We want to send a message to the world: what has happened today is an absolute disgrace. It is completely un-American.

Yes

Kendrick Lamar taking psychology at UCLA in order to improve his lyrics is absolutely terrifying

If the market continues to trend down, and the Atlanta Fed turns out to be right, the midterms will be very interesting. The battle between republican self preservation and MAGA will be intense

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮 #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦

Per @chrisdjackson.bsky.social on another platform: “It took me 30 seconds to find at least ten postings from Zelensky directly thanking the United States for their support. There are many more. This is pure BS.”

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation. I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

I typically avoid cable news these days like the plague. I have since 2016ish. Unless it for a specific story like a hurricane. Tonight I am subjecting myself to it because I am so horrified by what happened today in Washington.

Please read—this is becoming serious!

Perfectly executed piece from my colleague @danamilbank.bsky.social, on our owner's edict that WaPo opinions write "every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets." The greatest threat to these pillars is Donald Trump. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

I love my country. And I agree with the Kyiv Independent. 🇺🇸🇺🇦

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

I have never felt the weight of the disappointment of my ancestors more than I do today. My grandfathers and great uncle did not fight in WWII for a DJT and JD to destroy this country and the relationships with our allies

Elon Musk claims DOGE has saved $55 billion, but the numbers don’t add up. DOGE released a list of canceled contracts totaling $16 billion in supposed savings. However, nearly half of that came from an $8 billion ICE contract—except that contract was actually worth just $8 million.

Brazil shows that it can be done. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w...

Two important articles that should be read together. The first is in today’s @nytimes.com by @katherinestewart.bsky.social details how dangerous this moment is and highlights the role of the oligarchs, among others. flip.it/oOresu 1/2

🧪 If I were Canadian PM I would immediately: 1. Create a new $15B science fund 2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada 3. Immediate permanent residency 4. Citizenship after 2 years Overnight a science superpower

"I was a heroin addict for 14 years," RFK Jr just now in his bid to be confirmed as Secretary of HHS. Imagine a person of color or a woman saying that and people shrugging it off as cool. That is 100% pure uncut white male privilege right there.

I saw a post saying that ICE is pausing its tip line, so I decided to call myself to verify. The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips. Good job, friends.

Iran, if you’re listening …

As a father of five kids, I totally agree with this evergreen post.

The Inauguration on Monday is being moved inside due to the “weather” even though it’s always held in D.C. which is always cold in January. But the fact that the Broligarchs will all be in one place at the same time surely has nothing to do with them hiding indoors.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to Social Security and Medicare. 4) Repeat. Don't let them get away with it.
