ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about? VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

BREAKING: Josh Shapiro just sued Donald Trump and won, unfreezing $2.1 billion in funds the administration tried to freeze. Another win for Democrats in the courts. Don’t let anyone tell you Donald Trump is unstoppable.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid. So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

The American Bar Association has just called upon every attorney, regardless of their political views, to join them & stand up for the rule of law & at minimum insist that our government "follow the law." Every lawyer has an ethical responsibility to do so. www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

I tried and failed to access the zoom hearing for the Federal employees' Unions against OPM over the "Fork" email. This is what I get. No link. It's a zoom-only meeting.

Am I reading this correctly? It doesn't matter that Congress hasn't appropriated funds for the "Fork in the Road" buyout because, even if Congress doesn't appropriate the funds and the government breaches its agreement, Federal Employees can just sue. #fork

The next step in the Nazi/fascist playbook after the tariffs don't work is to name another minority group, blame them, and eliminate them. I shit you not, this is know as Defame, Isolate, Eliminate.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

Jesus Christ. The only people who understand what tariffs are going to do are those who read their history.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

PLEASE READ ATTENTIVELY! From an employee at OPM to HR. This person used a burner account so she/he wouldn't face repercussions after sounding the alarm. Make no mistake peeps, this only happens with authoritarian regimes. FOTUS is taking over the Federal Civil Service. Thank you whoever you are.

Hey @bestbuysocial.bsky.social , what was the point of telling us you "improved the order process" when what you really did was just give everyone errors and then mark it "sold out". #5080 #5090
