I’m positive you all saw the video from Coeur d’Alene, where a woman was pulled out of her seat and arrested by men who claimed to be sheriff deputies, but were not in uniform. I need the men to do something: When you see a woman being abused, step in. Step up. Get in the way. Put your body to use.

I think it is increasingly clear to most, that beneath all the cosmetic changes, this is who’s still there.

All Pete Hegseth talks about is being a warrior and instilling a warrior mindset in the military. Personal courage is the cornerstone of the warrior ethos. I wonder how that fits with being such a coward as to fire generals with 35 or more years of service in a press release on a Friday night.

Reality check

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-...

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

Bannon Salute at Right-Wing Event Sparks Outcry, Even on French Right www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u... Bannon a hateful man who has traveled the world sowing nationalism and hate!

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

This gives me joy.

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

It’s FUKKKING tiring already!

Knowledge is power…

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat. Now is a time for courage. www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...

Jamie Raskin says he’s contemplating a class action on behalf of all Americans.

DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY SCIENCE: 1. Chickenpox 2. Diphtheria 3. Measles 4. Pertussis 5. Pneumococcal Infection 6. Polio 7. Tetanus 8. Typhoid 9. Yellow Fever 10. Smallpox DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY RFK JR. OR PRAYER: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Yes indeed

Two million federal workers losing their jobs what do MAGAs think that will do to the economy, one guess and it’s not lowering their egg prices 😒

NASA Ordered To Purge Women Leaders From Websites: We really shouldn’t be surprised, but NASA has been ORDERED to purge mention of women in leadership from it’s websites. No doubt to be followed by a purge of actual women except for a token or two and one in particular. I’ll get to that. It seems…

RFK Jr doesn't know how Medicaid works And refused to rule out making cuts to Medicaid So billionaires can get more tax breaks Even if it means children and seniors lose their healthcare insurance He is FAR too dangerous to head the Department of Health and Human Services Hands Off Our Medicaid

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

I was just outside the Treasury Department where Elon Musk has launched a full scale authoritarian takeover. My message to Musk is simple: get your hands off our money and get the hell out.

Elon Musk's henchmen entered the U.S. Treasury Department's headquarters and strong-armed civil service workers to gain full access to the system that cuts checks for all congressionally authorized government payments. Watching a billionaire seize the checkbook of the government is called a coup.

Please Participate If You Can. Kindly Repost! 💙😎

Republicans are the enemy.

This guy's in charge of shaping policy for airline safety. Scary stuff.

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

Outside of USAID headquarters, Senator Brian Schatz: "If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law. You cannot wave away an agency that you don't like or that you disagree with by executive order, or by literally storming into the building and taking over the servers." BOOM!
