GOV. MILLS: “.. Maine may be one of the first states to undergo an investigation by his Administration, but we won’t be the last. .. “.. But you must ask yourself: who and what will he target next, and what will he do? Will it be you?” www.pressherald.com/2025/02/21/r...

Imagine being an Article III judge and you get this email on a Saturday night lol

There's literally a movie about social media company owner who gives people free internet, implants chips into people, and tries to take over the world by getting all the wealthy and politicians on board.

Ford used taxpayer's money for a trip to Washington DC and took lots of pictures to use in campaign ads, with lots of selfies with republicans as if he's the only guy negotiating trade tariffs. It's a bunch of baloney and he should remove the ads. #DougFraud #OntarioElection Vote him out.

Donald Trump replacing a black four-star general with a white three-star general as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is everything MAGA claims they hate about DEI: giving a less qualified person the job based on their race, not their resume.

PRAMS is the source of data for basically every effort to limit infant mortality and all the health dangers mothers face before and after birth. So a pretty big deal the Elon and Co decided to cancel the program.

Shocker! Our story didn’t make Brian’s media roundup. Not deferential enough to the msm I guess www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Completely nuts.

You don't fire Judge Advocates General unless you plan on issuing unlawful orders. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-f...

Another MAGA male with daddy issues and a conflicted sexual sense.

Head coach Jon Cooper for Canada who brought the team to victory in the 4 Nations Championship has a few words: #TeamCanadaWon #4Nations #CanadaWins2025 🇨🇦🇨🇦

Excellent. 👌

reminder 👇👇👇

This is strength. Not Trump.

👇👇👇 Maybe this issue will finally push US citizens into the streets? Frankly, it’s really discouraging.

That's my Prime Minister Justin Trudeau exuberantly cheering Team Canada winning the #4NationsChampionship Love it. ♥️ 🇨🇦 #JustinTrudeau #cdnpoli bsky.app/profile/dgct...

Gee, I wonder which super power was behind this?

Good work, MAGA.

They continue to tell this debunked lie 🤥 for a reason: so when they cut social security to pave the way for their tax cuts for the rich you think they had an actual reason to do it.

These ladies need to go to CPAC and teach those beta males a lesson.

www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02.... Musk’s “ultimatum” email (posted on X) to federal employees to send a weekly report card is at the level of a middle management supervisor of a call center. The Office satire couldn’t top this. Such a nerd. Embarrassing.

Here come the “town hall no-show’s”. #Wisconsin wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/02/21/r...

Elon Musk issuing government edicts on the platform he owns. I guess if you are on a vacation, in the hospital, etc, the government will just assume you've resigned if you don't respond to the email?

Why aren’t you here? Want to show the administration how you feel? Show up. Now. Lincoln Memorial. Please.

Guy who doesn’t even respond to the mothers of his children: reply to my email or you’re fired

Turns out the Dow doesn’t love it

Illegally cutting cancer research and meals on wheels to pay for PR ads for themselves.

200 million dollars of waste.

Angelo Carusone the President of Media Matters shares on my show their new report that found Fox News has featured Trump admin officials on air 124 times in first 30 days--that's 4 times a day. Fox News is the US version of pro-Kremlin media that amplifies Putin's propaganda

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

Send Dems into rural America to talk about what Trump is doing. The Republicans are too scared and won’t show their faces…in the vacuum of messaging, there is power. Tell the folks who is hurting them. Point to the GOP. Be the foil to the shit that’s happening. Be the party of the people.

Something odd just happened—an article that had been widely published on media sites has suddenly disappeared without any retraction or explanation. Many may have come across it on Reddit.

Now I see why he went out on stage with sunglasses on.

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

I agree with Bill. Time to eat the rich! The 1% have gotten too big for their britches.
