Dems are fighting back in the courts! House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries announced that there are currently more than 20 lawsuits challenging 11 of Donald Trump’s executive orders. More of this!

Week 3- Trump shits the bed again. Creates a crisis bc he can't govern and is a convicted felon with dementia. He caves to Mexico and acts like he won something. He's making new enemies every day.

The world’s richest man who no one elected just walked into the US Treasury, stole your Social Security number, and Trump let him. You deserve to know why this is happening - call your member of Congress and Senators (202) 224-3121 and ask why.

Last year, law enforcement intercepted about 19 kilograms of fentanyl at the US-Canada border. At the southern border, agents seized 9,600 kilograms. The idea that Canada is a major source of drugs is a lie, and this admin is hoping you’re stupid enough to believe it.

At home, Trump has enabled Musk to stage a coup against the government with his army of unvetted stooges taking over the Treasury. Abroad, he's shut down aid & canceled malaria/ HIV programs & put 1000s of lives at risk. Meanwhile, top Democratic leaders are tweeting about egg and priza prices. 😠

The silence of most Republican members of Congress on the Trump tariffs tells you two things: 1. They know it is a terrible idea. 2. They are so afraid of Trump that they won’t say anything even though they know how much it is going to hurt their constituents and the country.

The United States is under attack. Elon Musk—who has been elected to nothing and is a deeply troubled person—is literally destroying our government from the inside and doing so without authority or consent of the governed. Working on a report on this right now. It’s an emergency.

Elon Musk literally bought himself the fucking presidency of the United States of America. And what that UNELECTED fucking psychopath is doing to this country is absolutely batshit motherfucking, game over, in-fucking-sane. So that means that we need to get motherfucking LOUD. Right the FUCK now.

Bodies are still being pulled from the Potomac. The President and extreme MAGA Republicans are blaming women and people of color for the deadly plane crash. At the same time, they are dismantling the Federal Aviation Administration as we know it. Disgusting.

Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him. This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.

As the president delivered remarks blaming the D.C. plane crash on his political opponents and diversity programs, across the Potomac in Arlington, young figure skaters were choking back tears as they laid flowered at a makeshift memorial to three of the dead.

Here's a clip from 2009, when President Obama spoke about the Continental Airlines crash -- the LAST time we had an airline crash with fatalities in America. He didn't blame Bush. He didn't blame Reagan. He just consoled America. A REAL Commander in Chief.

CNN's Jim Acosta signing off: "I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too." I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too. Pass it on.

Democrats in Congress: WHAT IS THE PLAN? Going on Sunday shows and spewing consultant speak isn't going to cut it. Twelve inspectors general fired and there's no sit-in? No filibuster? No direction to voters? And in fact, some of you are actually voting for Trump's agenda?

@marcelias.bsky.social: "There is a reason why Trump nominated Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, Pete Hegseth. He wants to humiliate these Republicans, because he knows that once they have voted for these folks, he will own them. They will not have a shred of dignity or standing left."

Just in case people don’t fully grasp it. The pardoning of insurrectionists is Trump’s way of building loyalty from militias and domestic terrorists to carry out unofficial acts for him

Rep. Jim Himes sounds off on Mike Johnson removing Turner from the House Intelligence Committee. "This place used to be considered a check and a balance on the power of the president. That's why we exist...the message just went out that if you check this president, you're fired" Fascism in action.

Donald Trump hasn't done sh*t to get the hostages released but he's trying to take credit away from President Biden who successfully negotiated the ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel. What a shameful man.

Pathetic little man Donald Trump continues to try to take credit for the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas that he didn't negotiate. Thank you, President Biden for getting it done. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This is not heartening. it's just further proof of Merrick Garland's incompetence. He could have prosecuted Trump in 2021 or 2022. By dragging his feet, he helped bring us here. To hell.

172 hours until the presidential oath is taken by someone who’s virtually certain not to abide by it and who, having broken it before, is an adjudicated insurrectionist whose disqualification under Sec 3 of the 14th Amendment hasn’t been lifted by Congress. But that’s just the U.S. Constitution.

As Trump & his subordinates continue to walk back & renige on one campaign promise after another, MAGA can take comfort in knowing that Trump didn’t mean any of it & was only saying that shit to win the election so he can stay out of prison & further enrich himself & his friends.
