These are the same people who lost it when Omar was sworn in on the Koran.

Well that’s a headline I did not except to see. Ever.

The eventual fate of the GOP

Jeffries: "The average Social Security recipient in the US receives about $65 a day in benefits. Elon Musk in his contracts with the federal government gets about $8 million a day. If they were really interested in waste, fraud, and abuse, they would start there ... but they're going after grandma"

Too bad the schools in Parkland or Uvalde didn't sell cars. 😳👇

make america great again, healthy again, etc.

you’re telling me that yet another one of these guys is a degenerate sex criminal? i’m shocked

My yoga teacher just recognized the light and love in my soul and then validated my parking

Hey MAGA people, having any buyer’s remorse yet? 🤣🤣🤣

Have the DOGE boys gotten around to cancelling a) a single weapons contract or b) a single Elon Musk contract?

Are We Great Yet?

MEUSER: You've got Trudeau saying how the president is making a dumb move. That's bad diplomacy. SANCHEZ: I'm not sure how it's good diplomacy to say that a neighboring country should be the 51st state and that you're gonna impose economic hardship to achieve that goal.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Trudeau: "Every country is very aware that if the American government is willing to do this to their own closest ally, neighbor, and friend, everyone is vulnerable to a trade war."

SUSPEND HIM FOR TREASON. GENERALS, FIND SOME INTEGRITY!

Jeffries: "This is a critical moment in the American journey. Everything we care about is under assault... Democracy itself is under assault. Donald Trump, the administration, & House Republicans are hurting the American people. It's unacceptable, unconscionable, and we are not gonna stand for it."

I now see how fragile our democracy is.

I'm old enough to remember when Americans weren't terrified of flying airplanes due to preventable collisions. That was 2024 when Trump wasn't President and Musk wasn't running the show.

Democrats need to align here and not give a single vote. Not 1.

I heard my friend Dan here give a remarkable brief talk about this last month. Thankfully, he’s written it up at length to share.

CNN plays a clip of Russian state TV praising Trump for being "in total alignment" with Putin

Van Hollen: "European allies & others around the world who believe in freedom & democracy are wondering if this is just rhetoric or a real shift. My warning to them is I think this is reality. I think Trump is much closer ideologically to Putin & other autocrats than he is to democratic countries."

Himes: "It just looks like an episode of The Sopranos. 'Give us your minerals or we're not gonna help you fight a bloody butcher.' I mean, is this really we want the greatest country in history to be known for -- some mafia thing? ... this president is standing with the bad guy"

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

another Nazi salute at CPAC

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

Really good piece. Other Democrats in power need to look at what AOC is doing right now and follow her example. One of the worst and most frightening aspects of this moment is seeing how many Dems in leadership roles seem resigned to defeat.
