NEW: The Associated Press is suing Trump Administration officials in federal court for banning AP reporters from events over the organization continuing to use the name 'Gulf of Mexico.' AP says the ban violates the First and Fifth Amendments.

Does anyone have any questions about my experience with my cats catching bird flu? Let's do a little AMA while I try and remember what it feels like to just have a slow morning without a hospital call.

apnews.com/article/ap-l... AP sues 3 Trump administration officials, citing freedom of speech

Donald Trump can do a lot of things. Bending my will…or yours…is NOT one of them. You have to make the decision to do that, for him. Just refuse to do so. They can take everything, but we’ll still have our will. With that, we can do ANYTHING.

For those saying, "Where?!" when I say, "Republicans are turning on him," have a watch.

If and when he asks them to, I do NOT believe there is hope...in hell..that US troops would EVER turn on US citizens. Why? Those who would have are Republicans. The citizens who are starting to push back the hardest against Trump in town halls, etc....are REPUBLICAN citizens. 1/4

This is the way back (2025): *an aroused/involved American people *effective lawsuits *wins in state/local elections *political class finds its footing *falling Republican polling numbers All are starting to happen.

Did you know that 72 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for healthcare? The Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans in Congress want to take it away to give tax breaks to billionaires. Don't let them take away our healthcare. Let them know you didn’t vote for this shit.

Dear Europe: Tell the Fur-headed Fuhrer to FUCK OFF! Force him to withdraw US troops from Europe, Defend Ukraine and democracy.

Now I see why he went out on stage with sunglasses on.

REMEMBER: Next Friday, February 28. NOT 1 PENNY SPENT. We can do this. I'm IN, are you? 👋💙

Historically. Low. Poll. Numbers! HISTORICALLY. LOW. POLL. NUMBERS!! One month in…

Let me know if you agree Trump deserves to be called out! 💙

3 years ago, WCK began supporting Ukrainians impacted by war. Emergency relief efforts quickly adapted to meet changing needs across the country. 270+ million meals later, the team has been a model of local agility & leadership with Ukrainians feeding Ukrainians. #ChefsForUkraine

The wheels are get wobbly on the Trump bus. His slash-and-burn approach to governing is sending poll numbers south.

I'm starting to think that the Russia thing wasn't a hoax.

We refuse to let the oligarchs win and control us, and I feel a sea change (link to full video in reply)

Our Founding Fathers must be turning over in their graves.

Rep. Grothman (R-WI): President Trump has done some very good things Crowd: Booooo

That sounds like a plan that I can get on board with! 🤭😅🤣

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Anyone else see that Cybertruck stuck in the snow while the Honda Fit drives right past it? Pretty much sums up America vs rest of the world.
