It’s not just Space X. Musk was able to save Tesla because of a loan from the Dept of Energy. Here he is in 2013 filled with gratitude for the federal agency & the taxpayers who saved his business. From reporting by @puck.news. airmail.news/issues/2025-...

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands… open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

MUST WATCH: DNC Vice Chair @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social breaks down how Donald Trump's Project 2025 and his lies are affecting hardworking Americans ⬇️

The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Current mood

This man who has so much – Everything. EVERYTHING and ANYTHING. Yet he spends his time taking from those with less – those struggling financially or with their health, to feed his greed and desperate, hungry ego. He is sinister. If allowed, he will completely destroy us.

We held the floor all night to fight the GOP plan to gut health care to pay for tax cuts for the wealthiest few. Now I'm strategizing with NY labor leaders, healthcare advocates, organizers on how we’re going to keep fighting the GOP plan to help their billionaire buddies. This is for the people.

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

He nails it.

Raskin: "So who is leading DOGE? Is it the young man who calls himself Big Balls? Is it the racist on the night crew who's proud of the fact he was a racist before all of his friends were racist, and says we should legitimize Indian hate?"

So Donald will replace the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General CQ Brown Jr., with the lower-ranking and retired Lt. General Dan “Razin’” Caine. Aside from a nickname that means disruptive troublemaker, I wonder what other qualities were deemed more desirable. 🤔🤷‍♂️

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...

Elon Musk is buying Brad Schimel to support big corporations, ban abortion with no exceptions, and take Wisconsin backwards. Susan Crawford is NOT for sale! VOTE Aril 1st!

“It’s getting a little uncomfortable even for me.”— Fuentes reacts to Bannon’s CPAC salute

AOC is spot on! “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.”

This is huge breaking news. Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Chief of Naval Ops, Vice of the Air Force and all three JAG’s of the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Watch this breaking news report we did for @votevets.org tonight. This is outragous. www.youtube.com/live/OdOjEdR...

Once again, Jasmine Crockett brings it home:  We don't win if we don't try, but if we try and we lose, at least we know we tried to make this world a better place .

WATCH Kevin Kiley's face as is booed hard. We need to keep showing up and speaking out!

If you don’t think Trump is taking over the US Mail to do away with mail-in voting, you haven’t been paying attention.

AOC: “Elon Musk is not going after efficiency — he is trying to gut everything good in 🇺🇸 for his own private profit… America is not for sale.” Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGXObpu...

RE: Trump’s Firing of Air Force General C.Q. Brown as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff As commander-in-chief, Trump’s powers to fire or punish military officers are LIMITED BY LAW. www.brookings.edu/articles/doe...

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.

Senator Bernie Sanders lays out exactly what's at stake if Republicans gut Medicaid. #Don'tCutMyMedicaid

Ukraine was warned it faced an imminent shutdown of Elon Musk’s vital Starlink satellite internet system unless it signed the extortion deal on rare earth minerals, Reuters reports.

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

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Is Vladimir Putin calling the shots?

I do not feel safer! Trump and Hegseth are eliminating qualified, experienced leaders to replace them with yes men. Yes, I said men. The misogynist creeps will not be promoting any women.

NEW: Trump’s DoJ Chief of Staff has filed a complaint against Judge Reyes because she bench slapped their bigoted asses into the sun three days ago.

Trump fires Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff CQ Brown www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

Per @phildstewart.bsky.social: “U.S. negotiators pressing Kyiv for access to Ukraine's critical minerals have raised the possibility of cutting the country's access to Elon Musk's vital Starlink satellite internet system, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.”

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

The internal medicine clinic at the Navy’s third largest base in the United States is now staffed with one doctor for 2,200 patients, forcing officials to move one-third of the backlog of cases to medical care off the base.

This is bad. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

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.

BREAKING: The Associated Press sues three Trump administration officials over access to presidential events, citing the First Amendment.

The FDIC protects your hard earn money in the bank and helps prevent another financial crash. Trump and Musk’s move to fire these workers is dangerous. I led Senate Democrats in pushing back, and now independent investigators are on the case.

"This is something that does not belong to the president or the White House. It belongs to the American people.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

As suspected, Gitmo was all for show and an incredible waste of taxpayer dollars.

After learning she was being shadowbanned by Twitter, Grimes deleted her tweet asking Elon Musk to get in touch with her to discuss a medical crises involving one of their children. Meanwhile, Elon was on stage at CPAC playing with a chainsaw.

It's been a crazy week – and Donald Trump is trying to silence journalists who stand up to him. It’s working. Here's the most important thing you missed: youtu.be/4Ch2t4ffc0o?...

Medicaid coverage for virtual visits ends April 1st. As someone who cares for children that live up to 8 hours away, this is DEVASTATING. Children, adults, elderly will all suffer. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES The 5 calls app makes it easy!
