After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

That Trump is now calling Pres. Zelensky a “dictator” and it talked the U.S. into spending $350 billion (a lie) for a war Ukraine started (another disgusting lie) should remind you the White House occupant is mentally deranged and must be opposed at all times.

More than a few Dems could learn something about courage by watching AOC stand up to Homan. They could learn a lot about putting forth a narrative with effective messaging besides.

Hey @JDVance, and @elonmusk, and @realDonaldTrump it looks like the Auschwitz Memorial wants to educate you. STOP LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

We cannot ignore how shockingly abnormal it is for a private citizen — who himself has contracts with the federal government — to dispatch a private army of executives, data experts and recent high schoolers to dictate policies to federal agencies. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/elon...

To all the people who did not understand the lyrics during Kendrick show, here they are. BTW, I boycotted the Super Bowl, but I watched a clip of his performance tonight and was so impressed.

Have any of these DOGE employees completed a background investigation? Have they been given access to the agency’s sensitive compartmented information facility? What protocols are being utilized to protect our national security interests? Members of Congress must demand answers now.

Get ready. Trump is going to fire most of the VA workforce, 70% of which are Veterans, then to "fix" the problems he created, he's going to privatize the VA and send our veterans to expensive, shitty corporate health mills after he slashes health benefits so he and his buddies can get richer.

For those who worked so hard to hold them accountable... Pardons will not erase The nights they spent in jail Family and friends disgusted by their behavior Attorney fees and the fact that every time someone googles their name, they will see their crimes, and history will remember them

Nothing terrifies fascists more than mockery. It strips away the illusion of power and reveals them for what they really are: clowns in expensive suits.

Just have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his. It’s just a matter of time until a lot of people lose money from this. I’m a crypto fan. This is not crypto any more than Madoff was just buying and selling shares of stock

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆

With Project 2025 architect Russell Vought helming the Trump White House’s budget office, Medicare and Social Security could take massive damage—despite Trump’s campaign pledge not to harm either program. Your reminder that Project 2025 was always the MAGA Agenda.

Trump’s tax plan is unpopular. Americans oppose giving tax cuts to the rich and big corporations while shifting the burden to the middle class. Workers believe Trump’s tax proposals will hurt people like them. navigatorresearch.org/a-plurality-...

If you think only billionaires can control social media, You are absolutely wrong. Social media is completely dependent on its users. Think about why you do or did use FB, ThreadsTik tok or Twitter. It's because they have enough users. Take away all the "normies" and they all are worthless

When Fox News reported that the truck that plowed through NYE celebrants in New Orleans had recently crossed the southern border, it wasn’t as if it had pursued leads that turned out to be untrue. It did what it always does—pushing disinformation to stir hate, the goal of Roger Ailes from the start.

NEVER FORGET: Senator Lindsey Graham calls Social Security and Medicare "ENTITLEMENTS" (THEY'RE EARNED BENEFITS) & wants to cut them because he doesn't NEED them. Lindsey Graham is the EPITOME of ENTITLED. When his sister NEEDED his parents Survivor Benefits he didn't say "no, we don't want them."😡

This H1B dustup reminds me why I retired from lucrative Tech TelcoEngineer & later a SystemsAnalyst career in my 50s even tho I was making more $ than I've ever made. It's this kind of corp world BS and jackholes like Vivek & Elon acting like bullying gods when they know nothing abt American workers

Something about this whole Elon Musk referring to maga as subtard thing. Elonia being a billionaire is shielded from 99% of maga. So does that mean his low opinion of maga is solely based on his Mar A Lago maga & TRUMp family encounters. Hmmmm......

Billionaires own everything, even reality itself. For example, a hospital is understaffed, the nurses overworked. A patient’s family member doesn’t get seen for over two hours. Who is to blame? The nurses? The family…for getting mad? No. Greed is to blame.
