So they told us what they were going to do to ALL of us. Here is a tracker on their progress in destroying our country: www.project2025.observer

This is the most cowardly administration in history.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Amanda Zurawski has been named one of TIME magazine’s Women of the Year. Amanda’s Story: Citing the state’s abortion laws, Texas doctors denied Amanda Zurawski emergency medical care when her water broke at only 18 weeks of pregnancy. It was September of 2021, and Amanda was miscarrying. Her…

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

🚨🚨🚨 PSA- Gov. Braun has banned the distribution of the Imagination Station books in Indiana. For those who do not know, Imagination Station is a program started by Dolly Parton which provides a free book each month to children from 0-5. 1/2

trump wants to be able to tell the USPS not to deliver ballots to blue states www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Last night MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell said Trump was the first U.S. president to “switch sides during a war.” That aptly describes Trump’s betrayal but it can’t begin to convey the depravity of what Trump did in throwing our ally overboard and lying about every facet of Putin’s criminal aggression.

Typical Trump lie: He said Zelensky’s approval rating was 4% when in fact it hovers around 57%, far higher than Trump’s has ever reached. Another: He called Ukraine’s democratically elected leader a “dictator.” Yet another: He blamed Ukraine for Russia’s military invasion of its sovereign territory

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is definitely one of the good ones. Today he HAMMERED Trump with a detailed list of all the prices that are going up because of Trump's trade wars. Make sure everyone sees this.

Just watched the presser from the Oval, Felon47 and Herr Plugs lied the whole damn time. Every word they said was a lie, these two thugs are trying to break our Democratic norms. Stay loud my friends and always Resist! We are the #Opposition Keep your eyes on the prize and don’t get distracted.

NYT is trying to get Vol 2 of Jack Smith's report (MAL/Classified Docs) thru FOIA in this lawsuit. DOJ denied the request on 2/5 & NYT is taking an admin appeal of that decision. If (when) they lose, they will come back to the court to try and get the report. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

That’s nothing. I found 13 contracts awarded to SpaceX since December totaling $77M. 1/

There is going to come a time in the very near future where the only way to resolve this is for every non-MAGA media company to band together and simply refuse to walk into the presser or attend the event. Because he wants the coverage more than anything else. Divided you fall.

The move puts the security and integrity of elections in the U.S. — especially at the state level, where local election officials rely on CISA resources to securely run elections — at risk. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.

A quick search of Cotton’s accounts show that the first time he posted a single word critical of USAID was 5 days ago, despite serving in the Senate for 10 years and the House before that.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’ Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

True.

The shock and awe Musk, Vought, Bannon and Trump — are bringing will backfire if we’re smart about it. Make clear that DOGE is the Dept of Govt Extermination, not Efficiency. Let people see that their taxes are no longer paying for vital public services but to fatten the richest people on earth.

Article 1 Section 8 CONGRESS shall have the power... To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water; To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations NOT THE PRESIDENT. NOT DOGE.

ok, so basically I'm trying to make this post go viral.

Thou shalt impeach the motherfucker.

Bravo, Rep. Marc Pocan !

🇺🇸 Lively crowd in Madison, Wisconsin, right now! Stop the coup! #resist

Every day is Christmas for Putin now.

Damning.

Thanks to George Conway for posting Caroline Kennedy's letter so everyone is informed about RFK Jr. Please repost far and wide.

Democrats should not vote on a single Trump cabinet nominee until this federal assistance freeze is rescinded. Do not let up.
