This one stings so good.

We're out here playing drinking games with the talking points we know Trump is going to bring up. You could have divvied these up to each democrat beforehand and picked who's going to stand up and yell over which. Everybody should have been escorted out. One. At. A. Time.

thank you. www.youtube.com/watch?v=j51H...

"The GOP sought to score political points on the backs of children already at risk of being excluded and demonized for not fitting into someone’s inflexible notion of gender and femininity," writes columnist Rochelle Olson.

Trump doesn’t give a damn about us, he only cares about billing us for his tax breaks for the richest of the rich. Screwing Minnesotans by putting us in the middle of a trade war with our *ally* is beyond insanity.

We need y'all doing this. @aoc.bsky.social

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.

It is not enough to simply exist. We must be the safe people and create the safe spaces for those who are like us to know they belong in this world. You are worthy, you matter, you are not alone. The world is better with you in it. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

...Ending the war in Ukraine to start the war in Poland. Germany. Moldova. Romania. Slovakia. Etc. This must stop by standing against unjust wars. Not with them.

Thank you senate democrats. This is what we need you doing. Take turns doing this on everything I know it's exhausting. Grind them to a halt. They were very effective at doing it to bills that helped everyday americans. Now they are trying to hurt us. @smith.senate.gov @amyklobuchar.com

Meet Trump's new best friend, Vladimir Putin. At the heart of Putin’s rule are two forces: corruption & violence. In Putin's Russia, there is no freedom of speech. Protests are violently suppressed. Dissidents are murdered. And the billionaire oligarchs become even richer.

That’s right. 🇺🇦

Comments like this, men are just as emotional as women, but no one ever held them accountable for how they respond to their emotions.

Spineless. What happened to 2014 Rubio on Ukraine.

Duolingo being too real.

Why do we care much more about this woman than the vast number of Central and South American folks being held by ICE under the same conditions? Pretty sure I know the answer.

Which is it NYT, am I inconsequential or am I a national security threat?

Wisconsin friends, this is big.

When it feels hopeless, step back and see the effect that we are having. This is not a sprint, it is a marathon. Take care of yourself, and keep moving forward.

Some of us are thinking about emigrating, too. This thought of safety has arisen in my mind.

Wouldn't it be a shame it this site got spammed?

And in so doing, gave the game away, again. He’s not looking for waste, fraud, or abuse, and he’s not even capable of identifying it. He’s looking for sensational distractions to cover his tracks as he loots our treasury and destroys decades of work establishing robust beneficial institutions.

We apologize to our Ukrainian supporters. We are embarrassed by how our president and vice president have behaved. We are fighting to redeem the soul of America. 🇺🇸

It was wonderful to see a president so devoted to his country in the Oval Office. Too bad, Trump was there also.

And this wasn’t a church service, folks. It was a public forum hosted by Common Cause. These are everyday folks who are concerned enough about our community, state and country to show up on a Saturday afternoon! They had to move to the chapel because of the huge turnout! #democracy

This woman has made shitting her signature issue

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

This is the plan, keep people from talking about us, make us illegal to simply be who we are in public. Make it so easy to step out of line that we can be done away with for any reason. If you allow this to happen, then who's next?

I see why they wanted that wall so bad. So people can't get out.

A DOGE staffer seems to be posting their DOGE work to GitHub x.com/Sollenberger...

HERO vs ZERO I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore. #SlavaUkraini🇺🇦 #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Last night, in response to my lawsuit, a federal judge blocked Trump's illegal Executive Orders targeting gender-affirming care from taking effect in MN. It is unlawful and immoral for Trump to use the federal government to target trans kids just trying to be themselves. I will not stand for it.

That Oval Office debacle today solidified two things: 1. The US is not a trusted ally 2. Zelensky is a hero

Senate Republicans once again showed us their true colors last night. They want to pay for tax breaks for their rich corporate friends by defunding your Medicaid and Medicare. Unreal.
