General Brown is a brilliant, amazing leader. I worked at the Air Staff for three years and it was known that he read everything the staff wrote for him. He believes if an analyst took the time to write it, it’s his responsibility to read it. Very few generals do this.

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

Why is the entire Democratic Party like Sen. Patty Murray’s response, which tries to provide a calm documented description of what’s happening. Get fucking fired up people and make voters FEEL how this affects them and what they should do about it. God the Dems are lifeless!!!

The ICE Border garbage #LindsayGraham is spewing post traitor Patel vote makes me wanna beg Anonymous to hack find those compromised photos on him asap. Y’all are the global threat, Putin Republicans.

Congrats on opening your meemaw up to fraud and abuse, Trumpers. Bet that goes well…

Make America Grift Again

FFS! 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 are firing National Park Service EMTs There will be no one to attend to you if you get attacked by wildlife, fall while climbing/hiking, have a skiing incident, are drowning, break a leg/arm/your neck, etc Alex Wilds is one such federal employee. Read what he's saying

If you live in New York State and think Gov. Kathy Hochul should remove the corrupt mayor of NYC, give her a call or send her a letter.

@lisamurkowski.bsky.social You SOLD YOUR SOUL. We will remember.

President Musk and Kennedy Center chairman Trump are stealing from us.

The U.S. Army and U.S. Navy has removed all web pages highlighting women’s military service. Army and navy veterans Sound off. Now this photo is my mother, who is a navy veteran 22 years in us Navy #WomeninTheMilitary🇺🇸💪 #Demcast #Proudblue #StandWithwithWomenIntheMilitary #Resistancemilitary

Let the young people in your life know that Costco has generic planb for $5.99. You don’t need a membership to go to the pharmacy there.

This is my #NY-21 hometown Democratic candidate for the seat vacated by Stefanik. My WWII Navy Commander, former Mayor of Ogdensburg grandfather would proud to see #BlakeGendebien protect our citizens rather than wreck & abandon them as Stefanik and R’s have. Plz donate!

Pennsylvania, what the fuck is wrong with your boy? He's Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema rolled into one, with an extra sprinkle of dumbfuckery.

So we’re doing the Iraq war again?

Pam Bondi, Trump's US attorney general pick, is a former lobbyist for the GEO Group, a private prison corporation with massive US government contracts. Geo Group has a history of human rights abuses and deadly conditions at prisons & immigration detention facilities (concentration camps). #OpCanary

Remember their names for the History books when future generations want to know why diseases that were eradicated in the 20th century made a comeback in the 21st century…

TOMORROW: We’re rallying at the Treasury building with @moveon.org to stop Elon Musk’s hostile takeover and tell this unelected billionaire to get his hands off our money. We hope you can join us if you’re in the D.C. area.

🚨Trump’s first major tariff hike has officially gone into effect—a 10% tax increase on all imports from China, including the suspension of the “de minimis” exemption for small packages (like from Temu/Shein) is effective as of 12:01 am. That hits roughly $430B in US imports

I wrote about Musk and this bureaucratic coup as plainly as I could. There's reporting in here & the particulars are overwhelming but what's happening is so clear: He's not trying to run the federal govt like a software company He's trying to turn it into a political weapon. (gift link)

This evening, every Democrat on the Senate Agriculture Committee backed the nomination of MAGA wingnut climate denier Brooke Rollins for Secretary of Agriculture, who admitted to a lack of basic knowledge of the department's workings. Every. Single. One. Led by @amyklobuchar.com. #Assistance

#ElonMusk is a domestic terrorist. I want to know from our elected officials why hasn't someone ordered his arrest & physically removed him from the government of the United States of America? #HakeemJeffries #ChuckSchumer #HouseDemocrats #SenateDemocrats #JointChiefsofStaff #CapitalPolice 🇺🇸

#Maryland pay attention! Thank you Sen. Van Hollen for standing up against the unqualifieds. Sen. Alsobrooks, why u confirming Duffy for Transportation who just threatened to withhold Fed Highway Funds from states/local police who don’t act as immigration officers. 🤯? Plz NO on the rest!!

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more. I'm trying to save them. You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

Watching these red states attack federal funding—apparently not realizing that most of their states are broke and would completely collapse without it—will always be hilarious to me. “Give it all back to the states!” Sit down, Cletus. Your state can’t buy sandwiches for kids.

Air Force Flight Surgeon at pilot training base told me in December they are seeing more and more prior healthy pilot trainees with debilitating illness. Massively understaffed docs, antiquated med system and with no real treatment options for long Covid/other immune affects on pilots. Reject RFK Jr

For federal employees (or anyone) who wants to speak to a reporter about what's unfolding about their agencies, the Associated Press investigative team can be reached here: [email protected] or www.ap.org/tips/ I am byrontau.01 on Signal.

A short piece I wrote for the ⁦‪The Bulwark‬⁩ describing the C17…and why it isn’t a good choice for deporting immigrants. www.thebulwark.com/p/military-j...

Do you wonder why you haven’t heard much about this massive TB outbreak recently? Cuz the CDC can’t hold any press conferences or issue public statements of any kind. abcnews.go.com/Health/kansa...

Your reminder that RFK Jr. is a vastly unqualified hack who will weaken our military and endanger the lives of our residents.

RFK Jr. says he will instruct the NIH and FDA to review the safety of the abortion drug mifepristone.

Word. American philosopher, activist, writer Edward Abbey.

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin in his farewell address: "You know, I was taught at West Point to pray that I would 'choose the harder right instead of the easier wrong.' And I have tried every day as Secretary to live up to that teaching." It's a prayer for America right now.

Tens of thousands of people are listening to the free audio version of Volume I of Jack Smith's final report on Trump's January 6th crimes. I love that so many people are interested in facts/truth!
