Yes, it’s deeply depressing to know that They Knew but even worse that it’s literally Hiding in Plain Sight and people STILL CHOOSE not to see it.

Donald Trump is junking the transatlantic alliance www.economist.com/internationa... From The Economist

There should be no deal. Russia should leave Ukraine.

MAGA voted to destroy the planet for their grandchildren. Wait ‘til they grow up & figure out what you’ve done.

This is too much. We should not have to put up with this man.

Exactly. Musk is an evil, sociopathic piece of shit, to be sure, but he’s also bone-stupid. Extraordinarily dumb. Like Trump, his main superpower is shamelessness to an almost surreal level.

Leave my fuckin Social Security alone!!! It belongs to me!! It's MY money!!!

Detailed and clear post on the dangerous implications of firing all the top military lawyers from Charlie Dunlap sites.duke.edu/lawfire/2025...

DOGE’s Only Public Ledger Is Riddled With Mistakes www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

This man needs therapy.

Eww. Sickening! We don’t want aything “back”! Trump is a horrible man!

“The unknown was not as scary as being complicit and not speaking up.” Some federal employees, both in public and behind closed doors, are resisting Elon Musk’s orders using whatever means they have. nyti.ms/3D4V7T2

Who is Elon? Why is he given such power in our country over our workers? Can’t our elected leaders shed their fear and stand up to him and trump?

DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine is the grandson of Valery Martynov - a “former” KGB spy. That’s right, one of Elon Musk’s young cyber criminals — related to a former KGB spy, and who seemingly did not have to undergo a background check — now has unprecedented access to…

Not content with purchasing the presidency, Elon Musk now wants to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court as well. His PAC just pumped $1M into supporting anti-choice right-wing extremist Brad Schimel. Wisconsin — don't become Musk's latest acquisition! Vote @crawfordforwi.bsky.social.

How do you get others to feel bold and determined? Go there first. Be bold and determined. If you do it congruently…others will follow you. Be. The. Example.

Do you make less than $360,000 a year? Your taxes are about to go UP. And you have Trump, Musk, and the Republicans to thank for it.

As the Atlantic's @radiofreetom.bsky.social explains, Trump is capturing all the key ministries one needs to hold power in a dictatorship www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Yup

They want war crimes. I do not know why the media will not say this. They say they want war crimes. Heggy got his job because he supported war crimes on Fox News. They think it is good to hunt children for sport.

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)

Helpful explanations here. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/o...

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.

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

Is it too much to ask to want the government to stop the president from doing the illegal stuff?

This is really something

the fact that this is just a straightforward retelling of yesterday's events without hyperbole

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

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...

Well look here folks an important supreme court election in Wisconsin, Susan Crawford is running against a maga let's get her some support, this race could set the tone of this court for many years to come. Wisconsin make sure you vote for Susan.

I wrote this several weeks back, but still a valid point: www.baltimoresun.com/2025/02/20/a...

So Musk is using his government position to make billions of dollars in increased value of X. But, but, but,... Trump promised that he was only interested in doing good for the country, not profiting.....

Daily Mirror published March 2022.... Nothing has changed Putin is a mass murderer

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

This is how it’s done.

Bad messaging: We need to educate our constituents so they know we don't have any power. Good messaging: We will do everything possible to protect our constituents and democracy, we hear their concerns, and we're going to tell them daily how they can help us oppose autocracy.

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.

. Trump wants control over the USPS to interfere with mail-in votes in the midterms. This is dangerous—tampering with the postal service threatens democracy. Be very clear: voter suppression isn’t strategy; it’s cheating. #FuckTrump #USPS

Millions of Americans in rural areas and underserved markets rely on USPS for regular delivery of medications, Social Security, pensions,... A private company would find many routes daily delivery unprofitable. Billionaires don't care. Will Republicans cave again? www.newsweek.com/how-mail-cou...

I really want to add with this: USPS is a lifeline for small businesses and many who need it for medication, etc. across this country. This is going to be a terrible move. Let me figure out a specific call for action, but until then: KEEP. CALLING.
