Drug dealers will get the death penalty? Surely he can't mean the rich white ones on Fifth Avenue? How would his boys get coke? It would be a shame if all the gangs had a truce and stepped up to fight for one cause.

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

What do voters think about Elon Musk and his rampage through the US Government? A banger episode of The Focus Group pod with @karaswisher.bsky.social ‬⁩ who blows my mind with a couple of insight about Elon’s endgame.

America's best idea: National parks. America's worst idea: Electing a President whose number one priority was staying out of jail.

Kristi Noem last night said the $200 million DHS ad campaign to scare immigrants and praise Trump was his idea — and that he specifically demanded the ads “thank me for closing the border.” I’m not sure why, but this is news you can only get at @rollingstone.com www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

DOGE's "savings" is like saying, "I've saved hundreds of dollars by never changing the oil or replacing the brakes in my old car."

HELL YEAH!! The largest organization of professional and amateur surfers has just SLAPPED Donald Trump with a major lawsuit to protect California beaches from off shore drilling. SEE YOU IN COURT!

This didn't take long.

Someone needs to buy up the first ten rows of the orchestra for Capitol Police officers to show up in uniform.

"While Florida insurers claimed to be losing money in the wake of hurricanes Irma and Michael, their parent companies and affiliates were making billions of dollars, according to a study obtained by the Herald/Times." And it appears that the DeSantis administration tried to keep it under wraps.

"Leland Dudek, a data analyst working in a small anti-fraud office, was suspected of sharing unauthorized access to information with representatives of Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service. Now he’s the acting Social Security commissioner." wapo.st/41qBKwR

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.

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

NEW: Trump's military purge likely isn't over A draft list of other officers who might be fired circulated this week on Capitol Hill, and it had a focus on Black and female officers The list isn’t final and is subject to the whims of POTUS and SecDef www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

DOGE’s accounting of its “savings” is riddled with sloppy mistakes. The five largest cuts that it listed on its website earlier this week were all incorrect — making the savings look far larger than they were in reality.

The EU stepping in when the Russian compromised leader of the United States won't.

A group of wolves is called a pack and a group of Nazis is called a CPAC.

Extortion, pure and simple.

Right after he was seen getting into a cab with Lauren Boebert at 2:30 AM after a party.

Elon Musk is a US Citizen BUT he is NOT an American. He doesn't believe in our values. Time for him to leave.

Trump is much fonder of the world's most brutal autocrats than he is America's allies -- or the countries that *were* our allies before he retook power.

I’m starting to think he’s got no second act. He’s like a bad one-hit wonder band from the 80s.

Seeing photos of Bannon sieg heiling, my second thought is he's doing an embarrassing lookame imitation of Musk, whom he hates.

“It’s getting a little uncomfortable even for me.”— Fuentes reacts to Bannon’s CPAC salute

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.

Predict that some reporter will ask Trump about a third term and he’ll say, “I guess a lot of people are saying I should do it.” The reporter will bring up the Constitution and he will say, “I don’t know about that. It’s a very popular idea, frankly.”

This is a shameful way to treat our fellow citizens who are public servants. This doesn’t make America great.

Thank you, Janet Mills. This is how all our elected officials everywhere should be confronting Trump's authoritarian "we are the law" sentiment. Head on.

The National Association of Secretaries of State, which represents the majority of states' top election officials, has sent an open letter to DHS secretary Kristi Noem, very politely asking her to not cut CISA's election security work and to also please keep them in the loop with this stuff.

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

History tells us of so many who fail to act, hesitate, or freeze and then pay the price. They sit back in shock or disbelief until it’s too late. They don’t rise to the moment. I have news for you. You are there right now. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

More than 8 out of 10 Americans aren't pleased Trump pardoned J6 convicts & thugs Don't stop taking about that! And when they get re-arrested or create havoc let that be known too! www.newsbreak.com/news/3823589...

“That contract wasn’t canceled by DOGE or anyone else,” he said. The contract expired on Dec. 31 and he decided to retire and not renew it, he said. “If they took credit for canceling the contract, they’re lying.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

If you haven’t seen this yet, please do. Because this morning something awesome happened that I’m going to say more about soon…. Hint: Georgia…. Town hall. It’s happening…. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Among those Trump and Musk fired at the FAA: - Lawyers who help keep drunk or reckless pilots out of the skies - Air traffic control support staff - Employees who track potential new flying hazards like cranes - Staffers who medically clear pilots to fly www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

Jessica: There was a huge drop in support for President Trump and for Elon Musk. Trump’s approval rating is down 5-7 points across four of these big polls. He’s underwater on managing the economy by 8 points. Did you see those town halls? Rich McCormick were booing him.

Trump just ordered the DOJ to eliminate the police misconduct database. Imagine losing your child to police brutality &finding out the officer had a violent history that wasn't tracked. That’s what happened to Eric Garners family. The officer who killed him had many complaints before that fatal day.

Can we just seize the Russian assets already and give them to Ukraine? Good lord just do it
