If you wanna know why Dems lose all the damned time, right here you go. This kind of bullshit right here. We’ve got an aspiring dictator tearing our country apart and these idiots are still too concerned about decorum and standards. Get these assholes out of office.

Indeed. It’s worth noting also that Bezos’s post-election behavior confirms that his claim about his refusal to allow the Post to endorse—that it was an apolitical act intended to preserve the paper’s reputation for objectivity—was precisely the brazen, ludicrous lie we thought it was then.

Spotted in Canada…

On 6 June 1944, while Americans were fighting at Omaha Beach, Canadians were fighting at Juno Beach. Our brothers, who fought and died by our side – who helped us defeat Fascism, are not our enemy. They are our true friends. Canadians are our brothers and sisters and I stand with them 100%.

Republicans have very short memories and even less honor to their word.

I don't know who this guy is but he's absolute right.

Let's vote these assholes out. youtube.com/@heavymontae...

Remember no purchases on the 28th! Also only buy necessities and save your money. Show the Republicans we are serious! Like ❤️ Repost for more followers 🔄 #BlueCrew 💙 🌊🌊

"This country has gotten bloated, fat, disgusting, and incompetently run," the 78-year-old McDonald's extreme enthusiast said.

I’m sorry but this isn’t getting enough attention. When RFK Jr. was asked about a young child who died of measles in Texas, he responded “It's not unusual. We have measles outbreaks all the time.” This is the first Measles death in the US in 10 years.

Holy shit. This is scary. Senator Chris Murphy just revealed on the Senate floor that Republicans now have the votes to cut $2 trillion in services for seniors on Medicare and kids on Medicaid. Tomorrow is the House’s vote. $2 TRILLION IN CUTS. The worst part 👇

Wow! What a great cover!

Amen to that.

This hits hard.

Said every tyrant and dictator in human history to justify his actions.

"There is no other alternative."

And who determines what the executive’s legitimate power is, JD? The executive?! Come on. Let me put it in terms you’d get. It’s like football. The judges are the refs, and they say whether you’re in or out of bounds. And Musk is waaaaaay out of bounds with these takeovers of our systems.

This is Franklin Delano Roosevelt's vice president in 1944.

True.

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community. No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality. Hate has no home here.

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

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.

With the terrible tragedy over the skies of D.C., it’s time to prioritize safety. Trump must end the hiring freeze on air traffic controllers and restore the aviation safety advisory committee he dismantled on Jan 22.

Trump is an extremely dangerous man--stupid, vindictive, fixated on payback for his enemies. This country will be lucky to survive him.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence. He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials. It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Pete Buttigieg sets the record straight.

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

I missed this entirely: The FAA Administrator criticized Space X’s safety record and threatened fines. Musk demanded he resign. He did. On January 20th. www.thedailybeast.com/faa-chief-mi...

America is under attack by the President of the United States

Medicare and Medicaid aren’t the same thing - I’d think someone who wants to run our country’s health system should know that.

I feel shame and anger the way these honorable public servants have been, and ARE BEING TREATED by fascists. Makes my blood boil.
