Medicaid cuts? Republicans are telling 930,000 nursing home patients to go live somewhere else. Republicans are telling the FAMILIES of those nursing home patients to figure out what to do without the nursing home. 930,000 elderly have NO CARE without Medicaid.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

“I think we’re all familiar with the old adage, 'When the going gets tough, the tough get going to Florida for a Saudi-backed golf event'...” www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Anna Paulina Luna didn’t want to talk to her constituents. So I did.

“They are diverting money and manpower away from federal investigations into child abuse, drug trafficking, tax fraud and money laundering and redirecting them to indiscriminate immigration arrests and even to snoop through the private tax returns of every American.” #AtWhatCost

When you look at this crowd AOC is drawing today, here’s the part you should remember. This is Greeley, Colorado where GOP Congressman Gabe Evans refuses to hold a town hall. They should all be counting their days in office.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Bernie is passing the torch. Because the man understands Father Time is undefeated. This is one of the most hopeful signs I've seen in a long time.

⚡️FIGHT THE OLIGARCHY RALLY ⚡️ STARTING TOMORROW. Nevada. Arizona. Colorado. You, me, and Bernie. Dem and GOP districts. ❤️💙 See you there 💪🏽🌞

He has to go. @chuckschumer.com

It's pretty wild to see what the Tesla Takedown people have built from nothing, totally organically in just two months. actionnetwork.org/event_campai...

Who is Chuck Schumer? Oof @heatherthomasaf.bsky.social

The cruelty is boundless

I’ll be on CNN at 6 with @jaketapper.bsky.social to discuss Senate Democrats’ responsibility to protect the federal government and vote NO on cloture and the GOP spending bill

A smarter America would’ve rejected fascist republicans decades ago which is why they continue to want to destroy education because more stupid people vote for them.

Dave #Weldon is up for #CDC Director. His Senate hearings are on Thursday. He thinks vaccines cause autism, doubts the safety of MMR vaccines. CALL YOUR SENATORS: 202-224-3121. We have a call sheet here, with lists of Senators and a script to use: docs.google.com/document/d/1....

Yesterday I sat down with Josh Weil who’s running for congress in Florida’s special election! This was a really good conversation and I think more people need to hear it and be aware of Florida’s special election.

Imagine a guy running at you with a broadsword and you hold up a little sign that says “yikes” like you’re Wile E Coyote

I’m going to help y’all understand why we are losing. Trump raises a fist in the air and says “Fight, fight, fight!” He rallies and inspires his base, wrong though they are. Dems holds auction signs with trite sayings in the air and sit quietly with decorum as they are lied to and insulted.

Absolutely stunning. Trump to Chief Justice Roberts: "Thank you again. Thank you again. I won't forget."

What will it take to get it through people's heads?

The new Big Lie about Social Security. There isn't massive fraud. 150 year olds don't get benefits. Undocumented workers can't get benefits (although they often pay in to the program). I repeat: the new Big Lie is about Social Security. Will magas fall for it when their checks stop?

Dude says we have to take care of our law enforcement FUCK YOU!!! YOU ASSHOLE YOU PARDONED OUR ATTACKERS

NEW: A source tells me that response teams for FEMA set to deploy to the South Carolina wildfires are unable to travel because their government issued travel cards have had their limits reduced to $1. FEMA response team cards were supposed to be exempt.

Too bad for South Carolina I mean seriously. When are people going to stop voting for fucking republicans

Left-wing censorship was a fantasy, but the right-wing censorship is real, unconstitutional, and murderous. There was no majority anti-conservative social media bias or casual forced use of words like “birthing person.” But stripping protest rights and official language is actual deadly censorship

Some of Musk’s DOGE staffers are drawing robust, six-figure, taxpayer-funded salaries from the very federal agencies they are slashing and burning. Musk has not made DOGE’s spending or salary ranges publicly available. www.wired.com/story/doge-g...

Elon Musk's maternal grandparents relocated from Canada to South Africa in the early 1900s, where they were in the German Nazi Party. They supported Hitler and then went to South Africa, a stronghold of support for Nazism outside of Germany. Musk was an anti-semite and an apartheid lover.

DOGE DOLE ROLE ROTE RATE RAGE You need to know about Curtis Yarvin and his RAGE plot, because DOGE is quite literally a hoax—a fascist plot to end our democracy in disguise. That plot is known among fascists via an acronym: RAGE. www.jamestownsun.com/opinion/lett...

Yeah, ya think? "They are there to make sure we handle and store these materials in a way that avoids a nuclear chain reaction from occurring..... Losing these folks is concerning.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

This declaration, which describes how fucked up and inaccurate USAID firing emails that have come out (including one signed by Gavin Kligler), ends this way. legacy.www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

NEW: Voice of America is in upheaval. Journalists are facing HR investigations for comments critical of Trump. One of VOA's highest-profile journalists was put on leave today after a Trump aide called him a traitor. And the White House bureau chief was reassigned. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/b...

A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit brought by the SEC against a crypto founder accused of illegally using millions of dollars in investor funds to buy a 555-carat black diamond known as “The Enigma.”

Rieckhoff: He's losing his women and children. His cities are being bombed, and we're talking about his clothes? It was victim shaming, which is what trump has been doing to Zelenskyy and Ukraine since before he got elected. It's unacceptable.

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

In 2013, Trump tweeted that he wanted to be best friends with Putin. Nothing that happened today is a surprise. Trump has been looking to be Putin‘s wing man for a dozen years. This afternoon, he demonstrated his love for that tyrannical thug.

Trump is too much of a coward to say a bad thing to Putin, yet he dares lecture Zelensky? Russia is on the verge of collapse and Trump/Vance are desperate to save them

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

Anger. Righteous anger. We need more of it in this country.
