Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

Starting to think the right’s mEmE KiNg WhO LeGaLiZeD CoMedY is actually just a whiny little bitch with a fragile ego.

When Rupert Murdoch’s rags turn on you …

📺 Two years ago, President @JoeBiden made history as the first U.S. president since Lincoln to visit an active war zone. The next day, he rallied NATO and the world behind Ukraine. Now? Trump is cozying up to Putin, undermining our allies, and betraying Ukraine. A total disgrace.

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

A new bat coronavirus that has the capacity to spread to humans, similar to the one that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, has been discovered by a Chinese researcher. Good thing we are completely prepared this time. www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

Causing "global catastophe" will be judged one day as crimes against humanity. A reckoning will come. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Sadly shared by Sam the rural health advoCATe, who notes that the loss of well-paying jobs disproportionately hurts rural places, which generally offer lower-paid employment. He notes how widespread Federal employment is. #PowerOfRuralCats dailyyonder.com/federal-layo...

The Nazi budget mandates that Congress partially offset the cost of these tax cuts by cutting $2 trillion of mandatory federal spending, a budget category that includes life-saving programs like Medicaid, Medicare, and SNAP (i.e. food benefits). Ready to fight back?

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: All six of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s children have been vaccinated. Not only is RFK Jr. a longtime anti-vaxxer, he has made a highly profitable career of endangering the lives of millions in his dangerous crusade against vaccinations. The ascendancy of this lying profiteer…

Did you know that 72 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for healthcare? The Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans in Congress want to take it away to give tax breaks to billionaires. Don't let them take away our healthcare. Let them know you didn’t vote for this shit.

Here's an idea, Dems: Explain to America, including maga, that the end goal of Edolf's systems access & government firings is to replace every single one of those jobs with robots he makes. That might not sit well? @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @wyden.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social

On point…

Former KGB spy breaks cover to reveal Donald Trump was recruited as a Russian spy 38 years ago. Byline Times was subjected to a DDOS attack to prevent this story being published. bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...

A year ago this month, Trump said he would encourage Russia to attack NATO allies and "do whatever the hell they want" unless allies paid up. We thought it was so important, we ran it on the front page of the @mississippifreepress.org at a time when the New York Times and others didn't.

REMEMBER: Next Friday, February 28. NOT 1 PENNY SPENT. We can do this. I'm IN, are you? 👋💙

JUST IN: A judge has enjoined President Trump's effort to block federal funds from going toward grant recipients who engage in DEI practices. The judge says the orgs are likely to succeed on claims that this is viewpoint discrimination, among other issues storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump is looking bad because Biden deported more people in the same period of time he has. He thinks a new director is the answer. It’s not. He’s finding out about logistics. That, and he’s fucking stupid. apple.news/APNPTPv3LTou...

The founder of Airbnb is now part of DOGE. NO more Airbnb for me. youtube.com/post/UgkxCS9...

Wow. DOGE is far more expensive than the USDS that it pretends to be. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

History tells us of so many who fail to act, hesitate, or freeze and then pay the price. They sit back in shock or disbelief until it’s too late. They don’t rise to the moment. I have news for you. You are there right now. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Trickle up economics.

CARTOON OF THE DAY

This is the most cowardly administration in history.

🚨 BREAKING: Joint Chiefs Chairman CQ Brown is on the list of officers submitted to Congress—signaling that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth could fire him, officials say. Are you surprised that Hegseth might target the highest-ranking Black officer in the military? I’m not.

Inflation is on the rise, unemployment is skyrocketing, trumps numbers are tanking and so are big box businesses like Target & Walmart Just keep avoiding these fascist supporting shit stores

"If he truly wants peace in Ukraine, he should follow the first rule for negotiators: In public, just shut up." David Ignatius on a dark day for the US and "a Trump outrage that stands apart." 🎁 wapo.st/3CXKukK

Dear business owners that voted for Trump, You could have had $50K in capital and a robust SBA. Instead, DOGE is cancelling all your government contracts and putting you out of business so he can have the contracts for himself.

Trump touts the “fairness” of his reciprocal tariff plan, but in reality the tax will hit low-income households the hardest and cost the average American household around $2,000.

Key point from @pkrugman.bsky.social today: Musk/Trump targeted "probationary employees" to appear to be saving money without hitting core government functions. Indeed, the Alzheimer's researchers now getting laid off, as I reported below, are also probationary employees. Shows what BS this is.

Gang, at this point I’m too disillusioned to expect all of you to mask always (even though you should), but for the love of GOD, please at least mask at airports and on planes when you travel to events!!!

Another lie of intergalactic proportions🧑‍🚀
