🚨BREAKING: Federal court rules that the Pennsylvania date requirement for mail-in ballot violates the First and 14th Amendments. Counties cannot reject ballots from counting undated and wrongly dated mail-in ballots. A HUGE victory for my law firm, our clients DSCC and DCCC and the voters of PA!

Pete Hegseth Calls For Steep Cuts To Number Of Steps In AA Recovery

Koh: If you're going to come after the Biden administration on jobs, Biden created 15 million jobs more than many presidents in modern history with the IRA, with the infrastructure bill, including the bridge in Kentucky, which Mitch McConnell signed off on and was at the groundbreaking.

1. The Social Security Administration and DOGE are GASLIGHTING AMERICANS. They are telling millions of beneficiaries that reports they were closing SSA field offices were fake news. Actually, these closures were PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED and LEASES WERE CANCELED. 🧵

NO, NBC NEWS, YOU IDIOTS: Trump isn’t “joking” about stealing an unconstitutional 3rd Term He’s been deadly serious since 11/8/2023 when we first mentioned it on this podcast. You clowns were too gullible to notice GET THE NEW MONDAY COUNTDOWN PODCAST: tinyurl.com/4cska7z4

The chat room whiskeyleaks crew should all lose their jobs.

DOGE/Musk preferentially cancelled grants and contracts to recipients in counties that voted for Harris in 2024. Among cancellations with election data available, 92.9% and 86.1% cancelled grants and contracts went to Harris counties, representing 96.6% and 92.4% of total dollar amounts.

Grateful for the opportunity last night to talk about this reporting by me and @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social If you have information about Venezuelans sent to El Salvador, or at risk of being sent there, our info on Signal is linked here: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Tanden: That's not government efficiency. You would fire an HR manager who did, who had that level of incompetence, who fired all these people and then begged them to come back.

First Trump removes any reference of diversity from the present — now he’s trying to remove it from our history. Let me be PERFECTLY clear— you cannot erase our past and you cannot stop us from fulfilling our future. apnews.com/article/trum...

The Senate voted Thursday to strike down a rule capping most bank overdraft fees at $5, a measure adopted late last year by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that had been expected to save Americans billions of dollars per year.

We’re in an era of unbelievable headlines.

He's such a snowflake.

The Trump regime will round you up off the street and arrest you because you spoke your mind. And federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars who refuse to identify themselves will be the ones to do it. It's fascism. Call it what it is.

RFK Jr. wants to gut the very agencies that protect us from pandemics, approve life-saving drugs, AND help our most vulnerable get healthcare? Y’all… this isn’t reform, it’s reckless. www.cnbc.com/2025/03/27/r...

THE POINT OF SIGNALGATE IS...WHY? Trump’s “intelligence” leaders were MEETING without him because they are making DECISIONS without him. They’ve violated Espionage Laws. And - It’s a Weekend At Bernie’s Presidency. Get the new Thursday Countdown Podcast: tinyurl.com/4ywzvrhj

During the Red Scare, Arnold & Porter was one of the only firms to defend people accused of disloyalty. Their courage is a lesson for today. Here’s their story: www.politico.com/news/magazin...

New in PN: Trump's hopeless tariffs confusion, explained by a historian “He wants the society of the '50s with the policies of the 1890s. But you literally don’t get the society of the '50s without a comprehensive rejection of the policies of the 1890s, even by Republicans." - @rauchway.bsky.social

quick question whatthefuckis happening

Republicans are going to be spending a lot of time defending and making lame excuses for a steady stream of screw ups from the incompetent Secretary of Defense for as long as he lasts in the job.

So, which is it? If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained. And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

Unearthed flight data now reveals that a member of the unsecured Trump admin war planning group chat was in Russia during the time it was being used.

Nothing to see, just the head of the FBI under the influence of illicit narcotic substances.

We have a paper out this morning on the risk of significant damage to Social Security from actions taken by the Trump Administration and DOGE. Here’s a summary 🧵 www.cbpp.org/research/soc...

Under pressure from Elon Musk, Delaware lawmakers are about to pass a law that would erode small investor protections and hand Musk the largest CEO payout in history. The richest man on the planet keeps bending government to his whim to make himself even richer.

White supremacists hiding the achievements of non-white people is a pretty good indication that they know white people aren’t supreme.

Oklahoma Republicans are moving to change the state’s Social Studies curriculum to suggest to kids that the 2020 election was rigged. They want to order teachers to tell students that the ballots are disputed and have “discrepancies.”

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

Donald Trump has reportedly spent $18 million worth of taxpayer money to play golf since his inauguration. This is happening as he slashes the federal workforce, guts funding for vital programs, and tees up major cuts to Medicaid to pay for more tax cuts for the rich. Hello?

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.

The White House is now admitting it ignored Boasberg's order.

THIS IS WHAT WE NEED TO SUPPORT NOW!!!!!

The issue with people like Schumer and Carville is that they refuse to accept that politics is not the same as it was 20 years ago. They refuse to accept they are the remnants of a system that doesn’t exist anymore.

🚨🚨🚨Senate Republicans are trying to jam through a disastrous spending bill that would rip funding from programs that millions of Americans rely on: Veterans benefits, nutrition assistance, and health care benefits. We have to stop it. Call your senators NOW— tell them to VOTE NO: (202) 224-3121

Holy shit, a whopping 56 percent of Americans DISAPPROVE of trump's abysmal handling of the economy. This is lower than any other point even in his first term. PASS IT ON.

Folks defending Gavin Newsom for platforming extreme seditionists reminds me of the people who defended Tulsi Gabbard for supporting Assad and Putin.

BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK

trump went from promising to lower prices on day one to fucking up the stock market and refusing to rule out a recession on Day 48. Raise your hand if you're not surprised one bit. 🤚

If you think Putin's agenda sounds similar to Trump's, there's a reason for that. Both are trying to distract from the economic looting by their respective oligarchies. Watch this video I put out just a few years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-nO8cBD79k

unreal -- Fox News brought in a journalist from Russia as part of a panel, but he's being too hard on Putin and Trump, so host Will Cain has to step in and toe the Kremlin/MAGA line

"Just a big mess": Musk's team claims credit for saving $53.7 million for "canceling" a federal contract that in fact was just for $144,000 and was actually completed 20 years ago. @Fahrenthold.bsky.social @sangerkatz.bsky.social @jsvine.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...
