Never forget.

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.

How Hitler seized power: 1. Create a crisis. 2. Demonize opponents. 3. Declare a state of emergency. 4. Undermine elections. 5. Make the rule of law irrelevant. 6. Rule by decree. If America falls it will be because of the people who didn’t pay attention.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children. We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread. www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-m...

I hate the Trump MAGA Republican party with the heat of a thousand suns. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

The air of insanity about all of this is starting to get to me.

Trudeau: "There's not a snowball's chance in hell that Canada will ever be the 51st state"

Mostly agree. Perpetuating the "Palestinians and people in Gaza just randomly attacked Israel for no reason whatsoever on Oct 7th" is an oversimplification of reality and untrue. What’s Most Frightening About Trump’s Gaza Ravings www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/o...

This says it all

Never thought I'd see the USA instigating ethnic cleansing. Shameful and horrifying

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

Egg prices are surging, gas prices are up, and planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. And this is what the White House is focused on.

Trump hopes Americans don’t realize what the CFPB does. So I wrote this piece on why CFPB exists, the billions it has saved us, & why dismantling it devastates working people. This is class warfare & we cannot afford to lose. No paywall. Please read & share: www.qasimrashid.com/p/cfpb-is-su...

"The administration's stance is that by electing him president, the country gave Trump total authority to do anything he’d like. But that justification renders Congress superfluous. Why go through the charade of making policy and negotiating budgets if POTUS can just ignore laws when he wants to?"

If Musk compromises the Social Security Administration in any way, millions of Americans could miss their checks. If Elon is all about transparency, he should drop by House Oversight and tell the American people why he's messing with their social security. www.semafor.com/article/02/0...

The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down an agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. https://buff.ly/42NeEl6

this is the sort of thing you post when you’re ramping up to defying lawful court orders

JD Vance, a Yale Law graduate, doesn't understand Marbury v. Madison, the most famous case in Constitutional law, which established judicial review of the other two branches of government.

Excellent. One would think this coming from a judge appointed by Ronald Regan would realize Trump only pretends to be a Republican

Trump's a petty little...

Another MAGA J6 ‘Patriot’ to add to the list going back into jail.

This aged well.

Senator Raphael Warnock goes off on Republicans for being "silent while this new administration breaks the law." "I don't work for some oligarch threatening to run for my seat or run somebody for my seat. I work for the people of Georgia." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Around 35% of SpaceX’s revenue comes directly from the federal govt. Less than 1% of NPR’s budget comes from the federal govt.

Trump has evicted former Coast Guard Commandant Linda Fagan a star admiral from her home with 3 hrs of notice Border security & an “excessive focus” on diversity, equity are inclusion among the reasons cited for her dismissal. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

On Tuesday, Donald Trump declared that the two million Palestinians in Gaza should be forced out of the Strip. Even if it isn’t more than a provocation, there will be a price for his madness, David Remnick writes. nyer.cm/dqPZx34

My Democratic colleagues just tried to subpoena unelected billionaire Elon Musk, but House Republicans blocked it. We must hold Elon Musk accountable, especially since my Republican colleagues are complicit in these assaults on our government.

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

She's not wrong.
