"A small group of Republicans in the Senate and House, acting in concert among themselves and in cooperation with the Democrats, could make a fundamental difference. With their support, Congress could insist that aid for Ukraine be added to appropriations bills." www.thebulwark.com/p/what-a-wee...

"Here's what I don't understand: if so many GOPs in Congress are truly getting death threats against themselves/their family, why aren't they recording the calls, putting them together and releasing them all to the public?" Cowards. www.rawstory.com/trump-gop-th...

Isn’t this telling?: Lindsay Graham thinks it’s a sign of power/strength that “everyone’s on edge when Trump talks”. No, Lindsay- it’s impulsiveness, absence of self observation, thuggishness.That you see it as “powerful” explains a great deal about your nauseating obsequiousness. Pathetic.

Scrap the cap

I’m pretty sure this is what voters want from their elected officials www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

WATCH: DOGE *savings* are filled with huge lies/errors and take credit for contracts that ended as far back as 2005. (@MarshaBlackburn - any comment?) Again: a charade to pave the way for tax cuts for the rich. It’s about ideology, not efficiency. Full: www.nytimes.com/video/us/pol...

Had Donald Trump been elected president 80 years ago, he would have ordered American troops to do a 180 on the Rhine and to attack the British, Canadians, and French with the help of what remained of the Wehrmacht and Waffen SS.

Another strong woman speaks the TRUTH…

There should be an investigation into Elon Musk.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social DO NOT FUND DOGE. Hold the line. We are counting on you

Agree. It's flabbergasting. But Schumer and Jeffries are not the people for the this moment.

The Trump Administration expects Putin to help 2026 and 2028. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...

Chris Murphy: "It is absolutely shameful what's happening right now. The White House has become an arm of the Kremlin."

BASH: You voted to approve Marco Rubio's nomination to be secretary of state. Did you make the right choice? CHRIS MURPHY: Nope. It was a mistake. It was a mistake. I think a lot of us thought Marco Rubio was going to stand up to Trump on an issue like this.

The latest news from Burlington, Vermont. 😄🇺🇦

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now. Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings. I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them. Get local media there. Make it real.

The boycott is strong and getting stronger every day.

I’ve been trying to figure out what he was trying to protect there with his hands because he doesn’t have any

Gotta love Janet! ❤️ She is a badass, isn’t she?! 🤚 Pass. It. On. ✨

"What can I do?" That is the number 1 question I get asked. And at this time in our democracy -- or what remains of it when public servants put their loyalty to a person above their oaths of office— I am grateful that people are asking that question. Below is a video with my answer:

As Donald Trump turns the United States into one of the closest allies Russia has worldwide, it's worth revisiting the news item below, which came out immediately after Trump won a surprising victory in November:

Governor Josh Shapiro: He has demonstrated nothing but weakness when it comes to national security over the course of his first month in office.

What was most shocking about yesterday's WH meeting was not that Trump was an unhinged thug or that Vance was a weasel. It was that Trump and Vance were embracing the Putin line, spreading Putin's lies, seeking to advance Russia's national interests and hurt ours from beginning to end.

Alexander Vindman: Lindsey Graham is an absolute coward. Trump didn’t sound strong—he was attacking an ally when he didn’t need to. All Zelenskyy said was that Trump couldn’t trust Putin. And JD Vance—he looked like an absolute clown. I don’t understand why Trump let Vance blow up his deal.

Sounds like a billionaire who’s never talked to a working person in his life. Elon: get your hands off of Americans’ hard-earned Social Security.

NOTE: The opponents of DEI are purging anyone who is not a white man from military leadership This is not about merit; it’s about normalizing racism and misogyny

"The spectacle of the president and vice president of the United States tag-teaming to bully the leader of a U.S.-allied democracy fighting for its life against an autocratic aggressor has appalled observers around the world." www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-vanc...

We invited Elon Musk to defend himself in front of the American people. He was too much of a coward to show up.

The bloodbath at NOAA apparently included meteorologists with the National Weather Service; scientists inside what’s simply known as NOAA Research, or the office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) more formally; technicians that keep up the country’s weather instrumentation;

What happened to Little Marco?

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

WSJ editorial board: "But as with the war, Mr. Zelensky didn’t start this Oval Office exchange. Was he supposed to tolerate an extended public denigration of the Ukrainian people, who have been fighting a war for survival for three years?"
