I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

If you support this, you’re an awful human being

Associated Press sues White House over ban from Oval Office and Air Force One www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

All I can say at this stage is… FINALLY! 💥

President Donald Trump said on Friday he was considering merging the U.S. Postal Service with the U.S. Commerce Department, a move Democrats said would violate federal law. "We're thinking about doing that, and it'll be a form of a merger." "It's just been a tremendous loser for this country."

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

It’s very simple. #DontAbandonUkraine

I wonder what would happen if @wyden.senate.gov @murray.senate.gov asked GAO to investigate whether DOGE's "receipts" claiming savings amounts to fraud. Honestly, it's the only fraud found so far. www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

Hey congressional Republicans, still waiting for you to announce how much you’re cutting from congress’ own $6.5 billion budget….

Guys it's been one hell of a day here at the good ole IRS. Need some time to process and to reach out to friends and family affected by the terminations this week. We don't know how many we lost or when this will end. Take care of yourselves, and be kind to the people hurting. We are all Americans.

FEDS, ALERT!!! Print all your SF50s or similar for your agency. Make sure you have your EOD date Get at least 1 month of earning statements. Print at least 3 performance evaluations If you can get your drop file.l, and a copy of your OPM file if you can.

Hey. You should text/call/voice-note some friends just because. Don't just DM silly videos. Check in with them. We all need some genuine connection right now!

I Stand With Ukraine 🇺🇦

To be clear, “Protests are useless” and “there is no point” commenters / trolls will be muted, repeated instigators will be blocked. 0 tolerance for bike shedding and concern trolling.

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

Connolly: "The fallacy of Musk's argument is they never look at revenue. They only look at expenditures. If you want to save social security, it's a fairly easy fix. Raise income threshold subject to withholding tax & you can extend social security by 40 to 50yrs. He doesn't want to talk about that"

⚡️Tusk proposes 3-point plan to strengthen Ukraine, European security. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk on Feb. 20 proposed a three-point plan to strengthen Ukraine in its fight against Russia's full-scale invasion and enhance European security.

Apparently, the only mammals in America who haven't discovered Ozempic are leopards.

Crockett on Trump's relatively high approval: We've gotta do better at education. People don't understand. But you will understand when your Medicaid goes away. You will understand when planes continue to fall out of the sky... maybe Sleepy Joe is what we wanted, bc we could at least sleep at night.

Here at the Health & Human Services (HHS) rally in Washington, DC, to support our federal workers! Interesting chant from the crowd. “Hey, hey, RFK! We remember JFK!” Rep. Jamie Raskin spoke first and compared JFK’s championing of science & human rights to RFK’s anti-science stance.

“At least Russia has elections” Russia frequently jails and kills any opposition to Putin, who has been in power since 1999. If you like dictatorships, that’s fine. Just admit that. Don’t insult anyone’s intelligence—including your own—by claiming Russia has real elections.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

"working to swiftly rectify the situation..." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

If our Atlantic allies really want to both establish their security independence from the U.S. and send a message to Washington that its betrayal of the alliance it helped build will come at a cost DC will notice...stop buying from the US defense industry.

To understand the reactions to my most recent article, it’s already in there: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

Zelenskyy: "I will never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia about Ukraine. Never."

🇺🇦 Ukraine : des dirigeants européens seront à Paris lundi pour une «réunion de travail», confirme le ministre français des Affaires étrangères 🗣️ Emmanuel Macron «réunira les principaux pays européens pour des discussions portant sur la sécurité européenne», a déclaré Jean-Noël Barrot.

This is fascism.
