The media showed every Trump rally but won’t show a single Bernie Sanders rally. Now that we control the biggest independent news network in America we will flip the script and show every Bernie Sanders rally, like the last one on Sunday in Altoona, Wisconsin youtu.be/2StnaGCQPCI?...

Trees mean a great deal to me and I’ve always felt a strong connection to them. These are some of my favourite trees from over the years. #photography

Setting aside the incredibly dangerous and fascist aspect of this, is there actual evidence that Khalil was a “Hamas supporter”? Or is the standard for a green-card holder being sent to a secret location and possibly deported just “critical of Israel”?

Check out Victor Klemperer's book -- Lingua Tertii Imperii: Language of the Third Reich. He was a professor at Dresden University & ousted for being a Jew. He documented the change of the language during the reign of the Third Reich. We have reached the same nexus.

I thought I should let you all know what is going on over at Twitter ASAP Spread the word: Elon Musk is indeed deportation-eligible

Fascism is here. The list of words Trump is banning from government is the most stunning document of our time. Click the image below to see how many words Trump and Musk have canceled as part of their new Reich. 🔗: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Judge Crawford: I think that is exactly why Elon Musk is spending millions of dollars on these phony attack ads against me and trying to get Brad Schimel on the Supreme Court. We need to have a Wisconsin Supreme Court that’s working for the people of Wisconsin, not one that is working for Elon Musk

The possibility of lower US economic growth is now the talk of the town, amplified by this weekend’s remarks from high-level officials As you would expect, the market impact so far this early morning in Asian trading includes lower oil prices,negative stock futures, lower yields,and a weaker dollar.

That's a lot of money

As Orwell predicted.

A DOGE staffer reportedly showed up at the IRS demanding info on American taxpayers. His wife “spent three years at GVA Capital, which was exposed as a vehicle for one of the richest oligarchs in Russia to funnel his money into various American companies.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Agents from the Trump administration arrested a Palestinian graduate student who played a prominent role in last year's pro-Palestinian protests at New York's Columbia University reut.rs/3XFtZAT

With dozens of lawsuits challenging President Trump's executive actions, there is one clear question: what happens if Trump defies court orders?

"They have borrowed directly from Nazi sources to make the very same points that the Nazis were making. They understand very well that the way to establish a form of government that is not bound by law or reason is to declare a state of emergency."

The world must learn to take Donald Trump literally

On MTP Elissa Slotkin did not highlight crushing damage to US institutions by DOGE. Did not highlight why Al Green stood up and spoke out. Vaguely supportive of tariffs, with no mention of chaos. Didn't cast shade on H. Con. Res. Said Dems are on heels. Couldn't find Dems' spine. <pls repost>

A mallard duck minding her own business. There are many details within nature to stun such as the geometrical patterns of layered feathers. And with the bright sun and clear blue skies, off to find spring. Have fun! #Stunday #UKbirding #WildlifePhotography #PhotoHour #EastCoastKin #photography

Bernie is on FIRE!🔥

“I am out to sing songs that will prove to you that this is your world & that if it has hit you pretty hard and knocked you for a dozen loops, no matter what color, what size you are, how you are built, I am out to sing the songs that make you take pride in yourself & in your work.” -Woody Guthrie

Seventeen year-old Carole King with session guitarist Jerry Landis aka Paul Simon at a RCA Studio session in New York, 1959 @carolekingofficial.bsky.social wow!

March 7, 1944 Townes Van Zandt singer-songwriter. His music has been covered by Bob Dylan, Lyle Lovett, Steve Earle and more. Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard covered his song 'Pancho and Lefty', scoring a No.1 hit on the Billboard country music charts. He died on January 1, 1997.

Few realize what happened at USADF (not USAID). The situation got so tense that Trump and Musk's agents threatened to call the Marshals _and_ Secret Service to resolve the standoff...by force. It turns out that what they were doing was illegal—in fact, the most illegal thing "DOGE" has done yet.

Donald Trump targeted AP and legacy media did nothing. Donald Trump has now targeted two large law firms and Big Law is silent. You all read Martin Niemöller's poem “First They Came.” So, I ask you -- What are you doing?

Elon Musk is losing his mind over protests at Tesla dealerships. Why? His fortune is collapsing. Nearly all of it is Tesla stock. You know what to do, America. If you want to save our government from a coup, apparently the rebels’ weak spot is protesting and boycotting Tesla.

“Medical staff along the Uganda–DRC border have been terminated. Soldiers are everywhere. The laboratory built to deal with zoonotic diseases with US funding is empty,” says Tim Allen, a tropical-disease-control expert on the ground.

All I'm saying is, if you ran a campaign on democracy being at stake and democracy lost, isn't it time to be massively freaking out instead of doing this

What a wonderful idea…👇 Let’s. Do. This. ✨

Today at the “Stand up for Science” demonstration at the Lincoln Memorial.

LOL 😂 Go find MIT grads, Sean! How hard could it be?

Simmering anger at Elon Musk’s unchecked power spilled out in a remarkable Cabinet Room clash. Read an inside account of the explosive meeting where President Trump checked the billionaire's power.

Fact Check: "This is a Biden hangover.” Trump added $2.1 trillion to the deficit. Biden then reduced it by $942 billion. In the last 50 years, the deficit has increased by a total of $3.8 trillion under Republican presidents. Under Democrats, it’s gone down by $2.1 trillion.

Democratic Congressmember Al Green of Texas says Congress should impeach Trump. "Impeachment is a remedy for a runaway president who believes that there are no guardrails," he tells Democracy Now! www.democracynow.org/2025/3/7/imp...
