Some updates: 1. A federal judge extended a restraining order blocking the National Institutes of Health from cutting research funds until she rules on a permanent injunction. 2. The IRS will not allow a member of Elon Musk’s team to access individual tax returns.

Kudos to GOP Senator Thom Tillis for calling out Trump’s dangerous policy of surrendering to war criminal Putin. Now, he and other pro-Ukraine Republicans should start using their power as U.S. senators to restrain Trump as much as possible.

Trump was willing to stand up there for a few minutes to pretend to care about black history, but hugging the guy was a deal breaker.

The GOP convicted felon has launched a war on the American people & our constitution. We have guardrails to stop a rogue president. But are our lawmakers? Happy to be part of it & obey, in the foolish belief that THEY will be spared. Wait for the final irony. #Opposition #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Waiting to hear from all the “Trump-Russia was a hoax” crew and somehow they’ve evaporated into nothingness

Heads up, everyone. I'm going to do a thread tomorrow on the contractors & huge money behind the concentration camps Trump is now building. One which will hold 10,000 internees at Fort Bliss on the Texas-New Mexico border. Yes, this is real and it is coming. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

WAKE UP!!!!! It's all FEAR PORN. How many transgender athletes are there in the U.S.? Out of 510,000 athletes competing at the collegiate level, there are FEWER THAN TEN who publicly identify as transgender, Charlie Baker, the N.C.A.A. president, said in January
