I wonder what pissed people off more: That Musk tried to buy votes with a $1 million giveaway OR That Musk rigged his giveaway so that only Republican stooges won the money

Wisconsin cannot be bought. Our democracy is not for sale. And when we fight, we win. Congratulations, @crawfordforwi.bsky.social!

JFC THIS!!!! This, this, this!!!!!

Musk: Losing this judge race has good chance of causing Republicans to lose control of the house. You lose control of the house, there will be nonstop impeachment hearings and subpoenas

Not only did Elon Musk's candidate lose the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, but today Tesla delivery numbers dropped in Europe. Leon's having a really bad day. 🍿

We’re going to annex Canada and invade Greenland but we can’t request return of an innocent man from El Salvador.

Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford on her victory, and to the people of Wisconsin for electing a judge who believes in the rule of law and protecting our freedoms.

Crawford: Today, Wisconsinites fended off an unprecedented attack on our democracy, our fair elections, and our Supreme Court.. Wisconsin stood up and said that justice does not have a price, our courts are not for sale

🧵 In a chamber echoing with the ghosts of history, Senator Cory Booker offered testimony—measured not in the passage of time, but in conviction. For 25 hours and 5 minutes, he unrelentingly gave voice to a nation worn raw by injustice, cynicism, and fear. /1

Thank you, Wisconsin!

Elon loses. 🥸

We tried to warn them.

Seniors won't complain if they miss a Social Security check, Lutnick says - Axios

Walz: "I wouldn't do those town halls if I were them either because they have to defend cutting Medicare, cutting Medicaid, hurting their local public school, fighting a trade war with Canada. Just the nonsense, and defending President Musk."

Wide awake here

Per @johnleguizamo.bsky.social: “Medicaid is called by different names in different states! Stay awake America you lose everything you rely on!”

Walz: "The idea that the secretary of education would not know what IDEA is -- individuals with disability in education act -- that's like your mechanic not knowing how to put air in your tire. And she's in charge of this nation's education progress. It is catastrophic."

Exactly! 🦋💙🦋

Walz: If trade is so bad with Canada. He was the guy who signed the deal. I think this is how he ran business.The one thing is his claim that he's the business president. He is the worst possible business executive that I have ever witnessed

I love the dem reps who are holding town hall meetings for republicans who refuse to host them.

You all need to be watching Rachel Maddow.

Every democrat should have walked out when rep. Al Greene was escorted out.

To every American tuning in to Trump’s address tonight, do two things before you watch: Check your 401k. Check your last grocery bill, and add 25%. No matter what the President says tonight, that’s the reality of what he’s doing to your family finances.

Beware of text messages about unpaid tolls, FBI and state authorities warn

Have you seen this, yet?! 👇 Please. Pass. It. On. ✨

We did warn them 🤷‍♀️

Joy Reid leaving msnbc; contract cancelled 😳

Holy shit. Senator Dick Durbin, the Ranking Member of the Judiciary Committee, has proof suggesting Kash Patel may have LIED under oath when he said he did not know Stew Peters, a right wing extremist who worked with prominent Neo Nazis. See below: Vote NO on Kash Patel!

New Arizona plane crash, with 2 dead, wasn't a mid-air collision, as ABC headline implied. One plane landed already. Second crashed. "The Cessna landed uneventfully; the Lancair impacted terrain near runway 3 and a post-impact www.msn.com/en-us/travel...

The waste is coming from the White House. 👇

Imagine thinking this was "Making America Great Again".

Wake up America. Immigrants are not stealing your jobs. But the mad king and Elon are!

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

after trump - oops! - accidentally has his top campaign donor fire hundreds of people from the National Nuclear Security Administration... now we learn that, apparently, the new plan is that he's going to handle that one himself, "man to man." whew! sigh of relief. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/b...
