Are you a scientist or student heading to a @standupforscience.bsky.social ‬rally this Friday? We want to hear from you. Tell us about yourself and why you’re going, how far you’re traveling, why you’re fired up, and whether there will be car snacks. Call or text us at (646) 767-6532.

This is why we need smart, qualified people in DC, not dishonest, self-serving, criminal billionaires. Get Elon Musk the fuck out of the White House.

Why are American taxpayers going to bail out scam artists losing money in the crypto markets? We are going to borrow more money to pump it into the crypto market to enrich scammers and leeches who produce nothing of value for humanity?

"So maybe it’s time for the people to lead. After all, that is the real idea of America."

If the US cuts funding for Ukraine, it will have nothing to do with Zelenskyy and everything to do with Trump's weakness. Trump has no plans to end the war and WILL NOT standup to Putin. I wrote the US would cut support to Ukraine in the epilogue of my new book written just days after the election.

Rep. Jim Himes: Zelenskyy is watching 70,000 dead Ukrainians. Missiles are slamming into hospitals. This is what he’s seeing, and he comes to the Oval Office, and a reporter asks him why he’s not wearing a suit. And the effing VP wants him to say thank you…

Macron: “But we must not forget one point—if anyone is playing the Third World War, it is Vladimir Putin. He was the one who started the war three years ago, and he brought 10,000 North Korean soldiers to European soil.”

If you watch rubio’s interviews this weekend, you’ll realize he wasn’t worried about trump’s embarrassing scandal in the Oval Office. He was actually terrified that the mineral deal he negotiated was failing and he’s out, yet again, of trump’s graces

On March 7th, we’re Standing Up for Science— and against political censorship, autocracy, and fascism. Science stands at a crossroads. This is a wider fight for truth, for democracy, and for the future. We hope you join us. www.standupforscience2025.org

Seems like we've been stuck on that number for almost a decade.

Musk just gave the game away in his interview with Joe Rogan. He said that it's because of Social Security that "people are living longer than expected"—which coupled with a lower U.S. birth rate creates a situation he finds intolerable. He _is_ a Yarvinist—and he's coming for our Social Security.

How could people in their right mind expect anything else from trump’s meeting with Zelenskyy? We knew his revenge thirst after the impeachment, when Zelenskyy refused to set up Biden. Remember the “perfect, beautiful call”? How they fired the two Vindman brothers? What did you expect, people?!

So, I’m a communist when asking for universal healthcare, while they actually do the work for communist dictators?

Evergreen.

When America has your back — the weekly illustration from The Economist

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

This says it all.

Quick reminder: @elonmusk isn’t the leader of a country at war, and didn’t wear a tie in the White House and wore a stupid cap

A reminder for these times.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

During yesterday’s Oval Office meeting, Trump and Vance revealed to Americans and to America’s allies their alignment with Russia, and their animosity toward Ukraine in general and its president in particular. The truth is ugly, but it’s necessary to face it.

SAVE OUR SCIENCE! There's a war on science happening right now, and we're trying to win—for the sake of our families, our friends, and our communities. Want to support #StandUpforScience2025? Show up in DC, locally, call your representatives, or visit www.caaps.co/caapsstandup... ☀️

A federal judge overseeing a lawsuit claiming Elon Musk is wielding vast unconstitutional power to reshape US government said he was “highly suspicious” of the Trump administration’s incomplete explanation of the billionaire’s actual role.

Jeff Bezos had a busy day Wednesday. After announcing the obliteration of the Washington Post’s editorial page that morning, he had dinner that night with Donald Trump. 👉

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy. Let that sink in.

The richest man in the world calls people who get help from government programs the “parasite class.” But Medicaid’s beneficiaries aren’t parasites. Half of them are children. If we’re talking about people who depend on government, Elon Musk is the biggest “parasite” of all.

So likely the world’s first Trillionaire Elon, who received $36 Billion in govt subsidies and contracts to generate his wealth, is telling the people who built this country what they can live without, as he giggles with his chain saw. Something ain’t right

I missed Trump’s apology to Zelensky for calling him a dictator last week.

Fuck Donald Trump Fuck JD Vance Fuck Marco Rubio Fuck Lindsey Graham Fuck ALL the spineless, hypocritical, lying, worthless, traitorous Republican bastards.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy. Minnesota stands firmly with our allies in Ukraine.

The disgraceful behaviour in the White House is not about Trump or Vance. It is about the complicity of the entire political class of the United States and the American media. It is about the very soul of America. They either stand up for democracy or they stand for tyranny. The world is watching.

Have you noticed a growing skills gap? According to Hays research, 85% of hiring managers are struggling to find the right talent. It's time to rethink hiring practices & focus on skills-based hiring to create more inclusive companies. Here's how businesses can lead this change: virg.in/3X8FNvn

Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.

Screenshot of Rubio while Trump and Vance berated Zelenskyy

Trump and Vance — elected by MAGA voters, and supported by spineless Republican members of Congress — are both shamelessly subservient to their Kremlin master.

Donald Trump has betrayed Ukraine. His abhorrent actions today have embarrassed and weakened this country in the eyes of the world.

This is a bigger scandal than people realize. It really makes it look as though this entire meeting was a setup by Trump that was planned in advance. If you watch the video it is clear that they are deliberately and almost derangedly blindsiding Zelenskyy. Now we know who the audience was. Putin.

Supporters Praise Trump For Upholding Traditional American Value Of Supporting Murderous Dictators For Political Gain

That asshole in the White House will NEVER speak for me. Smash that 💙 if you stand with President Zelensky.

Marco Rubio just sat there like a useless sack of shit. What a global embarrassment.

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮 #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦
