Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

This is how it’s done.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Friday that he was firing Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first female officer to rise to the Navy’s top job of Chief of Naval Operations, and would be looking for her replacement.

Black General Fired, Replaced by Less Qualified White Guy, Because That’s the New DEI ‘Donald Engineered It’: This is an affront on many levels. It’s going to blow up in Trumpty Dumpty’s face and well it should. News broke early Friday night that C.Q. Brown, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of…

Republicans just shot down my amendment to ensure we don’t cut Medicaid and kick millions of seniors off of their healthcare.

White House: Musk is not an employee of DOGE and has no authority. So who exactly is in charge at DOGE? What is Musk’s role?

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

The police misconduct database has been eliminated by the Department of Justice on Trump‘s order. America just became a much more dangerous place, particularly for people of color. As we know that they are disproportionately affected by police brutality. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

oh boy -- Rich McCormick bailed on CNN after his ill-fated town hall

Republicans are working to pass a budget to give a tax cut to big corporations and billionaires, yet tonight they blocked our amendment to ensure their plan would reduce housing costs for Americans. As if we needed more proof that they don't ACTUALLY care about lowering costs.

35% of the US is broken. They have taken the concept of 'American exceptionalism' and run off a cliff with it. They think because of something they are born with like skin color, they are better than those around them. They are not good beings. It is terribly depressing for me and others like me.

Happy Black History Month

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.
