Pause this video to find out which JD Vance you are.

Rieckhoff: And what I would tell folks is: if they treat veterans like this, if they treat retired generals like this, how do you think they're going to treat everyone else? How do you think they're going to treat you? We are just first.

Dems need to keep fighting, but not by shaking canes. The visual is awful They need to win back young people, it’s going to take a change in HOW and WHAT you message.

Kenyatta: Trump in just six weeks has made life more expensive, has made America sicker, has made us weaker. And he got up on that stage and just lied to the American people. The only American energy that was unleashed was the full gaslighting that we saw in front of our face.

As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address: Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.

Crockett: This is not what we should be doing. I don’t even know why we’re fighting with Greenland. We’re fighting with Greenland, Canada, and Mexico—yet we’re in love with Putin?!

Laughter breaks out after Trump says: The days of rule by unelected bureaucrats are over.

We just walked out of the state of the Union. My shirt showed Trump an important message: NO KINGS LIVE HERE. In the spirit of student protestors from the Civil Rights Movement, I’m proud to have protested and walked out with many of my colleagues. This is NOT a normal time.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

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

Neguse: I can certainly assure you that my constituents who are seeing their 401K balances vanish in real time would not describe your policies as common sense

An official at USAID has been placed on leave after writing a memo to staff — including those placed on leave or laid off — saying the funding cuts and layoffs from Trump and Musk "will no doubt result in preventable death, destabilization, and threats to national security on a massive scale."

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

help, I’m trapped in the most embarrassing mashup of Red Dawn and Idiocracy

Measles outbreaks are back. Grocery and gas prices are up. Bird flu is spreading. All our allies hate us. Air travel is getting unsafe. The stock market is tanking. The government is about to shut down. And he’s only been President for six weeks. This is just the beginning.

Liz Cheney condemns Trump and Vance:   "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. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

On behalf of many Americans, don’t thank us we THANK YOU Ukraine for your work.

This. I have been turning beet red every time I see any major-media outlet imply that he is doing what he promised during the campaign. It is actually shocking, and possibly historic, how much of what he is doing was either explicitly disavowed during the campaign or simply never mentioned at all.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

Arizona AG Kris Mayes, New Mexico AG Raul Torrez, and Oregon AG Dan Rayfield will begin holding Community Impact Hearings — a national series of townhalls "to hear from the public about the impact of federal firings and DOGE funding freezes across the country." The first will be in Phoenix March 5.

I kept speaking anyways. I won’t let these neo-fascists stop me from telling the truth. Right after winning the election, Trump created a meme coin to grift off of the American people yet they want to focus on cutting Medicaid for kids.

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity. You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.

Kind of feels like there wasn’t a mandate to destroy the health insurance program that covers 24% of Americans in order to fund a giant tax giveaway for billionaires and corporations, but maybe it’s just me.

AOC: The order has come down to this committee. Find $880 billion to pay for a tax cuts on yachts, jets, billionaires, and mega corporations while working class people pay higher tax rates than Facebook does. Undocumented immigrants pay more in taxes than many large corporations

Elon Musk and his 19-year-olds have now disrupted the approval of medical devices that save lives. Every member of Congress bears a responsibility to stop this right now.

Why am I NOT surprised to see that House Republicans are pushing ahead with their budget plan to cut TRILLIONS from the budget at the expense of American people? CUT Medicaid, CUT food programs for our seniors and children. They’re just looking out for their billionaire buddies.

BREAKING: Josh Shapiro just sued Donald Trump and won, unfreezing $2.1 billion in funds the administration tried to freeze. Another win for Democrats in the courts. Don’t let anyone tell you Donald Trump is unstoppable.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid. So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

"'We’re bringing attention to what’s happening to the parks, which are every American’s properties,' said Gavin Carpenter, a maintenance mechanic with Yosemite and military veteran who supplied the flag and helped hang it." www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

I try to keep the language on here… PG… but in this case i can’t. You, Trump, are a traitorous piece of shit

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

They’re probably equally evil but it’s tremendously fucked up that Elon (worst poster in the history of the medium) might be tweeting for Trump (naturally gifted at posting)

This is how dictators talk btw

Trump has signed an executive order halting federal funds for schools that require students to be vaccinated against COVID before they can attend classes in person.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz (@zezvaz.bsky.social):

BREAKING: As the Trump administration works to rehire the critical nuclear safety experts they fired – they can’t figure out how to reach some of the employees. Unbelievable.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Egg prices hit another all time high in the US, $7.44 per dozen, now up 21% since Trump took office. My local grocery store was out of 19 of 20 varieties today. Of course, it's bird flu...but Trump said he'd take are of it and lower prices, didn't he?

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

🎯🎯🎯

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

The Holocaust started as a mass deportation

Feel deep in my bones that the backlash to all of this is going to be enormous. Not sure how it will manifest and when it will explode into view, but confident it’s coming.
