He nails it.

Hegseth says firing of top military lawyers was about making sure "they don't exist to be roadblocks to anything that happens."

Dark Pence is back.

The guy in the WH refused to release his own tax returns, but he wants to give some random billionaire access to yours.

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

MAGA acts like finding fraud in government is some new thing DOGE invented. They aren’t good at it, but experts who were let go were.

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Exactly this.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: He choked. The market started to tank, and suddenly, he said, “Oh, didn’t you guys already have a plan to deal with the border back in December? I love that—I’ll take that.” This is Mr. Art of the Deal.

Listen closely to Lawrence O’Donnell’s account of the astonishing break-in Trump’s Treasury Secretary has allowed Elon Musk to pull off: youtu.be/BIOaxR_UHIQ?...

Hey everyone. It’s Feb 3rd, and the Democrats have been at home since Jan 24th because the house is out of session. They should have come back, the place is on fire. Get suing, messaging, demonstrating, speaking, everything and ANYTHING

This is a national emergency:

I asked Elon’s Grok 2 the question of whether and how you could destroy the country through insane trade wars and hijacking Treasury’s payment system. And I must say, what I got back seems to be a fairly good analysis.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

This is really what it’s all about. Nothing to do with “border security.” He is a ignorant, vengeful, demented, megalomaniacal narcissist.

I'm not surprised by trump's disgustingly negative attitude about disabled people. It's who he is, and who he's always been. This should have been the end.

Reminder: Canada is our closest ally and our friend 🇺🇸🇨🇦 Tariffs against Canada take affect Tuesday 🇺🇸 Retaliatory Tariffs against the US take affect also on Tuesday 🇨🇦 Lessons will be learned 🍿 #SheShed #MagaMorons

Musk’s allies were granted access to the U.S. Treasury payment system. Treasury stays silent. White House stays silent. Why the secrecy? Time for an explanation and full transparency.

TRUDEAU: “I want to speak directly to Americans — our closest friends and neighbors… yes, this will harm Canadians, but it will also have real consequences for you.” #TrumpTradeWar

Lots of stupid in this rant. There is, however, one admission. The pain will be real. It's coming.

There is absolutely zero justification to slap 25% tariffs on Canada. None whatsoever. I get how the dipshits can make their arguments about other countries with their half-assed arguments, but the Canada tariffs are madness. Complete insanity.

This is how autocrats throughout history have endangered the people they govern by erasing factual information vital to health and well being www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Footage of the incident that just occurred at Washington’s DCA airport. This was taken by the Kennedy Center webcam.

The catch-22 is that states try to cap premiums to protect their residents. When they do so, they distort the economics that have changed as a result of climate change, leading to them no longer offering coverage. This is an area the Dems can own by focusing on insurance destruction and inflation

In a letter, Kennedy said RFK Jr. was "unqualified" to be the new U.S. Department of Health and Human Services secretary just hours before he was scheduled to appear for confirmation hearings.

Don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth…and hope. Thanks @jimacosta.bsky.social

Trump fired independent inspectors general of at least 12 major federal agencies clearing the way to install loyalists in crucial roles of identifying fraud, waste & abuse in govt. Dismissals effective immediately altho federal law requires 30 days’ notice www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Of course ending birthright citizenship is blatantly unconstitutional. So is a third term in office. But I thought the same thing about presidential criminal immunity and holding office after inciting an insurrection. The obvious is not so obvious anymore.

This is the face of courage and compassion. Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde for speaking truth to power on behalf of the marginalized.

Trump repeatedly told voters he knew exactly how to end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours. So why is warmonger Trump allowing the senseless killing to continue when he knows how to end it so easily?

This is gold.

And there it is. Didn’t take long…

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Can’t stop at the Constitution. He has exploited everything his entire life.

Trump set the TikTok ban in motion Congress passed legislation Biden signs legislation SCOTUS upholds ban Biden says his administration wouldn’t enforce the law, leaving room for TikTok to stay open TikTok shuts down anyway Trump tweets TikTok pretends Trump saved it 🙄
