Keeping it classy, MAGA!

A beautiful & powerful protest carried out be Park Rangers in Yosemite Park. I salute these Americans.

Pathetic. Make Article I great again.

Congrats to the pro-measles lobby for their big win on RFK today.

We all know where this is headed, right? 7.1F rise in global temperatures?* No problem! Let the looting of public lands and assets begin! /1 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

“ #CFPB made Wall Street give back over $21 billion to cheated consumers; this is Wall Street’s revenge via billionaire stooge Vought. www.wsj.com/finance/regu...” • Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

Health be damned. Science just took a hit which from which we can only hope will be able to recover.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who killed so many children in Samoa they ran out of child-sized coffins, has been confirmed to lead Health and Human Services. The vote was 52-48. All Dems and Mitch McConnell, whose fault this is, voted no. All other Republicans voted yes. The blood will be on their hands.

A reminder: Vladimir Putin could end the war in Ukraine right now, just by ordering his soldiers to go home. No need for treaties or negotiations.

Our allies should NOT trust us.👇

My grandfather was a veteran, a WWII Navy Chief Petty Officer. I'll never forget the patriotism I felt when I told him about my enlistment. He was so proud of me that he cried. He's been gone for 30 years. He'd be crying now for a different reason. It makes me sick.

📌I was the managing editor at Stars and Stripes and can tell you that Pete Hegseth is the first SecDef I am aware of to be openly booed by military families on a military base. 📌This is the most significant pushback I have seen to this administration's racist, hostile initiatives.

Shonda Rhimes resigns from Kennedy Center after Trump’s takeover of the performing arts institution

WTAF? They're not even hiding the corruption.

So it took until March 2021 to get Merrick Garland confirmed as AG during Biden's term but Pam Botox gets in within 2 weeks? How the fuck is this happening?

Even though CDC recently allowed to resume publication of its weekly morbidity & mortality report, THREE studies on bird flu that had been scheduled to run in the journal are still being suppressed. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Protect this law at all costs ! www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Stating the obvious: Selectively posting Doge’s actions on X is the complete opposite of transparency.

BREAKING - Elon Musk slated to win $400 MILLION govt contract to make "armored Tesla" -- after $38 MILLION SpaceX contract yesterday Musk's plan: -- Shut down parts of the govt investigating him -- Claim that he's stopping government spending -- Give himself all the money

Conflict of interest? The State Department’s procurement forecast lists Tesla as the recipient of the largest expected contract, with Marco Rubio’s department planning to purchase $400 million worth of “Armored Tesla” vehicles.

Thank goodness for the American Medical Association. Here is their YouTube page. Please share far and wide. Right now bird flu is spreading throughout our country and most people have no clue.

In the past weeks, the Trump administration has purged federal law enforcement agencies of prosecutors and investigators who’d been pursuing white supremacist groups that had been listed among the most dangerous threats to national security. By @hannahallam.bsky.social

Trudeau: "There's not a snowball's chance in hell that Canada will ever be the 51st state"

Jeeezus Christ, I live in the Evil Axis.

Every day, I say we’re in a Constitutional crisis. And people ask me what I mean. And I point to stuff like this. And I say that right now we only have two independent branches of government. Because Congress is no longer doing its job. If they were, they’d investigate this.👇

@lisamurkowski.bsky.social You SOLD YOUR SOUL. We will remember.

President Truman’s 1948 speech perfectly describes the Republican Party of then and now. The madness is nothing new. The Party of Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt died with them. youtu.be/dHniJA2keIA?...

The orange felon said he would end inflation on Day 1 as well as slash the prices of eggs and gas on Day 1, yet inflation, eggs and gas are all on the rise on Day 21 whilst he blames President Biden. Well done MAGA.

Democracy Forward filed a lawsuit on behalf of the city of Baltimore, Maryland and the economic justice organization Economic Action Maryland Fund on Wednesday to block President Donald Trump’s efforts to dismantle the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau — the nation’s financial watchdog agency.

Call on Congress to Oppose The Save Act: Vote no on H.R. 22/S. 128! House Republicans have introduced the extreme anti-voter SAVE Act and declared it among their top priorities this term. Tell your members of Congress to vote NO on the SAVE Act! act.redistrictingaction.org/a/natl-savea...

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

What a classless move by an individual who hasn’t a fucking clue as to what culture or performing arts are or what they represent. He’s never even been to the Center. I wonder when “The Proud Boys, The Insurrectionists’ Musical” will be scheduled to perform. 🤬🤬🤬🤬 www.forbes.com/sites/sarado...

The Russians are celebrating, and our allies are horrified. Honestly, I don’t see how our allies can trust us and share sensitive intelligence with Tulsi Gabbard as DNI.

Nailed it…

A coalition of news organizations said in a court filing that video exhibits from a Jan. 6 riot case had "disappeared" from a government platform that provided access to evidence used in court.

This is corruption on a scale unseen before in American history. www.dropsitenews.com/p/elon-musk-...

If you are looking for someone to say that all is lost and the courts can't help protect democracy, you are following the wrong guy. If you are looking for someone who fights hard and will never give up, I'm here for you.

NEW - The Trump administration has removed the acting head of the Justice Department’s National Security Division after the career prosecutor served in the position for less than a month, sources tell ABC abcnews.go.com/US/trump-adm...

If you think Tulsi Gabbard is not a direct line to Putin? You are either a fool, willfully ignorant or been in a coma for the past 10 years Russia is thrilled to see their long-term investment in #PINO & it’s purchase of the entire Republican Party #GOPTraitors

A worsening measles outbreak has taken root in Texas, sickening two dozen and hospitalizing nine on the western edge of the state, where childhood vaccination rates have dwindled in recent years.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump, visibly confused and rambling, forgot why he was in the Oval Office—to swear in Tulsi Gabbard as DNI. Instead, he tried to leave without doing it, leaving even Newsmax stunned. At almost 79 years old, the decline is undeniable. This is not normal.

Musk's censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by about 95% since he bought it. So we moved over to blue sky. Help us build another great following right here where the skies are clear and the water is fine ;-) Please do Follow Retweet & repeat
