Igor Sushko: The United States appears to be in violation of the Budapest Memorandum which disarmed Ukraine of nuclear weapons in exchange for security guarantees. The agreement signed by the US in 1994 specifically prohibits economic coercion against Ukraine.

🚨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.

Unfortunately I won’t be to DC in time, but this rally for Ukraine is happening in Lincoln memorial. Attend if you can and Slava Ukrainii!

#ProudBlue There are many House Republicans that don't want Medicaid cuts Millions of ppl will die Mike Johnson is obsessed with giving F47 anything but being Speaker means handling the president Reps must care about right and wrong Our job in this climate of injustice is to do the right thing

I apologize for posting this. I now see Snopes says it is false. But it does seem to reflect the silent part.

This took my breath away! It isn’t like I didn’t know, but to see it in writing….

🚨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!

If Elon Musk is serious about identifying fraud in our government spending, then why hasn’t he demanded that private health insurers repay the $50 billion in Medicare Advantage fraud they stole from taxpayers?

Powerful words from my governor!

Please share, and if you can do what she's asking, please do.

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

Why can’t we have nice things? Because a coup is happening and seems we are all just watching it happen. Like, USA! Yea. Heard about that democracy.
