Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

🚨BREAKING: Supreme Court keeps lower court order that undid Trump effort to fire Special Counsel Dellinger in place. Trump administration's motion to reverse is held in abeyance until after TRO expires on 2/26. Subscribe to Democracy Docket to stay informed. www.democracydocket.com/me-subscribe...

If this is the level of reckless sloppiness and shoddy work that is now taking over our government, do you trust them to keep our food safe, our airplanes from crashing, and our towns warned in advance and protected when tornadoes are coming? www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

From United Humanists on FB

Amen to that.

He nails it.

We refuse to let the oligarchs win and control us, and I feel a sea change (link to full video in reply)

If we have enough people with the knowledge and moral fortitude of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and the Associated Press- we might be able to save our Democracy

Democrats should go to all these ruby red and vulnerable GOP districts where voters are upset at Trump and Musk and court them. Full court press.

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.

🚨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!

Last night MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell said Trump was the first U.S. president to “switch sides during a war.” That aptly describes Trump’s betrayal but it can’t begin to convey the depravity of what Trump did in throwing our ally overboard and lying about every facet of Putin’s criminal aggression.

If you've ever bought digital books on Amazon, now would be a good time to download backup copies for your personal archive. They'll be discontinuing the ability to download e-books on Feb 26th and everything will have to be done through their ecosystem. #bookSky 🧵 Here's how to do it:

Instead of being sent to prison for his many crimes against the United States, the orange felon was given full power of the US govt and is now referring to himself as a King. I hate him with every fiber of my being and I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this tyrannical shit.

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

Dear third-party voters, you’ve been awfully quiet. What’s up? What’s the game plan for the next 3 years and 11 months? Asking for 75,017,626 friends who did the right thing because we wanted to avoid all of this shit!!!

Fuck Putin. Fuck trump. I stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇸.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but we didn't have multiple plane crashes per week under President Biden and Secretary Buttigieg.

Another good trope for Not My President’s Day

Just wonderful writing on the 60 Minutes piece on President aMusk dismantling of USAID "The world's richest man cut off aid for the world's poorest people." Well done.

60 MINUTES: “Utter nonsense. The most accountable aid agency in the world is USAID… DOGE fired their top 58 officials within an hour of arriving…” This was never about efficiency. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGLXa9r...

Can anyone even think of a legitimate reason for him to get this? Can anyone even proffer an argument that it won't lead to grave abuses and violations of privacy? wapo.st/3QizwcN

Exactly 😡

Could someone out there write a definitive guide on convenient alternatives to using Amazon.com for goods and books and whatnot? Asking for some folks who don’t want to see democracy die in darkness.

States are being ravaged by floods, thousands of federal employees were fired for being collateral damage of revenge, food aid rots in ports, bird flu/measles are spreading, inflation/prices are surging, yet the orange felon wasted millions riding around Daytona 500. I hate him.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

HOLY SHIT you guys, check out this AMAZING song, Hostile Government Takeover, by @agiftfromtodd! He's singing truth, and this tune slaps. Give it a listen and repost to share.🙏💪

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

It’s FUKKKING tiring already!
