Singer/songwriter: James Taylor makes a clear statement about Trump/Musk. #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦🇺🇸

It would really help America, and the World if THEY stood up! Come on guys, grab a spine, and let’s go! YOU would become AMERICAN HEROES!

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

The world is cheering on Governor Mills and everyone else who stands up to Felon47. Everything, everywhere, all at once. 👊👊👊

have been wondering about this. as long as you're a temporary govt worker, there's some logic. you don't have to upend your professional life to help on some govt task for a month or two. But now he's a top admin appointee and also CEO of major federal contractor. how is that ok?

Donald Trump is a disaster.

Oh my…

Something odd just happened—an article that had been widely published on media sites has suddenly disappeared without any retraction or explanation. Many may have come across it on Reddit.

NYC Suing FOTUS because he took back $80.5 Million from FEMA Retaliatory, gee Adams your bow to him didn’t work for the city. You don’t care, do you? The lawyers know better They will fight for NYC #Voices4Victory #NYC #Retaliation

It fits.

With everyone overwhelmed by the barrage of bad things coming from the Trump administration, writes @pkrugman.bsky.social, "how many people noticed Tuesday’s executive order that appears to be an effort to strip the Federal Reserve of its ability to oversee and regulate Wall Street?"

The president calls out the female governor of Maine in a room full of the country's governors, and then threatens her publicly. She responds, "See you in court."

New York City sued the Trump administration after the Federal Emergency Management Agency revoked $80.5 million of grants because of the city's handling of migrants reut.rs/4ia50Oc

Illinois looks very different in 2025 than it did in 2019. We've passed six balanced budgets with nine credit upgrades, invested in education, driven economic growth, strengthened our social safety network, reformed the criminal justice system, and rebuilt our infrastructure.

This is why every Democratic governor should’ve walked out en masse. You don’t let people take beatings alone and you do things to grab headlines.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

The world must really be ending if I'm agreeing with the New York Post of all things.

"Donald Trump and Elon Musk never believed in anyone’s free speech except their own," David A. Graham writes in the Atlantic Daily:

Does anyone know if this is true?

Chris Murphy, once again, seems to be the only Dem senator willing to stand up to this lawless, amoral regime.

These are people's lives! No notice just locked out. Could you survive that?

ICYMI PLEASE LISTEN GOVERNOR JB Pritzker, Illinois Bravo GOVERNOR

Zelensky is the first leader, and Ukraine the first nation, to face such an impossible position since Czechoslovakia in 1938 bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/t...

"If it’s not an agency, then DOGE’s tens of millions of dollars in funding weren’t legally allocated and should be returned, some contend. The administration can’t have it both ways
