How many Park Ranger salaries could this have paid for? lhttps://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/trump-kristi-noem-200-million-dhs-ad-campaign-thanks-president-1235276324/

. General Mark Milley was right . . . ... and he's still right ! 💠 👊 💠

Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Federal workers are getting emails asking them to explain the work they did last week. Elon Musk says not responding "will be taken as a resignation."

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

Slow your complaints about Zelensky's signing the mineral deal. As with many things, there are more nuances than binary good or bad. I trust Zekensky to understand. I do think you have to stop, pause and consider actions vs rhetoric.

Remember this one....

If you still have friends/family who think this administration will help them, talk to them about money....

Found some peace in this.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

it is shocking the extent to which they openly sneer at morality

This is really something

In an unprecedented purge of the military’s senior leadership, President Donald Trump fired the top US general just moments before his defense secretary fired the chief of the US Navy and the vice chief of the Air Force.

This x10000000000 “In other words: We, the opposition, are the majority. Take heart.” www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/they-are-a...

Real people. Real stories. Real impacts.

All this bullshit immediately crumbles when it's presented to anyone who's not a sympathetic cohost on your podcast

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

Nailed it!!

Watch this. Trust me. #NO #Wethepeople #resist

We refuse to let the oligarchs win and control us, and I feel a sea change (link to full video in reply)

The Russian military is sending wounded troops on crutches back to the frontlines to fight, and redeploying soldiers with significant injuries to combat roles, as it struggles with growing manpower issues, according to videos and testimony obtained by CNN: bit.ly/3Xg5Fp1

Unfortunately I won’t be to DC in time, but this rally for Ukraine is happening in Lincoln memorial. Attend if you can and Slava Ukrainii!

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Hey. You should text/call/voice-note some friends just because. Don't just DM silly videos. Check in with them. We all need some genuine connection right now!

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Some of us called this out a few weeks ago... www.techdirt.com/2025/02/03/m...

The saber rattling.....

Simplify the arguments. Say things need oversight to ensure legality. Protect our courts from endless future lawsuits. Trump understands that strategy.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

Hey everyone! I did an emergency live over on Substack, reminding us all that we will win this thing! Take a look! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

A federal appeals court allowed the head of a government ethics watchdog agency, whom President Donald Trump fired last week, to stay on the job. It’s a decision that will likely tee up the fight over similar dismissals for the Supreme Court: cnn.it/3Qlfyhm

During segregation Black and white men couldn't even swim together. But, at 1:23 a.m. on Sept. 5, 1942, French was one of a few uninjured Sailors that found themselves floating on makeshift rafts when the Japanese ships turned their guns from the crippled ships to the crew floating in the water.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

This is shocking

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Roses are red, violets are blue, today is the Eagles parade — and Valentine’s Day too 💕 🔗 www.inquirer.com/eagles/inq2/...

I organize online, but I show up in person. We can’t just throw hot takes out on social media. We have to call, write, testify, and march if we can. Show up and they’ll know the resistance is real.

Vance needs to go home and stay there

Yes. But they are missing that much of this has to be performative. That’s what Trump is great at and Dems are awful at. You can’t just tell voters , you have to know how to sell voters. Trump gives sales pitches, Dems show charts. One goes viral. The other is ignored and forgotten
