New accusations emerged that Matt Schlapp, the Conservative Political Action Conference chairman, had groped a man at a bar in Virginia during a gathering of conservatives.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

In 2020, the military was adamant about refusing to get involved in the election. That's why Trump hates General Mark Milley so much. Now, Trump is transforming the military into one that will back him up in 2029. We need to figure out how to prepare for that eventuality.

AZ AG Kris Mayes: This is a coup by Trump against our Constitution, because they are violating not only the separation of powers but also the court orders We have federal judges saying to Donald Trump and Elon Musk, “Stop this now,” and yet we believe they are violating those orders.

Jeffries: Elon Musk has emerged as one of the most unpopular figures connected to the Trump Administration. Trump’s poll numbers are moving in the wrong direction, and it hasn’t even been a month. The real question is: What is the corrupt bargain that has been struck between Trump and Elon Musk?

BREAKING: Donald Trump purged the Military to install loyalists, his Administration suffered a significant loss at the Supreme Court, and Republicans are being held accountable by their constituents. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

NEWS: Right now, Republicans appearing at town halls around the country are being heckled and confronted by constituents. It is likely only just the beginning. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

Trump’s Pentagon purge has included the top military lawyers. Nobody should be surprised. Dictators politicize the military. Trump wants those with the biggest guns loyal to him, not the Constitution He says he’s demilitarizing it. I call BS. Orwellian to the core. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

The DOGE numbers don't add up. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

The family values party.

Road to the VRA: 60 years ago today, Dr. King tells a gathering in Selma of his plan for a march on the state capitol in Montgomery "to tell Governor Wallace we aren't going to take it any more." This, however, not yet a march on foot. Rather, people will travel by car/bus from around the state.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Donald Trump's approval ratings are tanking. As Dan Pfeiffer points out, four new polls show Trump's approval rating sinking into the mid-40s. This quick dip is an accelerated version of what happens to most presidents as their honeymoon with the American people ends.

"The increase to Musk's wealth since Trump was elected president three months ago is greater than all of the American aid given to Ukraine over the last three years."-- @timothysnyder.bsky.social

A former Soviet intelligence officer alleges Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.” Alnur Mussayev served in the 6th Directorate, responsible for counter-intelligence support in the economy. One key objective was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.”

In one of those stories, Naftali Bendavid writes: "To a degree possibly unprecedented in the country’s nearly 250 years, Trump is barreling through the executive branch with the conviction that it is his to rule alone, no matter the laws Congress has enacted."

When billionaires start running government agencies without being elected, that’s not innovation—it’s a coup. Elon Musk’s grip on power isn’t about efficiency, it’s about control. Democracy isn’t for sale.

Can we just seize the Russian assets already and give them to Ukraine? Good lord just do it

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, ProPublica’s analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

Even Fox News is reporting that Donald Trump's approval ratings are tanking. This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

“DON’T BEND OVER!” Atlanta Journal-Constitution (@ajc.com) reporting from a Republican stronghold district in Georgia tonight: Packed room of angry constituents demanding their congressman stand up for them.

83% (!!!) of Americans oppose Trump pardoning violent Jan. 6 rioters, according to a new WaPo/Ipsos poll.

Republicans think gutting the government is just firing ‘Washington bureaucrats.’ But look: this is a small-town paper in New Hampshire, reporting on local forest workers suddenly out of a job for zero reason. These are real people. This is going to backfire, badly.

America does NOT like what Trump is doing.

Republican Senators who voted for RFK Jr. have the best healthcare in the world, paid for by you. They don’t care about what’s going to happen to your kids, your parents, or you.

Is it too much to ask to want the government to stop the president from doing the illegal stuff?

Here’s how many billions Elon Musk’s companies are making from U.S. taxpayers
