Firing 7000 IRS agents will make it even easier for the rich to get away with skirting what they owe. But it's also a gift to the multi-billion dollar tax prep industry. Fewer IRS agents to help you file your taxes means more money in the pockets of companies like TurboTax.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

You don't fire Judge Advocates General unless you plan on issuing unlawful orders. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-f...

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Impeach 🍊💩 and kick Herr Musk to the curb.

Unfortunately I won’t be to DC in time, but this rally for Ukraine is happening in Lincoln memorial. Attend if you can and Slava Ukrainii!

Reminder, the GOP is aiding and abetting trump... they are also aiding and abetting Russia and other adversaries of the United States. They are doing so by dividing the states. You would think that the party of Lincoln who said "A house divided against itself cannot stand" would know better.

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

FUN FACT: maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority AND The resistance is the MAJORITY! We will defeat you as your only plan is destroying our country while lining your pockets. Keep flooding the zone. We’re watching & we will win!!

It gets more disturbing by the hour www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

The DoD has never passed an audit and no doubt its spending should be reviewed. But Sec Hegseth knows little about how DoD works, and less about national security. It would be a good idea to bring in some expertise rather than just throwing the axes.  www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Despite facing declining poll numbers and growing constituent unrest, Trump is now publicly urging Elon Musk to intensify his efforts.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Peace plan.

Good morning friends! Sending you all a big hug on this Friday morning. Today I will be trying to remember that even small acts of kindness and love matter—and to do a few.

"One of the nation’s most prominent law firms, Sullivan & Cromwell, has made its decision, and it is the wrong one. S&C recently announced its ambition to become the leading Wall Street “MAGA” law firm by taking on the representation of Trump in the appeal of his “hush money” felony conviction"

This is how many hours per week a person needs to work in order to escape poverty. The US is dead last. #Poverty #USA

👇more of this dammit‼️

😱

i think it is cool that de facto first consul of the united states is a drug-addled maniac and deadbeat dad with a breeding fetish

trump wants to be able to tell the USPS not to deliver ballots to blue states www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

And who they didn't like

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family.   By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, ProPublica’s analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

Get Ready For Delayed Tax Refunds, Long Hold Times After Mass IRS Firings But wealthy tax evaders will enjoy “a feast” as the strained federal agency lacks the resources to hold them accountable, said one tax policy expert.

NY law firm Sullivan & Cromwell is enthusiastically joining Donald Trump's effort to undermine the justice system. It’s sad to see a firm clients have long turned to for counsel on how to comply with the law rendering itself into an instrument for promoting lawlessness, I diacuss in PN.

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists
