As a veteran, this one yanked my crank.

CALIFORNIA: Rep. @JayObernolte (R) becomes the latest to hear from the people 🇺🇸 🔥 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGZ0d7B...

This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

If you design a tv to be hung on a wall, can you put the hdmi, etc sockets near the outer edge rather than the middle of the back please!?

I am grateful that so many people found my open letter to Elon Musk moving and want to share it. Some well meaning people are just cutting and pasting it on their social media feeds. I would appreciate it if people would link to the version posted on @democracydocket.com instead. Thanks. Marc

Minnesota Senator Tina Smith bringing the thunder 🔥

💥The Netherlands' largest pension fund, has sold its shares in Tesla, Meta, and Alphabet (Google). The fund with US $569 billion equivolent in assets is "directing more money to companies and projects that help to improve society and the environment." #Divest www.reuters.com/markets/euro...

Donald Trump’s dog shit “Meme Coin” that was worth $60 on inauguration day….is now “worth” $16. Pump and Dump, to fleece the dipshits. Gets them every time.

Will you look at that? COSTCO didn't roll back DEI, and store traffic increased by: 5.8% on the week beginning January 27, 5.7% on the week beginning February 3, 4.6% on the week beginning February 10 Sources: Fortune and Retail Brew

A Trump supporter who was fired from the IRS, told NBC10 he didn’t see this coming from Trump: “I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason"

He nails it.

Unlike Twitter , @bsky.app has a public firehose that anyone can analyze. The numbers I posted aren’t from bluesky. They are from their party software. If you look at the post, it shows posts, follows, likes. All are real. That’s real transparency

Keep at it

Do you make less than $360,000 a year? Your taxes are about to go UP. And you have Trump, Musk, and the Republicans to thank for it.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Wise man…

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Tuberville was denial of unanimous consent

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Hegseth fired Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first female officer to rise to the Navy’s top job of Chief of Naval Operations. Trump fired Gen. Charles Brown Jr., a four-star fighter who became only the second African American to hold the job of Joint Chiefs Chairman. A Black man and a woman.

The DOGE team's "wall of receipts" has as many holes as Trump's wall on the Mexican border.

Why would anyone who is a patriot and loves this country do this? Because Trump isn’t a patriot and doesn’t love this country. And together we must stop him.

So DOGE's 'wall of receipts' is riddled with errors, falsehoods and distortions. big shock. about what you'd expect from 6 tech bros dragged over from the strip club www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

A deep dive into DOGE data discovers a disturbing directory of discrepancies, distortions, delusions, and deception. Dismal. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

U.S. military leadership must speak out firmly against the growing political instability in this country, and Trump’s efforts to build praetorianism within our government. Trump’s ultimate goal is authoritarian rule.

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

Be clear about what you are seeing. The firing of these senior officers has nothing to do with competence. This is creating an oath of loyal by the Armed Forces to the Leader. We face an uncertain future.

House Republicans who were willing to hold town halls back home this week got an earful. At events from Georgia and Wisconsin to Oklahoma and Oregon, many of them faced hostile crowds furious about the sweeping budget cuts & mass firings of federal workers that Trump and Musk’s DOGE is carrying out.

As someone who sat through more than one hostile town hall in WI where tea party activists berated my then-boss about Obamacare, and I occasionally feared for my physical safety, I find these video clips so cathartic to watch.

What's the difference between firing someone "for DEI" and firing them because they are Black?

"The Associated Press sued three Trump administration officials Friday over access to presidential events, citing freedom of speech" The president set a precedent by banning them for not writing"Gulf of America"and they rightly want that precedent overturned apnews.com/article/ap-l...

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

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...

Here’s the hard truth: this country’s people are tired of subsidizing billionaires. Want your cars to sell? Do it without subsidies. Want to shoot rockets into space? Get by without govt contracts. Want to build a website? Build your own internet first. We are DONE with you.

swear to god if this were a movie script the studio would send notes back saying "tone it down, no one's gonna buy this"

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

🚨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!

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.
