The US has become a lawless Country Governed by a Crime Syndicate.

The former head of the Social Security Administration says he expects the agency to miss on some payments over the next three months, interrupting some people's benefits, for the first time in Social Security's history of eight decades: www.cnbc.com/2025/03/01/d...

They really give away the game when the first or only regulations that go after are all the ones about foreign election interference and money laundering and corruption. They are opening the door to their own future crimes.

In what sense do we have a Constitution if the executive can just pick and choose which laws to enforce?

The same week that Elon Musk baselessly called Social Security a "Ponzi scheme," his co-president Donald Trump announced that he wants to create a national crypto reserve. This could result in taxpayer dollars being used to prop up an actual Ponzi scheme. Hello?

Yep. Trump was performing, just like any boardroom scene on The Apprentice. I was shocked he didn't end it with "You're fired!"

Trump’s outburst in the Oval Office on Friday confirmed that Putin has been his partner in politics since at least 2016. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

While he chokes off cancer research and fires VA researchers, the President is using your taxpayer dollars to buy crypto and enrich his personal allies. This is the most corrupt administration in history and it's not even close.

“This is treason adjacent. I’m sure Pete Hegseth is very busy firing black people and women, so he’s not focused on the actual target here, which is Vladimir Putin.” @therickwilson.bsky.social on the U.S. halting offensive cyber operations against Russia.

Why are American taxpayers going to bail out scam artists losing money in the crypto markets? We are going to borrow more money to pump it into the crypto market to enrich scammers and leeches who produce nothing of value for humanity?

Here's the history on how America took Ukraine's nuclear weapons. In exchange, we promised to protect them from Russia. It is why the World can no longer trust us. In breaking the Budapest Memorandum agreement we also tried to take their minerals! And we laughed & mocked how their President dresses.

A crypto national reserve is like a national reserve of Beanie Babies. It serves no function. There is no situation where it would be necessary. Except to move massive sums of taxpayer dollars to private interests in exchange for worthless garbage.

Y'all read 3500 pages of the shitty Twilight novels and couldn't bring yourself to read the 900 pages of Project 2025.

Okay, nerds, buckle in! It's time for some SCIENCE. Back in the late 1960s, a scientist got some government funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Atomic Energy Commission to look for interesting bacteria living in extreme environments. 1/x

"move away from the dominance of small dollar donations" ie ignore the actual base of the party for the suits and donors, everyone should call their Dems demanding the names of whoever wrote this and when those party resignations will be released to the public

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

Meanwhile in Vermont .... ==================

Obviously this should be investigated by the governm— … oh wait

People assume Andrew Cuomo is tough and A Fighter because he always looks angry and acts weird. Mistaking a total lack of emotional self-regulation and wild, self-destructive spite for Masculine Strength is one of the defining political errors to me. No one even tries to keep it together anymore.

Australian newspaper "The Sun-Herald" opinion piece calls it out. American msm, take notes.

Youve never heard of @team18f.bsky.social but if you’ve ever used a govt website, you have them to thank for it running smoothly. And they were all just fired. I have a feeling this is not something that R voters and constituents can twist, so I recommend sharing their story far and wide! 18f.org

The lawsuit, filed by Elias Law Group on behalf of the three national Democratic committees, challenges an expansive executive order Trump issued earlier this month that would give him unprecedented power over key regulatory agencies that were designed to operate without direct White House control.

An early spring on Bainbridge Island, WA. #flowers #photography #Spring #BlueSkyArtShow

The cowardice of the GOP has been astounding 👇 #TraitorTrump

The Trump administration is demanding the home addresses of 700,000 people suspected of being in the country illegally from the IRS. The IRS is resisting this request, as complying would directly violate federal tax privacy laws.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II. Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

These numbers seem important

Anyone paying attention knows that Zelenskyy is grateful and has thanked the American people more than once. Trump wanted more than a thank you. He wanted Zelenskyy to grovel—at his feet.

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.

Trump & Musk recently fired Sam from his dream job as a Park Ranger in Eastern Washington state with no justification. Without people like Sam: trash piles up, our parks are less safe, and less accessible. Share his story.

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

What’s the opposite of a Nobel Peace Prize? I think we have a winner.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating. This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens. (Even better: Tesla will hate this)

Vaccination eliminated measles from the U.S. 25 years ago. But it can still spread in pockets where vaccination rates are low, like the west Texas county with a current outbreak. Here's how fast.

We are shutting down our online store at midnight Eastern in solidarity with the 2/28 Economic Blackout. We’ll be back on 3/1. Also, sorry about the long shipping timeframes and the lack of shirts—we’re working hard to catch up! We use small U.S. suppliers for our products.
