"Transparency."

If the market continues to trend down, and the Atlanta Fed turns out to be right, the midterms will be very interesting. The battle between republican self preservation and MAGA will be intense

NEW: The Elias Law Group filed paperwork Thursday seeking permission for the North Carolina Alliance for Retired Americans, VoteVets Action Fund, and three individual voters to intervene in Appeals Court proceedings. The same groups have been taking part in the case in federal court.

If you’re at home today, not spending money, and feeling bored, you might be wondering, “What could I do?” Well, task one: you can make random reports on this website: enddei.ed.gov

Trump and Elon Musk have wiped out the national database of police misconduct. Nearly 150,000 records of misconduct by federal officers erased, like it never happened.

Agree on the town halls! I live in a red state with low wages, poor education systems, limited opportunity and lots of MAGA. I truly feel Republicans made them feel like part of something and Democrats ignored them! There was no outreach in this state. The ground game was conceded 😢.

Agree! @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social fight or step down! We need the toughness of @jasmineforus.bsky.social , @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , @aoc.bsky.social. I have seen nothing from you!

Agree!

Congrats, everyone—the Elon boycott is working! Reports indicate that Tesla inventory is swelling, especially with Cybertrucks piling up outside their factory. Keep the boycott going, and don’t forget—today is the Economic Blackout!

The USA: hold my beer

Trump is too much of a coward to say a bad thing to Putin, yet he dares lecture Zelensky? Russia is on the verge of collapse and Trump/Vance are desperate to save them

TODAY…

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

#HailToZelensky #SheShed

Yes!

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

You know what to do. enddei.ed.gov

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Repost & like, if you stand with President Zelensky!

#IStandWithZelenskyy 🇺🇦 Pass it on.

Actual question from reporter: "Why don't you wear a suit?" Ukrainian President Zelenskyy: "I will wear costume after this war will finish."

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 ✊

We are shutting down our online store at midnight Eastern in solidarity with the 2/28 Economic Blackout. We’ll be back on 3/1. Also, sorry about the long shipping timeframes and the lack of shirts—we’re working hard to catch up! We use small U.S. suppliers for our products.

Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

CNN poll: - 55% believe Elon Musk has too much power in government. - 3% believe Elon Musk has too little power. * the 3% have been identified as Elon Musk and every woman he has tried to naturally impregnate.

My husband @robertcooper-us.bsky.social and I were the FIRST gay couple to adopt children in the US, way back in 1985. We went on to adopt five wonderful kids — all adopted at birth. They’ve grown so much! Here’s a pic from our wedding in 2000, and a recent one including their significant others. ❤️

NEWS The FDA, which operates under the authority of Robert Kennedy Jr., canceled the meeting to discuss next year’s flu vaccines. This could interfere with or delay production of flu vaccines. 86 children and 19,000 adults have died from flu this season. About 430,000 people were hospitalized.

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”? But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"? Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

#Ohio Reps: • Troy Balderson #OH12 • Mike Carey #OH15 • Mike Turner #OH1 Voted to throw 3M Ohioans off their health care, tossing 6 in 10 nursing home patients to the curb while keeping their own gold level taxpayer funded health insurance program #OHpol #DontCutOurMedicaid

This news truly breaks my heart. We are calling on HHS to take immediate action. Secretary Kennedy needs to bring back weekly measles tracking from the CDC, rehire the health experts, and roll out a serious vaccine campaign. Our kids' safety is on the line! abcnews.go.com/Health/1st-m...
