Worst. Episode. EVER.

Timothy Snyder is an expert of modern authoritarianism.

Here’s what Democrats did today (February 20):

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

“.. the share of Americans who think the economy is on the wrong track rose to 53% in the latest poll from 43% in the January 24-26 poll.” @reuters.com www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Here’s what Democrats did today and over the long weekend (February 18):

Republicans are introducing a bill to raise your bank fees. The legislation would roll back President Biden’s rule that capped overdraft fees at banks and credit unions. This would be a major gift for big banks and billionaires.

This is my “daughter of a Black Panther breakfast program volunteer” coming out but anyone who tells you that you have to be public about all your resistance activity should immediately be under suspicion for being an op, or being under the influence of an op

The Trump administration is balancing the budget on the backs of veterans.

🚨 Your House representative is now back home through February 23. That’s where we come in. With Trump and Elon Musk pulling off a billionaire coup in real time, this congressional recess is about turning up the heat like never before. Let’s get to work: indivisi.org/muskorus

Reminder: Black history offers many examples of fighting authoritarianism, so one doesn't always have to look to Europe. Nazi lawyers looked to Jim Crow for inspiration for their racist laws. Read as much about struggles against Jim Crow as you do about other examples of resisting authoritarianism

The Department of Government Efficiency is ransacking multiple federal agencies, without oversight or safeguards, and EFF is glad to join the brigade of lawsuits to protect this critical information.

Here’s what Democrats did today and over the weekend (February 10):

Millions of Americans’ health insurance is at risk because of Donald Trump and Republicans.

China is now taxing billions of dollars of US imports starting today in response to Trump's erratic tariffs. This will raise Americans’ prices, hurt small businesses, and cost American jobs.

Here’s what Democrats did today (February 11):

Head of DOGE Elon Musk has received a new $38,858,978 government contract for his company SpaceX. Musk is self-determining his own conflicts of interest.

🤔

This is the official rapid response page of the Democratic Party, holding Trump and MAGA extremists accountable. Welcome to FactPost.

Since MSM won't report this, here's what Democrats did today.

Conservative billionaires are funding a coordinated effort to dismantle public education to pay for private school vouchers that largely benefit wealthy families and enable corporations to avoid their fair share in taxes. Now they have a friend in the White House.

Fact check: True

Jacobs: It's so funny to me that my colleagues on the other side spent 30 minutes talking about how we don't want unelected bureaucrats making these rules when they're literally allowing a unelected Elon Musk run roughshod over congress' power of the purse

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

Extreme MAGA Republicans spent last year promising to lower costs. And lying about their connection to Project 2025. They have spent this year implementing the extreme Project 2025 agenda. And haven’t done a damn thing to lower the high cost of living.

The world in 2025. Hundreds of thousands of Germans oppose neo-fascism. The top aide to the president of the United States supports it. apnews.com/article/germ...

Chris Murphy: "I think this is the most serious constitutional crisis the country has faced, certainly since Watergate. The president is attempting to seize control of power, and for corrupt purposes ... he's trying to crush his opposition ... this is a red alert moment ... our democracy is at risk"

i wonder why these guys hate the CFPB so much ohh

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

This is HUGE. We should be hearing an urgent alarm on every network from the Ranking Democrat on the Oversight Committee, Rep. Gerry Connelly. Or just let @aoc.bsky.social do it. But DO IT!

More relevant than ever
