Trump offered to hand all Putin’s captured territory in Ukraine to Russia as the starting volley of a “negotiator”. If someone tries to tell me what a “masterful negotiator” he is again I’m gonna knock them out.

If someone wanted to destroy the United States from within, would they do anything differently than what Trump is doing right now?

Trump is definitely an asset to America's enemies. Disruption, confusion, and chaos not only in federal government, but throughout the world. Also cutting USAID victimizes starving children while undercutting our soft power. Trump's actions are effectively as treasonous those of a Russian agent!

Please! Stop with the excuses. Trump is A racist A Russian asset An autocrat A Fascist Think about it! What is "Woke"? Why are Trump and his allies so against something they can't or won't define? Maybe it's because the need a sleeping populus to allow them to destroy American democracy! WAKE UP!

This is getting very dangerous. Time for ALL of us to act. Time for OUR reps in Washington to REALLY FIGHT for US not with words (They are good with words) but with real ACTION.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family.   By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

The attacks on DEI are an example of America's basic fear of democracy and racism. America has always been diverse, and that has always been its greatest strength. It's equality and inclusion of all Americans equally in the democracy that's the problem. Reality is democracy requires DEI!

The Republicans in congress have abdicated their respossiblity to their oath to support and defend the Constitution. The cowards would rather appease Trump supporters than risk losing their seats for following the law!

Trump supports generally want to punish those with whom they disagree. They want to deny inclusding democracy for those they see as different or having different views. They want erase history and deny its existence rather than correct its errors. If they could they would wipe some out of existense!

The Trump administration’s move to fire thousands of federal employees could have a swift and severe impact on public services, staffers warned, as a beleaguered workforce struggles to cover for lost colleagues.

INCOMPETENCE OF NUCLEAR PROPORTIONS Trump officials fired nuclear staff not realizing they oversee the country’s weapons stockpile. Now, they are rushing to rescind their terminations.

I'm working on a couple of upcoming talks and can't get over how simply describing what is happening right now with attacks on the NSF, NIH, Diversity, etc. makes me sound like a raving lunatic. They've launched an all-out assault on empirical reality.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Hilarious NYT headline: REPUBLICANS LOVE TRUMP’S SPENDING CUTS. JUST NOT IN THEIR STATES.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment. I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face. And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.
