This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

I repeat…

Never. Forget. Never. Forgive. ✨

I thought they were all self-made rugged individualists who didn’t rely on socialism.

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

I was told 2 fight back against Trumplethinskin we need 2 use only complete facts. I disagree. Propaganda right now needs 2b smart, dirty, geared 2 winning, not being fair. Fact is the crazier & the more simplistic, the more likely they'll believe it. Get creative & use implication 2 ur benefit.

Direct benefit to Musk from the chaos he sows: “At least 11 federal agencies that have been affected by those moves have more than 32 continuing investigations, pending complaints or enforcement actions into Mr. Musk’s six companies.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/u...

It's funny how suddenly on political pages Facebook is limiting how often I can reply to comments made to me I reply once and can't again for over an hour while the same person can reply to me 5 times in the interim

@raskin.house.gov There's very disturbing info discovered about the 19 year old Edward Coristine working with Musk. www.muskwatch.com/p/doge-teen-...

Call your reps and tell them this. Odds are they don't know.

We cannot ignore how shockingly abnormal it is for a private citizen — who himself has contracts with the federal government — to dispatch a private army of executives, data experts and recent high schoolers to dictate policies to federal agencies. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/elon...

@marcelias.bsky.social Could we possibly have a HIPAA violation class action case against Musk for our Medicare info?

People joking about canceling USAID contracts for condoms and circumcisions should remember: HIV has killed nearly 40 million people worldwide. If the U.S. stops helping countries where it's most prevalent, don't think it won't come back to haunt us

If you are looking for someone to say that all is lost and the courts can't help protect democracy, you are following the wrong guy. If you are looking for someone who fights hard and will never give up, I'm here for you.

A deep far right red County in Tennessee by the name of Greene Country is now begging the orange felon to reverse his decision to ban the minting of pennies because it would cripple their already suffering local economy. Another case of FAFO. Don’t cry, enjoy what you voted for.

Idiots

I can't believe that until a few years ago, I considered this con-man as one of my inspirations; who I considered one of the greatest minds and green entrepreneurs of our time, who truly cares about humanity and the environment. How wrong was I.

This is a flat-out, clear-cut violation of the First Amendment.

Go Canada

The move puts the security and integrity of elections in the U.S. — especially at the state level, where local election officials rely on CISA resources to securely run elections — at risk. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This says it all

"Daddy says he owns you. Can you get me an ice cream?"

It's called The Gulf of Mexico. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

🚨🚨🚨 Trump just fired USAID inspector general Paul Martin—one day after he exposed how Trump’s foreign aid freeze & mass firings have made it easier for U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund terrorist groups like Hamas & ISIS.

Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed. Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly. Yet another reason he must be rejected.
