It makes no sense to throw away a $20 billion dollar investment in Hubble and JWebb These tools are already paid for, there's no reason to let them sit idle after all this effort. The cuts are illegal as they were NOT approved by congress

In case anyone was wondering what happened at CPAC this week…

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

Senate Democrats launch portal for whistleblowers in Trump administration: Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.), the ranking member of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, said they are launching a new portal for whistleblowers to expose wrongdoing and…

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

Black Americans fought the war to establish our fundamental God given right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and won. 200 years of enslavement, the Civil War, 100 years of Jim Crow. Now, the supremacists want a rematch. They forgot who the fuck they are dealing with. #TOTALDEFIANCE

GOP Senator Moran is speaking out against the disastrous Trump administration move to shut down USAID. We need more Republicans in Congress who understand that this agency is vital to our national security to speak out NOW.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

Erasing women off the planet!

“At least six DOGE agents [got] access to all personnel systems..Three more gained access about a week later..The data..includes a massive trove of..information for millions of federal employees” Who are these “agents” What security clearance do they have Are they susceptible to being compromised

Rep. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social on the “fork in the road” 🇺🇸 🔥

We have to be direct about Trump’s plan in Gaza: He is calling for ethnic cleansing. Congress must stand firm against his demand for war crimes. Palestinians have a right to live with equal rights and freedom on their land.

GOP quashes Oversight Democrats' effort to subpoena Elon Musk: Republicans on the House Oversight Committee quickly quashed an effort by Democrats to subpoena Elon Musk to appear before the panel to answer questions about a series of actions impacting federal agencies and their workforce. The move…

Texas Dem says he’ll bring articles of impeachment against Trump over Gaza: Texas Democratic Rep. Al Green said Wednesday he plans to bring articles of impeachment against President Trump after he suggested the U.S. should take over Gaza. “The movement to impeach the president has begun,” Green…

The American people did not elect the world's wealthiest man to have unchecked power over our government.

Following the CDC's removal of critical health data and the potential approval of RFK Jr. as Health Secretary, it is crucial to access accurate health information from independent sources such as the WHO, Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins University, and peer-reviewed journals.

#SHUTDOWNSENATE Share liberally. People all over America need to see those crowds!

The US once tried to take over Iran It ended disastrously We tried to take over Iraq It ended disastrously We tried to take over Afghanistan It ended disastrously Now Trump has announced a proposal to take over Gaza See where this is going? Whatever happened to “we are not nation building?”

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

Wow. Jamie Raskin discusses a possible impeachment of Donald Trump for illegal executive overreach. “Find me two Republicans and I’ll go to work tomorrow.” Would you support impeachment against Donald Trump?

Firing civil servant employees without due process, disbanding agencies created by statute, etc. Trump is violating laws. The real question is what can be done about it. Judges need to quickly rule on cases that come before them. When Trump ignores their orders, contempt imprisonment must follow.

CA will not allow Trump to destroy public education. During his first term, I stood up to Betsy DeVos when she attacked public schools. Trump and DeVos’ end goal is to auction off public education assets to for-profit entities. Now Trump is dropping all pretense. We will protect our students.

The Trump administration is still freezing many climate and infrastructure grants despite two separate federal court orders barring it from doing so.

BREAKING: We are suing HHS for the removal of critical health info and data from websites. The removal creates a dangerous gap in scientific research and threatens public health. The Trump executive order that led to this purge puts American lives in danger.

Since the FBI appears to be the only agency that is both still functioning and not headed by a lunatic, the Washington Field Office needs to open an investigation into the breach of the computer systems at Treasury, stat

The Minnesota GOP has announced a recall campaign against each Democratic member of the Minnesota House of Representatives as they continue to boycott the session for a fourth week.

Not only is this poetic justice, but it hurts their treasonous leader the most because his only job before going to prison was making Proud Boys shirts and apparel.

FBI Tells Trump To Go Fck Himself: The assistant director in charge of the FBI’s New York field office reportedly has put his people on notice that they’re under attack, in a “battle” in which “good people … are being targeted.”Not by al Qaeda or ISIS. By the president of the United States.…

Canada just signed a trade deal with Ecuador so the orange juice options will increase now Florida Oranges aren't being bought. Oasis is a Canadian brand in the mean time and Minute Maid is bottled here using Brazilian oranges.

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

University of Minnesota President Rebecca Cunningham said the university remains committed to all programs supporting the community’s diversity, equity and inclusion. But not everyone on the campus is convinced the university is handling this contentious moment as it should.

“We don’t have a 4th branch of government called Elon Musk.” Thank you @raskin.house.gov

A man identifying himself as a career employee of USAID (but not senior executive service) declines to allow members of Congress from the Democratic Party entry to the aid agency's headquarters.

REP. RASKIN: “We don’t have a 4th branch of government called Elon Musk.” 🇺🇸

"Europeans who witnessed democracy crumble before their eyes have some words of advice for Americans now entering the second Trump era.... stay united, safeguard your civic institutions and never, never give up." www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Why target USAID when it’s <1% of budget? “USAID funds democracy-promotion programs around the world, including in European countries where right-wing populist movements are thriving. Musk has become an ally of those movements, some of whose leaders have specifically targeted the agency…” Gift link

Dems are fighting back in the courts! House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries announced that there are currently more than 20 lawsuits challenging 11 of Donald Trump’s executive orders. More of this!
