When OMB head Russ Vought talks about deliberate efforts to put federal employees "in trauma" and make them quit their jobs, he's talking about people like Michelle, recently fired by Musk/Trump. www.sfgate.com/california/a...

You often hear people saying they miss the times when politics was boring and they didn't have to think about it, but then you hear about any system created during that period of boring politics and it's always stuff like fines for people on welfare who dream about having money

Keep putting pressure on Congressmembers, Ds and Rs. They're all back in their districts the week of March 17. Call and email their offices to schedule your in-district meetings now.

Whether your kids love Moana or you don't want to miss the game, this deal matters to you. Disney wants to buy Fubo to combine it with Hulu+ Live TV. Fewer streamers could mean higher prices… I'm pushing for an investigation.

The liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court is at risk. That’s why our organizers are talking to voters across the state to keep their highest court out of MAGA hands.

Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota. But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

From a FOIA perspective, "the entire federal workforce should write down and email what they did last week" is extremely funny

Local news has picked this up, noting, “Kootenai County Sheriff Bob Norris also appeared to be in attendance at the event, although he has yet to offer a public statement after multiple attempts to contact his office.“ You can see him downthread. www.khq.com/news/attende...

1st: vaccines work 2nd: social media companies developed their OG vaccine policies in response to outbreaks like this in Samoa & Bklyn. Not COVID! They boosted good info. They labeled false claims. That got redefined as “censorship” by ppl who profit from lies. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

NEW: Retailers like Walmart and Target that have rolled back their DEI efforts have seen a big drop in foot traffic, while Costco, a company that continues to invest in DEI, has seen more foot traffic. While correlation doesn't equal causation, still intriguing. www.retailbrew.com/stories/2025...

If you live in Wisconsin, you need to get involved with Susan Crawford's campaign now. Far-right activists have been talking about this race since November. If you live out of state, consider phone banking for crawford or throwing dough to her campaign or grassroots groups organizing for her.

The Kings will win against the Hornets and Jazz, and a large portion of Kings media will act like everything is ok. This team isn't good. DC's record is a mirage. Get ready for another 16 years of no playoffs folks.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

submitted 2 days ago • 2000 comments

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.

Had someone try to compare what Trump is doing through DOGE to people who lost/left their jobs in military, healthcare, teaching, and first responder positions because of “Biden’s vaccine mandates” saying they were the same. Here was my response.

Of the Chiefs of Staff, vice chiefs of staff, and judge advocates general of the three branches, Trump fired all the women and Black people.

It's gonna be really fun when the Kings have to use firsts to get off of lavine's contract in the Summer. That Fox trade is really going to go down as one of the worst in kings history. And that's saying something.

Turns out you need a point guard in the NBA. Also, having three ball-dominant shooting guards who don’t play defense is a recipe for disaster.

Every time I see Moses Moody play well, my hate for McNair grows. He should be fired for the Mitchell decision alone.
