf...

Sounds... efficient? "There are no more civil servants now than there were in the late 1960s, even as the population they serve has grown by two-thirds." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Costco, which has come out saying it supports DEI, will make no changes to its existing programs, AND pays workers a minimum of $30/hour, is up 15% YTD. Target, which announced it is ending all DEI programs and has a minimum wage of $15-$24/hour, is down over 4%. Keep voting with your wallet.

Exclusive: "It's chaos." The world's most sophisticated weather agency struggles to comprehend what it's supposed to do now. By @laurenthal.bsky.social and @weathersullivan.bsky.social 🎁🔗: www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Trump said drug dealers should get “the death penalty” but I guess a full and unconditional pardon is basically the same thing.

Shane Lamond, a former lieutenant in the Washington, D.C. police department, was found guilty in federal court of tipping off a Proud Boys leader about a warrant and then repeatedly lying to federal investigators about it.

Okay they’re still voting on stuff. The Gaetz report is supposed to be released once voting is finished. Also, right on for passing the Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act.

Pretty wild that Elon’s debut as president elect was to strip funding for pediatric cancer research from the spending bill, only to watch the Senate have to pass it as a standalone bill. His first move was to fuck over kids with cancer.

Good one.

ONLY AN ABSOLUTE HORROR OF A HUMAN BEING WOULD DO THIS… Republicans slashed $200 million for childhood cancer research—a program created with bipartisan support under Obama—from the CR bill. Why? Because Elon Musk told them to.

President Musk is handed a defeat before he officially takes office. He is going to scold VP Trump for failing to follow through on his directives

A far-right congresswoman was heckled into silence Thursday during a speech on the House floor after blaming Democrats for the drama surrounding a looming government shutdown.

For the media that are trying to buy Trump‘s good will with more favorable coverage, it’s not a one time payment. They’re on his good side only until the next story he resents. And that shows its society as a whole that’s actually footing the bill

Trump says he's wants to privatize USPS because it's "unprofitable". Reminder that the Post Office isn't a for-profit enterprise: it's a public service that guarantees everyone in America reliable, affordable, and universal mail service.

Wasn’t this the guy that House Republicans hung a lot of their anti-Hunter nonsense and conspiracies on? Will there be any acknowledgment from, or apology from, House Republicans? Of. Course. Not

Americans are at risk of being sucked into Trump’s delusions again. For the media to continually allow Trump to lie and manipulate unchecked is gross professional malpractice
