Just disgraceful. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Excellent article on the perils of purging the Pentagon. Well written and a must read! @adamkinzinger.bsky.social @repcasar.bsky.social

Something NOT being mentioned is the amount of time and money in the form of training, security clearances, and on-boarding the government spend on these probationary government employees. @adamkinzinger.bsky.social @repcasar.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social #DOGE #defense #DOD

This will be catastrophic for readiness. Let me guess, critical daycare workers will be on the list.

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

One thing if firings are due to plausible incompetence or misconduct, but it will set a very bad precedent if military leaders are fired because they obeyed lawful orders of the previous President. How does that cycle end? www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

Happy Black History Month

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

In the wealthiest nation on earth, 25% of seniors should not be living on $15,000 a year or less. We should EXPAND Social Security, not cut it. I will soon be introducing legislation to significantly raise Social Security benefits and extend the solvency of the program.

I’ve been listening to Vitamin String Quartet to read the news and I’ve found that listening to songs in a minor key really gives the correct ambiance right now…

I have long believed that not enough has been written about how GOP members have felt physically intimidated by Trump supporters. It doesn’t excuse their cowardice, but it still deserves more attention.

IL Gov JB Pritzker is sounding the 🚨 alarm Pritzker is stepping up to fill a Dem leadership void as the Trump-Musk regime carries out its coup attempt --- Please read Prtizker's entire thread

Pete Buttigieg said what we’re all thinking about Trump and Musk’s mayhem: “We too demand government work different and better than it has...burning it to the ground isn’t gonna do that for anyone.”

“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.”

The pentagon purge is about to happen. #trump #hegseth #dod #defense #purge #project2025

Without friends

Anyone have an update on Trump firing the immigration judges? #Trump #Immigration #law&order

This Game of Thrones quote feels especially poignant: “Any man who must say 'I am the king' is no true king.”

This man would be so proud of what the United States has become. You and I? Not so much. Keep calling out those lies!

Fox News and Newsmax are among dozens of outlets backing the AP in a letter I obtained and calling on the White House to restore the wire service’s access. More in Status: www.status.news/p/associated...

Acosta: It’s hard to see somebody out-Spicer Sean Spicer or out-Huckabee Sarah Huckabee Sanders, but Karoline Leavitt—she’s making a run for it. Unless they’ve already done it on SNL, I have to think something like that is in the works, because the skit writes itself.
