Gov. Mills of ME stood up to a bully When POTUS tried to browbeat her over trans kids playing sports, threatening to withhold federal funds to the state, she replied "See you in court" This is not about a single issue. This is about a president who believes his will is above state and federal laws

When making our calls and writing our emails, let’s remember that CHEERS (🥳) are just as important as JEERS (😒)! Taking a stand is hard right now and Governor Mills did so to Trump’s face! He didn’t like it and immediately threatened her future in politics. Let her know we have her back!

We don't know whether Trump was recruited by Russia in 1987 and codenamed #Krasnov but it's hard to think things would have turned out the way they have if it wasn’t true.

“She didn't say that. And if she did, she didn’t mean it. And if she did mean it, you didn’t understand. And if you did, it’s not a big deal. And if it is, others have said worse.”

So here’s what happens when they actually go after Social Security & Medicare: They officially PISS OFF approximately 73+ Million Voters, their Families & Friends, and their political lives END! Are you paying attention GOP? We’re watching very, very closely, we know who you are! CONSEQUENCES!

Psychotic billionaire, Edolph Musk makes up shit on the fly, trumps style. Making false statements; purposely using fake and misleading interpretations of data, like on the Social Security databases. He say what he want, and expect to be believed at face value. And moronic MAGAS do #USDemocracy

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

It always bears repeating that private shipping companies like UPS, FedEx, and Amazon use the USPS to ship to remote rural areas because they don’t think it’s worth it to do it themselves so it is always a dumb idea to privatize public good.

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

Watch this clip, folks 👇 Does Bannon sound like he's joking about Trump becoming dictator for life? Because he isn't.

Again I am begging people in the media to note the legality of these actions in their headlines or blurbs. A post office is literally written into the constitution.

FIRE THIS LAZY FEDERAL WORKER......

MUST WATCH: Rich McCormick (R) got embarrassed at his own town hall because he wouldn’t admit the obvious—Trump is headed straight for dictatorship. He dodged the questions and got BOOED to hell. Things are heating up!

We must all band together. There are far more of us than there are of them. Never forget that, no matter how difficult this may become!!

✅ DEI Employer of the Day™ Apple 🍎 The Apple Board of Directors unanimously recommends that shareholders vote against an anti-DEI proposal at their annual meeting on Feb 25. Morningstar recommends Apple shareholders vote against the anti-DEI resolution, below ⬇️ www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

🧵"Some claim that DEI work puts identity above 'merit'—when the opposite is true. Casting a wide net for talent, ensuring fair opportunity for all to succeed, and building a culture that fosters connections" is a "congressional mandate, and good business." #DEI fortune.com/2025/02/20/t...

This is a MUST WATCH video. If we want change, everyone needs to be this fired up at town halls! Please share this with friends and family. Get loud! Get in their faces and voice your concerns. These representatives work for us. We deserve answers and we demand accountability!

Being diabetic is hard enough, but the obscene cost of Ozempic—literally the only medication that has helped lower my A1C—makes it feel impossible. Big Pharma, we’re not just customers, we’re patients fighting to survive. #Diabetes #Healthcare @novonordisk.bsky.social @senduckworth.bsky.social

To the @GOP senators and Congressmen who claim to support Ukraine, you do have some power… if you’re unwilling to exercise it then don’t pretend to care about your country more than your political career:

This was just shared with me on Twitter. I 💯 support this. #TreasonousTrump

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Their hypocrisy is literally and metaphorically painfully predictable
