Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

“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.

Mark Cuban dropped a bomb: Elon Musk isn’t wrecking Tesla’s brand by mistake—he’s after something bigger. Controlling a president is worth more to him than selling EVs. Power corrupts, but absolute power? That’s intoxicating.

America got rid of kings in 1776—looks like Trump missed the memo. Posting a royal cosplay from an official gov't account isn’t just embarrassing, it’s a warning. Leaders serve the people, not the other way around. But hey, if he wants to play dress-up, maybe he should try court jester instead.

Trump just fired 6,700 IRS workers who chase billionaire tax cheats. Yep, billionaires dodge taxes, YOU get stuck with the bill—cuts to Medicaid, food aid, higher costs. Trump's America: rich win, you lose. accountable.us/watchdog-tru...

Remember when Trump promised not to cut health care? Now he's backing $880B in GOP cuts to Medicaid & ACA. Millions could lose care. Another broken promise hurting everyday families—just to help the rich. accountable.us/icymi-trump-breaks-budget-promise-endorses-dramatic-medicaid-cuts/

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

These absolute morons are going to destroy the United States. If you’re in favor of the US leaving NATO, you either don’t want the US to succeed, or you don’t know wtf NATO does. Worth noting that Mike Lee voted to expand NATO in 2022.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

If making America great again requires you to pay more for everything, lose your retirement savings, work more for less pay, be unable to afford health insurance, become an indentured servant to the oligarchs, maybe you were better off with the no so great version.

Trump has illegally frozen USAID funds, forced layoffs, sidelined & silenced staff, & hollowed out the agency—now rumors are he wants to unilaterally eliminate it. These harmful moves undermine our national security because when America steps back, our adversaries will step in.

Trump is carrying out his war against our justice system & our top law enforcement agency. He’s hallowing out the DOJ & FBI. For pure revenge, he’s firing career prosecutors & agents. His unlawful retribution will make America much less safe. This is a Constitutional crisis.

In 2014 Dutch scientists left a hamster wheel outside, to see if wild animals would use it like their domesticated counterparts. The answer: hell yes! 734 visits from wild mice - plus rats, shrews, slugs ("running" being subjective here) & even frogs and snails. The apparent reason: fun. Just fun.

Republicans, who were outrageous that Michelle Obama made part of her platform healthy school lunches praised RFK Jr.’s views that diet is a root cause of chronic disease. The performative insincere outrage couldn’t be more obvious yet somehow they get away with it time and time again.

Indeed, hideously and tragically, a significant percentage of the electorate has openly and explicitly aligned itself with ignorance, hatred; and bigotry as an organizing principle. That’s the meaning of the result of the presidential election in November. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I’d like to see every Democrat in power organizing right now—not tomorrow, right now—speaking to lawyers, working with every elected official or person with platform they know, making a plan to respond with the entire force of their office. And ready to explain it to their constituents and a camera.
