“After years of yelling that the “Russia hoax” was a witch hunt, Trump is now openly colluding with Putin…The U.S. government is aligning itself with autocrats and oligarchs and attempting to rebuild our country in their image.” www.thebulwark.com/p/whether-fo...

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

200 million dollars of waste.

I wonder how many of your constituents @davemccormick.bsky.social @fetterman.senate.gov paid SS taxes? Are you standing by doing nothing while Musk slashes and burns? #DoYourJob #YouWorkForUs Anxiety Mounts Among Social Security Recipients as DOGE Troops Settle In flip.it/X2xVOa

If someone wanted to destroy the United States from within, would they do anything differently than what Trump is doing right now?

Got to say I LOVE the Trump Administration negotiating to get Rare Minerals from Ukraine, for 2 reasons: 1. It reduces our dependence on China for Lithium and Graphite (China provides near 70% of world supply) 2. More than 50% of those minerals are in Russian Annexed land.

@fetterman.senate.gov @davemccormick.bsky.social Do you value TRUTH or LIES? Think carefully. If you continue to stand by mute as Trump parrots Kremlin talking points about the war in Ukraine, you are showing your TRUE colors. WE pay your salary, NOT Trump. #DoYourJob nypost.com/2025/02/20/o...

DOGE claims firings target low performers and new employees. The reality is far from it, according to documents and interviews: cnn.it/417VuEn

@fetterman.senate.gov @davemccormick.bsky.social Putin is a war criminal. Trump must be rebuked for parroting Kremlin talking points. It's time for the US to decide whether we want to be for or against democracy.

Government workers are people, people are talent, and talent can't just be manifested at will. DOGE is costing us a generation of talent and knowledge in public service. New from @samsteindc.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/the-doge-b...

@davemccormick.bsky.social @fetterman.senate.gov Trump is parroting Putin's LIES. Putin attacked Ukraine FIRST. Can there be any doubt Trump is a Russian asset? I stand *against* Trump & Putin. I stand *with* Ukraine.

@davemccormick.bsky.social @fetterman.senate.gov The NY Post is right. The 50% payback demand is the stuff of dictators, not advocates for REAL democracy. If you do not call out Trump for his bullying of Ukraine, you are not fit to serve Pennsylvania or this country. nypost.com/2025/02/18/o...

@davemccormick.bsky.social @johnfetterman.com When are you guys going to DO YOUR JOB and stop this flaming dumpster fire of an administration from RISKING AMERICAN LIVES AND SAFETY??? www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/c...

@apnews.com @mcuban.bsky.social @fetterman.senate.gov @davemccormick.bsky.social If the WH - a taxpayer-funded government entity - selectively bans the AP but no others over its reporting style, isn't that a violation of the First Amendment? Welcome to #TheUnitedStatesofRussia & #EmperorTrump.

Yes. But they are missing that much of this has to be performative. That’s what Trump is great at and Dems are awful at. You can’t just tell voters , you have to know how to sell voters. Trump gives sales pitches, Dems show charts. One goes viral. The other is ignored and forgotten

Oligarch #HerrMusk gets a sweetheart deal, with no Inspectors General to oversee the contract or its issuance, to sell his armored vehicles back to the very government he is otherwise dismantling. Welcome to the #UnitedStatesOfRussia. @davemccormick.bsky.social @fetterman.senate.gov

Because you're stupid and choose to stay that way.

"It was an unusual scene in the Oval Office. Elon Musk stood and held forth for a half hour to the assembled press corps, while Donald Trump sat at his desk, occasionally chiming in, but mostly looking up at Elon with what seemed to me to be increasing irritation." www.thebulwark.com/p/when-presi...

The arrest happened in Miami-Dade County in Florida, despite the teacher's reported Dreamer status.

"They are afraid to speak freely. They sound more like dissidents in places like China or Russia than like Americans. They fear they are being monitored and targeted for God-only-knows what kind of accusation or retribution." Our public servants.

"Substitute 'the federal government' for 'Gotham' and that’s pretty much how Musk views his mission." Elon Musk and Donald Trump are like Christopher Nolan's Bane. Today's Triad from @jvl.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/elon-musk-...

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.

You think Iraq and Afghanistan were a quagmire? Just wait for the entire Arab world uniting in opposition to US colonization of Gaza. The US will spend hundreds of billions on this escapade and America will be embroiled in yet another "forever war." @davemccormick.bsky.social @fetterman.senate.gov

"The constitutional question of whether the president can delegate authority to a billionaire campaign donor to shut down federal agencies is not one Republicans are very interested in answering."

@fetterman.senate.gov @davemccormick.bsky.social Are you two on board with this INSANITY? When are you going to reign in this mentally ill megalomaniac? #TheUnitedStatesOfRussia www.reuters.com/world/trump-...

Isaiah 10:1-2 NET Those who enact unjust policies are as good as dead, those who are always instituting unfair regulations, to keep the poor from getting fair treatment, and to deprive the oppressed among my people of justice, so they can steal what widows own, and loot what belongs to orphans.

@fetterman.senate.gov ate.gov @davemccormick.bsky.social If you vote to confirm Gabbard, RFK Jr., or Patel the decline of everything that once made this country great is on your heads. International engagement. Gone. Science-based healthcare. Gone. Russian disinformation. Embraced. #ChooseWisely

@senatorbillcassidy.bsky.social Coward. You caved. The fallout won't happen tomorrow, or next month, or even next year. The fallout of RFK Jr's anti-science crusade will land on your children, your grandchildren, and my grandchildren. May God have mercy on your cowardly soul.

The start of week three:

@fetterman.senate.gov @davemccormick.bsky.social Congress is clearly content to be a bunch of complicit eunuchs. Trump controls the levers of law enforcement and #HerrMusk is blatantly gaining illegal access to confidential data on American citizens. Welcome to the #UnitedStatesOfRussia.

@davemccormick.bsky.social How does it feel to be a pathetic, neutered, useless member of a so-called co-equal branch of government while #HerrMusk and #TheKingOfAmerica illegally overrun and raid independent agencies that Congress created? Did we elect you to step aside while Musk runs amok?
