The Homeland Security secretary said tonight that Trump told her to film ads that “thank me for closing the border.” DHS has budgeted up to $200 million for its anti-immigration ad campaign. w/ @swin24.bsky.social @rollingstone.com www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

BETRAYAL LOOKS LIKE THIS #FUCKTRUMP

These people all have actual conflicts of interest that should keep them from working on any investigations like this. It's a measure of how tainted and corrupt this Justice Department is becoming and it breaks my heart. I hope it doesn't break our country. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Claudette (Austin) Colvin, born September 5, 1939 was arrested 9 months before Rosa Parks for not giving up her seat in Montgomery,AL. She has said, "Young people think Rosa Parks just sat down on a bus and ended segregation, but that wasn't the case at all." #CelebrateBlackHistory

He nails it.

I know the angry town halls don’t seem productive, but they make a substantial difference, both now and down the line.

It’s wild to me that anybody old enough to remember the Tea Party might think that angry town halls don’t have an effect

Don’t be a nice person…

Stephanie Kelton - "We can, and must, tax the rich. But not because we can't afford to do anything without them. We should tax billionaires to rebalance the distributions of wealth and income and to protect the health of our democracy" France to introduce a 2% wealth tax on those worth over €100m.

🤣🤣🤣

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.

#ProudBlue Good morning, friends. These are very difficult and stressful times, we have a lot at stake. Please take time for yourself and hold on to those you love. We can’t let hate destroy us, do something this weekend that brings you joy. Love, smile and breathe 💙

#ProudBlue FOTUS and his buddy Elon are having a great time cutting our democracy to shreds. This is criminal and Americans are suffering for it. They are going after Medicaid and you can bet Social Security and Medicare won’t be far behind. We have the stupid MAGAs to thank for this, FAFO, idiots!

#ProudBlue 👇and I never will.

#ProudBlue Will this be the new emblem of Amerika? It’s getting worse here by the day!

We received an email this afternoon saying that no one will be DOGE’d today or this weekend but if you’re a probationary employee (less than a year) expect it next week. Note: we teach mid-career officers. Probationary means people w/20+ yrs experience.

In other words: if you participated in the insurrection, you now get a pass on your other crimes that were discovered while you were being investigated for insurrection. For immigrants, the law. For my supporters, everything. apple.news/ATiXJFDLmQlm...

A new bat coronavirus that has the capacity to spread to humans, similar to the one that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, has been discovered by a Chinese researcher. Good thing we are completely prepared this time. www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

Somehow many people I know will say this is exactly what they voted for.

Speaking personally but within my professional expertise... yes. Firing generals over politics, or for merely obeying the orders of the previous President, is a terrible precedent, weakens the military, and starts a dangerous cycle.

I wrote angry about the purging of the US military. saideman.blogspot.com/2025/02/why-...

Every senior officer serves at the pleasure of the President, but Trump and Hegseth’s firing of CJCS Chairman General Brown will reflect badly on the civilian leadership, not on the military.

Firing General Brown and Admiral Franchetti is not a complete surprise to civmil watchers, but pulling this guy from retirement for chairman definitely is It’s a strong signal that promotion to top positions will require complete ideological conformity from here on out

I guess she should have commanded three CSGs. Just kidding — nothing will ever be good enough.

Black History Month Stories. Today we stick with our "women running mail" theme from yesterday's story and celebrate the first Black woman to make officer in the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps who went on to command an all-black postal battalion overseas. This is the story of Charity Adams Earley.

Wow. What a reply!
