In today's edition of "Not A Drag Queen!" patch.com/florida/brad...

"My message to the rest of the Democratic Party is if you are not willing to meet that bar, then step aside for somebody who will. Because we're at a moment right now where we do need people who are willing to fight, willing to show some spine, willing to break through in this media environment."

Almost all NOAA Research websites that rely on cloud services - including Amazon, Google and WordPress - are poised to disappear at midnight ET Saturday after a contract was targeted for "early termination." Labs may also feel the effects. Story for @bloomberg.com (free link):

They want to imprison anyone for burning down a Tesla. For 20 years. How much for burning down the stock market?

you have to be genuinely stupid as fuck to think american companies are going to respond to tariffs by building factories and moving manufacturing to the US. i don't know how else to say it. you have to be genuinely braindead

If you live in Wisconsin or in the 6th congressional district of Florida you’ll have a chance to do something the rest of us only dream about doing... [It's also an election day in many other parts of the country, too.] https://robertreich.substack.com/p/if-you-live-in-wisconsin-or-floridas

No lies told here.

America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence. Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

For me, there are now just two great American magazines - The New Yorker and the Atlantic

Isn't this what he and his co-horts said about Biden?

Make this go viral! Her husband’s life was put at risk by the Signal texts.

FROM THE MASTER INVESTOR HIMSELF…👇 Thoughts?! 🤔

Zero accountability and nobody is going to sack him. This is America now. Criminals, sex pests, drunks and clowns. That’s your government.

Pete Buttigieg has entered the chat.

Honestly, put the hood back on this one.

Unbelievable!! But actually believable at the same time.

Reminder. Pass it on.

Trump is relentlessly "truthing" threats against judges who don't rule in his favor. There’s no bigger red flag than defying the rule of law to expand one’s power. This presidency is starting to look a lot like a dictatorship.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

What a different world we could have.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Let’s call it what it is: Trump and congressional Republicans are trying to cut health care, food assistance, and education for working Americans to pay for tax cuts to their billionaire donors.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Today Congressman Mark Pocan TOOK THE GLOVES OFF. “Donald Trump is full of shit…and he needs to get the fuck out of Mar-a-Lago and talk to real people. “Elon Musk is a grifter. He makes Donald Trump look like elementary school level grifter. This guy has a PHD in theft from the American people.”

REMINDER: In 2 days, THIS Friday, February 28. NOT 1 PENNY SPENT. We can DO this. I'm IN, are YOU?

I have not seen this on any mainstream media yet. Hopefully today? @maddow.msnbc.com @nbcnews.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com
