That’s fine will just start showing up at their offices locally and in DC until they start answering questions about how they can sit back and allow this continued fascist brigade plunder our democracy.

All of the Republicans who for years railed about "unelected bureaucrats" destroying the government are awfully quiet as an unelected bureaucrat destroys the government.

Making car payment interest payments tax deductible is a genuinely insane policy proposal.

None of this is normal

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Trump’s “crypto strategic reserve” may be nothing but a blatant insider trading scam to make his billionaire crypto czar richer — funded by taxpayer money.

If you think Putin's agenda sounds similar to Trump's, there's a reason for that. Both are trying to distract from the economic looting by their respective oligarchies. Watch this video I put out just a few years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-nO8cBD79k

Our already horrible lack of educational progress among the US student population will only get worse among other nations with this short sighted and awful order. Hopefully there will be a giant lawsuit filed to combat this idiotic decision.

Bingo. This was a setup to give them an excuse. Couldn’t have been more transparent if they’d handed out a script beforehand.

Two market meltdowns. One common denominator.

If you ever worked for a federal agency that DOGE has on the chopping block, especially the lesser known ones, please tell us about the work they do on behalf of the American people. We need to understand what is being lost.

Tens of thousands of people are dead, multiple cities and towns have been almost completely destroyed, and millions of people are displaced. And JD Vance laughs and smiles with Hannity about the invasion like it’s a game.

Trump wasn’t impeached or punished for the first time he broke the law withholding aid from Ukraine. He’s learned that he can get away with anything

3 days ago, he publicly bullied Zelensky. Earlier today, he stopped all U.S. cyber operations against Russia. And just now, he paused all military aid to Ukraine. Quit beating around the bush. Trump stands AGAINST the free world. He’s on Putin’s side. He’s doing Putin’s work. Shameful. Traitorous.

“A senior career official at USAID was placed on leave Sunday after he disseminated a detailed memo to staff describing the U.S. government’s “failure” to provide lifesaving assistance around the world because of actions by Trump political appointees.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

Trump and his henchmen did not make "a deal" with President Volodymyr Zelensky and Ukraine over rare earth minerals. They engaged in extortion, part of their protection racket-style strategy to shake down an ally in the midst of a deadly conflict.

Ignore the rule of law. Manipulate the language. Intimidate the press. Rid the government of all possible opposition. Stock it with incompetent supplicants. Make the military your personal guard. Repress cultural expression. Embrace white supremacy and fellow dictators. It happened here.

Bezos has it exactly wrong. If the Post editorial page is to laser focus on one theme it should be the daily destruction of democracy (not some lame Randian notion of "free markets.")

One pernicious step after another, Bezos encroached on the Post editorial policy. Today he seized it fully. The old Washington Post is gone. I'll never write for it again as long as he's the owner.

Make a huge mistake. Then make a false claim about how you fixed it. They did it for PEPFAR. Now Ebola. I follow this particular topic VERY closely, so here's what really happened and why this isn't true AT ALL...🧵

If you’re into seeing Elon & DOGE get called out for their lies about *savings* — this account is doing a very nice job of it: x.com/electricfutu...

This is so good. Elon Musk is throwing a bunch of money into the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, and his PAC launched an attack ad... against an person unrelated to the race with the same name as one of the candidates. wisconsinexaminer.com/briefs/musk-...

“It’s no longer just Putin’s Russia that threatens the foundations of Western liberal democracy but Trump’s Washington.”

How stupid and arbitrary are Trump's mass firings at federal agencies? A State Dept employee tells me some colleagues are racing to change their job descriptions so phrases like "transnational crime" don't get caught up in DOGE AI bots scanning for words like "trans" to fire people because "DEI."

If Joe Biden said this, the entire Republican Party would be yelling about Munich/1938/appeasement, & it would prompt nonstop front page headlines about whether he was mentally unfit to be president.

I’m not saying it would make any difference but I wish The Norms wouldn’t prohibit more people from just saying “what the fuck are you talking about”

Marco Rubio on Fidel Castro: “One of the most brutal dictators the western hemisphere has ever known... You don’t forgive someone who thinks they never did anything wrong.” Marco Rubio on "peace" talks with Putin: "...incredible opportunities that exist to partner with the Russians." #USDemocracy

Elon Musk, the world's richest man, is securing real beneifits as he helps Trump disrupt the federal government. Just how? The NYT takes a deep look today at these benefits: federal investigations targeting Musk companies that have been disrupted or now may die. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/u...

It's a cult

Day one of Obama's term, the GOP was facing the same odds and declared unanimously and unambiguously that they would not help him a lick and anyone who didn't like it could eat shit. It largely worked, and they left the literal playbook for the Dems - who have instantly surrendered.

Not a single Republican senator stood against Gabbard -- ignoring the law requiring the director of national intelligence to have deep national-security experience. She has none. She represents the disastrous rise of misplaced power, and a danger to the United States. www.axios.com/2025/02/10/t...

USAID isn’t just foreign aid—it’s a powerful tool for America’s security, influence, and values. Cutting it weakens us while empowering our adversaries. I’ve seen its impact firsthand. Watch my video and share with those who care about America’s future. 🇺🇸👇 adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/weekend-mo...

There's now a FOURTH plane crash on Sean Duffy's watch. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

One reason the press is being very cautious about talking about a constitutional crisis is that the top Democrats in the country are talking about high grocery prices. Try to imagine it from their perspective: how do they report on a "crisis" that even the opposition doesn't seem to acknowledge?
