Wise man…

Working families need Washington to bring down costs—on housing, health care, child care, groceries, you name it. They don’t need Donald Trump and Elon Musk to cut funding for cancer research, fire air traffic controllers, or gut disaster recovery.

We should all applaud Judge Ho’s appointment of former Bush SG Paul Clement to present a perspective distinct from those of the indicted NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the Trumpservient DOJ prosecutor Emil Bove. Well played! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/n...

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Don’t see how gov can even defend this lawsuit. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/b...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

What's the difference between firing someone "for DEI" and firing them because they are Black?

Todays hero

This is how it’s done.

Turns out the Dow doesn’t love it

Let's say their names: * General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK * Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE * Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE All replaced by less qualified white guys.

russia is a kleptocratic dictatorship, an economy and political system in decline under a government that stopped investing in human capital decades ago. the united states alliance with europe is far more valuable and should be treated as such by american leaders.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

If you haven’t seen this yet, please do. Because this morning something awesome happened that I’m going to say more about soon…. Hint: Georgia…. Town hall. It’s happening…. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We don’t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we don’t get invited on shows & don’t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

It’s amazing to me that people still question whether or not Trump is a stooge for Putin.

This is an important way we can protect access to safe and reliable reproductive care.

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

"The actions of Musk and DOGE have created moral dilemmas of a kind no American government employee has faced in recent history. Protest or collaborate? Speak up against lawbreaking or remain silent?" www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Spoken like a true dictator.

Trump and DOGE accused federal civil servants of fraud (with no evidence). Meanwhile, they're halting enforcement of a foreign anti-bribery law, dropping criminal charges against Eric Adams, and pardoning a former governor who tried to sell Obama's Senate seat. Hello?

This is fascism.

Friends, May we never forget that while negotiations,statements, addresses and the rest of the (undoubtedly important) diplomacy track are happening,exhausted #Ukrainian men &women in military uniform are holding back evil on the frontlines. Without them,there would be no diplomacy track at all.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

Money talks

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

NEW VIDEO: Fourteen Democratic state AG's have sued to block DOGE in the biggest broadside on Elon Musk's efforts to reshape the federal government. Paige and I explain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DTQ...

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans. Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

For Monday February 17:

Elizabeth isn’t hiding. She’s leading from the front:

You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union. If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South. Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

Actor Issa Rae canceled her sold out event at the Kennedy Center after the orange felon placed himself as chairman to diminish, insult, trash the arts and calling it an infringement on the values of an institution that faithfully celebrated artists. This is how you do it. 💙👊👏

READ: Ex-assistant U.S. attorney Hagan Scotten writes to Emil Bove, Trump's acting deputy AG, refusing to drop the Eric Adams case. "…I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me."

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

Elon and his Tech Nazis are accessing your personal data illegally, and there IS something you can do about it. Contact your state's Attorney General, or your Consumer Protection Agency here: www.usa.gov/state-consumer. Fight back.

The people of Massachusetts voted overwhelmingly to get this done. Leaders like Governor Maura Healey and Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Campbell stayed in the fight. And now working people can save time and money by having more options for where they can get their cars fixed.

Adams prosecutor resigns “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me." ”https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02/14/nyregion/eric-adams-charges-doj/b67279e2-948a-5d0f-b225-939db710d8a1?smid=url-share

🥲

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

new resignation from SDNY Hagan Scotten -- he's a John Roberts clerk -- Roberts can't be happy at that -- and a 2 times bronze medal winner for duty in Iraq. This is the best of DOJ v the worst of the political system. The lines so clearly drawn
