WARREN: "Only Congress -- not Donald Trump, not Elon Musk, not some 22-year-old programmers -- only Congress can shut this agency down."

National Day Of Protest February 17, 2025

95% of Trump campaign ads were about lowering food prices. 0% of Trump actions are about lowering food prices. Tariffs are actually raising prices again.

Trump has spent literally half of his presidency at Mar-a-Lago.

This has been happening since the dawn of time…

tRump quietly dismissed the federal watchdog responsible for gov corruption oversight, the one who managed whistleblower complaints and enforced anti-corruption laws. Now, this official is suing him, claiming the firing was illegal. tRump again eliminates a threat. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Karma, you gotta love her…

Dawn Jackson spent 25 years in a New Jersey prison for killing her step-grandfather. She never got the opportunity to tell a court that he’d sexually abused her since childhood. boltsmag.org/new-jer...

I vote nah…

The suggestion that Leon & his pubescent posse are showing up at Gov’t institutions & within hours identifying & responsibly cutting waste in specialties that he has no background or understanding is PREPOSTEROUS. He’s not cutting waste- He’s destroying our institutions & stealing your info.

The administration and many corporations have given diversity lip service. We the Resistance know better. We are #StrongerTogether 🤍🩶🖤🤎💛 ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Good Night 🫶🏽🙏🏽

THIS is how we break the felon’s power. Rep. Jamie Raskin brings the wisdom, fire, and constitutional expertise to hold him accountable. Listen, learn, and fight back 🔥🔥🔥

God, this sounds familiar for some reason…

BREAKING NEWS Two real estate brothers who worked with Ivanka Trump & Jared Kushner have been charged with raping 60 women. Oren and Alon Alexander are "big Trump supporters" who were "in the room" on election night and at multiple White House parties

Universities and Institutions have to push back NOW. When they threaten one group of scientific institutions, if we are silent, we will be next. HHMI and the other potential targets need to work with red state Unis to stall this illegal targeting in courts. www.science.org/content/arti...

People are going to die…

Jon Batiste, the guy who just sang the National Anthem at the Super Bowl, was on the board for the Kennedy Center until he was removed by Donald Trump a few days ago. Donald Trump also named himself the Chairman of the board.

Two lawyers, one Yale educated, one Harvard educated; one the VP, one a senator, suggesting that decisions made by courts aren’t legitimate if they don’t like the outcome. This is dangerous territory.

Here's what happens when the world's richest man puts a target on your back: — Why every American should care about CBS settling ‘dangerous’ Trump lawsuit, even MAGA. CBS’s parent company, Paramount, wants to merge with Skydance, another media giant, but they need the approval of Trump’s FCC to…

While Musk runs the country, Trump had a productive weekend naming himself Chair of the Kennedy Center, picking the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, canceling pennies, demanding Google Maps rename Gulf of Mexico, invited only White immigrants from Africa, and saved plastic straws.

This really does explain a lot about Trump’s actions.
