Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

🚨🚨This from @JBPritzker The Nazis dismantled a constitutional republic in less than two months so it is definitely time to panic.

All of this

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Did you know? Republicans want to cut $880 BILLION from Medicaid to pay for a massive $4.5 TRILLION tax cut for their billionaire donors! Let that sink in for a minute…

WASH POST: “Musk’s DOGE claims to have saved an estimated $55 billion through a combination of layoffs, canceled contracts, lease renegotiations and other actions. But a list that it posted of contracts and leases suggests that number is inflated.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

There are 3 special elections coming up and those 3 seats are the keys to stopping the Congressional Republicans doing Trump & Musk’s evil bidding. We need just 1 seat to block them, 2 seats to stop them, and with all 3 we can FLIP THE HOUSE. Join us!! Monday 2/24 @7:30 EST. 👇👇 mobilize.us/s/Y9NrBb

I’m shocked.

Fox News did to white adults what white adults thought video games and rap music would do to kids.

This will mean that Putin and his troops will be further emboldened to commit atrocities. Civilians who may have been spared may be killed - POWs who may otherwise be left alone now face increasing prospect of torture or abuse. And Trump's actions will be to blame in that case.

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%.

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.

Always stand up to a bully

Musk and Trump are trashing the government services so they can privatize most of them. This is what Russia did in building up Oligarchs: Putin came to power thanks in no small part to the original class of oligarchs, who got ostentatiously rich through crooked privatization deals...

This was just shared with me on Twitter. I 💯 support this. #TreasonousTrump

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

"Should the court grant the motion, it would be the first lawsuit against DOGE where the plaintiffs are able to obtain evidence, albeit limited, on how Elon Musk’s faux agency is operating within the federal government." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Where does the accumulated debt of this country come from? It comes from Republican Presidents. So much for Republican's being the party of fiscal responsibility, all to pass their tax scam.

“At least Russia has elections” Russia frequently jails and kills any opposition to Putin, who has been in power since 1999. If you like dictatorships, that’s fine. Just admit that. Don’t insult anyone’s intelligence—including your own—by claiming Russia has real elections.

For too long in the West, Europe has played the Kantian conscience checking America's Machiavellian dispatch. That needs to end. Europe needs to develop its military defenses and start playing hardball with both Russia and the US. The world has suddenly become much more dangerous.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

To be clear...

OMFG! 🔥🔥🔥🔥Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "We are going to be in your faces, we're gonna be on your ass, we're going to make sure you understand that this is what democracy looks like!" #resist

The guy who racked up almost $8T in debt during his first term has no interest in paying it down. The federal purge underway is to allow for oligarchs to make trillions in privatization and run roughshod in a deregulated landscape. Remember that in an oligarchy, everything is run by the oligarchs.

They won’t ever learn will they

Translation: I will lie as much as I need to!🤬

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

When people see the maple leaf, they see possibility. They see freedom. They see a helping hand. They see Canada, and the best of our values. Happy 60th to our flag. 🇨🇦

Doing great 👍

This is deeply disturbing. Minnesota stands with our LGBTQ neighbors against this unthinkable crime. I’m grateful to the law enforcement agencies investigating. Gwen and I send our deepest condolences to Sam’s family and community. apnews.com/article/new-...

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union. If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South. Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that she has rejected a request from Louisiana Governor Doug Landry to extradite a New York doctor who was previously indicted by a Louisiana grand jury on felony charges related to her prescribing abortion-related medication to a woman in Louisiana.

Just despicable and disgraceful. The US government is now indistinguishable from the mafia.
