One way Trump plans to indefinitely hold onto power is by crushing competition. So, how do we preserve electoral competition? It takes more than just holding an election. Read and subscribe to the Entrenchment Agenda for the details: www.ifyoucankeepit.org/s/the-entren...

The FAA is close to canceling a $2.4 billion contract with Verizon to overhaul the communications system that serves as the backbone of the nation’s air traffic control and is awarding the work to Musk’s Starlink. Follow the money and see where it goes.

A federal district judge ruled that C.I.A. Director John Ratcliffe has the authority to fire intelligence officers who worked on diversity initiatives.

Impeach.

Trump's Social Security Administration commissioner just called for a 50% staff reduction. This would gut SSA field offices and make it harder for millions of seniors to access benefits.  Make no mistake: this is an attack on Social Security itself.

Name every victory when they come

State AG’s stepping up

NEWS: The FDA abruptly canceled its upcoming advisory committee meeting to select the strains for next year's flu shot. by @berkeleyjr.bsky.social

Confirmed to be an unvaxxed child. We have to talk about the foreign influence campaigns around vaccines. Hostile intelligence agencies — and their useful idiots in the US — are convincing the “do your own research” crowd to kill their children to own the libs.

A rare moment of good in this week's news. When gov works with the people instead of against them, great things can be done. Thank you all for your support. Together is how we get through this. 🫶

Look at this leader. Lift her up.

NEW: In a victory, the 9th Circuit upholds a ruling that blocked provisions of two Arizona laws seeking documentary proof of citizenship to vote in presidential elections. The court called the challenged provisions “unlawful measures of voter suppression.”

Nurses won’t be silent on these devastating Medicaid cuts "We're going to call out policies that are going to hurt our patients, just like we would speak up for them at the bedside," Thank you @publicnewsservice.bsky.social for the opportunity to discuss. www.publicnewsservice.org/2025-02-24/h...

A federal judge in Maryland issued a temporary restraining order on Monday, blocking members of Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency team and anyone “working on the DOGE agenda at the Department of Education” from accessing sensitive data until March 10.

We & colleagues & clients just sued over Musk & OPM’s absurd “5 accomplishments last week” demand This is about intimidation, not performance We’re part of a big coalition litigating to stop this baseless & unlawful assault on public service 👇

BREAKING: Judge in our Treasury case vs. DOGE just raised profound "concerns about constitutionality of DOGE"! She follows Judge Chutkan who also raised questions last week We @sddaction.bsky.social will be in Md. Fed. Ct. Friday in our appointments clause case to prove DOGE is unconstitutional

Kamala Harris delivers an inspiring and uplifting message as she accepts the prestigious Chairman's Award at the NAACP Image Awards. Her powerful words highlight her ongoing commitment to equality, justice, and progress. 🥰💙

Arizona GOP leaders sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi asking her to reconsider the Justice Department's lawsuit challenging the state's restrictive proof of citizenship for voting law.

The @principlesfirst.bsky.social conference was just evacuated due to a bomb threat. This is after Enrique Tarrio and members of the Proud Boys showed up and tried to disrupt the conference yesterday.

The real “Gulf of America” is between the people who believe every word Musk & Trump are saying and the people who know how incredibly full of shit they are.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

You hate to see it 😂 www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

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.)

Why is this so hard for news orgs? www.status.news/p/cbs-evenin...

NEW: Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

There’s a measles outbreak in Texas and HHS Secretary RFK Jr. is completely silent. Not a peep. This is so, so bad.

Your billionaire overlord doesn't want you getting on Signal. Wonder why that could be 🤔The petty tech tyrant running X will let you have free speech as long as you say the right thing to the right people on the right platform. #resist www.disruptionist.com/p/elon-musks...

BREAKING: Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs (D) vetoes a Republican bill that would have curbed absentee voting by limiting when ballots could be returned and essentially ended the Active Early Voter List. https://azmirror.com/2025/02/18/hobbs-vetoes-republican-plan-to-end-election-day-ballot-drop-offs/

WASH POST: “Musk’s DOGE is seeking access to a heavily-guarded IRS system that includes detailed financial info about every taxpayer, business and nonprofit in 🇺🇸 — sparking alarm within the tax agency.” Alarmed yet? www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

CISA – a federal agency that helps secure elections from foreign threats and disinformation – has placed its employees on administrative leave. The move puts the security and integrity of elections in the U.S. at risk.

Blast this out to every PTA in America

Cuts to low income health care, tax cuts for multinational corporations Cuts to food assistance, tax cuts for estates over $14 MILLION Cuts to Ed grants & school lunches, tax breaks for businesses buying equipment The Trump agenda is a transfer of wealth from bottom to top

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!
