A great move would be for a judge to reply, “This week I issued a ruling to block your unconstitutional actions.” (Yes, I know that wouldn’t happen.)

Trump’s Pentagon purge has included the top military lawyers. Nobody should be surprised. Dictators politicize the military. Trump wants those with the biggest guns loyal to him, not the Constitution He says he’s demilitarizing it. I call BS. Orwellian to the core. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

I’m old, lived through the chaos of the sixties, assassinations, marches, protests, bombings, then Vietnam.. but no matter how upset people were in those days, or how much we disagreed about policy and politics,

Where are the Democrats but also Where are the churches Where are the celebrities Where are the NGOs Where are the Universities Where are professional groups like AMA Where are the athletes Where are the unions What people/groups do and don’t do for next month determines our collective future

From the Department of Education, Medicaid, the CDC, and more - Trump and Elon Musk are gutting the agencies and programs that protect Americans every single day. They are trying to cut off the lifelines that our communities rely on.

Two seats up for grabs in the house of representatives for Florida and one in New York voting date is April 1 with early registration in March. Check out the poster below. FLIP the seats.

Destroying the CDC team researching Lyme disease. Disbanding the HHS Long COVID council. Cutting Medicaid. How is any of this cost-saving? This is not about efficiency. It’s about funding tax breaks for billionaires while costing Americans their health. www.9news.com/article/news...

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.

If you don’t think Trump is taking over the US Mail to do away with mail-in voting, you haven’t been paying attention.

We r an unserious country.

Elon’s evil munchkins sent this ridiculous email out to all 2 million or so Federal employees demanding they reply by midnight Monday. If you want to let them know what you did last week I’m bet they’d love to hear from you at [email protected]! I can’t wait to tell them about my norovirus symptoms!

The parentage of New York newspapers from The Times, July 15, 1995, announcing the death of NY Newsday:

Will you stand up? All of us can do something. Found an organization near me me that is organized. Here are a couple events on their calendar where you can engage nationwide. 2/28/2025 (Friday) – 12:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. – Everywhere, USA Total Economic Blackout/General Strike; ...

How we got here? LOOKING AWAY

Really? We could have told you that. 😃. Even if you trust DOGE numbers, and there are several reports now proving them wrong, they do not add up to more than a few percent of the deficit We need a LOT more fact checking, the media is getting circles run around them

And here it is, my Joker moment. I am insane now.

NEW: Using the unitary executive theory, the DOJ said barriers preventing Trump from firing administrative law judges were unconstitutional. These judges can currently only be removed by a board protecting federal employees from unfair practices.

TRUMP: The NCAA has complied immediately. That's good. But I understand Maine -- is the governor of Maine here? JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here TRUMP: Are you not gonna comply? JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all

How it started. How it’s going

My sister is in stage 6 of 7 in Alzheimer’s. Trump and musk can go fuck themself

Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason." www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/p...

Any Republicans want to grow a spine and stand up to this with us? Many of you represent rural areas who will suffer the most from this!

Republicans time and time again show they don't believe that majority-Black cities deserve to govern themselves. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Does he even know what the House GOP Budget Committee did to Medicaid last week?

it appears Delaware Dems and the (also Dem) governor are attempting to rip up Delaware corporate law so they can give 55 billion dollars to Elon Musk, with a bill written by Elon's own lawyers www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/02/...

A brand new Gallup poll notes a loss of approval rating down to 45% and disapproval at 51%. Another Reuters poll shows his approval over handling the economy at 39%, his lowest ever. Per @neeratanden.bsky.social: he's not invisible — he’s got a glass jaw if we bother to throw a punch.

Gallup just registered Trump's worst economic approval rating on record, at -12 (42% approve/54% disapprove). Throughout Trump's first term it was a relative strength for him, and previously his lowest economic rating with Gallup was -8 in June 2017.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

This is what they have done.
