Will you look at that? COSTCO didn't roll back DEI, and store traffic increased by: 5.8% on the week beginning January 27, 5.7% on the week beginning February 3, 4.6% on the week beginning February 10 Sources: Fortune and Retail Brew

This was always about cutting the federal government so the tax cuts for the very wealthy don’t expire. This was never about “efficacy.”

Ruining lives while you pretend to care about the debt then turning around and pushing to spend billions of taxpayer dollars on a literal ego trip

Democrats are fundamentally misunderstanding the moment: We're not asking them to be *legislators* right now. We need them to be *politicians.* There's nothing to be done about the legislative situation. They're right about that. But there's PLENTY to be done as politicians.

Sacramento protest turnout this week. I guess we need more drones to counter the “hundreds” media narrative. A Sacramento TV anchor actually reported the turnout as “dozens!” 🤔 credit: @krackness.bsky.social

Not all heroes wear capes 🤣🔥

OPMs email servers trying to hold back all the external troll emails they’re getting in response to DOGE.

UPDATE: Meta is continuing to censor anti-Musk ads. It has removed a Facebook ad calling for a boycott of Tesla, saying that it violates the company's policy on "unacceptable business practices" muskwatch.com/subscribe

If you don’t think Trump is taking over the US Mail to do away with mail-in voting, you haven’t been paying attention.

As a grandmother of a severely disabled child who we all love dearly, this makes me sick. 🤮

This👇🏼👇🏼is now the once powerful United States of America the world admired❗️ Ohh quickly has it fallen into a state of anarchy under a corrupt, deranged, populist President and his Government of freakish clowns❗️😢 The UK and Europe had better head the lesson.. #USAHasFallen

Good-bye mail-in votes and hello Musk attacks on voting machines at the polls

"The New York Times has been caught, once again, passing off Republican operatives as “regular” Republican voters in an article intended to show how effectively Trump is maintaining his support." presswatchers.org/2020/10/how-... by @froomkin.bsky.social

We warned you. We shouted from the rooftops.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

But #trump said #Ukraine started the #war … On itself???🫠 Can’t make this stuff up! #America open your eyes already! #internationalwar

Here we go. The Fourth Reich 🦋💙🦋

Couldn't have happened to a bigger p.o.s. unless of course we're lucky enough to see it happen to Donald Trump who is the biggest p.o.s and deserves something much worse than being "charged with a coup."

Measles spreading in Texas, outbreak rises to 48 cases. All cases are among people, mostly children, who weren’t vaccinated or had unknown vaccination status. More than a dozen people have been hospitalized.

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

“Congress…where is the outrage for these times?…” #sacramentoprotest #indivisiblesac #usprotests #uscongress #50501protests

Because you are sucking up to the owner of your newspaper?
