At the Long Beach Tesla Takedown, lots of folks out here (I’d estimate probably 40-50 so far) and lots of support from cars driving by. Come out and join!

General Charles Q. Brown Jr., Faithfully and Honorably served the Constitution and The People of the US for 41-years in the USAF. His last posting was as the 21st Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was unjustly fired by the dangerously unqualified SECDEF. I proudly stand with Gen. Brown.

The guy who says federal employees should not work from home because they're out golfing... is out golfing. Since 1/20/25, he’s spent 27.27% golfing Go figure. “What works for thee does not work for me.” trumpgolftrack.com

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

Canada held a solidarity rally in support of Ukraine against the fascist Russian invasion and the unsurprising US betrayal. Scenes from Montreal. #3E #EndImpunity #EndOligarchy #StandWithUkraine

I wish I was a Federal employee so I could reply back with these.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

If we have enough people with the knowledge and moral fortitude of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and the Associated Press- we might be able to save our Democracy

Medicaid is NOT just a safety net, it's a HUMAN RIGHT! 80 million Americans, including kids, moms, seniors, people of color, rural Americans, and people with disabilities COUNT ON IT TO SURVIVE. Republicans want to CUT IT OFF AT THE KNEES? Don't Cut My Medicaid

MAGA/orange felon attacking Canada and trying to make it the 51st state has done nothing but to increase my Canadian patriotism even more than ever before. Always rooting for our Canadian friends. 🇨🇦

Lucky for him, he still has the treasury to rob.

This.

“We’ll see you in court.” Gov. Janet Mills is a badass for this.

Steve Bannon giving a Nazi salute at one of the biggest conservative events in our country should be career ending. Instead, conservatives are defending and even praising him. Do not ignore this. This is how fascism takes hold. Do not let them gaslight you into ignoring the signs.

A federal judge adjourned the Eric Adams trial indefinitely — but appointed former solicitor general Paul Clement as a friend-of-the-court. Judge Ho will have an “adversarial” process on whether to dismiss the case. https://buff.ly/3QuVmtB

The GOP convicted felon has launched a war on the American people & our constitution. We have guardrails to stop a rogue president. But are our lawmakers? Happy to be part of it & obey, in the foolish belief that THEY will be spared. Wait for the final irony. #Opposition #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Today's front page of The New York Post.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

We should incorporate "unpatriotic" into our messaging about Donald, Elon, and MAGA. They're destroying the government, violating the law and the Constitution, supporting dictators, embracing monarchy, hurting 9/11 heroes, damaging national security, etc. THIS IS UNPATRIOTIC. Say it. Over and over.

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

Get Ready For Delayed Tax Refunds, Long Hold Times After Mass IRS Firings But wealthy tax evaders will enjoy “a feast” as the strained federal agency lacks the resources to hold them accountable, said one tax policy expert.

John Fetterman’s staff are leaving him in droves and there are awful rumors about how he treats them. Are we sure he’s not just three Kyrsten Sinemas sitting on each other’s shoulders in a hoodie? Our latest:

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who agrees that if you want people to stop calling your party a bunch of Nazis, then your party leaders should stop doing Nazi things like the Sieg Heil. Did you notsee this coming?
