You know… Congress and the senate could always pass resolutions calling Russia the aggressor, supporting NATO and calling for a Ukraine victory. Just sayin…. Stop tweeting start forcing.

I don’t even know what to do with this information… In total, from 2017 through 2023, 2,682 people with developmental disabilities died under the care of the state of Missouri — on average, one person every day. missouriindependent.com/2025/02/24/d...

Erasure 😢

There are so many problems with this sentence. 1. Sell OUR Public lands? 2. Finance a SWF?! 3. Under what powers?!?!?! Literally WTF!🤬 www.americanprogress.org/article/trum...

FACTS: Zelenskyy is a hero. Putin is a war criminal. Russia has killed civilians. Russia started the war by invading Ukraine. Russia has been losing the war the entire time. Russia has had >800,000 casualties in the war. Europe has helped Ukraine >2x as much as the US has.

This is so cool. I love living like this. I think we should run the country like a lonely and confused 74yo's Facebook feed—same concerns, same level of attention to detail, same approach to problem-solving.

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Guterres warns: Human rights are under attack from dictators, war, and greed. 💰⚖️ A broken system puts profit over people, AI is being misused, and freedoms are disappearing. The world must act now. 💔🌍 #HumanRights #UN #Freedom #Justice 🔗 apnews.com/article/gute...

This is disgusting. www.thedailybeast.com/new-msnbc-bl...

Big Balls”? I’m shocked.

We are witnessing a historic and frequently illegal dismantling of the government by the richest man in the world. Lets check in on the Congressional committee whose job it is to monitor what is happening in the executive branch:

"The Republican party that McConnell is now shaking his head at is the one that he created. He has no one but himself to blame," writes Guardian US columnist Moira Donegan.

Putin’s lifelong dream was to somehow separate the US from NATO. But how to break up a strong alliance that stood for 80 years and continued to expand? There really was only one way to do it, he figured it out a decade ago, and played the long game. Now his guy will do it.

Again, folks think you’re crazy when you say we’re in the middle of the worst Constitutional crisis we’ve ever faced, & the total failure of Article I ever, & then 👇🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️ bsky.app/profile/mcop...

I’m tired subsidizing their rockets and yachts through corporate welfare

The Justice Department is not the president's personal law firm. You are not his lawyers. The free press should be exactly that — free. If the facts they report don’t align with the president’s propaganda, tough. And this statement is a disgrace to the DOJ and the rule of law.

Threatened with pepper spray, dragged and pushed to the ground, and hauled out by men in plain clothes who refuse to identify themselves… Would you think you were being arrested or kidnapped? #andjusticeforall #democracynotdictatorship #teresaborrenpohl lamag.com/news/educato...

Breaking: America just lost the Cold War. Russian misinformation won its place in our highest levels of government.

1. Protests are happening literally every day these days. Trans rights protests. Protests against Musk. Heck, over a thousand people showed up for a protest at the Treasury. I advise everyone, especially people who don't usually, to find any of them and just go to one. It's important.

President Trump on Monday stood by his adviser Elon Musk and the Saturday email he helped create that demanded millions of federal workers justify the work they did last week.

Mark Alford (R-MO): Elon Musk has contracts with the federal government, but he is also, I think, doing an effective job at weeding out the waste, abuse, and fraud in the government. Constituents: BOOO!!! SHOW ME!!! CONFLICT OF INTEREST!!! HE IS THE WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE!!!

Sadly yes. Many also cannot afford to lose their employer sponsored health benefits. Even the comfortable are a major health event away from financial ruin.

May be terminal

Executive Director for the society for the rule of law👇🏽 (a conservative who worked for Rubio)

This is the guy that every single Republican in the Senate is going to act like is unacceptable ad Deputy FBI Director and then vote for after pussing out again. Dan Bongino is a fascist monster.

J shared this.

Sign of the day…

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.  Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.  Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

If Russia ceases combat operations, the war is over. If Ukraine ceases combat operations, Ukraine is over

Dear Europe, Trump completely melts under pushback. So push back.

Welcome to the RFK Jr Era of Public Health.

NO. At a time of massive income and wealth inequality we should not be giving tax breaks to billionaires. We should demand that they start paying their fair share.
