Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

The resistance is the majority.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

NEW 👀: As predicted, Judge Ho has ordered a hearing for 2 p.m. this Wednesday to explore why the DOJ has moved to dismiss the charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/n...

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

The guy who racked up almost $8T in debt during his first term has no interest in paying it down. The federal purge underway is to allow for oligarchs to make trillions in privatization and run roughshod in a deregulated landscape. Remember that in an oligarchy, everything is run by the oligarchs.

It’s about having red hair and freckles FFS and how to be cool with that when other kids make fun of it. By that twisted logic, you’d have to ban pretty much every children’s book, old and new www.cnn.com/2025/02/17/e...

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

Some don’t even realize they’re actually eating all the faces.

"the house of the USAID mission director in Kinshasa had been looted, and videos of the ransacking began circulating on social media..." www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

A statement from Robert B. Fiske Jr., John S. Martin Jr., Mary Jo White, James B. Comey, David N. Kelley, Geoffrey S. Berman, and Audrey Strauss:

This is the way.

Some federal employees who accepted Trump’s buyout offer are now being notified that their buyout has been denied, and they are being terminated instead.

Breaking - White House is forcing out top leadership at the National Archives. “The exodus of senior staff is seen as a huge loss for the agency, which is considered nonpartisan and dedicated to the preservation of history and documents.” www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/p...

Conflict of interest? The State Department’s procurement forecast lists Tesla as the recipient of the largest expected contract, with Marco Rubio’s department planning to purchase $400 million worth of “Armored Tesla” vehicles.

“A form letter sent to Department of Education employees informing them of their termination stated: “The Agency finds, based on your performance, that you have not demonstrated that your further employment at the Agency would be in the public interest.” www.cnn.com/2025/02/12/p...

No words. But, I’m not surprised. I am a military veteran. I’m a former congressman. I cannot in good conscience follow or support this administration. Anyone voting for her is complicit in the downfall of this country. Tulsi Gabbard is an abomination. apple.news/A01S4jqQSSK-...

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

Shadow VP…

I'll go anywhere on behalf of a good cause - and that means engaging people across all the different platforms. Good to be connected here, @maddow.msnbc.com and @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com.

Does anyone beside MAGA believe this is official ?????? I'M SICK OF THEIR S*** dogegov.com

The CFPB has returned $21 billion to 205 million consumers who were scammed at the hands of predatory banks. You can root out waste, fraud, and abuse... or you can eliminate the CFPB. But you can't do both.

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

Mr. Patel has been directly involved in secretly orchestrating a purge of career officials at the FBI. Emil Bove, then acting No. 2 at the Justice Department, fired career civil servants solely at the request of a private citizen.

Senate Democrats launched a new portal for federal employees to blow the whistle on illegal or illicit activities being done in the federal government under the purview of Donald Trump, Elon Musk, or DOGE.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

Not even trying to hide it…

As we start another week, my law firm is litigating 46 voting and election cases in 19 states. A team starts trial to protect the Voting Rights Act in Alabama tomorrow! Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of democracy and democracy is on the docket.

As companies shell out big bucks for Super Bowl commercials, remember that many said they were forced to raise prices due to inflation. Also remember that average profit margins in nearly every sector in the S&P 500 are running near or above 10-year highs. Hello???

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

"if Musk’s team has been granted security clearances, as the White House insists, it would most likely be with minimal to no vetting, a process that usually takes months..." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/08/u...

Ooo this is a good one ☺️

True.
