The heads of multiple federal agencies have told their employees not to respond to Musk’s email. Seems like Musk would’ve gotten approval for this draconian change in policy from Trump, with Cabinet officers informed in advance. But no, because this admin is in utter chaos.

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone to hear Donald Trump has been compared to mobster Tony Soprano by the former envoy to Panama www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The biggest implication of Trump saving Eric Adams: foreign regimes have realized they now have a green light to bankroll American politicians directly—and American politicians now realize the same thing. My latest for @newrepublic.com: newrepublic.com/article/1916...

And remember kids, a techno-fascist can never actually be your Neighbor -Mr. Rogers, just before he released the bees

MSNBC has canceled Joy Reid and Alex Wagner’s shows.

I added Maine Governor Janet Mills by popular demand to my article. She not only punched Trump in the face--she did it while he was talking to her in front of the cameras!

Who could have guessed that the former leader of the Proud Boys—convicted of sedition because of January 6th—would, after Trump pardoned him, start to harass the hero cops of January 6th? Who could ever have guessed it? (This went down at the Principles First conference in D.C.)

The DOJ, under Trump's direction is moving all incarcerated trans women into men's prisons. NPR says the DOJ is "well aware of concerns about risks of assault, sexual violence and suicides." This is what happens to trans women in men's prisons. Please share so it's well known. It's fucking cruel.

Consider how much of a problem you have being online and then ask yourself how often you’ve actually done this

We are literally getting defined out of existence. Why isn’t any politician standing up for us??? We are literally the first domino to fall and then they’ll attack the next vulnerable group.

JUST IN: MSPB member Cathy Harris, who's suiing over Trump's attempt to fire her from a position overseeing civil service disputes, lines up #SCOTUS litigator Neal Katyal for likely high court fight

There's going to be news about a woman illegally detained and being forcely removed from a Coeur d'Alene Idaho Town Hall meeting taking place at the high school by men that would not identify themselves wearing plain clothes because she opposed the republican viewpoints. youtube.com/shorts/hhJdH...

#FAFO town hall edition

OK, the report is now fully in major media. Media must get an extensive White House response; Congress must investigate (even if it's a minority report); DOJ and the FBI must investigate; the CIA must issue a report on what it knew about this and when.

I don’t get how his approval is above 15%. Who wanted Russia? Who wanted to fight with Canada? Who wanted inflation? Who wanted a wannabe king dismantling checks and balances? Who wanted the Jan. 6 extremists freed? just wait for the April & May jobs reports. newrepublic.com/post/191830/...

In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

““We did not elect him,” a man shouted. As the town hall reached its scheduled end, more constituents shouted questions about Musk’s access to taxpayer data and yelled “don’t lie to us””

"Don't call me a dick." - Elon Musk, dick

Paging DOGE: I found your government waste in your Trump. Fire him.

Overflow angry crowd for town hall with Glenn Grothman in Oshkosh this morning ... www.wpr.org/news/glenn-g...

Regardless of how much coverage it gets, Trump aiming to install a military command that places loyalty to him above loyalty to the constitution needs to be a much bigger story.

Musk is attempting to extort Ukraine into accepting 47’s agreement over minerals. F’ck. Musk.

Beware Trump especially on Friday evenings, notorious slow news time to undertake mischief with minimal scrutiny www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

The Trump Administration has cost our country over 22,406 American jobs. trumpcostsamerica.com

I love watching this . . Over and over . .

As a Navy Veterans Daughter I condemn the firing of admiral lisa franchetti first woman to lead us navy special operations You fired another high ranking woman in the us military #StandwithAdmiralLisaFranchetti #ProudBlueVet #WomeninTheMilitary 👇👇 www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

"We don't work for DOGE. We have always worked for you." Yes!

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The 'find out' phase is here.

THIS IS A DICTATOR

Important new in Eric Adams case. Judge Ho does the right thing. "To assist with its decision-making via an adversarial process, the Court exercises its inherent authority to appoint Paul Clement of Clement & Murphy PLLC as amicus curiae to present arguments on the Government's Motion to Dismiss."

When we talk about UHC we always get that “nothing is free” bullshit thrown back at us. No shit nothing is free, my $1500/month I pay to UHC is damn sure not free. I’d rather pay for a million poor people’s health care than one oligarch’s yacht. Thanks

Get arrested preventing DOGE goons from entering public buildings, get arrested going into public buildings to find out what DOGE goons are doing, get arrested on the floor during confirmation votes to protest the rubber stamping of unqualified candidates

Now why do you think it is that DOJ dismissed charges against SpaceX WITH prejudice but Emil Bove plans to hold charges over Eric Adams' head for almost four more years? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

And to add to the idea "Trump Doesn't Have a Mandate" Here's polling @maddow.msnbc.com spotlighted last night: Trump is underwater with the public and his BHAG's are even less popular We must continue to #DisruptTheCoup and slow him down. If we slow his roll, we stop his coup

TIMBER: Trump's approval ratings keep falling. Last 3 polls show mid 40's approval and falling. (Biden was over 50% approval until August 2021.) Reason Trump's #s are falling is because of YOU AND I. Corporate media has given Trump what he wants. Dem leaders barely attacked him. We did this!

How it’s going for America with a criminal in the Oval Office. #Resist

Politico Europe's Tim Ross offers "a recap of 29 times Trump has sided with Putin in his first month back in power."

Alaska has the fourth-highest number of federal workers per capita—fish & game, forestry, and more—their jobs are being cut under the excuse of “poor performance.” Lisa Murkowski knows that’s a lie—so why won’t she just say, it’s a lie. Collins, Burchett, and the rest are just giving lip service.

This is absolutely disgusting.

CARTOON OF THE DAY

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

"why do you talk about America so much, you don't live there?" Setting aside the two small points that 1. I have the capacity for empathy and 2. People I love live there, If you live almost anywhere in the world, it's like living above your gun-obsessed landlord.
