Turns out the Dow doesn’t love it

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

@Jerusalem_Post: US President Donald Trump fired US Air Force General Charles Brown as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Friday night.

Federal workers launch a new site to share inside information about DOGE

all of central Brooklyn is playing a game of Egg The Cybertruck with this one guy who keeps street parking in the hood

In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years. Dr. Vinod Balachandran from @mskcancercenter.bsky.social joins us to discuss the results and what they could mean for cancer treatment.

At a Fed Soc panel last year, DOGE's general counsel had some thoughts: "It is not hard to imagine a president who tells the Court he does not care about their opinion" theintercept.com/2025/02/21/m...

Someone better tell DOGE there’s this guy working from home

. @npr.org Morning Edition: It appears sending migrants to Gitmo was a “PR” effort … @steveinskeep.bsky.social calls it a “signal.” The word is propaganda. These were not gang affiliated migrants, as claimed. It cost more to send them there. And they had been detained by the Biden administration.

It’s journalistic malpractice — to the extent that’s a thing any more — to talk about this Ed Martin letter without clarifying that every expert, other than administration hacks, thinks that Garcia’s statement was not remotely plausibly a true threat. It’s simply ludicrous.

This administration seem to be embracing astounding lies as a strategy, war on truth.

Elon’s unsafe battery products strike again

I wonder what would happen if @wyden.senate.gov @murray.senate.gov asked GAO to investigate whether DOGE's "receipts" claiming savings amounts to fraud. Honestly, it's the only fraud found so far. www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

It just genuinely feels like looting I don’t know how else to describe it

Let's be clear about what Senate Republicans are doing tonight: they're laying the groundwork to pass huge tax cuts for billionaires while cutting vital services for everyone else. Let me explain Trump's great betrayal and how we're fighting back tonight ⬇️

New accusations emerged that Matt Schlapp, the Conservative Political Action Conference chairman, had groped a man at a bar in Virginia during a gathering of conservatives.

Republicans just voted it down.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Microsoft claims it has created a chip that leverages a new state of matter in quantum computing, a breakthrough it says could revolutionize computing.

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

#BadDads of the #GOP

He’s a sick person, let’s test his testosterone levels to make sure he’s a man bc there’s no sign of it.

I don't want a check from DOGE. I want a modern country with sophisticated infrastructure, planes that don't crash, life-saving research, innovative scholars, and leaders who keep corruption illegal and don't intercede on behalf of sex traffickers.
