None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Overflow angry crowd for town hall with Glenn Grothman in Oshkosh this morning ... www.wpr.org/news/glenn-g...

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

I did not know. Bye Bye @politico.com

@betoorourke.bsky.social speaks for me! #BetoSpeaksForMe This is a great interview with @dworkin.bsky.social #BravoBeto Please share this link: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/exclusive-...

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

"The crowd again started shouting 'tax Elon,' 'tax the wealthy,” “tax the rich' and 'tax the billionaires.'" The county went 68% for Trump www.lagrandeobserver.com/news/local/r...

saying it again: if there are "conditions" on aid to california, no democrat should vote for any disaster aid of any kind to any state. all states get aid or no states get aid. that's it

Talk of a "Feb 28 Economic Blackout" is spreading on social media.

The cruelty from this administration is in part to distract from their rampant incompetence. They want you outraged so you forget that they “mistakenly” fired scientists combatting bird flu and the experts that maintain our nuclear weapons.

This is quite significant in many ways: the overt thuggery, Trump’s barely suppressed fury at being contradicted by a woman, the governor’s standing up, the total abandonment of the pretense of federalism, the continuing use of trans Americans the way Hitler used Jews.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

It's twisted! If Republicans fear Trump, new, fearless, courageous Republicans (or Democrats) should take their place. Fear can't be the main impediment in Republicans doing the job they were elected to do. The entire GOP is being held hostage by an old, demented, mad man dreaming to be a dictator.

because "free speech"

Bessent cognitive dissonance count: - tariffs not a sales tax, sales taxes are tariffs - strong dollar without FX weakness elsewhere - revenues from tariffs without imports - revenues from tariffs but they're just a negotiation tool - We want lower rates but don't want Fed to cut did I miss any?

Here's @bluestein.bsky.social's uncensored thread of the town hall held by Rep. Rich McCormick (R-GA), in which an unhappy audience pushes back against DOGE cuts: threadreaderapp.com/thread/18927...

Morning BlueSkyFamily 🦋 Anyone else ? ⬇️

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

A 10% universal tariff on $3.25 trillion of annual US merchandise imports would potentially raise ~$300 billion. Last year, US personal income tax brought in nearly 30x that.

Well, we're going to need a plan at the rate it's going.

I'm preaching to the choir. But this!👇👇👇👇

Trump is now an aide in Russia’s regime change plan for Ukraine. Europeans need to act NOW, not after the German elections, to make sure Ukrainians have an alternative. All the worst came true and there is no other way to put it than that the US is in Russia’s team now.

I find Brian to be the most informed, trenchant, fearless, and literate tech critic/journalist and have a paid subscription to BLOOD IN THE MACHINE and everyone should.

He said he wanted to be a dictator...

“I have many people I love that are trans, young, dissident… and I’m terrified for them.” Listen to some voices from America's new protest front lines.

👇👇 Not only from USAID losses. Also lost commercial exports due to ever evolving trade war and loss of labor to harvest crops from immigration issue. Financial ruin is on the near horizon for many of our farmers.
