Says the guy who won't even respond to the mothers of his own children

“In some ways that’s even more chilling than firing the four stars,” Rosa Brooks, a professor at Georgetown Law. “It’s what you do when you’re planning to break the law: you get rid of any lawyers who might try to slow you down.” By NYT Greg Jaffe www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

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

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result is demagoguery and corruption.

You should never underestimate anyone. Don't count anyone out

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

👀 NEW: the current under secretary of State for Management, Ambassador Tibor Nagy, has sent an email regarding OPM's request for five accomplishments: "No employee is obligated to report their activities outside of their department chain of command."

They want us to be afraid. They want us to hesitate. They want us to fear their next move. Fuck that shit. We are just getting started fighting.

BREAKING: A MAGA bomb threat issued at the Principles First Summit in DC. I apologize for the language in it.

We make a fatal error agonizing over a lack of leadership in DC. There are some leaders there who we should praise. But people have always been ahead of politicians. Stop fuming and start organizing, marching, helping.

The family values party.

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)

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Ya got to wonder all these Trumpers that voted for this turd are even aware he's never stood in a grocery line and bought bread and eggs . Ever. He's 78.

Feb. 28, buy only from small, independent businesses, not massive companies, especially avoiding Amazon, Walmart & Best Buy. Raise awareness of the enormous power of our collective action & set the stage for bigger future actions. #WeHaveThePower

GOP-led lawsuit that could dismantle disability protections draws public backlash tennesseelookout.com/2025/02/22/g...

If I had to respond to an email as a federal employee asking me what I did at work last week, I'd make sure to list all the duties I had to absorb because of mass illegal firings, followed by a description of what the EPA's Walter Peck did in Ghostbusters.

Always spot on, the redneck liberal nailed it again. Maybe we can laugh a little through our tears. (you can skip to the ad in the middle.)

Are immigrants taking your jobs now? No, it’s DOGE- ELON MUSK AND TRUMP!!!

Every Republican senator is to blame for this. I’m a physician. I PERSONALLY gave 2000 Covid vaccines. My office staff gave more than that. We saw one systemic adverse reaction, maybe 20 or 30 localized reactions. Zero deaths. My husband was an ICU doc. Nearly every Covid death was unvaccinated.

Ex NFL player @chriswarcraft.bsky.social protesting the inclusion of a MAGA acronym in the Huntington Beach library plaque at last night’s council meeting. He was arrested and cited.

I already posted about how Republicans kill children. Here’s how they kill women.

This is absurd. We built this database to stop officers who commit misconduct at one police agency from being rehired at another. It's about transparency and safety -- it helps the hiring agencies and the public. With due process protections. Trump shut it down

"We are in the midst of a global fight between Western liberal democracy and authoritarian government, and in this fight, the United States has just switched sides and signed up with the authoritarian camp." - Francis Fukuyama www.persuasion.community/p/the-ultima...

🚨We’re coming together for an ALL HANDS ON DECK National Organizing Call to support MUST-WIN special elections that will flip the House and stop Trump. If you’ve been feeling powerless recently, this is your chance to take action against Trump. www.mobilize.us/floridadems/...

Protests happen when they happen, if you can only show up on certain days show up on those days, if no protest is available on your dates then organize one, open your own spaces. Protests need to be daily, but not everyone is expected to show up daily. Do what you can when you can. Just show up.

The good news is that he’s not very popular, the bad news is he is very very very very ensconced

One of my best friends and coworkers was told he’s most likely going to be laid off tomorrow because he’s a probationary employee He’s only probationary because he’s a veteran hire and they have a 2 yr rather than 1 yr period He’s the highest performing person here This is so fucking stupid

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.

Tearing apart, the military, the Postal Service, the IRS, the FBI, and every institution in the United States. It’s like watching a loaded Jumbo jet crash into a busy mall in slow motion and you just can’t turn away.

FEB. 28: Avoid purchases from massive companies. Show your power! Post on Bluesky about it! Avg. DAILY revenue?: Target $230 million. Home Depot $400 million. Walmart worldwide $1.77 BILLION. Raise awareness of the massive power of our collective action.

Extraordinary story the Wall Street Journal. X is threatening advertisers that if they don’t spend more, Elon Musk will use his influence in government to block company mergers. That’s extortion.

i absolutely agree with this!!!!! I know i'm not traditionally on the same side as Democrats, but i really agree that Carville is one of the few that really understands what needs to be done in this moment.

Over on Twitter, it looks like AJC reporter @bluestein.bsky.social’s posts, like the one below are being censored or suppressed. I guess Elon doesn’t want anyone to know Americans won’t take Project 2025 lying down. Don’t stop sharing this. ⬇️

Yes!!! Washington DC on 3/14!! Let’s do this, @jessicadenson07.bsky.social together!! United, WE WILL!!! 🇺🇸

This is Arielle Pines. A military spouse who worked in the Dept. of Veterans Affairs for 15 years. She received exceptional performance reviews. She was fired last week as part of Trump’s cuts. She was a “probationer” as she’d transferred to a new office. One story amidst 1000s of lives upended.

In case you're wondering how a goddamn ALABAMAN grand jury decided to suggest closing a police dept, it's because the cops were drug dealers getting high on their own supply, until one of them died overdosing on a mix of "fentanyl, gabapentin, diazepam, amphetamine, carisoprodol and methocarbamol."
