Murphy: "Let me say that again. The man that my Republican colleagues are about to vote to lead the FBI believes there is irrefutable proof that the agency he is about to lead secretly organized the violent assault on the Capitol. That is bananas. My Republican colleagues know that."

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

This video has been reposted multiple times on Reddit and continues to get taken down for whatever reason. I’m a skeptic when it comes to claiming election rigging, but this is alarming.

#Voices4Victory #ProudBlue The 6th crash since Trump has taken office. Two involving our Military. People should be up in arms You won’t get me on a plane anytime soon.

The State Department's "procurement forecast for 2025, which details purchases the agency expects to make, includes $400 million for armored Tesla vehicles."

Pop quiz: People are saying the kid says “you’re not the president you need to go away” — do y’all hear it too?

Out of 510,000 NCAA athletes, less than 10 are transgender. They are literally writing an executive order to target less than a hundred people nationwide. Republicans spent over $110 million in anti-trans ads on a made up problem.

Trump got Mexico to send the same 10,000 troops to the border that Biden already got them to commit. Trump got Canada to agree to the same measures to fight fentanyl that Biden already got them to agree to six weeks ago. Wow. What a dealmaker!

Congratulations to Trump on securing a $1.3 billion border security deal from Canada.... which was already negotiated in December 2024.

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

These are scarey times But Don't Obey in Advance We must Act Up! Act Out! Fight Back! As we learned in the AIDS epidemic: Silence = Death

Dawn is here and so is dictatorship. www.cnn.com/2025/01/31/m...

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again???

Why not release the Epstein files?

Dems would get much more traction finding and promoting people saying what they know and experience. What has more impact, This man speaking his mind or the Dems speaking “in unison “ ?

Good morning, Blue Sky Outraged by Jan 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias He didn’t tell police or the FBI] He didn’t tell family or friends The 1 person he told was a ProPublica reporter. Read his story: propub.li/4hbYDJt

Um. What did I just watch?

This is the scariest thing I've read about Trump's plans. Please don't keep it to yourself. www.reuters.com/world/us/ger... Beat the paywall: archive.ph/vHu0l

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

So all those GOP fuckers who are going around criticizing and lying about the CA wildfires voted AGAINST providing funds for wildfire prevention, including $75,000,000 for the "construction or maintenance of shaded fuel breaks in the Pacific Regions." They have NO shame. #USDemocracy

The @contrariannews.bsky.social is a brilliant idea. Now why can’t @meidastouch.com @muellershewrote.bsky.social and a few dozen other independent social media get together and make ANOTHER competing liberal news network? Too many of us are working just for subs. Let’s make a real news powerhouse.

Whenever disaster strikes, Trump and his heartless maga cult immediately use it to attack their political opponents. They make up wild conspiracy theories, and lie about recovery efforts. They politicize the victims, and try to distract from the fact they'll do nothing to help them. My Sunday Post:

Always the cleanup crew. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Why is the media like this?

North Carolina…

The fact that Republicans are attempting to straight up steal a Supreme Court seat in North Carolina by invalidating over 60,000 legally-cast votes should be getting a lot more attention than it is.

The GOP is mounting the largest, most brazen post-election disenfranchisement effort since Trump's frivolous litigation in 2020. This time, however, they may get away with it and the legacy media is largely asleep. Follow @democracydocket.com to stay up to date.

1. Hundreds of companies who pledged to stop donating to members of Congress who voted to overturn the election on 1/6/21 have broken their promise over the last 4 years But we've identified 10 promise keepers: Farmers Airbnb Expedia Nike Clorox General Mills Holland & Hart Qurate Whirlpool Lyft

Everything stated in this post is a provable fact. You are entitled to your own opinion. You are not entitled to your own facts. Looking at YOU, 2020 election-deniers.

As ever, the loss of something good and useful for Americans is framed as a loss for Democrats — in the mass media, everything becomes just a political football to be kicked back and forth instead of examined for its impact on everyday citizens regardless of political party.

2024 was another year of corporate media choosing money over truth. Their maga propaganda and bogus headlines dominated the news, helping to tilt the election for Trump. It seems clear that press coverage is about to get a lot worse, with ring-kissing and acquiescence like we’ve never seen before.

South Korean authorities have arrived at the residence of suspended recently impeached president to serve him an arrest warrant for his insane declaration of martial law last month Must be nice to have rule of law
