Eggs are $10/dozen, and House Republicans want to cut food stamps to give rich people a $4.5 TRILLION tax cut.

"The symbol for resistance is the uppercase Greek letter omega (Ω). It's used to represent the unit of electrical resistance, called ohms." What if we adopted it as our resistance symbol?

Mr Pres, YOU are not the govt. You serve the people by leading the federal govt. This is a govt OF, BY & FOR the people.

T in ME: what an a**

US and Russian participants met in Switzerland for unofficial talks about the Ukraine war in recent months, including as recently as last week, three sources with knowledge of the matter said reut.rs/4ic373v

Millions of dumb Americans who think they know everything are going to have to learn the hard way now.

The Republican war on health care is alive and well. Republicans have one goal in mind: rip away coverage for millions in order to provide tax breaks for their billionaire friends. #DontCutMyMedicaid

I have been as mad as anyone about our soulless health insurance "system" in this country. Protests & even civil disobedience are understandable.

The president says not many people would have the "courage" to do what El*n's doing. That's not courage. That's foolish abandon. I know people like that.

"[Musk] does not check the veracity of such claims before sharing them. This week, he shared an image posted by a UK far-right account purportedly showing a 'migrant mob' storming a Birmingham hospital with axes and blades. In fact, the image was a still from a Batman film."/1

This is when the true statement, "Trump lies" is very important. They're going to try to pass a budget bill, too big for us to read all of it, real fast, w only 51 votes, & only later will we find the real cuts to SS, Medicare & Medicaid. Don't believe Trump or Rs on this.

The movies that will be made about this stupidity. .."DOGE’s decisions included putting employees on leave because of alleged ties to diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives — even if all they did was participate in a DEI program that had been endorsed by the first Trump administration.../1

Yuuup

NEW: U.S. consumer sentiment plunges—down 10% from January over tariff and inflation fears. Most people I know think the economy is cooked thanks to Trump’s policies—designed to help the rich and screw working folks. He’s not doing shit to fix the economy or lower costs. Just broken promises.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social srsly, tell your publisher to hold off! We really need you night & day in the Senate fending off the loss of our nation!! This is no time for a book tour.

@corybooker.bsky.social @booker.senate.gov @andykimnj.bsky.social @mikiesherrill.bsky.social The US POSTALSERVICE can't be sucked up by King Trump! It belongs to the people per the Constitution! Please ANSWER Trump's plan to delete its board & take it over TODAY.

No, no, no. The portal service doesn't belong to the king. It belongs to the people: it's in the Constitution! Trump expected to take control of USPS, fire postal board, officials say www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

If only the news agencies covered the election cycle honestly, we would've avoided a lot of this kind of shit.

Yeesss!!!! Thank you! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/o...

Step 1 in taming the deficit: no tax cuts. No tax cuts!

When i was young, we used to mock the Soviet Union & China for making their people insist that what wasn't true, was. They recited falsehoods & insisted on them. Never thought an American president would do it to us. (Russia started the Ukraine War.)

Why am I seeing Markwayne Mullins everywhere? He sounds crazy.

The "deep state" is a cult belief.

Why did "DOGE" begin dismantling tge US federal govt with USAID? adst.org/2021/06/amer...

Well, now we'll see how bad it can get.

@booker.senate.gov @andykimnj.bsky.social @mikiesherrill.bsky.social Please STOP the Trump admin from cutting the Office of Community Planning and Development, part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which assists communities rebuilding >disasters. There will be MORE.
