NEW: Send letters to your Senators to oppose Linda McMahon for Education Secretary—please share this post and the link. Let’s get this one moving! Thanks!

Hey congressional Republicans, still waiting for you to announce how much you’re cutting from congress’ own $6.5 billion budget….

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

Courage begets courage! All it woukd take are a few Republicans to stand up to Trump. Others woukd Follow and this authoritarian nightmare would be over! www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Two things that make America a democracy: Not having a king, and having a free press. A look inside the chilling cases from San Jose to Clarksdale that show a nation already on the brink of losing our First Amendment rights after just 1 month of Trump My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

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

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Trump wants to gut Social Security but he just spent neatly $11 million in one month of our tax dollars to play golf. Trump is the Marie Antoinette of America--and we all know how that story ended. www.huffpost.com/entry/donald...

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

Freezing Federal spending to pinpoint areas of waste, is like chucking out all the patients and shutting down the hospital, so you can balance the budget for the toilet paper and gloves..

🚨BREAKING: In 4-3 decision, Wisconsin Supreme Court reverses lower court decision and DISMISSES voter suppression lawsuit. A big victory for our clients the WI Alliance for Retired Americans and voting rights in Wisconsin. Another stinging loss for the GOP! www.democracydocket.com/cases/wiscon...

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

@nancymae302.bsky.social Hey there!

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.

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

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 continued difficulties with restoring Head Start funding is an attack on the most vulnerable families in America. @emmarjanssen.bsky.social talked to some providers on the pain of the past couple weeks, even after the courts said all funding must flow: prospect.org/health/2025-...

Holy shit.

@adamschiff.com apparently I am going to have to change my name from my married name to my maiden name in Court to be able to vote if the SAVE Act passes - can you focus on this problem. No one is married at birth... yet.

😡😡😡Attention Georgia voters. We desperately need a strong Democrat to run against Andrew Clyde in GA 9th District. Clyde is up for re-election in 2026. Please share this! #screwandrewclyde #clydedenied #Ga09

On Fox Business this morning, Chevron Chair and CEO Mike Wirth discusses all of the records that the company has broken last year. "Record" production, record distributions to shareholders, etc... Yet they're laying off 15%-20% of their workforce. Vile.

FORD CEO: ".. Let's be real honest: Long term, a 25% tariff across the Mexico and Canada borders would blow a hole in the U.S. industry that we've never seen." $F www.wardsauto.com/ford/ford-ce...

A child stood in the Oval Office and told the President of the United States to shut up and that he wasn’t the President and it’s not even a blip in the news cycle. Kids repeat what they hear.

President Elon Musk holding court with India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In what universe does MAGA think our Founding Fathers wanted to have this unelected billionaire meeting with world leaders in the White House?

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.

If you are looking for someone to say that all is lost and the courts can't help protect democracy, you are following the wrong guy. If you are looking for someone who fights hard and will never give up, I'm here for you.
