If you aren't getting a refund, or you can afford a delayed refund, file your taxes on paper, via US Mail this year. Mail them at the last possible moment. If the percentage of people who file electronically goes way down, and Elon has fired half the IRS, they are screwed.

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

That was the most shameful performance by any American president in a century. I want to fucking throw up.

If I wanted to weaken the United States and make us less capable of combating 21st Century threats, I’d be doing exactly what the Trump White House and DOGE are doing.

It was never about limited government, it was about one party government. Very CCP of them.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use. Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

Before folks start comparing this to European autocracies, pause and ask why so many folks - Black and white - didn’t know about the Tulsa Race Massacre. Or the Wilmington Coup. Or the Colfax Massacre. Or the Elaine, Arkansas massacre. Erasure has been a key tactic of white supremacy. Right here.

Don’t worry the Christians will forcefully take over Gaza and deport all the Palestinians and then we’ll all have world peace. 🙄

if the president can say “i don’t like the department of energy,” and within a week it’s closed, then the constitution means nothing, and the president’s entire claim to power is the loyalty of the military. either he is constrained by the constitution or he’s a dictator, there isn’t a middle ground

What this long and detailed NYT piece calmly calls an “extraordinary flexing of power by a private individual” is in fact a blatantly unconstitutional usurpation of Congress’s Article I powers and delegation of the President’s Article II duties. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/03/u...

A warning to the Trump and Elon CULT members: No matter how dissatisfied you are with government, dismantling it completely leads to chaos and mayhem. When societies fall apart they get ruled by thugs and gangs. This won’t make your life better. It will put you and your family in grave danger.

This right here. This is what the President of the United States SHOULD say right now. Not comment on the cause of the crash. Not assign blame for the crash. Not engage in conspiracies. This right here is what a leader, what a good person says. Thank you Barack Obama.👇

Absolutely!

Obama was right. The floodgates opened to special interest groups, silencing the people. It's time to choose: do we want a government of the people, by the people, and for the people? Or do we want an oligarchy where billionaires call the shots? Your vote matters. Use it. #StopTheOligarchy

IMO he’s trying his best to keep President Carter out of the news cycle over the next few days. He is such a little, little man.

Sad truth

The sad reality is, the overwhelming majority of Americans don't know there's a voter for the Speaker going on, don't care & won't be able to name him after the vote. This is what happens in a country where civics education is no longer universal. Its absence lets darkness settle in over democracy.
