This is how it’s done.

They may want Berlin 1933 But we can make it Paris 1789

72 million Americans are on the chopping block to lose their healthcare if Republicans pass the budget that came out of the House. AOC (D-NY) voices her concerns daily telling her colleagues on the other side of the aisle that people are yelling Don’t Cut My Medicare. AOC has no fucks left to give.

EVERY FUCKING WORD OF THIS! We have to take the gloves off! So listen up @housedemocrats.bsky.social and @democrats.org We are ready to fight! And if you fight, know that we will stand beside you every step of the way!

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

BREAKING: The USDA has confirmed five additional dairy herds in California have tested positive for the virus, raising the total to 732. Currently, 74% of the state's dairy herds are infected with H5N1.

I'm just saying...

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.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

swear to god if this were a movie script the studio would send notes back saying "tone it down, no one's gonna buy this"

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

And who they didn't like

Secretary Turner wants to cancel HUD programs that serve seniors and people with disabilities. Harming seniors and vulnerable Americans does not make our government more efficient. Senator Warren, Senator Smith, and I are holding this Administration accountable.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

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

I Stand With Ukraine 🇺🇦

Um...Is he okay?

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

The resistance will bring down Musk and Trump. Congress, wake up before your power is gone. The GOP begging Trump to release money to their states is pathetic—stand up to this tyranny. Congress controls the purse strings.

Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, just 11 years old, “took her own life in Texas after she was tormented by classmates who threatened to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) authorities and have her family deported from the US, her grieving parents have said.” www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

“The head of the Social Security Administration has resigned after she refused to by DOGE staffers access to sensitive information. Your information.”

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

60 MINUTES: “Utter nonsense. The most accountable aid agency in the world is USAID… DOGE fired their top 58 officials within an hour of arriving…” This was never about efficiency. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGLXa9r...

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Union Square rally.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

These absolute morons are going to destroy the United States. If you’re in favor of the US leaving NATO, you either don’t want the US to succeed, or you don’t know wtf NATO does. Worth noting that Mike Lee voted to expand NATO in 2022.

ZELENSKYY: The risk that Russia will occupy Europe is 100 percent WELKER: If the US pulls out of NATO, Russia will occupy Europe? ZELENSKYY: Yes
