When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

BREAKING: A cadre of largely unidentified actors in the so-called Department of Government Efficiency are controlling major government functions with no real oversight or transparency. We're suing to force them to comply with the law and turn over records by March 10.

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.

Well this isn’t ominous

The National Park Service fired many of its park rangers as part of a reduction in the federal work force. Some rangers decided it was worth the risk to speak out online about the cuts and share their love of the Park Service. “It’s scary, but it was the right thing to do.”

Guys it's been one hell of a day here at the good ole IRS. Need some time to process and to reach out to friends and family affected by the terminations this week. We don't know how many we lost or when this will end. Take care of yourselves, and be kind to the people hurting. We are all Americans.

Stephen King has returned to Twitter. 10/10. No notes. 🔥

❗️“Thank you all for your help and for the sense of unity – unity that is as important now as it is in 2022,” Zelenskyy said. “I am proud of our people, proud of everyone who fights, who helps and believes – believes that evil should not win in wars.”

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

Floating the idea of them stupid ass checks from DOGE is literally a distraction while they keep ruining the country. "Here's 5000 bucks, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" (wizard of oz reference)

DOGE puts a $1 limit on government credit cards. Every single federal employee should order one $.96 Pentel ballpoint pen www.wired.com/story/doge-g...

The Book of Elon.

This sounds good to me!! Does it to you ?

This shit doesn’t happen in France and I’ll tell you why: the rich went too far once and they cut all their heads off and now, when those in power fuck workers over, the French stop working. Don’t forget your real power Americans. They don’t let you have unions for a reason.

Oh good, now we’re entering the “impose government censorship” part of the fascist takeover, so glad the majority of Democrats think this is just loud man make egg price go up

A reminder: 1. Elon Musk's wealth is mostly in Tesla stock 2. Tesla is successful because at a key moment in 2009 the federal government gave it a $465 million loan so it could make sedans 3. Musk is now firing thousands of government workers and slashing every service ordinary people depend on

…the nukes

I posted a copy of the 3 minute version of my speech from yesterday (with citations) if anyone is interested. Feel free to steal from it if you want! (also, this is literally less than half of the Nazi shit they're currently pulling)

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.

Tom Homan’s obsession with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a political miscalculation. This could be the opening Democrats need to re-engage Latinos who have been waiting for someone to stand up.
