Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

AZ AG Kris Mayes: This is a coup by Trump against our Constitution, because they are violating not only the separation of powers but also the court orders We have federal judges saying to Donald Trump and Elon Musk, “Stop this now,” and yet we believe they are violating those orders.

MAGA Republicans really thought town halls would show the country that Americans are behind them. No 💕 Keep these clips coming our way! Hey MAGA: 2026 is coming. 🗳️ We’re voting you TF out.

(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The Daily Beast publishes a sourced allegation that Trump has been a Russian spy since 1987 and then—possibly under some form of threat—deletes it. But in an act of unusual heroism, it left it up long enough for Wayback Machine to capture it text. Here it is (please share):

The nations top research universities (R1) are under assault by the Trump administration. Pitts has paused all PhD admissions for next year. Many R1 schools are also Division 1 NCAA schools. All SEC, Big 10, ACC, Big 12, Ivy League schools. Suspend sports and explain it is due to Musk, Trump

MISSING IN ACTION

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Slashing NIH funding is a direct attack on life-saving research happening in Minnesota and across the country. The Trump administration's proposed cuts would jeopardize breakthroughs in cancer, heart disease, PTSD treatment, and more. We must continue to fight back.

The Dutch know these things first.

Gen-X knows 🤣

Brilliant cartoon. Sad reality!

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Trump’s Pentagon purge has included the top military lawyers. Nobody should be surprised. Dictators politicize the military. Trump wants those with the biggest guns loyal to him, not the Constitution He says he’s demilitarizing it. I call BS. Orwellian to the core. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

$200 million propaganda budget for this one thing. As I said, he plans to weaponize our money and use it against us.

“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.

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)

There’s something happening in this country.

How can DOGE firing over 200,000 people rapidly NOT ruin our nation's economy? If we have 200,000 experienced people -many w/ grad. degrees -who actually LIKED what they were doing- now they all have to find new work?!?! And they are looking for work at same time as college kids and young people?

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Last year Michigan Rep. Tim Walberg wanted to nuke Gaza. Yesterday he decided that if Americans can't afford $200 for a passport as voter ID, they don't deserve to vote. Married women. Adoptees. The poor. 💯 pure evil. Give a listen at 46:25. #SAVEAct youtu.be/0nyXqHWegxs?... h/t Steven Meyer

Military Brass and JAG purge is very ominous

When taking actions late on a Friday night, a government sends a message its trying to pull one over on the public and the media, that it is hiding something or doing something it believes it should not do or will be seen as controversial. That is certainly true in this case.

Don’t get it twisted - Musk sees YOU as the Waste, Fraud, and Abuse when it comes to government spending! For Musk - government spending should only benefit Him, and the wealthy and well connected. They aren’t Tesla ports so they have to go. This is garbage. Tell your reps this is illegal.

Did you know that 72 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for healthcare? The Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans in Congress want to take it away to give tax breaks to billionaires. Don't let them take away our healthcare. Let them know you didn’t vote for this shit.

🚨 Speak up. Spread the word. Stay in the fight.🚨 We won't sit by while Republicans attack the Medicaid you and your loved ones need to survive.

Can't fire them, just like he couldn't fire the head of the Merit Systems Protection Board (who just won a TRO), just like he couldn't fire the Special Counsel to the Office of Special Counsel (who won a TRO). He may try. He won't succeed. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

I was inspired to do a little something, based on a comment @prisonculture.bsky.social made earlier this week, and put together this flyer with federal policy actions that happened this week. I hope people find this useful!

😱

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

The shortest honeymoon in history.

They’re going to try and prosecute their political enemies

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

🚨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!

As the Trump admin attempts to broker a peace deal to end the deadly war between Russia & Ukraine, 8 in 10 Americans say PUTIN SHOULD NOT BE TRUSTED. My bet is that many Trump voters don't know what he's doing. ⏰ Time to drop some truth bombs in our day-to-day lives. thehill.com/policy/inter...

More of this. Do not give in.

Keep pressuring Republicans. Call them. Write them. Visit their district offices.

I was labeled a “conspiracy theorist” and had multiple defamatory hit pieces written about me for making the below observation in the immediate aftermath of the 2016 election. I wish more people had seen it sooner, before it all had time to play out and became too late.

I was fortunate to visit the Anne Frank House when in Amsterdam. It’s an unbelievably moving experience connecting her writing with the feeling in the house. If you have a chance you really should check out this exhibit in NYC.

Here are five questions the public should be asking about the hostile takeover of the National Archives and why the answers matter:
