New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Merrick Garland was so concerned to appear bipartisan, to follow the law without fear or favor, he allowed someone who tried to overthrow our democracy inciting a LITERAL insurrection…not only to run again for POTUS but who has now capitulated America into a full blown authoritarian takeover.

They were never going to lower prices. They never cared about egg prices. It's the same lie as CRT. They want us chasing their bullshit while the real mission is to disassemble the government so the rich can get richer. They are on a mission to destroy it all. It's beyond a coup.

Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?

We shouldn’t have to fear the spread of false information. We should be afraid because a large number of voting adults are unable to distinguish for themselves what is true and what is false.

Jamie Raskin: "Given that I was marching at age 3, you know I’m not letting any coup-plotting, election-denying, insurrection-supplying autocrat, kleptocracy, plutocrat or theocrat, or any techno-feudalist Silicon Valley broligarchs aspiring dictator, turn me around now.” Amen!!

WSJ shined a light on MAGA strong hold Huntington Beach, CA So @chriswarcraft.bsky.social a former punter for the Minnesota Vikings showed up at HB City Council mtg to call out Trump & MAGA Republicans as a nazi movement and then gets arrested for an act of civil disobedience! LFG! Be Like Chris

Co-presidents Trump & Musk are gaming us—pretending to cut “government waste” while plotting to rob us blind and push a permanent billionaire tax cut that will add trillions to the debt they care about only during elections. The thing is—the con is so g damn obvious! (Video 🧵)

NY Gov. Kathy Hochul’s response: “We are a nation of laws, not ruled by a king. The MTA has initiated legal proceedings in the Southern District of New York to preserve this critical program. We’ll see you in court.”

Duckworth: "He essentially just surrendered to Putin."

I have no independent confirmation of this. But this is seriously scary. This piece claims D.O.G.E. exposed sensitive government servers to the internet. @markwarner.bsky.social @jahimes.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/cyberint...

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

I've read most of the analyses of the DOGE 2025 "receipts" site. This, from NPR, is the best I've read so far. Some of what they claim to have cut haven't been cut, other "cuts" will incur costs down the road. NPR says DOGE has made $2B of cuts, not $55B. www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

He will burn down whatever he can, however he can Our systems of governance, rule of law, global alliances, even the Constitution. Consumed by vengeance and greed, he is the greatest threat to our Republic since its founding. We must meet this moment with the force of a thousand suns. Or perish.

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

"Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage." -- @govpritzker.illinois.gov

Ruhle: The left-leaning podcast MeidasTouch has just done the unthinkable—dethroned Joe Rogan to become the country’s most popular podcast…

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Ukraine can’t hold Elections while martial law is in effect so President Zelensky is legitimate. Senator Sheldon is right. Ukraine is a part of the felon’s pressure campaign to extort half a trillion in Ukrainian mineral rights to dole out to his cronies.

This is a great watch:

Former Vice President Mike Pence denounced Donald Trump over his biggest, most flagrant lie of late — the infuriating claim that Ukraine started the war with Russia. Pence reappeared to slam Trump’s Putin-inspired lie. Posting the indisputable truth on X, Pence emphasized his…

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.

NEW: Nearly 1,000 career federal prosecutors have penned a letter to salute the bravery of those who stood up to the recent actions of Trump DoJ leadership. One of the signatures belongs to Jack Smith. www.thejusticeconnection.org/wp-content/u...

@raskin.house.gov: "The most glaring conflict of interest of all is that Elon is a government contractor himself, who collects billions of dollars from the US government... And like all authoritarian and fascist movements around the world in history, corruption is at the heart of it."

Planes didn't crash when this guy ran things.

PAY ATTENTION: While they bombard us with constant news cycles of f*ckery, they are continually trying to strip away our rights and humanity. Bill H.R. 722 would lead to a Federal Abortion Ban with no exceptions! #ProudBlue #DemCast

Between this and cutting Federal Housing Administration staffing in half, Trump Populism™ is looking more and more like a bait-and-switch. How long, if ever, will it take his supporters to catch on?

NEW VIDEO: A new blockbuster lawsuit by Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro may be part of the key to unlock trillions of dollars of funds being unlawfully held by the Trump administration. Paige and I explain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa6t...

"Trump (with his inability to nominate anyone competent) owns this. Elon (with his insistence on gutting the government of talent) owns this. And all of those spineless Republicans Senators (who greenlit Sean Duffy for fear of asserting their autonomy as a co-equal branch of government) own this."

Oops @meidastouch.com

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.
