Extreme MAGA Republicans spent last year promising to lower costs. And lying about their connection to Project 2025. They have spent this year implementing the extreme Project 2025 agenda. And haven’t done a damn thing to lower the high cost of living.

We will expose and shut down the Republican Bait and Switch.

The extreme MAGA Republican budget will close hospitals, shut down nursing homes and deprive children of healthcare. There are 215 Democrats in the House who actually want to love and cherish Medicaid, not destroy it. We only need three House Republicans to join us.

Bird Flu is spreading across the nation and putting the country in danger. The Trump administration response is to fire USDA microbiologists fighting the disease. We are using every tool available to us to stop them.

”The beauty of the Imagination Library is that it unites us all regardless of politics because every child deserves the chance to dream big and succeed." Under the program, children receive a free book once a month until the age of 5 almost like it’s coming… www.thedailybeast.com/dolly-parton...

. General Mark Milley was right . . . ... and he's still right ! 💠 👊 💠

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

There is no such thing as peace talks without all of the players at the table.

President Trump's approach to the war in Ukraine is a reversal of the last three years, the editorial board writes, "but also a repudiation of a nearly eight-decade core belief that the United States was safer in a world where it stood against aggression and authoritarianism and for freedom."

The Mueller report was all about Russian influence into the 2016 campaign. But that’s not when it started. The former head of intelligence in Kazakhstan & former Soviet KGB officer Alnur Mussayev says that the KGB recruited Trump in 1987. Was Trump a sleeper cell for 30 years?

Ukraine has shown all of us around the world, what passion and patriotism looks like. For the past 3 years, they have stood tall and strong in the fight for democracy, sovereignty, freedom and humanity. Ukraine is all of us.

Fun fact: while Phony Stark and the DOGEbags are taking money from our veterans, the world’s poorest people and kids with cancer, Assistant President Poopy Pants has already spent nearly $11 million of our money… playing golf.

Democratic governors should have all walked out together midway through that meeting but especially after Trump's attack on Gov. Janet Mills. I don't know why they didn't. Makes no sense.

US Marshals Service deputizes Musk's security team: reports: The U.S. Marshals Service has deputized some of tech billionaire Elon Musk's private security detail, giving them specific rights and protections of federal law enforcement agents, multiple outlets reported Friday. Concerns for Musk's…

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

Terrifying

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Every single election will be stolen, WAKE THE FUCK UP!

🚨We’re coming together for an ALL HANDS ON DECK National Organizing Call to support MUST-WIN special elections that will flip the House and stop Trump. If you’ve been feeling powerless recently, this is your chance to take action against Trump. www.mobilize.us/floridadems/...

Representative Jasmine Crockett has got to be the most authentic politician I have ever seen — can we have 💯 more of her please? #TheView @repjasmine.bsky.social

Proud of my governor!

Because of course he did.

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?

Incredible stuff in here: They ID'ed him, in part, by going to court hearings and watching him post

Musk toys with the idea of appeasing Americans with $5K each from the demolition of our government institutions- While he gets 8 MILLION from our government EVERY DAY. Call me crazy, but I’d rather aviation safety, food inspection, med research, & our nuclear team. go.forbes.com/c/fXJz

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

Ok, who wrote this 😅🤣

@aoc.bsky.social it's time . Put down your internet weapons and get to the cameras every day with a message . No need to take questions just try to own the day . If you don't, they will.

Hi @washingtonpost.com Is this the ad your pig of an owner stopped from print? Freedom of the press my ass.

Fired Department of Labor IG Larry Turner found $191B in improper COVID unemployment payments, much of it fraud, and was hunting down $135B more when he was fired. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

At Mar-a-Lago, Michael Flynn claimed the Constitution “took decades” to write. Fact check: The Constitution was drafted by the Constitutional Convention in 116 days.

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

These are deeply stupid and destructive people. NATO has provided stability since it formed in 1949 after the deadliest war in human history.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes…

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.
