It took ten years, but the NYT finally got there

Former Capitol police officer Michael Fanone when confronting Proud Boys insurrectionist Enrique Tarrio: “You are a traitor to this country.” RETWEET if you stand with Officer Fanone!

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

This hits hard.

We had friends & allies around the world based on alliances & relationships that were built over many decades. In one month, Trump has torched them all. Now our friends are Putin, Orban, the crypto scammer in Argentina, and the guy in El Salvador offering us mercenary prisons.

My open letter to Elon Musk.👇 Mr. Musk, You recently criticized me and another prominent lawyer fighting for the rule of law and democracy in the United States. I am used to being attacked for my work, particularly on the platform you own and dominate. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Our latest: The Resistance is alive and well and angry. Please consider reading and sharing. No paywall.

"This chapter will be written, not simply by whoever occupies the oval office, nor by the wealthiest among us. The American story will be written by you, written by us, by we the people"

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

Says the guy who won't even respond to the mothers of his own children

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

He’s threatening to fire federal employees who don’t respond to his email by tomorrow. He has already fired employees with impeccable performance reviews. Promotions will be based on responses to his email rather than detailed performance evaluations by their direct supervisor.

Trump deletes nationwide database on police misconduct which was created after George Floyd's death 📰👇🏾

#Krasnov I would love it if this # goes viral... And better yet.. he will hate it...

An #NIH-funded research team has developed an mRNA vaccine to treat pancreatic cancer. Results from the clinical trial were published this week in Nature. #pancreas #cancer #mRNA #vaccine #medsky #science #medicine #bluesky

Eggs are now so expensive they’re smuggling them like fentanyl.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Do this. Say this. 👇🏻

OPMs email servers trying to hold back all the external troll emails they’re getting in response to DOGE.

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...

“In some ways that’s even more chilling than firing the four stars,” Rosa Brooks, a professor at Georgetown Law. “It’s what you do when you’re planning to break the law: you get rid of any lawyers who might try to slow you down.” By NYT Greg Jaffe www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result is demagoguery and corruption.

“Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty”—Kamala Harris’ speech to the NAACP tonight www.tiktok.com/t/ZT25j64gM/

🤣

Stephen Fry: “I’m deeply worried by the darkening shadow that’s going over the world, a shadow that we have to call fascism” Laura Kuenssberg: “You would use that word?” Stephen Fry: “Oh absolutely. It’s a cult of power; and power only speaks to power”

ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

“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.

USA is now abandoning millions of Agent Orange victims whose lives and families they destroyed.

Yup.

Absolutely

Just in case.

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

Lock him up…..

👀

The US government is now nonstop performative idiocracy.

With this guy, our expiration dates are guaranteed sooner rather than later

Wise man…

They continue to tell this debunked lie 🤥 for a reason: so when they cut social security to pave the way for their tax cuts for the rich you think they had an actual reason to do it.
