I am the great-grandson of a man who led his family out of the shtetl to a strange land in search of a better life. I am the grandson of the three-year-old boy on that journey. As you know, my name is Marc, but my Hebrew name is Elhanan—after the warrior in David’s army who slew a powerful giant.

Thanks to Donald Trump and Elon Musk, firefighters who just finished weeks of around-the-clock shifts fighting dangerous fires were given a note from their Commander in Chief: "Please quit." That’s a hell of a way to say thank you.

NEW: A federal judge said the Trump administration had made a "mess" of plans for USAID workers overseas after seeming to contradict itself on whether those workers were given a "choice" to remain abroad. He's demanding more details by tomorrow. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Boycotts are working. Target is getting sued by their shareholders for losing $15 billion since getting rid of DEI. Amazon admitted to their board, "2025 is off to a bad start". Today Walmart's stock fell so much, it affected the whole market. Keep boycotting.

“At least Russia has elections” Russia frequently jails and kills any opposition to Putin, who has been in power since 1999. If you like dictatorships, that’s fine. Just admit that. Don’t insult anyone’s intelligence—including your own—by claiming Russia has real elections.

Here at the Health & Human Services (HHS) rally in Washington, DC, to support our federal workers! Interesting chant from the crowd. “Hey, hey, RFK! We remember JFK!” Rep. Jamie Raskin spoke first and compared JFK’s championing of science & human rights to RFK’s anti-science stance.

I feel like the attacks on the Kennedy Center & the JFK library are intended to humiliate RFK Jr. Trump gets off on humiliating people who continue to kiss his ass. I realize the Kennedy fam has pretty much disowned RFK Jr, but it's not like he's got a library or a center named after him.

Crockett on Trump's relatively high approval: We've gotta do better at education. People don't understand. But you will understand when your Medicaid goes away. You will understand when planes continue to fall out of the sky... maybe Sleepy Joe is what we wanted, bc we could at least sleep at night.

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.

Good afternoon from New York. NYC Mayor Eric Adams is in court — and so is Trump's defense attorney turned Acting Deputy AG Emil Bove — in order to try to persuade a federal judge to dismiss the corruption case. Bove appears to be alone at the table.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

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.

Elon Musk just had the Community Note removed from the clip of his interview with Trump that went viral on X. The note pointed out that Musk lied about having to rescue astronauts because Biden supposedly abandoned them.
