Elon Musk’s penis rocket and exploding car companies have been given $38 billion in government funding, but he’s cutting funding for children’s cancer research, gutting the VA’s suicide prevention hotline and letting palettes of desperately needed food expire because it’s “wasteful spending.”

Are you participating in today's consumer blackout? Let me know in the comments! Taking a poll for my morning news report.

Aligning with Russia sure as shit ain’t “America first.” youtu.be/5HJviwBVb-E?...

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

I want to thank the 34,000 Vermonters who joined Sen. Welch, Rep. Balint and me in our delegation town hall by phone & online. An extraordinary turnout for a state of 650,000 people. Needless to say, the people of VT are deeply concerned about what’s going on in DC right now.

A Reminder for Republicans...

NEW: senior spokesperson for the DoJ, 23-year civil servant, and disabled Marine Veteran RESIGNS citing a toxic and hostile work environment.

The Department of Ed has a form to snitch on DEI policies in schools. I’d be a shame if we broke it with thousands of responses… enddei.ed.gov

To all my Bluesky friends, please join me in this effort to fight back and protect our democracy! 💙 #Resist

Not pro-life

We should be writing Project 2029—defining the society we want, clearly and publicly. Let’s start today.

Im excited to take place in the economic blackout boycott tomorrow. I hope you'll join me and millions of others.

BREAKING: A federal judge in California has ordered OPM to rescind memos calling for the mass termination of probationary employees, saying the agency overstepped its legal authority and must inform other agencies it lacked the authority to issue such a directive.

The economic black out is tomorrow. I'm participating.

Groceries are more expensive, air travel is less safe, infectious diseases are raging and inflation is higher than it’s been in months, but at least Trump was able to strong-arm a sovereign nation into releasing a couple of psychopathic sex traffickers. At least there’s that.

The Wall Street Journal congratulated Bezos as its ideological "wingman in the fight." If that is what you are looking for, by all means, support WaPo. Instead, if you are looking for fearlessly pro-democracy news, analysis and opinion, support Democracy Docket. www.democracydocket.com/member-me/

Jarvis: You're not going to like what I'm saying next, but we are in the middle of a totalitarian fascist coup in this country.

Tesla’s shareholders just lost another $38,640,000,000 today — a total $TSLA loss of $600 billion since December. Tesla’s CEO was not in the office. In literally any other public company ever, this would be the point where the CEO gets fired.

You know what type of people a $5 million "Gold Card" for US citizenship will attract? Successful criminals and state-sponsored spies. Well done, Donald, after years of accusing Democrats of using immigration to bring unsavory people to the US, you prove that you were, once again, just projecting.

💥 BREAKING: At Apple's 2025 annual meeting of shareholders today, proposal entitled “Request to Cease DEI Efforts" is rejected by shareholders. Right-wing nonprofit National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR) proposal was also rejected by Costco shareholders 98-2 percent.

Remarkable resignation letter from the Justice Department's chief information officer in the immigration review division — a disabled veteran. Obtained by @propublica.org's Brett Murphy:

A coalition of federal unions and advocacy groups challenged Elon Musk’s order for nearly two million federal employees to explain via email what they accomplished over the past week or face dismissal.

Folk musician Rhiannon Giddens said on social media that she has moved her May concert – originally scheduled for the Kennedy Center – to a different venue in Washington, D.C.

Hmmmm.... I think Baghdad Barbie is getting testy. Today's WH press conference found her blond locks a bit disheveled and a bit of a rash on her forehead.

The near miss on a tarmac in Chicago is small part of a much, much bigger problem. Here's what's happening: youtube.com/shorts/d4fz3...

Even the people working at DOGE say it is a lawless nightmare for America. In fact, they know it better than anyone. Thanks to these true public servants who won’t stand for such a dangerous betrayal of the American people.

JUST IN: DOJ asks Judge Ali to stay his order from today — which was to enforce a TRO in place since Feb. 13 — because, DOJ says, "the Court’s order requires Defendants to disburse nearly $2 billion dollars by 11:59 PM tomorrow." THEY HAD TO DO SO SINCE FEB. 13, THOUGH!! That's the whole point!

NYT: “DOGE deleted the top five highest savings claims on its ‘wall of receipts’ leaderboard after variousnews outlets pointed out multiple errors in its calculations…” newrepublic.com/post/191973/...

Is the legacy media going to do anything? Or is this it?

Try to send private security with zip ties to take away another woman in my presence…try it. I may get my ass beat, but she’s not going down alone.

Goodnight 🌙 Fuck King Musk-Trump for attempting to cut Medicaid for 72M Americans.

Pete didn’t feel like answering this one “retired officer, Lt. Gen. Dan Caine, who possesses few of the qualifications detailed in U.S. law for the position.” —> www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

The U.S. Supreme Court upheld a lower court order that allowed the head of a key federal whistleblower agency to remain in office after President Donald Trump attempted to fire him without cause.

Here to support my friend @joyannreid.bsky.social as she signs off, her last show! She's one of the best!!!

Currently appearing at UK bus-stops. More of this pointed ridicule, please.
