Exclusive: Russia is asking companies to propose which sanctions Moscow should seek to have lifted ahead of talks with Washington, two Russian business people told Reuters reut.rs/3XN5UZ0

I can think of two for sure…

TRUMP LOSES AGAIN. apnews.com/article/gree...

No reason to actually read this - the headline is enough. If I were Canada, I would seriously consider making good on the threat to shut off power to northern states. Sad for Americans in those states, but gotta play hardball with this psychopathic narcissist. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Tonight the House passed a state budget that funds the core functions of government — and thanks to our efforts, it does not include the anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion proviso!

Trump’s trade policy is all bluster and no logic. Cheap manufacturing isn’t coming back, and Americans aren’t giving up cheap prices. The math ain’t mathing. How’s your 401K looking?

‘I feel utter anger’: From Canada to Europe, a movement to boycott US goods is spreading

This is the state of the media today: If you state the simple, obvious truth—that the president of the United States is mentally unstable and engages in mentally unstable behavior injurious to the nation and the world—you have to fear for your job. Pathetic.

DOGE cuts are endangering lives in countless ways, and now U.S. veterans are being targeted. Trump imposed a hiring freeze at the V.A. which resulted in the abrupt halting of clinical trials for a new drug to treat veterans with advanced cancer. The federal hiring freeze is now…

Musk added another $2 million—he's now up to $10.2 million in spending to put his bought-and-paid-for MAGA candidate, Brad Schimel, into the decisive seat on Wisconsin's Supreme Court. There's a reason his names aren't on the ads. Voters *loathe* Musk. Help us get the word out: peoplevmusk.org

the rich get richer, the poor get nothing, not even a government. there is no excuse for this behavior. it's not just the economy, these two are out to bankrupt morality. www.mediaite.com/tv/elon-musk...

A top economics reporter goes off script on national TV: “I am going to say this at risk of my job, but what President Trump is doing is insane.”

"X" or what we used to call Twitter is nothing more than a right wing and #MAGA disinformation tool designed to influence American and world politics. Your participation in it makes you complicit with #FOTUS and #Musk and can be dangerous to your mental health.

@juddlegum.bsky.social's MuskWatch rolls out the DOGE tracker, showing that $96B of DOGE's claimed savings are bullshit. doge.muskwatch.com

In Ruth Marcus' new column for The New Yorker in which she unveils the Washington Post column that was rejected and led to her resignation, she points out that the paper's media critic Erik Wemple also had a piece disagreeing with Bezos' new opinion mandate nixed. www.newyorker.com/news/essay/w...

Sen. Alsobrooks with a word of encouragement last night at the Howard County Town Hall. She said the oppressor wants us without hope, demoralized and isolated but we need to keep fighting.

How much longer til America is great?

During his first term Trump asked if the military could “beat the f*ck out” of protesters “Crack their skulls” Or “shoot them in the leg” He was told it’s unconstitutional But now-buoyed with a Supreme Court decision which gives him broad immunity He’s looking for a new way to get his wish

1. The DOGE website is garbage. The claimed savings has no relationship to the data provided. And the data that is provided grossly inflates the savings from each canceled contract. So we just launched our own site — the Musk Watch DOGE Tracker — that breaks everything down.

We are fierce defenders of workers, democracy, healthcare, equality, a functioning government, our international alliances, and our climate. We lift up marginalized groups. We stand up to bullies. We are for the people, not for the oligarchs. It’s just that simple. www.meidasplus.com/p/fox-news-i...

I'd like to just remind people that according to The Guardian, there are 696 anti-trans bills currently under consideration across 49 states. Texas is the state with the most anti-trans policy initiatives, with 97 active bills. 696!!! We need our allies. That's all. Have a good night. 💙🩷🤍🩷💙

This must be sarcasm.

The cost of an infomercial on the White House lawn is about $100 million

Republicans are slashing $23B from the PACT Act, denying vets the care they EARNED. My sister, a USAF vet, served near a burn pit—her disability pay is for the pain it caused. Cutting funding means thousands like her suffer without care. Veterans deserve better Republican Cuts Hurt Veterans

Crikey if this whole stunt didn't get sadder and sadder with each passing moment

Dear MAGA: You just turned bright liberal-green. Let us know what color you'd like for your little electric car.

Funny....All of a sudden, no one's performing arbitrary sex-change operations on unexpecting grade-schoolers anymore.

at no point of this did I have any idea what the next word grouping would be

🥹 13 GOP FLIPPED ON ANTI-TRANS BILL !!! Yey!! Thank you Rep Zephyr🌹

The people who are cheering on the elimination of the Department of Education couldn’t even tell you what it does without looking it up. 🤦‍♀️

YESTERDAY: "There is no substitute for Starlink." --Elon Musk, bragging about how dependent Ukraine is on his product. TODAY: "We are shipping 40,000 units to Ukraine to replace Starlink." --Eutelsat, a French satellite company.

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 Raise your ✋ hand and pass this on if you stand with Ukraine and against Russia!

Omg. She’s so ignorant. Just like all his other picks for the cabinet

N.Y. Times, June 8, 1939.

Were they hiding it or did Trump exacerbate their "affliction"?

"This is the most anti-veterans administration in history.” 🚨80,000 jobs are on the chopping block. All to benefit for the Billionaires! #RepublicanCutsHurtVeterans

Trump wants to restore gun rights to man who lost them when he was convicted of domestic violence When a DOJ official said, hell no, Trump had her fired That's because the man convicted of domestic violence is his pal Mel Gibson www.nytimes.com/2025/03/10/u...

Trump is crippling education. Not breaking or bending it. Crippling it! www.cnn.com/2025/03/11/p...

Exactly

Trump is mad that Europe is making him irrelevant to Ukraine

They're eating your Medicare. They're eating your Social Security. They're eating the funds of the people who paid into them.
