New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Y'all notice this hypocrisy? •Musk gets $20B+ in federal subsidies—is celebrated! •NPR gets ~$3M in federal grants—Trump wants to shut it down as "wasteful." This isn't democracy—it's autocracy & an all out war on free press. Here are two ways we can fight back: www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-war-on...

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

Trump is reportedly looking to shrink the FDIC and consolidate it into other govt agencies. The FDIC was created during the Depression to protect bank deposits. This would come after Trump and DOGE shuttered the CFPB, which protects us from financial fraud. See the pattern?

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

@seanjuandecali.bsky.social my first actual friend on here 💖

I'm trying to bring friends over here because I'm going to drop Facebook by the end of the month. Change is weird, especially when it's not a one for one like moving from Xitter to here.

Happy Black History Month, and yeah, we're still doing that.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

As far as I'm concerned, if keeping your vision for your film under budget requires A.I., you're admitting to the world that you suck at creative problem-solving.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.? In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

Congress is not the make a wish foundation for elderly members...OK maybe it is, but it shouldn't be!

Agree or disagree?

A collections agent for Wells Fargo is spilling the beans on Reddit about how terrible an idea it is for CFPB to allow Wells Fargo to handle its own mishandling of forbearance during loan modifications. www.reddit.com/r/WorkersStr...

Jeffries: In our nation's history, 25% of our nation's debt was accumulated during the four years of the former president, 25%. How dare you lecture America about fiscal responsibility ever.

Launched during the holiday-shopping rush, this could be the biggest union action against Amazon yet.

Here are the 6 MAGA extremists (and their public phone numbers) who have intro'd a bill to allow South Carolina to execute women who receive an abortion. If you haven't heard about SC H3537, it's because corporate media has ignored it. Here's how to fight back: www.qasimrashid.com/p/s-carolina...

How about this? TAX THE CHURCHES TAX THE RICH KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF OF SOCIAL SECURITY, MEDICARE and MEDICAID AND THE VA!!!!! Agree? ✋

As the oligarchy begins to take shape, this meme seems more prescient than ever. They have convinced you that immigrants are your enemy while they pick your pockets at the same time, you’ve been duped. It’s the billionaires who are ruining this country,not migrants. Always has been. #RiseAndResist

One of the lessons of the last month is that great wealth cannot buy courage but it can reveal cowardice.

A rule to live by: Never trust anyone who would rather raise the retirement age than make the rich contribute more to Social Security. #HandsOffOurSocialSecurity

It's not about celebrating murder. It's not about the absence of societal decency or morality. It's about loss of faith. People are losing faith in the rule of law. In its ability to hold the rich and powerful accountable. Keep gaslighting them at your own peril.

Trump expanding foreign operations of his family business allows him to use the Oval Office to maximize profits. This is a blatant conflict of interest. The Presidency is not a business endeavor.

I’ve reported on homelessness for years and met many, many people who have found themselves in awful situations Every single one of them had more decency and integrity than this privileged plutocrat

Truth.

They found Luigi Mangione in a matter of days, but here we are almost 4 years out from January 6th and still no pipebomber. I wonder why that is?

We shouldn’t accept that a CEO killer must get a national manhunt when cops don’t solve most murders at all. A migrant teenager was just murdered in NYC, cops just killed a guy here — the lives of these other people are worth just as much as that CEO.

Imagine caring more about "taxes" than keeping people in your community alive. All healthcare should be free and all medication / treatment accessible for all. Thinking otherwise is both homicidal and suicidal. If your country can afford to have billionaires, it can afford to provide for everyone.
