Why is the WH calling up all this media if thereā€™s nothing on the schedule

Over 150 people in #PA11 were so fed up with their GOP Rep. Lloyd Smuckerā€™s lack of a town hall that they held one instead. Smucker won his district with 63% of the vote in November and now his constituents are holding mock town halls. Something is happening. lancasteronline.com/news/politic...

Kamala Harris speaks at the NAACP as the recipient of the Chairmanā€™s Award

Many are asking what should we do now? ā€œWe use our power, organize, mobilize, educateā€¦the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among usā€¦it will be written by you, by ā€˜we the people.ā€™ā€ -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairmanā€™s Award.

All day this.ā¬‡ļøā¬‡ļøā¬‡ļø

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Score: Mills 1, Trump 0. Sheā€™s 100% right on the law. Trumpā€™s ā€œWe ARE the lawā€ was way, way over the top. No, Mr. President, you are not. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

It might be a cult.

Answer: 1st, "failure to respond" is not resignation...there's a way to resign and it's codified in US law - failing to respond to an Email from outside the agency that employs you is nowhere in the law. Otherwise, this should suffice: "I completed work in accordance with my position description."

Musk Says Federal Workers Must Detail ā€˜What They Got Doneā€™ā€”or Risk Losing Job - classic request from a manager who does not know how to manage.

It would be a shame if we all flooded muskā€™s email ā¬‡ļø [email protected] This is the email address musk is asking federal workers to email detailing their tasks during the week šŸšØ you know what to do šŸšØ

NEW: The email went out about 30 minutes ago.

Quite a moment when top military commanders are reacting to Elon's latest manic weekend email outburst as though it's a provocation from a rival state power

Elon is fighting to pay $2K in child support for 3 kids, getting sued for custody by another mother of his child, is estranged from another daughterā€¦ And this is who the party of ā€œfamily valuesā€ is turning the keys to the country over to?

ā€œThis is someone who made his money by ripping off American taxpayers and who shouldnā€™t come anywhere near a position of authority over tax dollars,ā€ said Sen. Ron Wyden about Schulerā€™s appointment. ā€œHeā€™ll fit right in with the Trump administration.ā€ By @peterelkind.bsky.social

Way to go, Sheryl!!

WTF?? His soullessness knows no bottom. Wasting $200M of tax payers money to stroke his ego with ads?? How is this helpful?

Social Security is far too important to be raided by the Musk-rats šŸ€šŸ˜”

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Zelenskyy has shown the world what democracy means. Donald Trump is a convicted felon and a sexual pervert. These two men shouldnā€™t even be mentioned in the same sentence.

Thought your Social Security was safe?

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans ā€” including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

Wait now the right wing influencer woman filed a paternity suit against Elon??? pagesix.com/2025/02/22/p...

i must have been in a coma when this happened

The TN Ed Report on Trumpā€™s ed agenda: ā€œWhile putting the Smackdown on the Dept of Education and advancing a school privatization scheme are both devastating, Trump is not content to stop thereā€¦ Tennessee is no stranger to this march toward theocracy.ā€ open.substack.com/pub/theeduca...

This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why heā€™s doing it.
