$5000 is not going to happen. Its a way to get MAGA off their backs long enough to finish what they are doing. They know MAGA will either forget about it in a month or do mental gymnastics so they don't have to admit they were wrong about something. They are buying themselves time.

Perfectly said and true. Exactly what I was saying earlier in a reply to someone’s post. Congress and the courts are no longer an effective way to fight this dictatorship, and we are a dictatorship now. Make no mistake of it.

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

STAND UP TO MUSK Despite Trump’s campaign promises, Musk is coming after your earned Social Security benefits. Demand that every member of Congress stand up to Musk’s cynical efforts to steal our earned Social Security benefits while giving himself and other billionaires a hefty tax cut.

Judge Advocate General JAGs are the military's top lawyers who administer the military code of justice. Hegseth has previously railed against the military's calling them “jagoffs” in his book. He fired the top 3 JAGs (Army, Navy, and Air Force) whom he plans to replace. He’s a Christofascist.

A MUST-SEE‼️ The PayPal Mafia—Musk, Thiel, Sacks, and Botha—have ties to apartheid South Africa & a hand in US policy and the election. • Elon Musk – Unelected co-president, dismantling the government for his own gain. FUN FACT: His grandfather wanted to scrap democracy for technocrat rule. 🧵

The world is watching Donald Trump abandon Ukraine and our European allies to curry favor with the Kremlin. All of us — Democrats, Republicans, elected officials and ordinary citizens — must push back with every tool we have if we are to save our own democracy and others.

URGENT: The GOP just pulled a corrupt move. Rep. Andy Biggs—author of the “One Subject Transparency Act”—wrote H.R. 77, a bill that does the EXACT OPPOSITE. They’re flooding the zone with multiple issues to overwhelm Americans and gut protections. WATCH Rep. Jamie Raskin expose this tactic.

GOP PLAYBOOK: Lie to your face, rob you blind, and hope you’re too stupid to notice. WATCH Pramila Jayapal expose the GOP’s lies in real time. USAID is 0.71% of the $6.13 TRILLION dollar budget. Meanwhile, The GOP is cutting YOUR benefits while giving Elon Musk unlimited taxpayer money.

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...

These people all have actual conflicts of interest that should keep them from working on any investigations like this. It's a measure of how tainted and corrupt this Justice Department is becoming and it breaks my heart. I hope it doesn't break our country. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
