Ukraine war briefing: Trump turnaround as he acknowledges Russia invaded Ukraine

🧪 #resistrfk Lancet hasn't read the writing on the wall yet. Not only are researchers and institutions not going to criticize Junior and MAGA pseudoscience, they're going to compete for their attention for non-peer reviewed funding. MAGA peer review. Only those that can see "the truth" need apply.

I’ve come to learn many people don’t know this!

I made a few of these for folks to use as they would like.

This is huge breaking news. Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Chief of Naval Ops, Vice of the Air Force and all three JAG’s of the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Watch this breaking news report we did for @votevets.org tonight. This is outragous. www.youtube.com/live/OdOjEdR...

"The crowd again started shouting “tax Elon,” “tax the wealthy,” “tax the rich” and “tax the billionaires.” " www.lagrandeobserver.com/news/local/r...

If you look at all the firings across the government over the last two weeks it's frequently been taken as a given that any black or woman official or officer is either a DEI hire or supports DEI and is summarily fired on that basis. Seems like the same model here.

“If you had to guess the leading cause of death for children and young people around the world, what would you say? Malaria perhaps? Pneumonia? Suicide? They’re all high up there, but no, it’s road accidents.”

TRUMP: The NCAA has complied immediately. That's good. But I understand Maine -- is the governor of Maine here? JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here TRUMP: Are you not gonna comply? JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all

It’s only right for him to be on the first flight to Mars. It’s his baby.

There’s something happening in this country.

NEW Republican Congressman Troy Balderson, who reps an R+18 district in Ohio, says President Trump’s executive orders are “getting out of control.” “Congress has to decide whether or not the Departmnet of Education goes away. Not the president. Not Elon Musk. Congress decides,” Balderson said.

Very fiery and forceful pro-Ukraine speech by Senator Tillis in the Senate on Wednesday, specifically mentioning Trump, drawing a contrast in their positions. He just got back from Ukraine"

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Well now.

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

Steve Rattner on plans to cut spending, especially Medicaid

Mitch is one of the singular villains of American history, personally responsible for the destruction of our democracy and our government at a level above anyone save Trump himself he is a vile man on the level of John Calhoun and should be remembered as such

Just a heads-up that Subaru uses that POS's Starlink for its connected service. When I was shopping for a car recently, I deliberately wouldn't consider a Subaru because of this association.

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.

Murphy: "The game is clear. We can see it. They're not even hiding it. There is not a rule of law anymore. There is one set of law for people who are loyal to Donald Trump, and there is one set of law for people who care criticize him. That is not democracy."

POLISH PM TUSK: LET'S FINANCE AID FOR UKRAINE FROM FROZEN RUSSIAN ASSETS.

“the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

“For almost 250 years, the USA has been a beacon of democracy and freedom,” he said. “It should have a president who respects those ideas, and I will gladly relocate from Ukraine to do the job.”

fact check: since congestion pricing started, subway crime is down 36%.

The political juggernaut that members of Congress from both parties cower in fear of - already heading back to his familiar territory of low 40s approval one month into his presidency www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

at some point he is going to personally smash something important to every single person in this country and it depends whether or not they can bring themselves to accept that he’s done it there is nothing here but an endless, rapacious desire to destroy

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Faith leaders across the US agree: suspending foreign assistance is immoral. #saveforeignaid circleofprotection.us/wp-content/u...

If Hochul is scoring on him, it’s open season. Have at it, Dems.

More people ride the NYC subway each day than all domestic air travel.

A coalition of congressional Republicans from the New York area rebuked President Trump for cuts to a federal program that administers aid to emergency workers and others suffering from toxins related to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

Former 🇺🇸 ambassador to Russia 👇🏽

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

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

We’re not fooled. Elon owns DOGE and we won’t let people forget that.

Dark Pence is back.

And fully half of it is a humiliating error where they mistake the value of a contract by 1000x confusing 8 million with 8 BILLION

We won't link to the ridiculously and typically inaccurate NY Post account, but here's the letter that USDOT sent to Governor Hochul rescinding approval of congestion pricing. The Governor and @newyorkstateag1.bsky.social need to fight this tooth and nail. ops.fhwa.dot.gov/memorandum/V...

FAA Employees Say Trump and Musk’s Purge Is a ‘Threat’ to Air Safety After firing hundreds of Federal Aviation Administration employees, the Trump administration is now attempting to downplay safety concerns www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

A person on Reddit claiming to be a former worker at the National Parks says "irreversible damage" is being done, especially after Trump decided to fire a huge amount of staff: "The wildlife is suffering, the plants are suffering, and the experts who are there to mitigate the destruction are gone."

A lot of locals were very surprised to get the notice from the senior center that they just lost a huge chunk of their meals on wheels funding. As this shit starts hitting people closer to home it’s going to be pretty radicalizing! I had a lot of raging grannies (complimentary) blowing up my phone.
