But they support our veterans…right.

Congrats to Trump’s new picks for top military posts for meeting the job description. You don’t have to say yes, you know.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

Donald Trump — The House resolution "implements my FULL America First Agenda, EVERYTHING, not just parts of it." The House plan slashes $880 billion from Medicaid—TRUMP OWNS THIS!!! Democrats need to speak out now—LOUDLY. Don’t Cut My Medicaid 📢

The Pentagon will fire 5,400 civilian workers next week.

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.

Narrator: He cut them. abcnews.go.com/Politics/joh...

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.

This is Elon's plan. I'm not sure if Trump realizes it or not.

wait this can't be right, we have two business geniuses at the helm

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

Our nation is sick—and dying

Todd Blanche, Trump’s criminal defense lawyer, promised he would follow the advice of career ethics officials at the Department of Justice. Then they fired the career ethics officials. Piece by piece they are destroying the Justice Dept. And any hope of justice along with it.

These felons belong in jail.

“So Elon Musk killed this program for disabled kids (illegally) because it included the word ‘transition.’ It helps them to transition from high school to work.” H/T @palafo.bsky.social, who posted the above on another platform.

The wealth of Dr. Mehmet Oz, the celebrity heart surgeon nominated by Trump to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, has swelled in part from for-profit health care companies over which he’d wield significant power if confirmed. apnews.com/article/mehm...

MARYLAND: “The Maryland National Guard will not participate in the parade honoring abolitionist Frederick Douglass due to guidance set by (Trump’s) Department of Defense.” www.wmar2news.com/local/maryla...

They tell themselves it can’t happen here. That the courts will save us, that institutions will hold, that this is just another election. But history doesn’t wake the sleepwalkers gently. It shatters them.

This is the plan. They’re destroying our institutions to award the oligarchs Govt contracts to privatize/monopolize services. They’re destroying our economy, workers protections, grocery prices, housing mkt and medicine… What competition will they have when we are poor, sick and in their need?

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

Women are dying and the "pro-life" GOP doesn't care.

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

Just more proof that this Administration doesn’t care if we survive it…

BREAKING: Gov. Hochul will NOT remove Mayor Eric Adams. Add another name to the list of Gutless Cowards.

They’re going to try and prosecute their political enemies

WE ARE NOT SAFE!!!!!! An inexperienced unqualified alcoholic abuser is leaving the door wide open for another 9/11. BE SCARED!!!! 😱

This is not about efficiency. Giving federal employees purchase cards saves money - it reduces layers of paperwork and red tape. Imagine running a business where you stopped employees from purchasing anything. The goal is to shut down government by other means.

NY law firm Sullivan & Cromwell is enthusiastically joining Donald Trump's effort to undermine the justice system. It’s sad to see a firm clients have long turned to for counsel on how to comply with the law rendering itself into an instrument for promoting lawlessness, I diacuss in PN.

🚨 BREAKING: Joint Chiefs Chairman CQ Brown is on the list of officers submitted to Congress—signaling that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth could fire him, officials say. Are you surprised that Hegseth might target the highest-ranking Black officer in the military? I’m not.

The Trump/GOP “Big Beautiful Bill" in question: — Cuts to Medicaid, which will rip health care away — Cuts to SNAP, which will strain food assistance — Gives more $$$ to billionaires like Elon We need 3 House Republicans to stop this disastrous bill.

The next Democrat that plans to run for President needs to start doing the job now. Lead the party well and strong, and the job will be yours.

NIH layoffs. FAA layoffs. FDA layoffs. USAID dismantled. America isn’t just losing workers—it’s losing safety, science & stability. Jen Rubin argues the sooner Americans grasp the damage, the sooner Republicans feel the heat. Ignore it, and they’ll face a voter backlash.

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

Russia launched an unprovoked full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February of 2022. Since then, thousands of Ukrainians have perished. Entire towns and cities reduced to rubble. It will take them decades to recover, if at all. For Trump to casually flip the narrative via tweet is beyond disgusting.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Biden capped insulin and inhalers at $35/month. Republicans saw that and said, “No, let’s make sure people suffer.” You can’t make this shit up.

Translation: Trump has offered the United States to the Saudis for 1 Trillion Dollars.

Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, just 11 years old, “took her own life in Texas after she was tormented by classmates who threatened to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) authorities and have her family deported from the US, her grieving parents have said.” www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

CNN Made FOIA Request About DOGE—Only to Learn FOIA Staff Was Fired "Definitely never seen this type of response to a FOIA request," quipped one journalist. www.commondreams.org/news/cnn-foi...

This is Luke Farritor. He is the 23 year old that fired all the staff in charge of our nuclear arsenal. Don't worry, though. He completed an internship with SpaceX, so I'm sure he is clearly qualified to determine whether our nuclear arms should be adequately staffed by qualified persons. 🤯🤯🤯

Trump is a Russian stooge. Putin may as well written this himself. And any Republican in Congress who said they support our allies before, but are silent today over this, are worthless.

GOP Senators and House members are scared of being murdered by Trump supporters if they don’t support Trump. This is fascism in America. My latest: www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

Democrats, ARE YOU LISTENING???

In 1999, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., then an environmental lawyer, was named by Time magazine as a “hero of the planet” for his pioneering work to clean up America’s waterways. On his second day as secretary of the DHHS, he ended HHS funding for health and climate change.
