As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

Since Trump has claimed Elon doesn’t run DOGE, we wanted to make sure you know who is running our government. This list has been updated with 15 names.

“He visited Dachau and offered a few canned remarks about how inspired he was by the stories of the ‘unspeakable evil’ he witnessed… Then, when his trip to Europe concludes next week, he’ll return to the United States to continue overseeing the construction of internment camps to house migrants.”

As it has been for 15 months, the narrative about who is obstructing a Gaza ceasefire is upside down. Since the ceasefire officially went into effect Jan. 19, Israel has repeatedly violated it by shooting & killing Palestinians and continuing to withhold aid, tents, mobile homes.

He's not a "kid." He's an adult, with an important govt job. The posts weren't "stupid." They were hatefully racist. His life isn't "ruined." He lost a job. Holding a govt employee accountable is not a "reward" for a journalist. The reporter doesn't get a cookie.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

As Elon Musk leads a corporate coup to steal money & data from everyday people to line his own pockets...75% of freshmen Democrats spent their mornings with the Israel lobby. Dems only priority should be fighting back against Trump—including his Gaza takeover—not funding the Israeli military.

We are in the midst of an administrative coup the like of which we have never seen - or even imagined - in our lifetimes. Every day brings new abuses, new scandals, which can’t just be undone or fixed. We are in a very dark place as a country and as a constitutional republic right now.

Trump appointed MAGA attorney Ed Martin as DC prosecutor. Martin represented some Jan 6 insurrectionists as defense attorney. Instead of recusing, he dismissed his client's case. www.msnbc.com/deadline-whi...

We’ve been on the phone with multiple agencies/orgs. They’ve been completely cut off from federal money. We’re talking housing, homeless services, public safety, etc. I’m calling a press conference today to explain how this could have drastic local impacts to our constituents.

Medicaid payments nationwide weren’t working yesterday. RFK Jr. is proving at this hearing that he doesn’t even understand the basics of the program. He’s a danger to American’s health.

This is what we mean when we talk about corporate greed: Starbucks gave its CEO $96 million for just 4 months of work. Meanwhile, Starbucks is refusing to offer a raise of more than 50 cents an hour to 12,000 union workers. That's unacceptable. Starbucks must end their greed.

While 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, Musk, Bezos and Zuckerberg, combined, own more wealth than the bottom half of America. Apparently, that’s not enough. Republicans want to give them a massive tax break by slashing Medicaid. Together, we will stop them.

Israel is increasing its propaganda funding by $150 million dollars for 2025. People are already starting to see through Israel's lies and manipulation. We must continue to expose the propaganda for what it is.
