Donald Trump’s firing of military leaders — four-star General Brown and four-star Admiral Franchetti — along with top legal officers is a betrayal of legions of first rate service members who dedicate their lives to our nation’s defense. This is a growing national security risk.

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

This is catching fire today... www.msn.com/en-us/news/p...

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)

OREGON: “The house & senate are totally abdicating their responsibilities.” @RepBentz (R) is the latest Republican to get confronted by constituents at a town hall. (Tennessee folks— town halls are these things where senators/reps show up and you can talk to them in person)

If you support this, you’re an awful human being

I am very politically active and write/call my congressman often. I have lived in his district for almost 2 decades. I have never seen him in person and it’s not for a lack of trying. No town halls. No visiting his district. I’ve never seen hide nor hair of Sam Graves.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Your perennial reminder that journalists really shouldn't be covering CPAC. www.niemanlab.org/2021/12/cpac...

So an open threat against a sovereign state. Where are all my “state’s rights” people?

Governor Mills doesn’t suffer fools lightly, and it appears she has even less tolerance for bullies. (And as a former attorney general, she knows what she’s talking about.)

BREAKING: USCP is arresting Enrique Tarrio for swiping his hand at a counterprotester who got in his face.

I have identified at least two dozen pardoned Capitol Rioters that are currently attending CPAC in Washington, D.C. —including members of far right extremists groups such as the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers. Updates on Pardon Tracker's interactive visualization: embed.kumu.io/39b5108ec4a0...

GOP Rep. Rich McCormick “was peppered with boos and catcalls throughout a town hall meeting in Roswell late Thursday, as hundreds of critics jeered the Republican for backing President Donald Trump’s agenda during his first month in office.” www.ajc.com/politics/mcc...

(Guardian) - French far-right leader Jordan Bardella has cancelled his speech at the US Conservative Political Action Conference conference after former Trump aide Steve Bannon appeared to make a Nazi salute at the end of his speech last night .. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Nonpartisan watchdog American Oversight has filed a disciplinary complaint asking New York authorities to investigate potential professional misconduct by acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove, the Trump DOJ official who oversaw the dismissal of criminal charges against New York Mayor Eric Adams.

Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia has published a letter sent to him by Trump’s Department of Justice threatening to potentially prosecute him for criticizing Elon Musk.

In Ojibwe, my name means ‘speaks in a loud and clear voice woman.’ Today, I’m officially launching my campaign for the U.S. Senate to go to D.C. and speak in a loud and clear voice for ALL of Minnesota.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

CALIFORNIA — ex NFL punter Chris Kluwe arrested for civil disobedience protesting at the city council in Huntington Beach, where the council planned a “MAGA” display on a plaque at the library. Context: www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootb...

Why do the Republicans love cancel culture? bsky.app/profile/dori...

“Absolutely heartbroken… I am a father, loving husband, and dedicated civil servant.” While Kevin O’Leary says “cut cut cut cut more” — as if 🇺🇸 is a business (it isn’t) — these are the people whose lives are being ruined by Musk/Trump to pave the runway for greedy tax cuts.

I met with rural Democrats in Page County, Iowa tonight. Everyone is a little overwhelmed with the shock and awe campaign, but they are calling, writing, and showing up. Red state folks are used to this sort of blitz…we know the drill. Stand up. Talk back.

Marco Rubio's collaboration with Russia's Sergei Lavrov and Putin is one of the most disgusting acts of betrayal to democracy and our nation. Rubio has secured his place in history of infamy.

NEW 👀: As predicted, Judge Ho has ordered a hearing for 2 p.m. this Wednesday to explore why the DOJ has moved to dismiss the charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/n...

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

The Trump official currently dismantling USAID was caught in a secret meeting with a group of pro-Russian separatists in the Balkans. Those he met with are under American sanctions for trying to restart the Bosnian war in the name of Christian nationalism. 1/

If you swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, this is your chance to actually do it.

There's a Crisis of Masculinity in this country and the only way to solve it is to let me act like a cross between a baby and a movie villain

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”

An interaction between Elon Musk and his 3rd baby mama occurred yesterday during the Ashley St. Clair secret baby daddy fallout.

He’s right again.

It's cold outside but the sun is out and it's a great day to DESTROY THE PATRIARCHY

I saw a video of known alcoholic Pete Hegseth drinking multiple scotches in the middle of a televised presser and started laughing so hard I began coughing as I believe we're less than 2 weeks removed from him promising never to drink a single time as Secretary of Defense and nothing matters anymore

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

concentration camps for mentally ill people. just horrific.

Reminder: measles can kill, especially young children. The outbreak in Samoa, that RFK Jr. helped take hold with vaccine disinformation, killed over 80, mostly young kids. www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2025/01/30/h...

Why does a 38-year old U.S. Attorney in SDNY, who is also a die hard conservative, have more guts and integrity than the entirety of the GOP Senate Conference combined?! Shame on the shameless sycophants and enablers there, who can’t find the spine to stand up to common MAGA bullies.

One enduring problem with the American electorate is how millions of people convinced themselves the government plays no role in their economic situation except to tax and to hinder them while giving money to undeserving people.
