10% of NASA’s workforce has been laid off—guess that’ll be a boost for SpaceX.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

Criminals are running amok inside our government and nothing will be done about it because—oh, that’s right!—America voted for a convicted criminal to be in charge of all federal law enforcement See how that works

I'm watching Canadian officials hold a presser on the Toronto plane crash and remarkably they're not blaming DEI or recklessly speculating about causes. They could never cut it down here in Trumplandia.

NEW: A blockbuster ruling in Wisconsin hands vote suppressors a big loss. A victory for voting rights! Paige and I explain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXur...

Russia's sovereign wealth fund expects a number of US companies to return to Russia as early as the second quarter of 2025, its chief said after the highest-level US-Russian meeting since the Ukraine war began reut.rs/413DCu3

In South Carolina, tonight: “I have an ectopic pregnancy. It’s on my ovary. They’re making me risk my ovary even though I don’t want to. They refuse to do the surgery.” #ForcedBirthNation Original Post: www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2yCKENt/

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

Trumpists will continue to be furious at any dissent no matter how much power they steal. That’s because the administration is premised on pathological insecurity. They’re shitty people, they know it, and they will never stop resenting being seen as shitty people.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

Frozen waterfall vs human

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

This is fascism.

Spot on.

Our team reviewed the entire DOGE website. Nothing they have identified constitutes evidence of fraud or corruption—both of which are crimes. Feel free to audit us. The funds were allotted by Congress, and OIGs regularly reviewed expenditures for fraud.

The judge had issued a temporary restraining order against an administration plan to freeze payments for grants and other federal programs, but says the administration has not been fully complying.

I wonder how one possibly justifies any of these actions

Lol

National Day Of Protest February 17, 2025

🔊 Today on the Reuters World News daily podcast: - Trump says Hamas should free hostages by Saturday or 'let hell break out' - Elon Musk-led group makes $97 billion bid for OpenAI - Protest erupts after US consumer watchdog boss tells staff to stop work reut.rs/40UMl1z

Doug Mills is one of the greatest to ever do it.

is the goal merit or is the goal segregation?

NEW: DOJ files a notice of correction indicating that (1) it underestimated the number of USAID employees placed on leave; and (2) misstated that only future contracts were being frozen, when existing contracts were frozen as well. I suspect the judge will not be happy. www.democracydocket.com

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

Yes he is.

BREAKING The Trump administration is maintaining a funding freeze at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in defiance of two federal court orders. The ongoing freeze was confirmed by an NIH official and internal correspondence reviewed by Popular Information.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

A statement from the Kennedy Center

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

“Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the F.B.I. and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and F.B.I. policy.” -- James E. Dennehy, NYC’s top FBI agent. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/u...

NPR's findings show that January 6 rioters pardoned by tRump include a disturbing number of individuals with serious criminal backgrounds. These pardoned criminals have been convicted of rape, child abuse, domestic violence, and drug trafficking. #tRumpsMoralBankruptcy www.npr.org/2025/01/30/n...

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Russia, China, North Korea, Iran — all of our enemies are absolutely delighted.

Yes. Finally, some meaningful pushback against these constitutional outlaws. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

tRump's using a really old playbook…
