Limited tools? What's that song about a hammer? You got a mouth Get loud You are a SENATOR, you have more tools than almost any other people on the planet

“Once the military is deeply into partisan politics, it simply will be hard to take it out of partisan politics”

Rep Kevin Hern—scared to say anything against Trump. The obvious—if Zelenskyy were a dictator, Trump would love him like he loves Putin. Glad to see folks in Oklahoma calling him out. Even small town halls matter right now. Don’t let them off the hook. Keep calling, emailing, and confronting them.

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

A reminder to the men and women of our nations armed forces: You have a legal obligation to disobey blatantly unlawful commands. If you need verification, the legal department on any base can answer your questions about that, free of charge. Always remember your oath, and follow the law.

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

PRAMS is the source of data for basically every effort to limit infant mortality and all the health dangers mothers face before and after birth. So a pretty big deal the Elon and Co decided to cancel the program.

It's so sad that they went with "Third Term" when "Third Reich" was right there waiting for them.

Right? I mean I personally run & work out regularly and eat loads of delicious cabbages and it doesn’t make me any less autistic or negate the need for adhd medication. These things are orthogonal to each other.

Would be funny, IF Agent Orange, Comrade Krasnov, Pootin Dicktaster, Donvict Drumpf DID TRY to start a war with Canada or Mexico, and our side immediately surrendered & asked for amnesty, rather than follow such illegal orders.

The impeachment for extorting Ukraine in his 1st term. The burning of translator notes. Praising Putin, dumping Russia’s sanctions, spouting Russian talking points & attempts to exit NATO. Exposing our CIA operatives & stealing classified documents. Making it make sense. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory

I am inundated with messages from federal workers who are feeling frantic, furious and fed up after receiving Musk’s email and reading his threatening X post. The psychological warfare is the point.

Yes. It seems like they didn’t get nearly as many people as they’d hope to accept the deferred resignation program and now they’re trying to mentally break them and get them to quit. They want agencies to fail.

In the era that I studied when I was still part of the academic world one recurrent topic was that of "over-mighty subjects". This referred to subjects of the Crown who were themselves so powerful that they threatened the sovereign power of the Crown itself. In the US we have no sovereign, or ...

We kicked holocaust denier Ernst Zündel out of Canada. Why the hell would we let Elon Musk have any claim on Canada? He is a fascist threatening the people of Ukraine. I am proud to be helping drive this asshole from our shores. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

Quite a moment when top military commanders are reacting to Elon's latest manic weekend email outburst as though it's a provocation from a rival state power

CBC trying to explain how a "conversation" about whether Canada has a right to exist as a nation will be good because they have asked an American DJ to co-host. Like asking Ukraine to join a "conversation" with Russia about their borders. But don't worry it will be done with "care."

Good. Having worked closely with Technologists and UX experts from the REAL U.S. Digital Service, I am psyched to see this! 🫡🇺🇸 #WeTheBuilders #CivicTech www.theverge.com/news/617014/...

Imagine dedicating your whole life to defending this nation only for this draft dodging Russian stooge & his deranged Apartheid con man to just end your career in a move to make the apparatus a personal defense force

I am apologized to several times a day by Americans for what their President is doing to Canada and it is very sweet, but even better would be watching you fight him until he is impeached.

Anyone having lived through the Cold War should know that VIPs traveling to Eastern Bloc countries were targeted for Kompromat. I knew of his travel history and so I was certain that Donnie boy was compromised as soon as he descender his golden escalator. Major American counter-intelligence failure.

Professor Eddie S. Glaude: “The irony, he holds a Black History Month Reception as he’s issued all these executive orders around DEI. Touts the importance of Black folk to the history of the country mentioning Tiger Woods, Kobe guess that’s what we’re reduced to, athletics entertainment I suppose.”

Home made lawnsigns are fun- like social media posts that reach your physical neighbors. Resto. chalkboards are not too expensive. I needed two to express current awfulness though. Here is a chain of them. If you go for it use #bluelawnsigns and #blueboards to share here.

AOC has come up with some really great observations lately. This is one of them.

bless the survivors of one of the most brutal periods of modern history standing up to stop it from happening again

So Mad King Elon posted this about two hours ago and I've now seen one of the actual emails. Not going to mention the agency my source works out. But suffice it to say it's entirely shuttered. So everyone there was forced to stop working more than a week ago. The actual email is one is that in ...

In the original German it's called Machtergreifung.

In the past few days, I’ve come to realize how rampant far-right disinformation is in Europe and the UK. It’s mind boggling. Talking to various older Brits, Germans, Italians who were NOT right-wing cranks, I heard them say: 1/

I think it’s not helpful to repeat claims that the administration is working on eliminating “DEIA” as though it’s some kind of corporate strategy; just say explicitly that they’re trying to eliminate diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, and explain how.

Relax everyone, he’s just trolling us…

Why are people drawn to RFK's false promises? Why do they have so little trust in medical institutions and why are they willing, even eager, to see them dismantled? We've enforced desperation on millions of now very manipulable people––and we're all now paying for it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CxG...

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.
