BREAKING - The Dow just had its worst drop since March 2020 — at the beginning of Covid Back then it was a pandemic mismanaged by Trump Now it’s tariffs and inflation mismanaged by Trump Watch out — Trump is giving America economic Covid

He nails it.

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.

The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

I’m asking Congress to provide disaster funding to help Californians recover and rebuild from the devastating Los Angeles wildfires. It’s all-hands-on-deck to support our fellow Americans and get them back on their feet to begin rebuilding as soon as possible.

Hilarious

I used @5calls.org to call Rep Troy Balderson and Senators Husted & Bernie Moreno today I asked them if we could count on them to protect Medicaid All 3 offices replied "I can't say" "I CAN'T SAY?! AKFKM? This is one of the most urgent matters of the day FFS! #OHpol #Ohio

Cuts to NSF expected to be at 50% reduction in force for an independent agency that fuels discovery and innovation. "The NSF budget was $9B, or 0.13% of the total [budget]." This is not about fiscal prudence. This is about killing universities. nanoscale.blogspot.com/2025/02/the-...

Cuts to the FAA. To the CDC. Dismantling the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Trump & Musk have declared war on everyday Americans. WATCH & SHARE: #TheDangerousOnes

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

The People’s Hotline is blowing up on social media. Clips of YOUR CALLS are reaching MILLIONS of Americans. 🚨 We are looking for real, personal stories about how the Trump Administration is impacting you and your family. 🚨 These calls are cutting through the noise. Please call & PASS IT ON!

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

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.

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

There’s an existential desire for truth right now and many folks are feeling out where to get it. So the MeidasTouch Podcast rises. Also, the Meidas guys are way hotter than Joe Rogan and they don’t drool when a thought lasts longer than a few seconds.

Didn’t he recently say he was adding more gold to Mara lago??

This week isn't the first time former NFL kicker Chris Kluwe has spoken out, made a difference As a result of Kluwe's previous advocacy, the MN Vikings made contributions to LGBTQ orgs, suspended a coach for homophobic rants & instituted sensitivy training www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

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.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

🚨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!

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

Love you both!

Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason." www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/p...

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Did the @nytimes.com really quote the mf-ing communications director of the Houston YOUNG REPUBLICANS as if he were just some random young Black person who likes Trump? Cause it sure looks like it.

lol

BREAKING — I've confirmed the DOGE staffers at SSA. They are Marko Elez (who was previously fired for racist posts and then reinstated), Ethan Shaotran, Nikhil Rajpal, and Gautier Cole-Killian. This is per Social Security Works, a non-profit working to protect/expand Social Security.

NO KINGS, ONLY TRAINS is a pretty great 2028 slogan for anyone who wants it

This is Curtis Yarvin’s vision.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

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.

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

I mean- If we're serious about saving money......

listen to this. Elon can barely form a sentence right now.

BREAKING: A cadre of largely unidentified actors in the so-called Department of Government Efficiency are controlling major government functions with no real oversight or transparency. We're suing to force them to comply with the law and turn over records by March 10.

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.

Highly recommend.

I've read most of the analyses of the DOGE 2025 "receipts" site. This, from NPR, is the best I've read so far. Some of what they claim to have cut haven't been cut, other "cuts" will incur costs down the road. NPR says DOGE has made $2B of cuts, not $55B. www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

My latest: MeidasTouch @meidastouch.com Is Now #1 Podcast, Beating Out Joe Rogan

A judge said the Trump administration made a "mess" of plans for overseas USAID workers by contradicting a “crystal clear” understanding about how they would be treated.
