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

Daniel Dale, as ever, doing the Lord’s work:

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump just fired Joint Chiefs Chairman CQ Brown—no reason given. That’s another highly qualified African American official ousted, only to be replaced by a white guy. This is what "America First" looks like? So sad.

It would be far less time-consuming to just document when he tells the truth. shorturl.at/tohgb

The force is strong, it is a powerful thing.🔥 It is the blood that runs through our veins . We the people have had enough ! ❤️ #DontCutMyMedicaid

Thread. Stay in the game.

Superb piece by my friend @stevenbeschloss.bsky.social about supporting foreign criticism of Trump's America. It's not unpatriotic of us to feel this way. It's a rejection of fascism and an endorsement of the need for freedom around the world.

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.

Connecticut was out at The CT Capitol today.

Mark my words—He is going to try to shut down mail-in voting. When he does, we will sue and we will win. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

This is really something

Miami's Enrique Tarrio was arrested outside the U.S. Capitol today and charged with assaulting a female protester. Another Trump supporter who was freed and is already back to committing crimes against Americans. via www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

Well, turns out there’s another layer to his dubious background. According to independent journalist Jacob Silverman, Coristine is the grandson of Valery Martynov, a former KGB spy. Per Silverman’s research, Martynov was an officer in the technical espionage division… gizmodo.com/doge-staffer...

Yes! Read @craigunger.bsky.social “Kompramat “ and”house of Putin, house of Trump”. l.smartnews.com/p-j351SFc/2O...

The allegations of Trump's KGB links are mounting up... bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...

Republicans are embracing full on fascism. Nazi salutes, siding with murderous dictators, trash talking our allies, promoting hate, racist ideology, and bigotry, as well as, gaslighting Americans 24/7. In 30 days Trump & Republicans have managed to tank America’s reputation. The world hates us.

Governor Mills doesn’t suffer fools lightly, and it appears she has even less tolerance for bullies. (And as a former attorney general, she knows what she’s talking about.)

Not all heroes wear capes. Great work Governor Mills.

One other brilliant aspect of Judge Ho appointing Scalia clerk Paul Clement as his amicus: It'll make it FAR HARDER for Emil Bove to conduct his "weaponization" witchunt targeting (among others) Scalia clerk Danielle Sassoon.

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?

I was promised drag queens. Seriously, where are the drag queens?

There will be retribution. The incoming FBI director published a book that includes an enemies list. In a weird, backhanded compliment, he told Steve Bannon that I am an “enemy of the Republican Party. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/ther...

As Felon47 delegates more & more of his job to Elon Musk, senior officials from prior administrations, including his own, are being stripped of their security clearances. Both co presidents know their actions will not stand the scrutiny of experienced policy makers. #DemVoice1

Trump Tyranny Tracker: Day 32 is out! The tracker documenting the latest in corruption, power consolidation, civil & human rights abuses, and weaponization of government news.

💥 Apple is upholding its commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Despite attack from right-wing anti-DEI shareholder activists -- the same anti-DEI group that targeted Costco. And just like Costco, look for Apple shareholders to tell anti-DEI activists to take a hike on Feb 25.

Wow. The French right are embarrassed by the American MAGA right. “Even WE don’t actually do a Nazi salute”

Fuck donald trump! Trump said all federal workers will be forced to return to the office. Those who work from home are, “not working, they’re playing tennis, they’re playing golf. Read more at: economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/interna...

Trickle up economics.

I'm a huge fan of Dolly Parton. We're the same age and same height, but she can sing better. We also share the same values, including that every child should have the chance to dream big and succeed. Indiana Republicans should reverse these cuts. www.huffpost.com/entry/indian...

If you are experiencing rage and despair about what is happening in America and the world right now because of the Trump-Vance-Musk regime, you are hardly alone. But a groundswell of opposition is growing. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/ten-reasons-for-optimism
