Lean, ingieran y digieran!

In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years. Dr. Vinod Balachandran from @mskcancercenter.bsky.social joins us to discuss the results and what they could mean for cancer treatment.

So they told us what they were going to do to ALL of us. Here is a tracker on their progress in destroying our country: www.project2025.observer

SCOTUS conservative justices accused liberal justices of “fear mongering on the basis of extreme hypotheticals about a future where the President feels empowered to violate federal criminal law.” They weren’t fear mongering; they saw the writing on the wall. ⬇️

U. S. District Court Judge Dale Ho will hold a hearing tomorrow on whether dropping the federal prosecution of NYC’s corrupt mayor is in the “public interest.” It isn’t. Deference to DOJ is required. Abdication of judgment isn’t. If ever there was a case in which the judge should say no, it’s this.

🚨BREAKING: In 4-3 decision, Wisconsin Supreme Court reverses lower court decision and DISMISSES voter suppression lawsuit. A big victory for our clients the WI Alliance for Retired Americans and voting rights in Wisconsin. Another stinging loss for the GOP! www.democracydocket.com/cases/wiscon...

Lawrence: Because of Musk and Trump, for the first time Social Security payments are not guaranteed

Democrats.Allow me to introduce you to the KISS principle.Keep it simple, stupid.Get together and develop a plan to have mass protests and what the message will be.Go home to your district and get your constituents riled up and get out infront of them,lead the charge.We can't wait for the mid terms.

U.S. Dept of Veterans Affairs confirms it has dismissed more than 1,000 employees A once unthinkable concept for an agency that operates 100+ major hospitals and many hundreds more clinics And processes veterans benefits news.va.gov/press-room/v...

A pro-Hitler paid advertisement is being served to users of X, encouraging them to rethink their opinions of the genocidal Nazi leader.

A little something for the soul!

I wonder how one possibly justifies any of these actions

Make no mistake, Donald Trump and Elon Musk are destroying the credibility of the Department of Justice by sending its lawyers into court to make absurd legal arguments and repeated factual misrepresentations. This will not end well.

BREAKING: Judge Beryl Howell has ruled that the FBI will have to release documents related to Trump's mishandling of classified documents in a FOIA case brought by Jason Leopold. From Kyle Cheney: www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Buried deep within Project 2025 is a proposal to completely gut the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency – a federal agency that helps protect the nation from cyber attacks and election threats. Here's what you should know.

The Doomday scenario. The courts can only do so much.What happens if the Trump administration does not comply? Who will stop him and his henchmen? Surely,it won't be the justice department. Remember, our failed Supreme Court gave him imunity.

"Here’s the thing: When we get to that final showdown, it’s for all the marbles. If Trump can successfully defy a SCOTUS order, then American democracy is over."

Good news! "A federal judge paused the Trump administration’s “deferred resignation” offer to federal workers until at least Monday. Federal workers had just hours left to decide whether to accept an offer to resign from their positions now while retaining pay and benefits through September."

With all of the Trump/Musk mayhem, don't ignore the GOP's continued assault on free and fair elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Hold the fuck on — the Department of Government Efficiency, the entity which claims its mission is to end “wasteful spending”, was given SEVEN MILLION TAXPAYER DOLLARS to cover its “expenses” in the span of a single week?!?! Are you fucking kidding me?!?

Yo DOGE idiots, the GlobeMaster C-17 used to transport 104 individuals deported to India cost $28K/hr to fly. At 35 hrs round trip for this military transport, it will cost US taxpayers $980K. Have you considered using Expedia? So much for “efficiency”. Dolts. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

@democracydocket.com @marcelias.bsky.social I have a question that perhaps others have as well: Why hasn’t anyone in federal law enforcement applied for, secured & executed a warrant of arrest for Musk & crew?

🚨BREAKING: The Federal Bureau of Investigation Agents Association files federal court lawsuit against Department of Justice over the improper targeting of agents previously involved in politically sensitive investigation. For more details follow @democracydocket.com. www.democracydocket.com

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

NEW: The 4th Circuit dismisses a lawsuit filed by right-wing groups that accused Maryland of maintaining inaccurate voter rolls and using faulty voting machines. The court ruled that the groups lacked standing.

Crockett: “I’m tired of the white tears. If you’re competent you’re not concerned. When you compare me to Greene/Boebert there’s no comparison… The only ppl crying are mediocre white boys beaten out by people that had to work much harder.” Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DFp8K0M...

If only there was a word for when an unelected oligarch moves quickly to take over control of the government. The legacy media is failing us. Support independent media. www.democracydocket.com

A foreign-born private citizen with unfathomable wealth & deep financial ties to our nation’s adversaries has seized control of our government and is currently canceling congressionally apportioned spending without a shred of authority. And no one seems to be able to stop him. So this is fine.

Once the cyberbarons fully occupy and effectively seize control of the Treasury and other key government agencies, it won’t be long before they relegate Trump to a rubber-walled romper room, wheeling him out for occasional bursts of what passes for charisma to humor him with the illusion of power.

Hoping that Trump fails is not a plan. We must develop and foster new movements, structures, tactics, platforms and leaders to oppose Trump and articulate a positive vision. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/buil...

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

NEW: US government websites are disappearing in real time, including sites for the US Agency for International Development, foreign assistance, neglected diseases, and children in adversity. We analyzed more than 1000 .gov websites to track what's been taken down—and what's next. wrd.cm/4aFMs5A

Aside from Donald, the person i despise most in this world is Mitch McConnell. Donald Trump is president because of this asshole... McConnell solely could have kept him out of the white house. I hate him

Fuck this guy. Ask any nurse or LPN or ER doc or admin clerk or social worker if they work weekends. This disrespect to our federal workforce is disgusting. Especially from this piece of shit.

This is awesome. From a custom knife forging shop in Edom, Texas.
