This is for @gtconway.bsky.social Five things I did last week. 1. Took too much ketamine 2. Danced onstage with a chainsaw 3. Ignored my new baby momma 4. Laughed at my own jokes. 5. Neglected all of my children except for the one I use as a human shield.

Absolutely nothing.

Let’s get something clear. The GOP has the power to keep the government from shutting down in March. They control both chambers of Congress and the White House. If they can’t reach a budget deal within their own ranks, that completely on them. Dems: Don’t lift a finger to help them. Not one.

Keep at it

“Operation Whirlwind” What’s Happening Now? In 2025, Operation Whirlwind was launched under Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin to investigate alleged threats against employees of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

We can help shift the tide! Wisconsin must have fair electoral maps going forward. Answer Musk’s money with a blizzard of small donations. Give Musk the finger and support Judge Susan Crawford for the open WI Supreme Court seat. Our democracy depends on it. secure.actblue.com/donate/hrccr...

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

🫡🇺🇸 "Americans do not swear an oath to a king, a tyrant or a dictator. We swear an oath to the Constitution and the idea of ​​America, for which we are willing to die," — Mark Milley ❗️He said that every US military member gives his life to protect the Constitution, not to individuals.

Brown had to go - he was serving his country while black.

Beware Trump especially on Friday evenings, notorious slow news time to undertake mischief with minimal scrutiny www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Laguna Beach is an art colony. We support the arts. Chip Bok is the brilliant award-winning political cartoonist that created this artwork.

Everyone sees it. No one does anything about it.

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Another dataset I like is from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program, which has maps of the US that show we fixed the acid rain problem by implementing stricter emission controls on power plants. nadp.slh.wisc.edu/maps-data/nt...

“Many workers say they live in a constant state of fear, unable to trust their colleagues, unable to speak freely, reflexively engaging in self-censorship even on matters they view as crucial to national security.” Fed gov used to be a great place to work, www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

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.

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

Time to stop pretending what's happening isn't real.

@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."

Translation from Legalese: Your Honor, we have no idea WTF Elon is doing. Respectfully, The United States Department of Justice

Captures it perfectly.

This negotiation between the US and Russia, and cutting out Ukraine, is just like when Trump cut out Afghanistan and negotiated with Taliban. We see how that “good deal” turned out. Afghanistan was on Trump Every Trump deal fails

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

Hilarious NYT headline: REPUBLICANS LOVE TRUMP’S SPENDING CUTS. JUST NOT IN THEIR STATES.

Having just participated in the taping of tomorrow’s show, I think they are definitely going to have to shut the network down if the episode airs. 😵‍💫🤣

And, for those of us looking ahead, he corked for both Roberts and Brett Kavanaugh. I’m sure they know who is honest and virtuous, and who is mendacious and brutish.

Trump officials have terminated more than 300 staffers at the National Nuclear Security Administration without realizing that they oversee America’s nuclear weapons. They are now trying to rescind the terminations.
