THIS IS WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Let’s go Democrats! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Chuck Schumer says Senate Democrats won't provide votes to pass GOP funding bill as shutdown draws near www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

1. The DOGE website is garbage. The claimed savings has no relationship to the data provided. And the data that is provided grossly inflates the savings from each canceled contract. So we just launched our own site — the Musk Watch DOGE Tracker — that breaks everything down.

It's not hard. This is unacceptable. They won't stop at him.

If we can "avoid a government shutdown" by voting for this CR, then why is the entire Department of Education closed today? Why is USAID closed? Why are hundreds of billions in grant contracts frozen? We are already in the shutdown. And your votes DON'T stop it. In fact, they allow it to expand.

Mahmoud Khalil is a legal, permanent U.S. resident and is granted protection under the First Amendment. He is currently being detained without being charged with a crime. The reason for his arrest was due to his political speech. This is a violation of the First Amendment.

If Tesla's stock drops far enough, the bank loans Elon took out to buy Twitter lose their collateral and get called back immediately. Which is why Elon is panicking, Trump is panicking, and their shadow backers are all panicking.

The Billionaires have decided, that people with nothing, have too much. I’m not going to stop posting it.

DEI and good wages. What’s not to love?

Gutting the Department of Education will impact everything from internet access to school buses. Let’s not make it harder to learn.

I caught some rainbows while I was framing this one - it's so good I might cry. Pattern coming soon? I haven't decided if I want to do it as a freebie or a drop. #crossstitch #stitchsky #lotr

per week... #usa #classwar #americannightmare

Mahmoud Khalil should be at home with his pregnant wife. Instead, he's been illegally abducted & had his constitutional right to free speech & due process stripped. We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

Some have rightly pointed out that the Executive Order to combat antisemitism is numbered 14188. These nazis are so uncreative.

Go Sweden! 🇸🇪

Prem might be the most important journalist in America right now, the only person covering this story with the urgency it needs. Absurd that there isn't wall to wall coverage of this.

1. Finally some fight. "Have you no decency!?" asked Rep. Keating after a Republican rep called Sarah McBride "Mr. McBride" repeatedly. McBride shot back, calling the chairman "Madam Chairman." Fireworks erupted, Dems protested, and the hearing was cancelled. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Dems. Hold the line. Do not vote to fund DOGE (the government). Make the GOP fund the government or let them shut it down. They’re the majority.

I hope you read, really consider its implications, and share it widely. "It is often said: When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. If that is true, then only weeks into Donald Trump’s four-year term, we are approaching tyranny."

Americans are suffering under the weight of sky-high housing prices. Today, I’m re-introducing my bill with @warnock.senate.gov and @cleaver.house.gov to build 3 million new homes, bring down rents by 10%, and cut red tape that drives up costs. Congress must act.

Hanging in there, right? Keep it up 👊🏽

•SHOCKING. •TERRIFYING. •DEMANDS AMPLIFYING. Presenting: The Trump administration’s list of words and phrases these “anti-woke” weasels deem so highly objectionable they are essentially banning them from use in government agencies. Included on the list: Black, Native American,…

BREAKING: The Supreme Court takes up a case challenging Colorado's ban on conversion therapy for minors, after having previously turned down many other similar challenges. The law, which protects against efforts to change a minor's sexual orientation or gender identity, was upheld below.

Only a judge can revoke a green card. The fact is that the Trump Administration is unlawfully detaining a permanent resident and refusing to tell his wife, his lawyer, or literally anyone where he is. If they can do it to him, they can do it to anyone. We need to stand up before it’s too late.

it is truly wild that, as the authors here note, every argument against the plain text reading of the citizenship clause requires twists, turns, contortions and leaps that would make simone biles look like an amateur

If armed government agents were turning up at the homes of US citizens to detain and deport permanent residents because of the latter’s speech on abortion, conservative America, the GOP, Fox, would be up in arms. But it’s speech on Israel and Palestine… so… crickets. From the right. And Dems too!

Bernie is on FIRE!🔥

It would be a real shame if y'all shared this online, printed out a few and hung up all around the Eastern Shore of Maryland. 😉

This is some excellent good trouble

@aoc.bsky.social: "Listen, if your representative is not doing a town hall, give me a ring... I'll say it right here, right now: if a deep red Republican district wants to have an honest conversation, even if it's with someone they disagree with, I'm willing to do that."

We are working on launching an ALT DOGE website. It will soon feature a team page listing all of Elon’s staffers, our own wall of receipts (tracking the money he’s taking from America), and a section to help Americans keep tabs on the false claims on Doge’s website—which now exceed 52%.

Evil.

🔥 Rep. Al Green is not new to standing up

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

We know some Tennessee folks that might take @timwalz up on this offer 👀 (@MarshaBlackburn hasn’t had a town hall in 8 years)

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

Attention working-class Americans: Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security. Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

They’re cutting Medicaid

A Southwest Airlines plane was forced to abort its landing this morning after a private jet taxied in front of it across the runway at Midway Airport in Chicago. Whatever that guy from The Real World is doing with the FAA has gotta stop.

The Trump administration has pulled this campaign explaining the benefits of getting a flu vaccine. Let's make sure it still gets coverage on social media. 🧪

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...
