AMERICANS ON SOCIAL SECURITY WILL DIE AS A RESULT OF THESE CUTS TO PHONE SERVICES: “A huge number of Americans do not have access to computers..or have low levels of education or English proficiency. You’re talking about people w/disabilities.” - Nancy Altman www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

In America an ugly chapter has begun. We understand that this is our time to stand for our principles -no matter the cost. We see fear-we see cowardice. And we see courage too. This moment calls for moral fortitude & clarity. We are wide awake now. Our best selves are rising to meet the moment.

Governor Walz is back on the scene and he’s not pulling any punches. ✊🏼 Good to see you Coach!!

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

JPM’s CEMBALEST: “McKinley tariffs were very popular at the time they were enacted .. but they caused an almost immediate inflation spike. “.. a few months later, the GOP lost 100 seats in the 1890 midterm elections .. the third largest in the history of the House going back to the Civil War.” 🇺🇸

Elon Musk is pushing to end phone services at Social Security, which 73 million retired and disabled Americans rely on to apply for and access their earned government benefits.

This is a false choice that is wrong. If the GOP majority needs bipartisanship to keep the government open, they should negotiate a bipartisan bill, not this garbage that gives Elon Musk total control over government spending. House Dems remain ready to pass a clean CR.

JUST A REMINDER ... ... of how close we are today ...

Folks defending Gavin Newsom for platforming extreme seditionists reminds me of the people who defended Tulsi Gabbard for supporting Assad and Putin.

Dear Bluesky, Congrats on hitting 33 million users. Love, God

EPA is terminating more than two dozen protections against air and water pollution. It would overturn limits on soot from smokestacks that have been linked to respiratory problems in humans and premature deaths as well as restrictions on emissions of mercury, a neurotoxin.

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

Yo @durbin.senate.gov, no one is picking up your Senate phone and you don’t even have a voicemail. Vote no on cloture and the spending bill or I will do whatever it takes to make sure the next Senator from Illinois has basic constituent services set up during business hours.

This is a vile display of corruption and crime as well as the most disgustingly egregious use of the White House. Fuck you to whoever chose this filth.

Idaho teacher ordered to remove inclusive signs from classroom. Being a decent human being is frowned upon now in Idaho? www.wkyc.com/article/news...

JUST NOW: Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi set the record straight on Social Security. Everyone needs to hear this.

Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two men—not in uniform—push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

The Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House! Remember the mandate they claimed they had?!?! They run the government, so if it shuts down, it’s because of THEM!

you know how in the movie "titanic" the boat spent like two hours wallowing and slowly sinking after it hit the iceberg and then in a span of five minutes it was like BOOM! straight to the bottom? it really feels like america is reaching those five minutes this week.

We are hiring a pre-doc at Stanford to work on (among other things) a project called Public Pulse, which will provide reports on public opinion in the US, and potentially fill the void of things like 538. Please share with your undergrads. iriss.stanford.edu/predoc/2025-...

No one ever said they were creative.

I miss him and his VP.

ARE MAGA Americans too naive & daft to see that Trump/Musk's 'Merger of Corporate & State" IS CORPORATE FASCISM which in no way benefits ANYONE BUT THEM? They cry murder if "Left" leaning billionaires like Soros make a donation to Democrats; YET, Musk OWNING the US Gov, all our personal data, is OK?

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money, an EARNED benefit!

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

Done with Gavin. What an utter disappointment.

News Analysis: In a span of only 50 days, President Trump has done more than any of his modern predecessors to hollow out the foundations of an international system that the U.S. painstakingly erected in the 80 years since it emerged victorious from World War II.

To be clear: every Press Secretary spins narratives for their administration. This isn’t that. It’s a flat out lie. Leavitt knows it, every journalist in that room knows it, and any American citizen with a half-functioning brain should know it too.

I’m old enough to remember when conservatives said Obama was going to ruin the White House by parking Escalades on the lawn. Now they’re perfectly fine with Trump hawking Teslas in the driveway.
