Transgender Troops to Be Separated From Military in New Pentagon directive. Also, in 1935, in accordance with Nazi racial law, the military prohibited Jews from joining its ranks. Those already serving were dismissed. Does everyone see the parallels here?

This is doing the rounds. It's a very good burn 🔥, but should come with the caveat that this is a satirical account. ~AA

Here is the hateful Moms 4 Liberty snitch site to report teachers who "commit DEI". 😉 you know what to do: enddei.ed.gov

Brexiters have national betrayal in their DNA. They hope Trump will bring our govt down, keep us away from the EU and trample all over us on trade. You might not agree with a fair bit that Starmer’s govt is doing but surely you still want what’s best for our country. And it sure as shit isn’t this…

Well, he did tell us to tighten up border security, after all…

After the Trump administration pressured Romania to lift the Tate brothers’ travel ban—despite their ongoing trial there for rape, child trafficking, and money laundering—they’re now heading to the U.S. MAGA will give them a hero’s welcome The MAGA movement is rotten to the core.

Andrew Tate has been accused of rape and human trafficking in the UK. An attempt by the Trump administration to stand in the way of Britain's justice system would be deeply wrong. The Tate brothers must face justice here in the UK.

After the Trump Admin lobbies to get the alleged sex trafficking Tate brothers’ travel restrictions lifted to come to FL, Desantis is mad and says nobody notified him and his AG is looking at their legal options.

In what world did Trump think it was a good idea to bring the sex trafficing Tate brothers into America? So we are importing criminals now? Must be getting really weird over on truth social

Cowards, every single one of them

Last week, I asked for YOUR nominees: Who paved the way for MAGA? Who should history blame? And YOU delivered. We brought in Scott Dworkin @dworkin.bsky.social to run through the TOP 10 Godfathers of MAGA! Please watch & share:

🚨 This U.S. Coast Guard Veteran, dedicated to fighting waste, fraud, and abuse, was fired from the Federal Acquisition Service. If the government was serious about accountability, they’d be hiring more experts—not purging them. Watch her story:

NOON tomorrow New Jersey 33 Washington Street TOM's RIVER Friday 2/28. CD4, your rep Chris Smith is selling your health for trump. SHOW up and please find a better rep for the next election. NJ IS BETTER THAN THIS SHOW UP and SHOW OUT. #DemVoice1 bsky.app/profile/prog...

If your representative is dodging in-person town halls, call them out! Tag them and demand they face their constituents.

UNDERSTAND THE ASSIGNMENT: tomorrow, February 28th, is the Economic Blackout. I ain’t buying shit. Plan ahead, but if you must buy essentials, use cash and support local businesses only. No corporate chains!

An average person who did something as incompetent as “accidentally cancelling Ebola prevention” wouldn’t be applauded, they’d be fired. And they didn’t restore it, Elon Musk was lying, the Ebola prevention work still isn’t happening.

Did y'all hear about Elon Musk new $2 BILLION FAA contract? Conflict of interest . . .👀 Instead of Republicans taking jobs and programs away, they need to be investigating this—but OH RIGHT—they report to King Musk. www.cnn.com/2025/02/25/b...

@westenglandbylines.co.uk @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Yeah, we wouldn’t want that. Let’s instead claim wind and solar aren’t energy, and bail out the worst-leaking segment of the gas industry.

@cnn.com @msnbc.com @muellershewrote.bsky.social @wordswithsteph.bsky.social

More wins! We just killed an"abortion trafficking" bill, which would have created a new crime targeting any woman traveling through Montana while seeking abortion care. Dems are fighting like hell over here in Montana. We're seeing a ton of bad bills, so it's always good when we get a win.

I refuse to vote for yet another billionaire who will work with Trump & Elon Musk to try and dismantle the Department of Education. Republicans are pushing a pro-billionaire, anti-public school agenda. I voted NO to advance Linda McMahon's confirmation.

Republicans are crashing the economy in real time. The American people are taking notice.

During Trump's CFPB Director nomination hearing, it broke that the agency is dropping lawsuits against companies accused of cheating American families out of their money. This wasn't a coincidence. It shows exactly who is in charge right now: Elon Musk.

It's time to stand up and speak out. Call (202) 224-3121 and tell your representatives to not let Donald Trump and his administration take away your services.

In his Oval Office meeting with Keir Starmer, President Trump claimed the US was “in for $300 billion in Ukraine”. We’ve not seen any evidence to support this figure - as we wrote last week, it’s far higher than other estimates of US aid to Ukraine.

Not pro-life

The Trump Crash continues. Bravo, MAGA. 🤦‍♀️

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

Warren: Elon, stop being such a coward. You claim to be for maximum transparency—so get out of your bunker and come face real questions.

@westenglandbylines.co.uk @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social @mrjamesob.bsky.social @vicderbyshire.bsky.social

Donald Trump's nominee for Solicitor General argued last year that the President could assassinate political opponents and, barring impeachment first, he could not be prosecuted him for it. Even today, he embraces that dangerous view.

The cruelty is the point.

I was honored by @principlesfirst.bsky.social @principles1dmv.bsky.social with your prestigious award. I'm proud to have served and defended our nation at home and abroad and against foreign and domestic threats hoping to make our nation a better place to live. youtu.be/t61AJONshBo?...

This is excellent from Vance local Paper @ohiocapitaljournal.com OUCH! And good to see them taking the side of Rory Stewart and, er, the Pope, on Vance mistaken views on God ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/02/25/o...

Fascism in action. Scaring children & families like this is cruel. The Western World is watching with complete disgust and loathing for Trump & co! @westenglandbylines.co.uk @mrjamesob.bsky.social @channel4news.bsky.social @cnn.com @alexhh.bsky.social @lewisgoodall.com @goodlawproject.bsky.social

This is evil. Pure evil.

Thank you Lawrence O'Donnell for focusing on the crucial work of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Without this crucial consumer watchdog, Americans will be more vulnerable to scams and will face higher costs.

Tribal Nations across the U.S. have been impacted by federal funding freezes & the firing of staff at BIA, BIE, and IHS. These actions undermine tribal trust and treaty responsibilities. We ask the Administration to take immediate action to halt, exempt, and reverse these actions.

We just watched President Musk hold a cabinet meeting: Absolutely unproductive It’s clear who’s really in charge All about trying to please Musk What’s going on here? www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

Over half of Trump’s appointees to the Justice Department to receive hearings have been his personal lawyers. Bondi, Blanche, Sauer, Dhillon. He’s turning the DOJ into Trump LLP.

VA official says it's "absolute chaos" there. Even Trump appointees are afraid to act out of fear of angering the public or the White House. "It's leading to paralysis. ... The best employees are starting to look elsewhere. I can't overemphasize that enough." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

I deleted a post w/clip of Don Jr talking abt Russia bc I'm having a hard time tracking down the source of it. It's circulating on a number of big X accounts, but when I scrolled through the podcast from which it purportedly came, I couldn't find original soundbite. Will repost if I track it down.

Nope. Our criminal president is NOT going to be allowed to extort the state of California

“You’re terminated because…?” Fired federal employees are telling their stories—no deep state, just career public servants tossed aside. DOGE’s mass firings aren’t about efficiency—they’re gutting expertise, wrecking lives, and calling it “reform.”

Narrator: Bongino is of course a far right podcaster.

Several of President Trump’s nominees for senior Justice Department positions faced questions from Senate Democrats about whether it would ever be lawful for a president to defy a court order, with the nominees largely suggesting they couldn't fully answer without more specifics.
