Trump wants to control all federal firing & hiring. He wants to be able to reduce & refill the ranks of career fed'l employees. It's soft coup (non-military) happening before our eyes, but too many people aren't paying attention. Read about it here: joycevance.substack.com/p/humphreys-...

They want to keep it quiet, so you know what to do.

NEW: A source tells me that response teams for FEMA set to deploy to the South Carolina wildfires are unable to travel because their government issued travel cards have had their limits reduced to $1. FEMA response team cards were supposed to be exempt.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

110 of 363 Taxpayer Assistance Centers and 5 of 10 call centers are going to be shut down, per a meeting that just happened at the IRS. During tax season.

If you're looking to transition your cat to indoor-only due to H1N1, great! There are many other benefits, too.

"The fact remains that the president of the United States publicly berated a democracy fighting an invasion by the autocrat next door while portraying that autocrat as a man of peace." If he *is* playing multi-dimensional chess...he's not very good at it.

Friday, February 28 **24 Hour Economic Blackout** Plan ahead. If you have to shop on Friday, support small local businesses. No Amazon, Walmart, Target, etc. No gas.

I was proud to be part of the United States team that rallied the world to support Ukraine. Now, I’m horrified by what we’ve become. A tragic day for democracy and an indelible stain on America’s history.

Here’s a prop bet that I wouldn’t take the other side of: That within two years there’ll be wars over Taiwan and the Baltics. And that the Trump administration will stand blame the Taiwanese and Baltic states for starting the conflicts against their larger neighbors.

“Three years after the anticipated three-day conquest, the Ukrainians are still standing. Again, a stunning example of bravery, sacrifice, and patriotism.” www.nationalreview.com/corner/brave...

Tonight we proposed an amendment to ensure that the Republican budget doesn’t raise prescription drug costs for seniors on Medicare. And guess what? Republicans blocked it — just like they opposed us when we gave Medicare the power to lower drug prices.
