It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

He nails it.

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

There were more plane crashes during his first month in office than in the entire previous four years.

Who voted for this guy?

Hey Crew. Keep an eye on the USPS stories. A disruption here affects thousands of loyal employees and hundreds of thousands of small to mid-size businesses. I know we have disruption happening in many places, but this one would have disastrous consequences in every neighborhood across the country.

In blatant disregard for our local economy, Republicans are firing essential workers at parks that were already short-staffed. Our community thrives on tourism dollars. Wages are already tight in this housing market. This is directly hurting families. www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

BREAKING😡: Trump & Putin are set to meet in Moscow on May 9th, Russia’s Victory Day. Let me spell it out for you: An American “president” is flying to Russia to celebrate with Putin while Ukraine is still bleeding and Europe is on edge.

This article from Politico Magazine on Trump's first visit to what was then the USSR is most fascinating. It provides some gripping insights into the KGB leadership's thinking, Trump's motivations for making the trip, and how he got played like a cheap violin. 🤨 www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

Who will answer?

DOGE's "savings" is like saying, "I've saved hundreds of dollars by never changing the oil or replacing the brakes in my old car."

Firing the Joint Chief Chair and replacing him with an under-qualified white man is the definition of unfair preferential hiring practices. It’s why they hate DEI so much, they see it as their invention being used against them

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

Do Something Again braving the cold a peaceful protest is scheduled We have to stand up for our rights Bring attention to the biggest problems Write to Congress, call them too Put the pressure on We need to do what we can Our lives depend on it

I will never forget the chill I felt when I heard him say this! Remember the wall to wall media coverage of it? Yeah, me neither🤬

Swalwell speaks Truth

Trump’s betrayal of Americans: He promised not to cut Medicaid—now he’s backing a House plan that slashes $880 billion from it. All to fund $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich. He doesn’t care if families drown in debt, as long as he & his billionaire buddies get richer. Don’t Cut My Medicaid!

"Given Trump’s history of soliciting election interference and the ties between Trump and Russia in 2016, there certainly should be an investigation of whether Trump’s campaign knew about the bomb threats beforehand, or was involved in coordinating them."

JUST A REMINDER…👇 Pass. It. On. ✨

A federal judge has blocked President Trump’s executive order that aimed to end government support for programs promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. Both liberal and conservative federal judges are standing against violations of the Constitution. apnews.com/article/dei-...

I hope the rest of the world wakes up to this quickly. Trump will side with Putin against our allies and the free world. The US is going to the dark side and can no longer be trusted to defend democracies or keep our commitments. This is sad and shameful, but obvious and inevitable.

This BETTER OUTRAGE EVERYONE DO YOU KNOW HOW HELPFUL AND NECESSARY THESE VISITS ARE??? CALL YOUR CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENTATIVES 202 224-3121 THIS IS WRONG !!!

Illinois Governor Pritzker compares Trump to the Nazis Great speech. I think we just found the leader of the resistance.

Even Murdoch is pointing out that Trump is a Useful Idiot www.alternet.org/putin-is-the...

Way down we go…

Flashback: Arnold Schwarzenegger has a message for the Russian people: “My father was a Nazi. Don't be like him. Putin is a fascist dictator like Hitler. Don't believe his lies. Don't follow his illegal orders. Don't participate in the illegal war against the people of Ukraine.”

Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe calls MAGA a "Nazi movement" and gets arrested. Democracy won't survive without people willing to stand up for it.

And who they didn't like

Makes one want to dash out and buy one? thedeepdive.ca/tesla-leads-...

No paywall: world wide devastation happening now.👇 “Kenya: H.I.V. and tuberculosis treatment The U.S.A.I.D. freeze has devastated tuberculosis and maternal H.I.V. programs at the Mathare North Health Center, which serves some of Nairobi’s poorest.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/o...

Folks, get mad and stay mad. Republicans have the power to stop a lot of Trump's bullshit but they will only do it if they fear for their seats.

A Virginia court will hear a lawsuit today seeking to block DOGE's access to sensitive Treasury Department data. Plaintiffs say DOGE has "exceeded the scope of their legal authority[.]" Read the lawsuit: https://www.democracydocket.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12025-02-10-Complaint-2.pdf
