The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

The shortest honeymoon in history.

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

Some Russian guy claims that the Tangerine Tyrant was recruited as a spy by the KGB in 1987. They gave him the nickname: Krasnov, meaning "the red one". Wouldn't surprise me one bit. Let's start calling him Krasnov from now on... Krasnov.

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: A federal judge has blocked President Trump's executive order that sought to end government support for programs promoting diversity, equity and inclusion. LET’S FUCKING GO!!!! apnews.com/article/dei-...

If someone wanted to destroy the United States from within, would they do anything differently than what Trump is doing right now?

Here's another one - give it a watch!

NEW: The Associated Press is suing Trump Administration officials in federal court for banning AP reporters from events over the organization continuing to use the name 'Gulf of Mexico.' AP says the ban violates the First and Fifth Amendments.

I agree with Bill. Time to eat the rich! The 1% have gotten too big for their britches.

People i know who had a Tesla have sold them. Nobody wants a Tesla now

⚡️EU preparing military aid package for Kyiv worth $20.9 billion, Bloomberg reports. The additional military support would supply Kyiv with air defense systems, artillery ammunition, long-range missiles, and drones.

Just disgusting.

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.

who’s gonna do it, who will be the hero we needed

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

oh boy -- Rich McCormick bailed on CNN after his ill-fated town hall

🇺🇦 63% of Ukrainians support Zelensky's activities, and 74% consider him a patriot, according to a study by IBIF

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Canada represents everything the United States will never be, and the United States represents everything Canada will never become.

Associated Press sues White House over ban from Oval Office and Air Force One www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

If you don’t think Trump is taking over the US Mail to do away with mail-in voting, you haven’t been paying attention.

That sounds like a plan that I can get on board with! 🤭😅🤣

Dems want to progress into a radiant future of prosperity for all — Innovation in green energy, high speed rail, & combat climate change. maga wants to revert to the Jim Crow era where all power is consolidated by white nationalists who use their it to punish Black, brown, old, and sick Americans.

It’s a cult.

Happy Friday😍🩷These are the last items needed to clear for our Easter goodie bags🫶Would you kindly RT my list☺️ Most of my students come from low income families! #clearthelist @senatetim.bsky.social @bonhanson.bsky.social @pittsburghlady.bsky.social www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

In addition to being illegal, unconstitutional and wrong, Trump's lawlessness is also an extraordinary abuse of power as we the people have to pay his legal bills and ultimately for the damages his harms will bring. He is legally and financially liable for nothing. Break laws, get sued, we pay.

Ukraine was warned it faced an imminent shutdown of Elon Musk’s vital Starlink satellite internet system unless it signed the extortion deal on rare earth minerals, Reuters reports.

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.

Focus on the positive: this has overall been a very bad week for Trump! * he is falling in the polls - both his favorability and his policies * he lost his first Supreme Court case on firing an watchdog, setting the way for others fired to fight back 1/

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

General Brown is a brilliant, amazing leader. I worked at the Air Staff for three years and it was known that he read everything the staff wrote for him. He believes if an analyst took the time to write it, it’s his responsibility to read it. Very few generals do this.
