83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

AZ AG Kris Mayes: This is a coup by Trump against our Constitution, because they are violating not only the separation of powers but also the court orders We have federal judges saying to Donald Trump and Elon Musk, “Stop this now,” and yet we believe they are violating those orders.

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, ProPublica’s analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

Is it too much to ask to want the government to stop the president from doing the illegal stuff?

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

BREAKING: USAID contractors/aid recipients say Secretary Rubio and USAID leader Peter Marocco should be held in civil contempt for violating a court order to lift spending freeze.

Trump will be remembered by future generations as the WORST traitor in American history, and his sycophantic political supporters will be compared to those who decades ago supported Hitler.

Word.

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Not according to Marbury v. Madison.

Still reeling & only 2 weeks out after fires devastated southern Calif AND more dangerous cuts to lifesaving services!!? Only one thing matters—the desperate effort to find ‘waste’ SOMEWHERE to justify giving tax cuts to rich people! www.nbcnews.com/weather/wild...

First weekend of Mardi Gras parade did not disappoint!!! “Musk perfume-Smells like Shit, the odor of Oligarchy”

Seen in New Orleans this weekend!!! #trump

A foreign service worker whose pregnant wife was denied emergency medical transport while stationed abroad has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, alleging its “rushed, haphazard and cruel” push to shut down the agency has placed the mother and unborn daughter at risk.

In order to downsize an organization, one needs a thorough analysis of the employees, work flow, supervisor roles, and budget. Not doing so means things might literally crash. For example, NPS has lost their recent hires, mostly summer park staff. Yosemite is already closing, many others will also.

Wonder if Elon could survive a week on the salary we make. While he burns through $8 million a day, the working class struggles—yet he paints us as the enemy.

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

So many in the conservation field (NRCS, USFS, NPS) are getting fired for poor performance when they have only received better than satisfactory reviews. What can they do about this????

You cannot fire so many people and shutter so many agencies and services and not expect things to start to go very bad very quickly. Our job is to highlight not only the chaos and cruelty of the firings, but also the devastating consequences. The public must turn on this madness and soon.

Please!!! This is the kind of energy the dems need!

📌There has not been a president in my lifetime who has purposefully inflicted pain on people like this one. He is completely dead inside.

The judiciary is probably the only thing keeping the Republic together right now.

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

Do people not understand what’s happening with the Eric Adams thing? The memo instructing the prosecution to be dropped explicitly said it was because he was carrying out the president’s agenda. It was “you’re working for me, so we’re letting you go.” It was an explicitly corrupt bargain

😢

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

The lawsuit alleges the migrants have been "disappeared into a black box" and are unable to communicate with attorneys.

Bawahahaha!!! I'm so dead!

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

We can’t say this enough: When people in Trump‘s orbit deliberately lie about how our constitutional democracy works, they violate the oaths they take to uphold the law. & they violate the trust the American people place in them.

Did you call your senators and Representative today? I did.

We only know this man is in Gitmo because Noem tweeted a propaganda photo that included him and his sister saw it. He has no criminal record. He entered the US in January and immediately made an appointment with CBP to claim asylum. They sent him to a concentration camp bc of his basketball tattoo.

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

It’s no secret that Chair Powell and I disagree on a lot, but today we agreed: without the CFPB, there is no federal regulator making sure giants banks don't cheat you.
