Sen. Mark Kelly: "I think it's probably the worst 50 days of any presidency I can think of in my life. It's been, you know, pretty much a shit show since day one" Full interview on the MeidasTouch Podcast 👇 Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s... Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/4UCi...

Share if you agree. 🇨🇦 🇲🇽

Some Democratic member of Congress should propose a bill saying that a POTUS may golf at government expense no more than, say, once every 14 days, and must reimburse the Treasury for anything beyond that.

Carney: Canada never ever will be part of America in any way, shape, or form. We didn’t ask for this fight, but Canadians are always ready when someone else drops the gloves.

"In a town with just over 1,000 residents, hundreds of people packed Belmont's Community Building Saturday for a town hall hosted by Democratic Rep. Mark Pocan. The building was filled to capacity with people even waiting outside and peeking through the windows..." www.wkow.com/news/politic...

Nebraska is going to get crushed between Tariffs and Medicaid cuts. They have to balance their state budget and it looks like at least a 200m shortfall this year. BEFORE tariff impacts. And Nebraska Republicans here ! Curious what you think www.1011now.com/2025/03/05/t...

Women don’t wait for change, we make it. We’ve broken barriers, made history, and fought for justice every step of the way. Today, we honor the women who came before us and keep pushing for those who will come after. The fight isn’t over. Let’s get to work.

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America. Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

That is exactly true.

BREAKING: Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk who refused to issue same-sex couples' marriage licenses, loses her appeal at the Sixth Circuit of a lawsuit she lost at trial that was brought by same-sex couples whose constitutional right to marry she violated. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

“This is private, confidential data including Social Security numbers and earnings of virtually all people in the country...” "Federal law restricts access 'to authorized persons and... authorized purposes' such as child support enforcement..." www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

I see tomorrow is Friday. Is Friday going a tariff day, or a some-tariffs day, or a no-tariffs day? Or will it be some other kind of day, like an annex-Greenland day, or a Hannibal-Lecter-wants-to-have-you-for-dinner day, or an Arnold-Palmer-size day, or something else? I just can’t keep track.

BREAKING: The D.C. Circuit grants the Trump administration's request to pause a lower court ruling that ordered the reinstatement of Hampton Dellinger, head of a federal watchdog agency. Trump's firing of Dellinger is now back in effect. More to come.

As you've seen, we're always happy to post announcements for various protests. This one is especially urgent after the news today about laying off 85k VA employees by the end of the year. Please repost this and show up angry for veterans at your state capitols or DC on March 14! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

RM @repmarktakano.bsky.social issued the following statement on VA's plans to cut 83,000 critical staff, threatening healthcare and benefits for millions of veterans. These cuts would roll back the progress of the PACT Act and abandon those exposed to toxic substances.

When America faltered, others stood up to lead.

WATCH: @chadkultgen.bsky.social asks his Newsmax-watching Trump supporter dad who started the war in Ukraine 😕

"VANCE IS A TRAITOR GO SKI IN RUSSIA," #3E #EndImpunity #StandWithUkraine

“DO YOUR JOB!” TEXAS: @RepKeithSelf’s turn

A constituent asks Senator Roger Marshall (R, Kansas) why DOGE is firing so many veterans and the man just runs away. I’ve seen some pathetic behavior in my life but this might get first prize.

Yes

Now THIS is true leadership on the world stage. In stark contrast to the weak, ignorant clown we currently have in the White House. #SlavaUkraini 🇬🇧 🇺🇦

Just posted by President Zelenskyy

"Canada needs to be closer to Europe and the United Kingdom," "We are in a security crisis," - Canada's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mélanie Joly.

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

Per @chrisdjackson.bsky.social on another platform: “It took me 30 seconds to find at least ten postings from Zelensky directly thanking the United States for their support. There are many more. This is pure BS.”

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

NEW: "The Democratic Party is suing President Donald Trump over an executive order that could make it easier for him to tilt elections in the GOP’s favor." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

seems like it is a big deal that the unifying ideology of the doge team is neo nazism

This. Also. @aoc.bsky.social @ericswalwell.bsky.social et al , can you do what ever you guys do in the House to let Musk, Trump and everyone know that the UCFE, which funds unemployment benefits , is in the Dept of Labor. If these funds are cut, the cost will fall on the states.

Count me in, ladies!! 💙💙

⚡️Zelensky calls for creation of 'army of Europe' amid US support uncertainty. "Let's be clear: We cannot rule out the possibility that America may refuse to cooperate with Europe on issues that threaten it," Volodymyr Zelensky said at the Munich Security Conference.
