Duckworth: "He essentially just surrendered to Putin."

BREAKING: The U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals—made up of a Trump appointee, a Jimmy Carter appointee, and a George W. Bush appointee—rejected Trump's DOJ emergency request to lift a Seattle judge’s hold on his unconstitutional birthright citizenship executive order. So. Much. Winning

This is genius.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

Dear third-party voters, you’ve been awfully quiet. What’s up? What’s the game plan for the next 3 years and 11 months? Asking for 75,017,626 friends who did the right thing because we wanted to avoid all of this shit!!!

Thanks to Donald Trump – it's a great day to be a billionaire in America. For the rest of us? Not so much.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Yeah, we don’t swear fealty to a king here. That’s kinda our whole thing and in that respect I’m a traditionalist.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

The daily chaos we're seeing, planes dropping out of the sky and nuclear weapons officials being fired, measles outbreaks, is all on trump -- the guy who ran to be in fucking charge. There are unqualified people at every position he nominated, so things will get MUCH worse. We're only 28 days in.

It’s nice that the Target founder’s heirs oppose canceling DEI & sidelining Black-owned products, but they don’t run the company—and Target has made its stance clear. @Target.com: There’s nothing you sell that I can’t find elsewhere. I don’t shop where I’m not welcome. You’ve already been replaced.

The VP of the US responding to a journalist. What a great role model for our kids.

True words.

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

The longtime strategist also had a warning for Democratic figures.

Tom Homan can’t find enough illegal immigrants to deport because they fabricated the ‘crisis,’ so now he’s just gonna spend all his time attacking AOC.

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.

An important point to keep in mind.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

Absolutely beautiful tribute. #SNL50 #50Years youtu.be/fXAbLeJyB0o?...

Here is my Federal Employment Termination story:

Who the fuck does he think he is?

can someone smarter than I am explain in small words how dumping hundreds of thousands of newly unemployed federal workers into the job market all at once won’t absolutely wreck the economy

I have just finished reading Danielle Sassoon’s memorandum in its entirety. It is a tour de force. Its correctness is obvious. She’s an American hero. Emil Bove ought to be investigated by his state’s bar association for discipline and possible disbarment, at least.

A total of SIX government attorneys resigned today, rather than obey Trump’s order to dismiss the case against NYC Mayor Adams! WOW!!!

...they're eating the protections for the people who live there.

!!!!!!!!!!!!

Valor Danielle Sassoon, Acting U.S. attorney for SDNY - refuses to drop Adams charges and resigns John Keller, Acting head of DOJ Public Integrity Section - refuses and resigns Kevin Driscoll, Acting head of DOJ Criminal Division - refuses and resigns www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

I need someone to answer this damn question!

The Attorney General of the United States — the chief *law enforcement* officer of the country — just told Apple and Google that they can break the law with impunity. Maybe you like this result; but is this the kind of country you want to live in? open.substack.com/pub/stevevla...

Putting RFK Jr in charge of our nation’s health is like putting Jeffrey Epstein in charge of child safety.

lol sure buddy.

NEW: At least three more DOJ Public Integrity Unit senior officials have resigned after meeting with Emil Bove on the Eric Adams case. Five in Public Integrity overall. That’s six officials who resigned, triple the number that happened during the Saturday Night Massacre.

Proud of prosecutors in SDNY and Washington who resigned rather than carry out DAG Emil Bove’s order to dismiss indictment against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. Integrity > politics and careerism.

Jon Hirshberg: “as he abandons the people of Ukraine and our NATO allies, Putin's "useful idiot" returns to pushing an inane LIE that ignores why JFK blockaded Cuba (90 miles from the U.S.) in 1962, our adversaries' supersonic stealth bombers and AI-enhanced speed of light cyber-attack technology.”

What could go wrong? www.npr.org/2025/02/13/n...

The DOJ is now a criminal operation

This is your daily reminder that it's a coup.

Screw Google for capitulating to this childish nonsense.
