John Fetterman’s staff are leaving him in droves and there are awful rumors about how he treats them. Are we sure he’s not just three Kyrsten Sinemas sitting on each other’s shoulders in a hoodie? Our latest:

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

When you fire boatloads of people out of nowhere what do you think the knock on effect is? Unemployment = recession.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are on a rampage with a very specific purpose: To weaken our government's ability to fight oligarchy and autocracy. WATCH:

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Trump Urges Musk to Intensify DOGE Aggression Amid Declining Polls Trump ignores constituent unrest

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

this is from a new report on a “third way” on DEI and it is unbelievably naive, which in my view is emblematic of the author, rich kahlenberg, whose willingness to extend good faith to obvious bad faith actors borders on gullibility www.progressivepolicy.org/a-way-out-of...

National boycott 2/28/25 The Power Of The Purse is yours. Use it.

A MUST-SEE‼️ The PayPal Mafia—Musk, Thiel, Sacks, and Botha—have ties to apartheid South Africa & a hand in US policy and the election. • Elon Musk – Unelected co-president, dismantling the government for his own gain. FUN FACT: His grandfather wanted to scrap democracy for technocrat rule. 🧵

💥 Judge slams Trump's threats against corporations' DEI initiatives: "as the Supreme Court has made clear time and time again, the government cannot rely on the 'threat of invoking legal sanctions and other means of coercion' to suppress disfavored speech." www.justsecurity.org/wp-content/u...

💥 Apple shareholders will vote on Tuesday to uphold the board’s recommendation to continue its diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives (DEI). Look for Apple shareholders to tell anti-DEI activists to take a hike — just as Costco shareholders did by a margin of 98-2 percent.

Join the millions of Americans who are not going to feed the corporations on February 28. We are done with the oligarchs and big corporations taking advantage of the system, of us. Join us in a day without spending! Economic Blackout is February 28th, 2025.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Make it make sense! 🤦🏻‍♀️

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

And it's going to get much worse!

For those at the back…

When the stupid reveals itself..once again.. We don’t do kings, no matter how hard you try, asshole 🖕🏻 #SheShed

Trump’s embrace of Russia is not new. This goes back a long time. It’s just more obvious now.

Love to see it!

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.

We held the floor all night to fight the GOP plan to gut health care to pay for tax cuts for the wealthiest few. Now I'm strategizing with NY labor leaders, healthcare advocates, organizers on how we’re going to keep fighting the GOP plan to help their billionaire buddies. This is for the people.
