This is truly important!

They took the place of cigarette ads. Both need to be gone from our YVs forever.

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

He nails it.

Anyone else find this to be a not so subtle Trojan horse? www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Pay attention. She’s right.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Cuts to NSF expected to be at 50% reduction in force for an independent agency that fuels discovery and innovation. "The NSF budget was $9B, or 0.13% of the total [budget]." This is not about fiscal prudence. This is about killing universities. nanoscale.blogspot.com/2025/02/the-...

The Pentagon is now pausing their mass firing of civilian employees in order to evaluate potential impacts on military readiness. I’m just spitballing here, but maybe a readiness assessment should have been the first step. 🤦‍♂️

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, ProPublica’s analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

NEW: It was supposed to be a triumphant return to Capitol Hill for Jan. 6ers vowing to sue the Justice Department. It ended with Enrique Tarrio's arrest for suspected simple assault. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

We don't know whether Trump was recruited by Russia in 1987 and codenamed #Krasnov but it's hard to think things would have turned out the way they have if it wasn’t true.

Get Ready For Delayed Tax Refunds, Long Hold Times After Mass IRS Firings But wealthy tax evaders will enjoy “a feast” as the strained federal agency lacks the resources to hold them accountable, said one tax policy expert.

Read the article. “Fired for cause” when that is a lie. ftw.usatoday.com/2025/02/nati...

Truth from new york post? Shocking and a tad late.

A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

The bonus will be that all the Mars-goers die of space cancer www.shesabeast.co/mars-radiati...

The MSM helped make this look like something other than what it was. Dipsticks think trump will be grateful and thank them for abetting? He won’t. He hasn’t yet.

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

Sorry. What?

The all important nuclear agency is losing its brightest stars thanks to Musk's DOGE, and it will be a nightmare for U.S. safety. With the NNSA already critically understaffed, this brain drain is a catastrophe unfolding in real-time. 😡 www.thedailybeast.com/doge-has-all...

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Watch the video if you have the stomach for it. Childish displays. I still can’t believe we voted for this. open.substack.com/pub/nickande...

Chris Murphy: "My prediction is that if you vote for Kash Patel, more than any other confirmation vote you make, you will come to regret this one to your grave."

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?
