Looking like a dork aside, hurting grandma, the economy, and the military without much thought is definitely peak MAGA.

This type of interaction exemplifies the danger of Donald Trump. Take a minute and imagine if a Democratic President did this. We will continue to hold Trump accountable.

In the UK they acknowledge Israel's US funded war crimes and Netanyahu's close friendship with Trump and Putin. Protestors carried a banner reading: "From Ukraine To Palestine, Occupation is a Crime" (📷 @UkraineSol ) #3E #EndOligarchy #EndImpunity #UKprotests #StandWithUkraine

If this is the level of reckless sloppiness and shoddy work that is now taking over our government, do you trust them to keep our food safe, our airplanes from crashing, and our towns warned in advance and protected when tornadoes are coming? www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

“This is a playbook that Musk has run before. [Twitter] lost an estimated 72 percent of its value from what Musk paid for it. Is that the fate that we are comfortable with for our federal government?”@nschneidman.bsky.social told the @washingtonpost.com

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are grinding lifesaving research into diseases like cancer to a halt — all so they can fund a tax break for themselves and their wealthy friends. This puts cures to diseases further away and I’ll fight back every way I can. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/s...

US officials are reportedly threatening to revoke Starlink access for Ukraine if they don’t give us 50% of their mineral rights. That’s not diplomacy, it’s extortion. We’re also pushing them to kill a UN Resolution that blames Russia for starting the war. Facts matter.

Pay attention to Tim Snyder.

One of the more alarming announcements, given the Trump administration’s trashing of conventions across the federal government, was the dismissal of the most senior lawyers of the army, navy and air force econ.st/41CNv3H

If you or a loved one live in the Southern US, especially TX or New Mexico and are unaware of your Measles vaccine status, take the step to get your measles titers drawn to confirm protection.

Wealthy elites know that tax cuts for the super-rich are extremely unpopular. It’s why they try to distract us with scapegoats like immigrants, trans people, and a catch-all like DEI. Don’t fall for it.

It was another full week of advocacy as our volunteers took to their state Capitols to meet with lawmakers about the importance of strengthening and protecting gun safety laws. 🧵

USDA launches review of Maine after Maine Governor's interaction with Trump...

My new DCReport.org column detailing how Donald Trump in just 32 days established himself as America's first dictator, the very thing I've warned about for almost 10 years: www.dcreport.org/2025/02/22/t...

Yes yes yes!!! The EU is waking up. Stand strong, EU.

This is direct theft of taxpayer money for political purposes. It is literally stealing.

This is actually very important to protecting democracy.

“I want you to thank me.” 💰Kristi Noem says Trump told her to spend $200 MILLION (taxpayer dollars) running ads thanking him for his immigration crackdown. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

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

No, I have full confidence that Trump's Whore Kash Patel isn't an idiot, why do you ask?

Thank you, @sarahcpr.bsky.social for bringing DEI back

I don’t know about y’all, but I’m starting to think the only thing that kept the planes from crashing before was diversity.

According to an analyst, Elon Musk often goes into “Demon Mode” and doesn’t even remember what he’s done after he comes out of it. But thank God we don’t have a woman amirite

Thrilled to find Sarah Cooper here! It will all be OK now, folks. Sarah is on it. @sarahcpr.bsky.social

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

A profile of Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the Navy's top officer, who spent roughly half of her 40-year career at sea, commanding a destroyer, two carrier strike groups and the U.S. Sixth Fleet, & whom current Defense Secretary and former Fox & Friends co-host Pete Hegseth fired tonight.

Completely nuts.

Действительно, очень большие яички!!

Make it make sense! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Report from the new front line: Tried to electronically file my 2024 federal tax return. It was rejected because I was missing one IRS-issued number. When I accessed the IRS.gov page to retrieve it, a notice said the page was down for 'routine maintenance' - in the middle of tax filing season?

Good call Now: Hochul - remove this devious scumbag www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/n...

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

i see everything’s going well in new york

We need to remember what we’re capable of. Every day let your mind be blown by something you do, read, listen to, or create. That is one way we get through this—to remain open to everything that is wondrous in the world. www.marytrump.org/p/what-it-co...

I repeat…

President Trump banning the Associated Press from an event over their usage of "Gulf of Mexico" instead of "Gulf of America" may seem more absurd than alarming, but Trump's attacks on the free press are no joke.

This will end up as one of the largest tax hikes in years and the fact that even a single major media operation is not framing it that way is obscene in my opinion

And I hope someone will call Social Services to do a check on this young boy, who apparently is being used as a political accessory.

We are in the Twilight Zone.
