This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Media folks still amplifying the misinformation here, by calling gross cancelled spending “savings”. It’s not *savings* unless a credible source has done an analysis that shows the *same quality and quantity* of services are still being delivered at lower (social) costs. And that hasn’t been done.

Spending funds Congress has not appropriated literally violates the Constitution and to do so knowingly and willfully is a crime punishable by two years in prison. See 31 USC 1341(a) and 1350. uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?p...

Obviously this should be investigated by the governm— … oh wait

Thou shalt not deport hard working, good people whilst importing vile criminals like the Tate brothers and still claim you have morals.

It would be good if the UK canceled Trumps visit. He’s an international pariah and a source of shame to all upstanding Americans

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

Clearly maintaining the White House dress code is very important

The idea that JD Vance—who has never been to Ukaine and chalks up his knowledge to shit he read on the internet—believes he knows more about the situation in Ukraine than the man who has led it for the past 5.5 years is a perfect encapsulation of the havoc this administration is wreaking worldwide

How it started/How it's going

Musk is the living, breathing embodiment of “reckless disregard for the truth.”

(CNN) - A businessman who pumped $75 million into the Trump family-backed crypto token finds himself in a fortunate position this week as federal securities regulators are hitting pause on their civil fraud case against him. @cnn.com www.cnn.com/2025/02/28/b...

So he was drunk or lying.

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

The article states that a majority of people are for deporting undocumented immigrants but ignores the obvious fact that no one is for deporting those they actually know. ‘Pray for us, pray for us,’ pleads South Jersey restaurant owner arrested by ICE with his wife www.inquirer.com/news/jersey-...

JFC. Like, literally, USAID was the counter to the Belt and Road Initiative, and removing it has opened up all sorts of opportunities for China to harm the US.

Please enjoy my last ever post at Climate.gov/ENSO Blog. This afternoon I was fired by the Trump Administration 15 days before my 2yr probationary period ended on March 13. I have worked at NOAA since 2010, and I'm so incredibly proud of the work I did. If anyone wants a quote, let me know.

this degenerate clown's micro-bros have spent the last month sending emails to the PRESENT air traffic controllers begging, pestering, and trying to threaten them into resigning their jobs. and now this ...

When you’re losing the Barstool guy …

If you're not sure why people at the National Weather Service are being fired, that's been a GOP goal for some time. This is from Project 2025, which argues the NWS should focus on selling weather data - not free forecasts and weather warnings.

Time for a “person woman man camera TV” retest

Gee I wonder why there’s a shortage of air traffic controllers

Love this. It should not be limited to this term. But it’s a great step forward. Now @khanna.house.gov and other house members need to make the media tour , including Fox News, to talk about it @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Ready Fire Aim is a lousy way to govern.

Sorry, Green Bay.

SCOTUS has been captured by the .001%. Justices accepted lavish gifts and might have violated ethics rules & avoided recusals. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse explains that a real court is worth fighting for.

I shared this note with the owner of the Washington Post this morning.

The Washington Post and LA Times editorial pages have gone full MAGA, MSNBC has purged all of its anti-Trump anchors, and Twitter is owned by a literal Nazi. Here's why liberal media bias is still a problem.

Deport people who work hard for a living, import international criminals

After flipping several holdouts, the House has approved a GOP budget outline, taking the first step on President Trump's agenda. This plan would allow up to $4.5 trillion in tax cuts, and increases deficits by more than $19 trillion over 10 years.

I miss DEI

Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

You know… Congress and the senate could always pass resolutions calling Russia the aggressor, supporting NATO and calling for a Ukraine victory. Just sayin…. Stop tweeting start forcing.

here's the chart of private sector job growth as joe biden led our recovery out of the trump slump. his treasury secretary is lying as they push us into the trumpcession.

B of A: “.. the termination of #USAID will .. result in fewer crop purchases from US farmers. In 2024, USAID purchased $2 billion in U.S. grown corn, soybeans, wheat, vegetable oil, and peas from farmers, representing 1-2% of annual exports ..”

We are witnessing a historic and frequently illegal dismantling of the government by the richest man in the world. Lets check in on the Congressional committee whose job it is to monitor what is happening in the executive branch:

The DC police last week sought to arrest a sitting member of Congress, a Florida Republican, for physically assaulting a woman in DC. But the US attorney’s office didn’t sign off on it. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/f...

At a London bus stop. The Brits are telling it like it is.

"Data doesn't lie"? It's amazing how much the same people who mocked pre-eminent scientists during COVID are now blindly following a ketamine-fueled hustler and the teenage DOGE dorks.
