BREAKING: Dems torch Trump after his jaw-dropping, disgraceful shouting match with Zelensky in an Oval Office meeting that will go down in the history books. This is an all-time low for the United States of America... And I'm embarrassed to be an American! www.cnn.com/2025/02/28/p...

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Besides the bad faith and epic corruption evidenced by the letter to @robertgarcia.bsky.social from this Trump waterboy, it is “whom you call a dick,” not “who you call a dick.” Grammar counts, you unctuous toady of the wannabe mob boss WHOM you serve.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts. NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms. This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social: "On Jan 6 2021, Republicans essentially decided that they'd given up on democracy... Most Republicans are very consciously looking the other way as Trump & Musk seize control of the government because they absolutely see it as a mechanism by which they can crush dissent."

This is Bezos’ propaganda that landed in my email this morning. What a charming little man to advertise how his company is helping SoCal fire victims, as he’s screwing the rest of the country.

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...

“The controller who was handling helicopters in the airport’s vicinity Wednesday night was also instructing planes that were landing and departing from its runways. Those jobs typically are assigned to two controllers, rather than one.”

Trump knows it was his freezing of funding for flight traffic controllers that killed 67 people — not Obama & Biden. He’s a fetid piece of worthless garbage that should’ve been thrown away decades ago.
