Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

One of the Best overviews of the Systemic dismantling of the #USPS I have seen. Do give it a watch! youtu.be/Oo7WaaF2-po?...

“Who's Showing Up to Vote in the Senate? Not John Fetterman” ⁦‪Reporting by Pablo Manriquez‬⁩ for Zeteo: zeteo.com/p/whos-showi...

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

Say what you want about Kendrick but the fact that people are figuring out what “40 acres and a mule” in 2025 is why any education to black history is important, no matter no big nor small.

Welcome to the RFK Jr Era of Public Health.

Trump blames Ukraine for starting the war the way a rapist blames his victim for looking too sexy.

For 16 years, U.S. aviation had a perfect record—ZERO major commercial plane crashes. Then Trump returned and in just 29 days the USA has had seven crashes, 15 aviation disasters, and 85 dead, on pace for this over 1,000 dead this year via plane crash.

white nationalist men are too emotional to be in charge

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Oxfam: Israel has destroyed 1,025 miles of water & sanitation networks, leaving less than 7% of pre-war water levels available in Rafah & North Gaza. Israel has partially or entirely destroyed more than 80% of water/sanitation infrastructure in Gaza, including all 6 main wastewater treatment plants

Prius at 0:16 doing the ope let me sneak by you real quick

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

what the fuck do these people know about ATC? what the fuck are they going to do to it? this really truly was not broken - we needed MORE air traffic controllers but the DC crash was the biggest such crash since 2001 instead they're firing all the probationary employees and whatever this is

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

"Trump Wants a Monarchy, Not a Presidency. He Must Be Stopped" Writing for Zeteo, constitutional law professor @kimwehle.bsky.social says we are in danger of losing our democracy over the president's false claim to unlimited executive power under Article II. Read/share: zeteo.com/p/trump-mona...

An important point to keep in mind.

New guidance has been shared with coalition members. If you’re outside the coalition, please download anything you might need. Terminations will escalate this coming week.

Well said.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

The 50501 Movement has planned protests at all 50 state capitols and the U.S. Capitol on Presidents’ Day at noon. While mainstream media isn’t covering it, many YouTubers have stepped up to provide coverage.

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

Discworld QOTD, from Going Postal

Trump and Musk's (DOGE) funding cuts are crippling global efforts to combat child rape networks & human trafficking. Critical programs supported by USAID & the State Department are being shut down—leaving vulnerable children without protection from organized crime. #OpDeathEaters

It’s been called the Gulf of Mexico for 425 years. Thanks Britannica!

Worth reading this again, given Tulsi Gabbard getting confirmed and sworn in today as Director of National Intelligence:

Stealing the Oval Office spotlight while your 4 year old tells the President to shut up is nasty work 🤣🤣🤣

For those of you desperately in need of distraction from today's headlines, here's a photo of a bunny & a chick who are friends.

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

Inflation remained stubbornly high in January, as grocery, gasoline and shelter costs all rose. Egg prices saw their biggest price hike in almost a decade.

It was never about “free speech.”

Tryna strike a chord and it's probably A minorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

A brave US protestor crashed the Superbowl, put on by US oligarchs, during its halftime show by waving a Palestine and Sudan flag to raise awareness about human rights & the humanitarian catastrophe in both countries. Both tragedies made worse by Trump and Musk's cuts to USAID. #3E #USprotests

The first story, titled "Clockwork Girl," is debuting on June 27!

Here’s some advice for those outside our coalition, as the administration is actively leading a witch hunt for resistance members. If you’re a government employee, avoid using government devices to coordinate. Do not use standard messaging apps on Android or Apple devices.

Dems spent years avoiding having any kind of convo about adding seats to the Supreme Court because 'what kind of precedent would that set for Republicans?' Meanwhile, the GOP take office & within weeks are openly talking about ignoring court verdicts and impeaching judges. Sigh.

Do I have this right? Elon Musk - the guy in charge of preventing wasteful spending - dropped $40M on a Super Bowl ad? We could permanently house 800 homeless veterans for $40M. Or provide five million meals to the hungry. Or replace lead pipes in 8,500 homes.

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen. Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !” globalnews.ca/news/9793403...

"The Day the Earth Blew Up" comes out in a little over a month, and I wanna ask one favor of everyone who follows me who sees it: if you like it, please say so. Tell people you liked it. Share that you liked it. Let WB know that you liked it. Remind them these characters are still relevant---

SCOOP: Kash Patel took $25,000 from a production company with ties to Russia propaganda activity to appear in an anti-FBI docuseries. He did not respond to questions about this. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts. NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms. This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.

Musk’s team—Christopher Young, Nikhil Rajpal, and Gavin Kliger—is currently at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). This move comes just months after Musk posted “Delete CFPB” on his X social media platform.

Just gonna post this everyday until it happens.

It is notable that Big Law is completely absent from the legal fights to protect democracy. In 2017, they bragged about their pro bono work for the resistance. Now, they are silent -presumably cowering in fear of Trump and Musk. Support the non-profit law orgs and small firms doing this hard work.

Two years ago I warned everyone not to embrace Brad Raffensperger as some sort of hero. Now he is sucking up to MAGA. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/brad...
