Secretary Pete explains the incompetence & danger ⚠️ of this orange man’s administration! #FAFO in progress!

The fact that Witkoff was in the chat while being in Moscow means that russia knows everything that was being discussed there. But russia didn’t need Witkoff for that because Tulsi Gabbard was also in the group

As bad as the Houthi PC Group Chat is, and as bad as the DOGE stories leaking by the minute are...what's happening under the radar is so, so much worse.

What you have to understand about Pete Hegseth copying and pasting war plans into Signal is that it almost certainly means he’s got classified documents on his personal UNSECURE devices. Signal isn't on a secure device...are our war plans on his personal devices? @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social

Oh, honey . . . just because you have to pay women to find you sexually attractive doesn't mean *anyone* has to pay people to find you politically repulsive.

Crockett: Pam Bondi, if you have an issue with terrorism, maybe you should talk to your boss about locking back up those guys that he let out that participated in January 6th.

IRS Predicts DOGE Lost Half a Trillion Dollars for the USA "In about eight weeks DOGE managed to lose the US government...more than half of what goes to all non-defense discretionary spending" Are we "efficient" or "great" yet? talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/irs-p...

@gtconway.bsky.social is not backing down. If he has any fear of retribution, he’s not allowing it to shape his decisions or what he says. That’s incredibly important at this critical moment in history. Paul Weiss isn’t made of the same stuff. youtu.be/bi25VIQcbN8

Undocumented immigrants pay nearly $100B in taxes and receive no benefits or representation. Trump is about to explode the deficit by using the SSA to find and deport them. www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/20...

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks… “The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government. 🧵

"Give the power to the states" was also the pro-slavery argument in the 1850s -- and the pro-segregation argument in the 1950s.

Trump says he will withhold federal tax dollars to Maine colleges unless the Gov of Maine personally apologizes to him.

Judge REYES on a tear, telling DOJ she won't be "gaslit" by effort to say their ban on transgender people in the military isn't actually a "ban." She notes SecDef Hegseth literally called it a ban on X. "You're saying one thing in public. You're saying a different thing in court," Reyes said.

Every American has the right to know what DOGE is doing with their personal information. I submitted a Privacy Act request to DOGE, demanding they tell me why they have my Social Security number and direct deposit information.

The attacks on higher education—funding and free speech—are incalculable. American higher ed has been one of the nation’s jewels, attracting over a million students from around the world each year.

ICE is a terrorist organization

The good news is that there *are* people meeting the moment. youtu.be/EJxRtjma7lc

Harriet Hageman got booed to oblivion last night in her own town hall for pumping up Doge so hard that even her loyal suckers woke up and smelled the bullshit—about five months too late!

WATCH: WILSON COUNTY Rep. Susan Lynn called out by for doing the “YMCA” dance to mock Tennesseans as they protested the cruel Lamberth bill to keep undocumented kids out of schools

Would like to report some gang tattoos.

Ask yourself: Why would anyone who wasn’t an asset of the Russian government do this? Why would any decent human being do this?

In one of the most important cases to watch, federal district court finds Elon Musk actions (in this case toward #USAID) in violation of the Appointments Clause - sufficient to issue a preliminary injunction. A very big deal. www.courtlistener.com/docket/69636...

WATCH: “Diana, you guys are cutting health care to make way for tax cuts for the rich— whether you know it or not.” We caught up with Harshbarger who made it clear when she promised to protect her constituents’ health care at a town hall she did not mean it😕 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DHWccKX...

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

They want the unreviewable power to grab people and render them to a foreign gulag.

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

So 77 million Americans voted for a vengeful convicted felon who’s pursued a life of crime and promised he’d exploit the presidency for retribution. No one should be surprised this sociopath, immunized by the Supreme Court, is now acting in an utterly lawless manner.

From interview of Lee Bollinger, 1st Amendment scholar who served as dean of @UMichLaw, president of @UMich, and president of Columbia University. www.chronicle.com/article/were...

One trip to MAL could fund one NIH grant for 5 years…every time he golfs, remember that trying to find new treatments for horrible diseases is at the bottom of his priority list 😡

I am old enough to remember when Columbia University was occupied by students who protested against the Vietnam war. #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news...

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

HERE IT IS… Elon Musk wants to slash “entitlement spending” to cut the budget—which means Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are on the chopping block. He claims the waste is in “entitlement spending,” and lies that undocumented immigrants are collecting benefits.

#GVerse 🏳️‍🌈💙🇺🇸

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more. The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law. No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

True facts.

FUN FACT.

Every lawyer should be required to read this. commons.stmarytx.edu/cgi/viewcont...

Isaac Stanley-Becker with a terrifying article on how DOGE's cuts have plunged the FAA into "complete chaos": www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Part of Donald’s initial appeal to his base was that he was supposedly not beholden to any special interests. Even if that were true (and it wasn’t - just ask Vlad), he is 100 percent beholden to Musk now, and only the willfully ignorant could possibly be ok with that.

That is exactly true.

I got your waste, fraud, and abuse right here
