This didn't take long.

This stupid trade war with Canada will get ugly . Our job is to make the Canadians not hate us but hate the regime these dopes elected .

As Maya Angelou has so eloquently stated: "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time. This is who they are. Believe them.

A new website created by about a dozen federal employees, called “We the Builders,” aims to be a secure outlet for government workers to share stories about how their workplaces are being impacted by DOGE, and a place to explain the real-world impact of its access to government tech systems.

I'm just saying...

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Anyone else see that Cybertruck stuck in the snow while the Honda Fit drives right past it? Pretty much sums up America vs rest of the world.

"Six weeks ago, we had the strongest economy, employment, and stock market in history. ..All gone in 30 days."

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

If Hooters had started a home delivery during the pandemic and called it, "Knockers," they wouldn't be bankrupt.

He’s Thiel Fellow, explains so much. ‘The fellowship is intended for students aged 22 or younger and offers them a total of $100,000 over two years, as well as guidance and other resources, to drop out of school and pursue other work’

I always thought Wallace Shawn had the ideal career: you get to be this well-regarded highbrow playwright and art house movie maker AND you also get to be a part of millions of people‘s childhoods by being in Clueless, the Princess Bride, and Toy Story. What a life.

The Pentagon is now pausing their mass firing of civilian employees in order to evaluate potential impacts on military readiness. I’m just spitballing here, but maybe a readiness assessment should have been the first step. 🤦‍♂️

At my age I don't get too emotional about many things. But This!!!! Tears of Joy 🇨🇦

Dear every #altgov account: thank you. This citizen is grateful for you. You are the glimmer of hope.

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Never forget.

A rogue DOJ… Pardons for Jan6 treasonous acts were inexcusable. Broaden the scope to include drugs, guns…and child porn manufacturing/possession of child porn? Abuse of judicial power. www.npr.org/2025/02/20/n... Criminals supported by bigger criminals. This is our country. #SheShed

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

For the love of Dog, PLEASE stop posting photos of Bannon and acting like he has any smudge of good in him...

Lots of people think it's pointless to call out GOPers on capitulation to Trump. Here's why it's not. You need to make this claimed helplessness visible. You need to make it clear Jerry Moran has PLENTY of tools to rein in Musk, but has chosen not to use them. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

How this year’s SOTU should look.

This is the most cowardly administration in history.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

The entire democratic world wishes Zelenskyy was their leader, so I would say he is doing an admirable job. Carry on and Thank you for the example.

I wanted to come up with an analogy to describe Trump's absurd plan for Ukraine. Something like... "Imagine if Mexico invaded America and then met with Canada to decide how much of America they should keep." I quickly realized my analogy was something most Americans would welcome right now.

This.

Zelenskyy challenging a US official to join him in a visit to an active frontline is iconic. Unlike other countries whose leadership wages war from thousands of miles away, he has visited the trench line on multiple occasions. Armed himself to fight Russian special forces sent to kill him in Kyiv.

You know this is 100% going to happen…

“We are currently fighting with the EPA and the DOJ over a nasty stunt they pulled. There’s an account of IRA money being held by Citibank as the fiscal agent for all these different programs…..they tried to set up a fake grand jury investigation.” - RI Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse

They voted for the guy who said he would lower the price of eggs. Now we have no eggs.

I did an event in IN a few weeks ago where I said that on 1/6/21 Mike Pence saved the country (for now) by being one of very very few who stood by his principles under maximum threat.

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.

I have never met anyone from the Flat Earth Society, but I have met numerous Texans who will tell you that Texas is the best place in the world.

Ok that made me laugh

It’s a conundrum. 🤷‍♂️
