“RUSSIA CAN STOP THE WAR ANYTIME BY LEAVING UKRAINIAN LAND.”

Trump’s Golf Trips Have Cost an Estimated $10.7M in Just 30 Days 🚨In this video, we review report revealing that Trump has spent an estimated $10.7 million in taxpayer funds on golf—just in his first 30 days. youtube.com/shorts/iKrcZ...

One of the Trump Administration’s conditions on disaster aid is to eliminate the California Coastal Commission. Look up Altadena, it’s where one of the fires happened. What does an inland community have to do with this? Nothing. Trump Admin should be ashamed.

Someone got $38 billion in government funding.

So easy to forget this, so inspiring to hear.

Why does National Institutes of Health funding matter? It’s the fuel to find cures for: - Cancer - Alzheimer’s - Cystic Fibrosis - Pediatric Cancer - ALS - MS - Parkinson’s Trump tried to cut it, but thanks to AG Campbell, a judge blocked the cuts. This is why we fight.

Tesla isn’t going to survive. Sales are down nearly 50% in Europe. Keep the boycott going. Your protests are working. #3E #endoligarchy #boycotttesla

all the russiagate stuff was true

Elon Musk and his 19-year-olds have now disrupted the approval of medical devices that save lives. Every member of Congress bears a responsibility to stop this right now.

the IOC pulling the Olympics out of LA feels like one of the few potential consequences that anybody in power might care about I doubt they will and maybe things are far enough along that they can't, but I would like them to

Look at this leader. Lift her up.

For everyone in awe of LeBron James still playing at a high level at his age, remember that Diana Taurasi is TWO AND A HALF YEARS older than he is, and just retired today.

So the near-miss at Midway today where the SWA jet and the WestJet were about literal stone's throw from each other? That's, like... Progress? For the Trump/Duffy FAA I mean.

My goodness am I looking forward to Charlie Cale figuring out how John Mulaney did a murder in Poker Face s2.

Dems talking themselves into validating Trump/Musk attacks on the Constitution by voting for Republicans' budget out of fear Dems will take the blame if a GOP trifecta fails to pass it, and guessing that this is what swing voters will have front of mind 20 months later, would be utterly pathetic.

Wild. Bond villain stuff. Conflict of interest doesn’t even begin to describe this. The national security concerns here are off the charts. www.cnn.com/2025/02/25/b...

This is an INCREDIBLY serious story for Washington, DC. There is one prosecutor for DC: the federal/DOJ US Attorney for DC. That's a Trump-appointed position now. The Trump appointee is corrupt, venal, MAGA. Here the DC police wanted to prosecute a crime, and the Trump USAO SAID NO. 1/

I'm gonna remind people that I feel pretty strongly that if you bought one of my ebooks legitimately, then you own the book and however you secure that ownership is fine by me mashable.com/article/how-...

your regular reminder that basically all of the most unhinged maddow-brained Russiagate stuff was 100% true and Trump just successfully covered it up by obstructing justice, firing prosecutors, and then pardoned his co-conspirators.

Keep it going! #TeslaTakedown

so, Cuba abstained but here we are alongside our other longtime allies and friends: Belarus, Eritrea, North Korea, Russia, Sudan....

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

In addition to being unqualified to hold ANY government job Dan Bongino is also a coward and hypocrite, incapable of engaging in political conversation Because his ideas are generally ludicrous conspiracy theories, totally devoid of fact So OF COURSE Trump named him as Deputy Director of the FBI

Still incredible.

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

Do this. Say this. 👇🏻

Age yourself with movie you saw in a theater.

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

100000000% THIS Remember Mitch McConnell's strategy was to use unchallenged seats on school boards, city councils, etc to build a foundation of extreme right-wing power. Progressives need to do the same. This is why I donate to @runforsomething.net monthly. If you're willing, they'll help you run.

This is a shamefully racist movement that should be resisted by every person of good will. @brian-goldstone.bsky.social’s forthcoming book is incredible and it’s honestly the archive’s loss (and the nation’s). www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/a...

happy friday! just leaving this here...
