The US government is now nonstop performative idiocracy.

Ontario voters, wake up, get off your butts and vote in this important Provincial election. We have four days left to take a stand. Voter apathy will kill all that us beautiful for our province. VOTE VOTEZ VOTE VOTEZ

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

He’s threatening to fire federal employees who don’t respond to his email by tomorrow. He has already fired employees with impeccable performance reviews. Promotions will be based on responses to his email rather than detailed performance evaluations by their direct supervisor.

If I wanted to crash the economy, I'd indiscriminately raise tariffs on imports, deport cheap labor, slash the federal workforce, slash public spending, and convince our allies that America is an untrustworthy trading partner.

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

The nepo baby who only *succeeded* because his father gave him $400,000,00o+ to conpensnate for his failed businesses.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline. www.aphis.usda.gov/livestock-po...

Folks are asking, “what should I do in this moment?” One of the most passionate, progressive voices in Congress for 30 years, Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden answers that question. Here’s our conversation, inside a replica of the Senate chamber at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute: youtu.be/n_nQ-Moa9fI?...

🚨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.

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, ProPublica’s analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

I saw, in a legal document, someone argue that the existence of trans people is against their religion because God made Adam and Eve male and female, and all monotheists agree on that. Wait until they hear about the Talmud’s claim that Adam was initially a two-headed bigender being.

Less than 24 hours after Trump said he would leave some social safety net programs like Medicaid intact, the inveterate liar has reneged. Trump is now backing the House GOP’s strategy calling for finding $880 billion in savings from the committee with jurisdiction…

Have any of Trump's voters stopped to consider why everything he is doing helps billionaires and not his voters?

COLLINS: You wrote in fall 2023 that "Putin is to blame like Al-Qaeda was to blame for 9/11." Do you still feel that way or do you share the president's assessment as he says Ukraine is to blame? WALTZ: Well it shouldn't surprise you that I share the president's assessment on all kinds of issues

Backatcha!

I stand with National Parks Service staff like Kate, a Minnesotan who was fired by Trump and Musk from her job as Park Ranger at Voyageurs National Park.

#SocialSecurity is ALREADY under attack. My friend's mother lives in Mexico and received this letter. I've asked her for a copy but haven't gotten it yet. finance.yahoo.com/news/benefit...

On Tuesday, Senate Democrats will investigate the Trump-Musk attack on American consumers. I'm inviting Elon Musk. He owes the American people answers on why he’s trying to shut down the financial cop on the beat that prevents big corporations from cheating Americans.

This is the most cowardly administration in history.

If you need a COVID vaccine or booster, and you don’t have insurance, there are places you can go to obtain them for free. If you have insurance, your provider and other places offer them. If you need assistance finding one, I’ll be happy to help you. www.redcross.org/get-help/how...

Well, isn’t this interesting! There is no love lost between #SkeevyStevieBannon and #ElmoMuskRat. #NaziElmo and his fellow broligarchs have every intention of putting chokehold dog collars on everyone else, from far-right #MAGAtMorons to far-left democratic socialists. #TheMurderOfTheUSA

"Now is the moment to recognize the scale of the seismic change unfolding, and to find new ways to live in the world that a very different kind of America is beginning to create." Not for the first time, I emphatically agree with @anneapplebaum.bsky.social. www.theatlantic.com/internationa...
