In case you're wondering... it's been 17 days since a reporter was added to a Signal group chat where our government officials were sharing war plans. And nobody has been fired... Don't stop talking about SignalGate

In 72 days, Donold has taken 14 days off and spent $26 million of taxpayer money at his golf clubs.

Moment of clarity today in the Senate where Republicans sided with big banks & against customers. Higher fees, lower transparency. Now it goes to the House - so call your Member of Congress to ask how they’ll vote!

I had legit completely forgotten this.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

The provision of the 14th amendment that the Supreme Court unanimously wrote out of the constitution existed for a reason. Its drafters knew what would happen if you allowed insurrectionists back into power.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

Senate Democrats are weak and ready traitors to their constituents. Vote every one out... They are sacrificing our elders for bullshit.

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.

Two market meltdowns. One common denominator.

Here is my question: what the heck are we supposed to be doing, I know we are calling Congress, going to protests...but what are we supposed to be doing to overcome this? Full revolt? How would that even work...

Why is not more of a scandal that the US government is not paying its bills?

“The Social Security Administration announced it would immediately begin processing retroactive payments and will send increased monthly payments to people affected by the Windfall Elimination Provision and Government Pension Offset… apnews.com/article/soci...

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

Democrats should go to all these ruby red and vulnerable GOP districts where voters are upset at Trump and Musk and court them. Full court press.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

#IndivisibleRI rally was today at RI State House! We need more visibility! So many I spoke to had no idea and don't know where to find protest info! @hcrichardson.bsky.social @altnps.bsky.social @marisakabas.bsky.social

How many plane crashes and mass shootings will it take for Americans to care about their own safety? 🤔

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

The U.S. Department of Labor recovered about $660 million in wages owed to workers across the country from 2021 to 2023.
