"Immigrants didn't steal my job. The president did."

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Did you know in 2016 Missouri voters passed an amendment prohibiting expanding sales taxes to services?

Big Balls’s past gets more scrutiny — including the internship where he was terminated. “You’re willing to risk our entire network to a 17-year-old?” one frustrated executive asked the company’s CEO in 2022. “Are you for real right now?” @cnn.com www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

WaPo Page One: “If you’re going to just yell at me, that’s not going to be an effective town hall,” McCormick said .. “But we’re pissed!” a woman shouted. #GA07 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

DID YOU KNOW: As Trump/Musk fire anyone in the fed government that participated in diversity, equity & inclusion, he just nominated Kimberly Richey for Asst Sec Office of Civil Rights at the Dept of Education. During Trump's 1st term, she ESTABLISHED the DEI office people are now being fired from.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

DOGE = Department of Gross Errors

Putting the “doh!” in #DOGE. 🤡 @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

That’s the problem. We’ve been standing by for too long.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

Thank you to everyone who has joined the resistance! Our ranks grow stronger every day.

Some federal employees who accepted Trump’s buyout offer are now being notified that their buyout has been denied, and they are being terminated instead.

Trump has YMCA as their anthem. I think we should use the chorus of Not Like Us by Kendrick Lamar.

Hands Off My Medicaid

Hey, here’s some of what @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social did today 👋🏽

Infographic showing how Elon Musk’s DOGE government waste reduction efforts overlap with lawsuits, investigations, & complaints, about Musk’s multiple companies. (Gift Article available in comments)

These pink states are a part of a lawsuit to end 504s by joining the lawsuit of Texas vs. Becerra. 504s protect children with a medical condition & ensure they are able to have their needs met. It doesn't cost the state anything. Reach out to your Attorney General & fight for kids.

Dear media, No, Trump isn’t “signaling” that he “might” ignore the courts. He. Is. Ignoring. The. Fucking. Courts. The end. Do your damn job.

PLEASE SHARE.

You'd think this was a parody account

Congress was denied entry to both the U.S. Department of Education and the Treasury, where Musk staffers blocked the doors. Along with its appropriations responsibilities, Congress holds oversight authority over federal agencies. Blocking congressional access to these agencies is illegal.

So how do those of us who live in very red states fight back? Our Congress representatives don't listen & continue to seek Trump's approval. Today I volunteered at my local food bank. Is there anything else we should be doing besides serving in local areas? I feel like we should do more.
