Daylight waste of time has started!

I sure would like to know who has been buying the dips right before Trump announces he has changed his mind and reverses a tariff. Seems like valuable information in the markets to know when he announces a tariff and when he’s going to rescind it.

THREAD: A timeline for you of facts. I'm just sharing facts, so no need to get yelly or upset. 1. DoJ opened two investigations into Trump and the coup in January 2021 within two weeks of the attack on the Capitol 1/

The problem with people like Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk, is they lack the self-awareness and familiarity with decency to be ashamed after shockingly inappropriate or rude behavior.

Occam's Razor: always go back to Trump's 3 core beliefs, as spelled out by Tom Wright in 2016: Trump is anti-trade, anti-alliances, and pro-authoritarianism. All the theater with Macron and Starmer, all the talk of deals--he is not going to give Ukraine security anything.

The goal is to terrorize federal workers into quitting. That’s it. Constant changes. Canceling work from home then closing offices. Laying off probationary employees. It’s designed to break the government. Then privatize it for profit. It’s not efficiency. It’s collapse. Only peasants will suffer.

As usual, Donnie’s brain is playing shorthanded.

Obama knew

REMEMBER: Next Friday, February 28. NOT 1 PENNY SPENT. We can do this. I'm IN, are you? đź‘‹đź’™

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

I try to keep the language on here… PG… but in this case i can’t. You, Trump, are a traitorous piece of shit

The actor's acoustic performance featured a special shoutout to some of SNL's most beloved late cast members.

The absence of parental figures in a child’s life leaves emotional, social, and psychological scars that can be challenging to heal. 👇read👇

There’s “waste and fraud,” and then there’s “this doesn’t align with my autocrat agenda.” Some of you would be wise to start learning the difference.

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.

Correct. This is a President of the United States declaring himself a dictator. And instead of Americans understanding that we’re now under imminent threat of martial law and tyranny, we’ll get a month of think pieces about what the President of the United States meant by his UNAMBIGUOUS statement.

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

This feels true to me as well.

And also not by the President and/or his Best Buddy

USAID friends are asking this video be shared on social media at 5:30pm eastern, as E**n M**k has spent $40M on a Super Bowl ad to trash USAID, which accounts for 1% of the federal budget. Please spread the word. youtu.be/PqUESHfuO_8

New York Democrats in the state legislature are expected to approve a bill on Monday that would delay until November the special election to fill Elise Stefanik’s House seat — a move that would deny House Republicans a crucial vote in the closely divided chamber.

Bravo đź‘Ź

This Super Bowl Sunday, here's a reminder of what real courage looks like.

If Elon going Goebbels with Super Bowl ads to lie about his cyber attack on our government, he has first-frame advantage. EVERY Democrat needs to start repeating a simple message, like: Elon and his lawless lackeys are stealing from you to give billionaires and their corporations more tax cuts.

Too true!

Spread the message!

The richest guy in the world thinks Cancer research should be cut. Thinks special education should be cut. Thinks world famine aid and disease control should be cut. Thinks federal workers are grifters while Donald Trump is costing the Taxpayer’s millions golfing at Mar a Lago.

🇪🇪🚫🇷🇺 Historic moment — Estonia disconnected its power grid from Russia!

⚡️ The historic moment of Estonia leaving the Russian-fed power grid. On February 8, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia left Russia and Belarus energy system. By the end of the day today, they will have joined the European grid.

This! youtu.be/K8QLgLfqh6s?...

Of course it’s a coup. Miss the obvious, lose your republic. open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

From the wonderful Bruce MacKinnon! 🇨🇦 #cdnpoli #uspoli #tariffs

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM. We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building. Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

Is it too soon to point out the irony that Republicans campaigned on false immigration fears, yet right now, it’s an unelected immigrant who’s actually destroying our democracy from the inside?

I'm not surprised by trump's disgustingly negative attitude about disabled people. It's who he is, and who he's always been. This should have been the end.

Good morning, BlueSky fam! 🦋 Happy weekend, do something nice for yourself, be kind to each other, stay positive, and have a wonderful day 🦋💙

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

It wasn't DEI, it was DOGE.
