Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Regardless of how much coverage it gets, Trump aiming to install a military command that places loyalty to him above loyalty to the constitution needs to be a much bigger story.

I gifted this so you can read it. DOGE is an absolute joke! If these kinds of mistakes were made in corporate America, or even by real government employees, they would all be fired. The incompetence is simply spectacular! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Sununu urges Zelensky to 'be careful' not to anger Trump: Former New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R) advised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during a recent interview to “be careful” not to anger President Trump. His warning comes as the two leaders have gone tit-for-tat in recent days after…

New Social Security chief was being investigated when Musk team tapped him #StopElonMusk #SocialSecurity www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

A federal judge has blocked the Trump admin from terminating federal grants and contracts related to DEI. The ruling bars Trump from requiring federal contractors and grant recipients to certify that they don't engage in "equity-related" programs, a term the judge found too vague to be enforced.

From this point on, it's up to the next generation to try and fix this shit. It's up to us as parents, teachers and role models to embolden, inspire and instill morality, compassion and strength of purpose in them.

If you hear of any #Iowa U.S. Senator or Congressman holding an in-person town hall, PLEASE SHARE. They are hiding from their constituents and either not holding in-person events or only giving very short notice. We need to get the word out fast when they are announced.

“The CFPB is there to make sure that Elon's new project can't scam you or steal your sensitive personal data...This is like a bank robber trying to fire the cops, and turn off the alarms just before he strolls into the lobby.” US Sen. Elizabeth Warren More here:

The Republican plan is to save you money by getting rid of your rent and mortgage payments because you’re homeless now and the billionaires got your house.

JUST IN: “A federal judge in Maryland on Friday blocked the Trump administration from terminating federal grants and contracts related to DEI as called for in executive orders signed by President Donald Trump.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

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.

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 📢

Judge Ho said NO to DOJ’s attempted corrupt dismissal of Eric Adams’ case. Usually prosecutors and criminal defendants are ADVERSARIES. But because Trump DOJ henchman Emil Bove is on defendant Adams’ side, Judge Ho appointed Paul Clement to be on the side of the American people. Points of light.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

Tonight Trump fired the black general who served as chair of joint chief of staff. And Pete Hegseth fired as Chief of Naval Operations Lisa Franchetti. She made history in 2023 when she became first woman to lead the Navy. Trump is erasing people of color and women. How long will you take this?!

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Please follow and support former Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe — an inspiring representation of our OPPOSITION movement. Earlier this week, Kluwe appeared at a city council meeting in Huntington Beach City, California and exercised his right to peaceful civil disobedience —…

🚨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!

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.

Recognize fascism for what it is. The current administration’s anti-information bent, idiot appointees, and mass firings are all part of the same authoritarian plan. Loyalty cannot come with caveats. He wants simps and sycophants; anyone capable of being more is a threat.

Oh wow. Mitch didn't even vote no.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

🚨Is Musk Using Private Government Data for his AI Company?🚨

Republicans want to kill your grandparents. They want to cut Medicaid by nearly a trillion bucks so billionaires keep more money in their accounts. Medicaid pays for nursing home care.

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

"North Carolina senator Thom Tillis told people that the FBI warned him about 'credible death threats' when he was considering voting against Pete Hegseth’s nomination for defense secretary... "Tillis ultimately provided the crucial 50th vote to confirm." www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

This is nonsense. Nobody in their right mind thinks Adam Schiff is a criminal. The only people that say this are projecting their own criminality. 🦋

"Watch Texas spend more on prisons than it does on schools. Thinking of making your tax structure more regressive? Come to the Lone Star State and see how it’s done."

Governor JD Pritzker is a true leader. We need more governors, mayors, Congresspersons to stand up and shout these messages.

Stew Peters says that Kash Patel was helping him to sue Rolling Stone and during that process, "we directly [texted] via personal cell phones constantly."

If Trump and his gang aren't bound by the law nor the constitution, why are you? Currently the system of checks and balances is being destroyed at a speed that would have launched most countries into riots or open revolt. This is a constitutional crisis and your constitution isn't doing so well.

I wrote about how Project 2025 helped lay the groundwork for Trump's early attacks on worker safety, which will likely accelerate. P2025 proposed that safety regulations be treated as "negotiable" and called for exemptions to OSHA. Also, Trump's pick to head OSHA is a former Amazon & UPS exec.
