# of Days since Trump promised to have the Ukraine Invasion solved "in 24 hours:" 34 days; aka 816 hours.

There is no scenario where neoliberal Democrats control the Democratic Party and the party regains popularity to dominate electorally nationwide. Progressive populism. That’s the only path for the Democrats.

This hits hard.

Every billionaire should be hunted down and locked up for good. 🤷

Tesla’s law firm drafts Delaware bill that could reinstate Musk's pay package worth up to $55.8 billion. www.cnbc.com/2025/02/18/f...

DOGE claimed it saved $8 BILLION in 1 contract. In reality it was $8 Million (i.e. how much Musk's companies get in federal tax dollars EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THE YEAR) To put $8M vs $8B in perspective: •8 million seconds is 93 DAYS •8 billion seconds is 254 YEARS DOGE is 99.9999999875% INACCURATE

That’s how you write a headline, people.

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

🤔

The guy who racked up almost $8T in debt during his first term has no interest in paying it down. The federal purge underway is to allow for oligarchs to make trillions in privatization and run roughshod in a deregulated landscape. Remember that in an oligarchy, everything is run by the oligarchs.

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.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Did you know? American taxpayers would be saved $8 MILLION PER DAY if we simply canceled Elon Musk’s defense contracts.

We only know this man is in Gitmo because Noem tweeted a propaganda photo that included him and his sister saw it. He has no criminal record. He entered the US in January and immediately made an appointment with CBP to claim asylum. They sent him to a concentration camp bc of his basketball tattoo.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?

-The GOP only accepts the election results when they win. -The GOP only accepts court rulings if in their favor. -The GOP only protects speech they agree with. -The GOP is a cancer to our democratic Republic.

Kanye West has gone full Nazi. Full full Nazi. But I don't see any of the top House Democrats who obsessed over alleged antisemitic student protesters on campus - Torres, Gottheimer, Moskowitz, Goldman, Fetterman, etc - calling out Trump and the GOP for their one-time alliance with Kanye. WHY?

There is a simple solution to the CBS/Trump lawsuit. The Harris campaign should sue Fox and insist Fox release the unedited versions of all their many edited interviews with Trump.

On tonight's episode of 'America Unhinged', Wajahat and Francesca addressed the growing number of lawsuits against the White House; the racist DOGE employee; 'flooding the zone'; and more. With special guest David Dayen. Watch/share/subscribe:

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.

Around 35% of SpaceX’s revenue comes directly from the federal govt. Less than 1% of NPR’s budget comes from the federal govt.

I wonder why Musk is focused on the federal civilian workforce (4% of the budget) and not federal contractors, which account for 3x more annual spending and are more prone to waste, fraud, and abuse?

To America’s 2.3 million federal employees: Don’t accept a buyout. Neither Musk nor even Trump has the legal authority to make such an offer. And even if they did, would you trust them to follow through on it? Sincerely, Robert Reich Former U.S.Secretary of Labor

I hate to break to Trump but Two-Spirit (trans) people have existed here in North America for thousands of years. They predate the arrival of white people and their “Christianity.” Trans people will be here long after Trump is dead and gone.

🚨NEWS: Documents show USAID’s inspector general was investigating a public-private partnership with Elon Musk’s company just before Musk shut the agency down. USAID web pages mentioning Musk’s company have suddenly vanished from the agency’s website.

Have they decided yet on what room in the Whitehouse they’re going to use for their Klan meetings?

Why hasn’t DOGE gone after the Pentagon yet? They have failed SEVEN straight audits.

A total of zero votes were cast for the guy currently running America.

Knowing the names of the an unelected oligarch’s underlings who are destroying the government from within is a crime now, apparently.

Why does the world’s richest man, a man no one voted for, have access to my Social Security number?

A group of uncleared, unvetted, civilians have gained access to all of my federal records including military personnel, retirement and disability. They are reportedly feeding them into AI. I want them arrested and charged with federal crimes. Right fucking now! How is this even a discussion?

From Kyle Kulinski: The richest robber baron in the world illegally seized the treasury. WHY IS THIS NOT A BIGGER STORY! If it happened in a US enemy state we would call it a coup. @kylekulinski.bsky.social

These are the dems that voted to confirm the guy that just handed the Treasury to Musk: Blunt Rochester Booker Cantwell Coons Fetterman Gallego Gillibrand Hassan Hickenlooper Kaine Kelly King (Independent) Peters Shaheen Slotkin Warner

After American airspace was closed on 9/11, over 230 flights with 30,000 passengers and crew were diverted to Canadian airports. Transport Canada received thousands of calls from members of the public offering to help the stranded passengers. Thinking about that today, for no particular reason.
