When Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and the GOP attack the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, they’re attacking Americans like Angela.

AIPAC now holds 328 seats in the United States House of Representatives: 🔵 DEM (86) ⚫️ AIPAC (328) 🔴 GOP (19) ⚪️ Vacant (2) [FL-01, FL-06] Putting Israel first and the needs of Americans second isn’t just bad politics—it’s a betrayal. #RejectAIPAC TrackAIPAC.com

This is how our government has been corrupted:  1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.  2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.  3) Donors make a huge profit.  4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

People who say the U.S. has never had gulags or programs are, once again, erasing Black people from American history.

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 😂

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

trying to imagine how loud the calls for my firing would be if i didn’t know who FDR was

Tesla's flagship store gets a makeover. 😳👇

This means nothing. Useless. Empty words, zero action. Boycott his events. Refuse to cover his photo ops and propaganda signings. He’s addicted to coverage and hates being ignored. Until you band together and do something, these statements are utterly pointless & pathetic.

Kathy Hochul should remove Eric Adams as mayor of NYC immediately

Democracy is under attack, there's no other way to put it

“The richest man in the world, Elon Musk, is stealing money from you to put in his pocket” has to be the easiest political argument ever www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

BREAKING: House Republicans have released their budget resolution. They are aiming to cut Medicaid by at least $880 billion, and cut SNAP by at least 20%.

Corporate media folks love saying shit like, "The Super Bowl is also the Trump Bowl!" If he so much as farts, they're all like, "We have smelt it because he has delt it, another win for Trump!" Their livelihood depends on always hyping him.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

A story told in two parts 😂

Pritzker: "He promised he was gonna lower costs & make us safer. He's done none of it. I realize he's only been in office 2 weeks, but it's gotten worse, not better. You think grocery prices have gone down? No, they've gone up bc of what he's threatening or what he's already put in place"

Pete Hegseth is the most incompetent of all Trump’s Cabinet picks. He's an alcoholic serial abuser who is unqualified for the job, and he will make our nation less safe. This was a completely reckless confirmation.

@mta.info to truly make CP work, you’ve gotta improve subway service. 12+ min wait for #ctrain during rush hour is not it!

I used to like Greenday. Now I love them!

I refuse to buy shitcoins

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be. You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion. Which is more powerful?

i am watching clips from the hegseth hearings and it is a goddamn insult to this country that this chucklefuck was even nominated

They are taking back campaign promises faster than they made them.

Jessica: The fire chief has been called a DEI hire. I would take her resume any day, 24 year vet, paramedic, engineer, fire inspector, captain, battalion chief, fire marshal, deputy chief.

McGovern: They have the nerve to lecture people about government efficiency. Come on. Get real. How many times last congress did they just send everyone home because they couldn't pass their own bills?

Manhattan has over 200 crosstown streets. Less than ten have "protected" bike lanes, and every one looks like this. Yet during dual climate and pedestrian death crises the majority of our council is complaining about bike lanes and fighting to protect car parking

Republicans couldn’t even pass a bill to keep the government open that they negotiated with themselves—after blowing up a bipartisan deal with Democrats because Elon Musk and Trump told them to. And then 38 Republicans voted against their own bill. 🤡

"Trump wasn’t simply mistaken or proven wrong. He deliberately lied, and the question now is whether the press will actually hold him accountable or remain his willing accomplices. The early returns aren’t great."

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.
