Promoting an 0-9 to Chairman of the Joint Chiefs is insane - Trump is going to have to promote him to four star AND waive the legal requirements to even hold the position Dan Caine had a distinguished career, but he’s never been a vice chair, combatant commander or service chief

Trump wants to close the Department of Education. In VA-04, this would cost our schools millions of dollars. Rep. Jahana Hayes discussed how @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting back to ensure every child gets the high-quality education they deserve.

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

Felon Trump, a proven liar, fraud, abuser, with double-talk... taking every possible side of every possible issue in public comments. Trump has been controlled by Putin since 1984 when he first sold condos at inflated prices to the Russian mafia.

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

When I was 14, a friend and I wandered into a political gathering, not realizing what it was—until I saw people wearing Nazi armbands. I ran like hell and didn’t stop until I got home. Hate grows when ignored. That’s why protests are happening today at state capitals across the U.S. at noon. #Resist

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

I’ve been wracking my brain for 20+ years about how to best make the case to Americans about the necessity of government. Abruptly laying off the entire National Nuclear Security Administration was not really on my list of options, but maybe it will do.

We shouldn’t have patience for Dems who refuse to hold the line. We’re the opposition party—everything should be about obstruction unless it benefits us. No more tolerance for those who won’t get on board. We tried that, it got us nowhere. “Don’t upset Joe Manchin, we need his vote. Same w/Sinema.”

Only red states like Louisiana, West Virginia, Tennessee and more will suffer from Nazi Musk/MAGA regime destroying the Education Dept as they rely heavily on federal funds. Thriving blue states like New York, California and Massachusetts already fund their own education systems.

I truly cannot fathom the inner workings of minds capable of cutting off AIDS and malaria medications to people who may die without them. What kind of country makes life-saving drugs only for pay, and lets people deemed worthless die to cut taxes for the rich? What moral bankruptcy is this!?
