This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

He nails it.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

We refuse to let the oligarchs win and control us, and I feel a sea change (link to full video in reply)

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Since I’ve been getting this a lot - if you feel like supporting me by buying a jersey or something, I would rather you make a donation to Trans Lifeline or The Trevor Project www.thetrevorproject.org

If someone wanted to destroy the United States from within, would they do anything differently than what Trump is doing right now?

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

The media needs to stop using the phrase "Trump outlawed diversity programs" and just say it like it is: Trump legalized discrimination against women and POC.

the only thing Canadians like more than beating Russia in hockey is beating the US in hockey. the general sentiment this morning is that last night we got to do both.

WOOHOO! A new bat coronavirus that has the capacity to spread to humans, similar to the one that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, has been discovered….I’m sure everything will be perfectly fine 😬 www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

I hope everyone realizes Putin is conquering the US right now.

Canada-Russia hockey final tonight, just like old times.

This.

Once again, everything 47 touches, turns to shit!! Go Canada!!!!

Last night I attended the Save Our Services rally in New York City. Listen to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) fighting for people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” @aoc.bsky.social

"North Carolina senator Thom Tillis told people that the FBI warned him about 'credible death threats' when he was considering voting against Pete Hegseth’s nomination for defense secretary... "Tillis ultimately provided the crucial 50th vote to confirm." www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

When is every federal employee just walking off the job? Fuck this shit. Bring this country to a halt. Like wtf are we even doing? My grandfather fought in WW2 against the nazis. No way in fucking hell I’m just continuing on like shit is normal under this new nazi regime.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees with General Milley that Americans do not owe our allegiance to a King, Queen, or a wannabe dictator. We owe our allegiance to the Constitution. Fuck the nonsense trump says about being a king.

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

He should be our messenger.

The first Supreme Court showdown of President Donald Trump’s second term is upon us. @imillhiser.bsky.social explains what's at stake: voxdotcom.visitlink.me/ix_JVd

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

Alaska has the fourth-highest number of federal workers per capita—fish & game, forestry, and more—their jobs are being cut under the excuse of “poor performance.” Lisa Murkowski knows that’s a lie—so why won’t she just say, it’s a lie. Collins, Burchett, and the rest are just giving lip service.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

REPOST if you stand with AOC!

Candlelight vigil for the state of US democracy, Wednesday February 19, 6 to 8 PM, Portland, City Hall #3E #USProtests

Are you OK tearing up the constitution and allowing Trump to become the King of the USA? Because that is what’s happening.

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?

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

A top Social Security Administration official resigned after clashing with Musk staffers over access to sensitive personal records. They sought entry into an internal system containing Americans’ private data. Thank you, Michelle, for resisting—and for your 30 years of service.

Trump’s appeasement of Putin is a disgraceful surrender to Russia, an outright betrayal of Ukraine, and a stark warning to the world that America under Trump is no longer the defender of democracy but a willing collaborator with a terrorist state. My latest...

I'm watching Canadian officials hold a presser on the Toronto plane crash and remarkably they're not blaming DEI or recklessly speculating about causes. They could never cut it down here in Trumplandia.
