Donald Trump’s firing of military leaders — four-star General Brown and four-star Admiral Franchetti — along with top legal officers is a betrayal of legions of first rate service members who dedicate their lives to our nation’s defense. This is a growing national security risk.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Just like we shouldn’t be firing FAA employees when commercial airliners are flipping upside down.

Elon Musk fancies himself some kind of maverick technologist superhero. But he’s no Tony Stark. He’s PHONY Stark. He’s the one the Avengers defeat at the end of the movie.

As of this morning: Over 206,000 children have benefitted from our nation-leading Child Tax Credit, with nearly $270 million going into the pockets of hardworking Minnesotans.   Let’s keep it going!

MAGA will find out they will be adversely affected by Trump’s actions! Too bad, you were warned but voted for him anyway. #Project2025

For those at the back…

I don’t have kids. I just care about the world and the people who live in it. It’s never wrong to do the right thing.

Fuck Marco Rubio.

AOC: And he is running around because he thinks he got a bank account with a lot of zeros in it that it makes him some kind of super citizen. I don't think so.

NOBODY VOTED FOR MUSK'S LITTLE INTERNET RANDOS, ANY NOBODY SHOULD ACCEPT WHAT THE FUCK THEY'RE DOING.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Worst. Episode. EVER.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

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.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees with General Milley that Americans do not owe our allegiance to a King, Queen, or a wannabe dictator. We owe our allegiance to the Constitution. Fuck the nonsense trump says about being a king.

In the wealthiest nation on earth, 25% of seniors should not be living on $15,000 a year or less. We should EXPAND Social Security, not cut it. I will soon be introducing legislation to significantly raise Social Security benefits and extend the solvency of the program.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Why is the media acting like this is all normal?!

BREAKING: The Senate has just voted to confirm Kash Patel as FBI Director in a narrow 51-47 majority. trump nominee Chris Wray passed 92-5. Only Rand Paul voted against James Comey. Robert Mueller was confirmed 98-0. Patel is historically UNFIT.

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family.   By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

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.

Savage Trump own from Justin Trudeau after Canada beat the US in the Four Nations Face-Off final. Everything Trump Touches Dies. Bravo, Canada! 🇨🇦
