Brilliant @anntelnaes.bsky.social the final word on McConnell

An excellent piece by Beschloss. Read thru his IL Gov. Prtizker quote!

Front page of today's New York Post.

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

The IRS has initiated layoffs of about 6,700 employees, primarily targeting probationary staff and those in compliance roles. These are the people who "go after tax evasion." If you wanted an efficient government, wouldn't you wait until tax season is over or was the Trump champagne already cold?

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

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

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

instead of annexing a 51st state by force, statehood for DC and a binding referendum for Puerto Rico need to be Day 1 agenda items if and when Democrats ever win back a trifecta

An important point to keep in mind.

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

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.

We know we have a shortsge of air traffic controllers, we know a shortsge of controllers hurts safety, so why is this being done? It could kill people #safetyfirst apnews.com/article/doge... Trump begins firings of FAA air traffic control staff just weeks after fatal DC plane crash

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

National Nuclear Security Administration officials are attempting to notify some employees who had been let go that they are now due to be reinstated — but they're struggling to find them because they don't have their new contact information. nbcnews.to/4104StF

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

It is indicative of the revolting nature of Trump Regime and the GOP that they fear a 22 year old outspoken women and embrace Putin. They are morally and intellectually bankrupt, they must be electorally defeated #gretaisright #vanceiswrong

Pretty telling that the comparison here is “someone scolding you via a video you saw on Facebook that you found annoying” and “complete disregard for legal protections and long standing peaceful cooperation between nations”. It’s actually pretty accurate to how conservatives view the world

Love means all. A world-wide community. Happy #Valentinesday friends!

Heartbreaking news… Tonight, many of our friends were let go, and tomorrow, even more will follow. Word is that all probationary employees at NPS will be let go. 😭

Happy Thursday friends 👋 If you want to meet more friends drop a 💙 We must continue to resist this administration and unite with other true blue resisters. Repost #BlueStormBoosts

GOP: We shouldn't spend money on foreign aid when we have poor people in America Also GOP: we shouldn't spend money to help poor people in America

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

We know what’s going on here.
