For the record, the idea of the entire federal workforce flooding an OPM email inbox with their weekly task reports is insurmountable stupid.

You don't fire the military lawyers (JAG) and the Chairman of Joint Chiefs if you aren't planning on pushing your "Commander in Chief" status to the limit. Let's hope there are soldiers who will uphold their oath since our leaders aren't.

I snapped this on 3/27/19. Seven days later, the Trump administration canceled my remote work and moved my job 2,300 miles away and I had to move or be fired. Three months later, they investigated my podcast. The rest, as they say, is history.

If we liquidated Elon, every American could get a check for $1 million dollars

There are 3 special elections coming up and those 3 seats are the keys to stopping the Congressional Republicans doing Trump & Musk’s evil bidding. We need just 1 seat to block them, 2 seats to stop them, and with all 3 we can FLIP THE HOUSE. Join us!! Monday 2/24 @7:30 EST. 👇👇 mobilize.us/s/Y9NrBb

Tesla floods Dutch used car market amid declining new sales No one wants to drive a Swastikar, apparently, people are ditching their Teslas #TeslaTakedown nltimes.nl/2025/02/22/t...

Five things I accomplished last week: 1. Sued Musk & DOGE (repeatedly) 2. Got Musk blocked out of Treasury 3. Sued Trump (repeatedly) 4. Helped persuade SCOTUS to leave anti-Trump injunction in place 5. Got booked @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social Join us at 9 AM ET Sunday morning to discuss!

DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine is the grandson of Valery Martynov - a “former” KGB spy. That’s right, one of Elon Musk’s young cyber criminals — related to a former KGB spy, and who seemingly did not have to undergo a background check — now has unprecedented access to…

Yeah I keep thinking that the story of a powerful person who carelessly wrecks large numbers of ordinary people’s lives usually ends poorly

There are basically two ways to save a country suffering from a wannabe strongman.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Gen. C.Q. Brown was at the U.S.-Mexico border when he was fired. Gen. Brown was fired as he was evaluating the military’s role in supporting U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB). Fired as he was tending to one of Trump’s top priorities — border security.

Trump didn't just fire the four-star generals. He's also removing the JAGs for the Army, Navy and Air Force — critical positions that ensure enforcement of military justice. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Odd how the turns have tabled… Trump reversed course and admitted that Russia did, in fact, invade Ukraine. International news sources and independent media have stepped up to keep Americans informed.

Telehealth isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. For many of my patients with Long COVID and disabilities, in-person visits are exhausting, inaccessible, or simply not feasible. Removing telehealth coverage means denying care to those who need it most. We must protect access to virtual care.

Call me old fashioned, but being Russia’s KGB agent “Krasnov” since 1987 should disqualify Trump from being President of the United States. Retroactively, immediately, and forever.

🚨BREAKING: @democracyforward.org sues on behalf of unions, retirees to block access to personal and sensitive data at SSA. This case comes after SSA commissioner stepped down due to concerns about DOGE accessing data. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Rep McCormick (Roswell—safe red) can’t gaslight his constituents—but they need to wake up. He won’t do a damn thing to stop Trump. A woman asks about Trump declaring himself “king” & what he will do to stop him. His smugness is off the charts. This is the guy who said hungry kids should get jobs.

Now, a groundbreaking analysis by ProPublica shows just how dire the situation has become in Texas since the state implemented a six-week abortion ban in 2021, followed by an even more draconian, near-total ban after the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade in 2022.

Social Security Offices are critical because many people, including the disabled, cannot actually access benefits without being in person. SSA closures led to a 16% decline in disability benefit receipt-w/largest impact on those w/moderately severe disabilities www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...

DOGE’s expenses have risen above 40 million, with weekly costs now exceeding 10 million. We will release an updated DOGE staff list soon.

Our voices matter: The White House restored funding for the 9/11 first responder survivors’ health program after an uproar from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle ensued following the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) cuts last week. thehill.com/policy/healt...

A disabled veteran from Salt Lake City was laid off from his job at the VA (Veterans Affairs). Thousands of stories like this are cropping up all over America. Amplify every one of them. www.fox13now.com/news/local-n...

"UnitedHealth shares dive after report of US investigation into Medicare billing." - AP

Musk and DOGE are closing local Social Security offices, making it hard for people with disabilities to access help. Frank Bisignano, former FISERV CEO, is Trump’s nominee for commissioner of Social Security. He is likely to expand this. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Trump was willing to stand up there for a few minutes to pretend to care about black history, but hugging the guy was a deal breaker.

Oh. Hi Leo

A MUST-SEE‼️ The PayPal Mafia—Musk, Thiel, Sacks, and Botha—have ties to apartheid South Africa & a hand in US policy and the election. • Elon Musk – Unelected co-president, dismantling the government for his own gain. FUN FACT: His grandfather wanted to scrap democracy for technocrat rule. 🧵

Wow! Congrats to Bluesky for passing the milestone of 32 MILLION users. Spread the word!! 💙🦋 bsky-users.theo.io

Listen to @radiofreetom.bsky.social! "Now that Trump has captured the intelligence services, the Justice Department, and the FBI, the military is the last piece he needs to establish the foundations for authoritarian control of the U.S. government."

Yes around 1987 I was working in NYC and Krasnov was busy going Bankrupt 6 times and the only Bank that would work with him was Deutsche Bank and his Personal Banker was Justice Kennedy's Son! www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-ch...

thx to youtube discord reddit tumblr no thanks to the @democraticpartyhq.bsky.social who can’t walk/chew gum no worries they will find a way to mess it up

Heroin addict and roadkill enthusiast, RFK Jr. kills flu shot campaigns and cancels a major vaccination conference.

There’s not a word in this story about the corrupt nature of this dismissal. Not a concern voiced, not a question raised, not even an acknowledgment that he’s the president’s biggest donor and he’s acting as an unelected, unconfirmed tyro wielding unchecked power over spending and the civil service.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Germans will vote on Sunday for a new chancellor, a critical component of Europe’s response to President Trump’s second term, and a choice that will resonate far beyond the country’s borders.
