This is how Dems on the Hill need to message on Trump’s economy instead of pussyfooting around! “I would challenge every Republican… to explain how any of what Donald Trump has done in his 51 days in office has helped improve the lives of Americans.” - @tarasetmayer.bsky.social Watch this…

N.Y. Times, June 8, 1939.

NEWS: A federal judge has ordered the urgent release of DOGE records, citing the office's "unprecedented" power and "unusual secrecy." Judge Cooper wants "rolling" productions of records to begin within weeks. Details TK ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

When Elon has everything that would be required for humans to ever live on Mars, that same technology could actually be used to repair planet Earth, thus negating the need for humans to go to Mars, this is a huge ass waste of U.S. tax dollars.

My husband ran a successful business and used our local rural post office daily. My elderly neighbor’s meds come through the rural post office. The post office is one of the only places left open in my rural community. Losing it could quite literally kill my town and my neighbors.

Extraordinary comment from Tory MP Graham Stuart: “We have to consider the possibility that President Trump is a Russian asset. If so, Trump's acquisition is the crowning achievement of Putin's FSB career.” (Narrator: It’s extraordinary because our own gd government didn’t say it first.)

This MF’er just brought Andrew Tate, a rapist and human trafficker, to Florida! 🤬 The hypocrisy is astounding!

NOTE: The opponents of DEI are purging anyone who is not a white man from military leadership This is not about merit; it’s about normalizing racism and misogyny

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Now THIS is true leadership on the world stage. In stark contrast to the weak, ignorant clown we currently have in the White House. #SlavaUkraini 🇬🇧 🇺🇦

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

A lot of people are going to die from this

I’ve been suggesting on TV and podcasts—without actual evidence(!)—that it may turn out that DOJ will wind up not having enough lawyers to defend all the lawsuits challenging this administration’s illegal conduct. Turns out it seems already to be true. 👉

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

Media reports today Trump/Musk are gutting Social Security Admin. Next they will claim millions on SS are actually fraud and toss people off. But when you try to get back on SS, there will be no one in SS office to answer you. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/twice-this...

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social why are you not posting on here first ? You have some great things to say. You are trying some great things. Yet you post on X where 100pct of the replies are meaningless and hateful. It's not all roses here, but the engagement has depth and real convos happen

Thank you to @maddow.msnbc.com for promoting @bsky.app on air and complimenting it. Her on air support is truly important

Did You Know? The inventor of the bestselling Super Soaker was a Black man—and Hasbro tried to cheat him out of his royalties. In 2013, Lonnie Johnson, a nuclear engineer and former NASA scientist, won a $73 million settlement from Hasbro for underpaid royalties. Johnson holds over 80 patents.

. 🚨 WAKE UP PEOPLE! 🚨 Elon Musk has ILLEGALLY FIRED: ❌ USDA employees during a BIRD FLU outbreak 🦠🐔 ❌ The FAA chair while planes are DROPPING FROM THE SKY ✈️🔥 ❌ Officials protecting us from a NUCLEAR ATTACK 💥 At this point how is this NOT an attack on the 🇺🇸? WHY IS HE STILL ALLOWED TO DO THIS?! 🤬

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

A point to consider.

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

📌There has not been a president in my lifetime who has purposefully inflicted pain on people like this one. He is completely dead inside.
