Trump demands we 'shut up.' That means it’s time to get louder. 👉 www.meidasplus.com/p/trump-dema...

Auchincloss: "Zelenskyy flew to Washington, but he walked into the Kremlin."

Auchincloss: "Republicans are not stepping up and saying the very basic sentence of 'Ukraine is right, Russia is wrong.'"

Auchincloss to Rep. Tony Gonzalez after Gonzalez touts the popularity of DOGE: "Is it popular to cut healthcare for the 40% of kids in this country who rely on Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for people who don't need tax cuts?

Unlike the deferred resignation program, this is legal, just very dumb.

“Dear @aoc.bsky.social I Chair the Democratic Party in Shelby Co. in Jim Jordan's district. I would be glad to host you. We met with his staff today in a cramped room because he won't come. I'll pay your flight and accommodations. DM me. We'll talk modern agriculture too.” — Christopher Gibbs 🏆

I’d like to announce my forthcoming US history book, covering a decisive but tumultuous era in that country’s history, titled “The trade policies of the United States: 10:30 am to 1:30 pm on Friday, March 7, 2025” It will be 400 pages.

How ominous are economic indicators? Well, this is what they’re saying on *Fox* these days: “The boom times are over.” “We are sliding towards a recession.” “The jobs picture is weakening!” Via @gregsargent.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/1925...

"The American antisemitism now merges with the Russian antisemitism and reinforces it. The idea that Zelens'kyi is not a real president, and that his government is therefore not a real government, has been a very specific Russian antisemitic trope from the beginning."

For 2,500 years, women have been fighting for their place in our democracies. Ahead of International Women's Day, we trace the slow path towards equality.

“The Telegraph understands that the president is considering redeploying troops from Germany to Hungary, which has maintained a close relationship with Russia.” www.telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/...

This Sunday, the whole country needs to spring forward from 1939.

The GOP is not a conservative movement. It's a far right authoritarian cult.

Playbook | Sources report that instead of a chainsaw-style approach, the next round of DOGE cuts will be surgically focused on agencies that regulate Elon Musk's companies or try to collect his taxes.

In this Ohio diner, a booster still means the wealthy alum who forces Ohio State to admit a defensive end with a 1.6 GPA. But they do know this: The faulty SpaceX rocket parts were definitely made by a woman or a minority.

Moulton: He doesn’t have any sons or daughters who served in the military after 9/11. If just one of them had signed up, maybe he would know that we served on the ground alongside Canadian troops, French troops, troops from the UK, the Danes, the Poles—And you know, they lost a lot of lives there

A key takeaway from Columbia should be that compliance does not buy safety. Unis are viewing the admin's attack on higher ed as a prisoner's dilemma (best strategy: comply), leading to a collectively worse outcome. The only way out is collective action, & unlike true PD, unis can coordinate action.

This just in: The independent atty appointed by Judge Ho to advise him on the DOJ’s motion to dismiss the case against Mayor Adams says, “all roads here—including the same separation-of-powers principles that constrain the Court's options—lead to dismissal with prejudice”

Scoop: The Trump Administration now says that it can install whoever it wants at independent agencies, absent Congress talkingpointsmemo.com/news/exclusi...

Stalin blamed the kulaks for their own starvation. Anyone who blames Zelensky for Trump's decision to cut arms and intelligence has succumbed to the same logic.

Trump plans to sign an executive order barring certain student loan borrowers from eligibility for Public Service Loan Forgiveness. This popular federal program forgives a portion of student debt for individuals who work in government or qualifying nonprofit jobs for ten years.

We hope you enjoyed watching our rocket explode. May we interest you in an electric vehicle that may also explode?

The man is human pollution, America's id. The international community is going to rally against this country to make sure we're hurt for decades because of all of this and we'll have deserved it.

We are all in the debris field of a SpaceX mishap

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

While deadly measles outbreaks spread across the United States, the nation’s top health official has been frolicking in the wilderness — hiking his days away in California. RFK Jr. boasted about his outdoor adventures, taking to Facebook and Instagram to share the fun with his millions of…

Hiding from their constituents wasn’t enough — now we have a House Republican admitting that he doesn’t want to hear from the people he represents. These big babies will all be back home next week for recess. Let’s keep making the GOP squirm. Join our nationwide organizing: indivisible.org/muskorus

Again, can he actually do this? www.cnn.com/2025/03/06/b...

As someone who recently had a bone marrow transplant to treat cancer, I’m no longer protected by my childhood vaccines. Until I’m re-vaccinated, I can contract measles, mumps, polio, & other diseases. Many adults like me are as vulnerable as children to these deadly viruses. @vinguptamd.bsky.social

We spent nearly 8 minutes this morning trying to set the record straight on a number of health matters. I’d expect the Surgeon General or NIH Director to do this, but since they’re not, here it is in 4 clips. #medsky

Ed Martin is a wannabe fascist.

With his permission, I'm sharing Dean Treanor's response to Ed Martin's letter:

Please listen and share—this is a very serious situation. This is extremely alarming! The Trump administration, across two agencies, is considering bringing criminal charges against employees simply for doing their jobs.

For those who wanted to share this video off platform. Here it is on YouTube youtu.be/OiPa9VY9PH8?...

He’s bloody crazy.

BREAKING Trump is expected to issue an order aimed at abolishing the Education Department. The order directs Linda McMahon to "take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure of the Education Department.” Fully unwinding it would require a filibuster-proof, 60-vote majority in the Senate.

The idea the president alone can levy taxes on a whim and spend it as he pleases without any congressional approval is the kind of thing so beyond the pale it's not unconstitutional, it's anti-constitutional. It is overturning in starkest terms the central rallying cry of the American Revolution.
