Jessica Tarlov said support for Trump and Musk is tanking, and even Dogecoin is taking a hit. People are mad at Musk, and Trumpā€™s struggling on the economy front. Wait until Trump and Musk cancel their Social Security and Medicaid. #ProudBlue #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

MUSK LOSES BIG IN GERMANY Germanyā€™s CDU/CSU wins big, while the far-right AfD underperforms in secondā€”despite backing from Elon Musk and JD Vance. AfD is now likely to be completely shut out of the governing coalition.

He was too Black for the moment.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Polls in Germany have closed. Exit polls say Friedrich Merz's center-right party, CDU, has 28.5% of the vote. The far-right AfD has 20% (highest support for the far right since WW2), and current PM Olaf Schulz's SPD party has 16.5%. Merz has promised NOT to form a coalition with the AfD. šŸ¤ž

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social why are you not posting on here first ? You have some great things to say. You are trying some great things. Yet you post on X where 100pct of the replies are meaningless and hateful. It's not all roses here, but the engagement has depth and real convos happen

Just in case.

200 million dollars of waste.

So, this is a private security detail & not a law enforcement agency? Why did the sheriff not intervene on her behalf? Are there clear photos of their faces so they can be id'ed and sued? What happened to her once she was taken away?

#ElonMusk wants to know what Federal workers did last week. Here is a template: Dear #FelonMusk, I did my job to the best of my ability in accordance with my contract. Unlike you, I WORK for a living, did NOT receive $8 million for the week as you did, & I donā€™t SPONGE off of govt contracts. šŸ–•

#Emails2DOGE

House Republicans are preparing a budget package that calls for $2 trillion in cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Thatā€™s TRILLION. With a T.

Democratic AGs win preliminary injunction against DOGE access to Treasury payment systems www.newsfromthestates.com/article/demo...

US officials are reportedly threatening to revoke Starlink access for Ukraine if they donā€™t give us 50% of their mineral rights. Thatā€™s not diplomacy, itā€™s extortion. Weā€™re also pushing them to kill a UN Resolution that blames Russia for starting the war. Facts matter.

Musk & DOGE are now f*cking with the Social Security Administration. šŸšØ IMPORTANT: If you or a loved one experience delayed SS payments or difficulty accessing SSDI services, CALL THE PEOPLEā€™S HOTLINE! Tell your story. ā˜Žļø 503-212-4600 ā˜Žļø Pass it on:

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Trump just ordered the DOJ to eliminate the police misconduct database. Imagine losing your child to police brutality &finding out the officer had a violent history that wasn't tracked. Thatā€™s what happened to Eric Garners family. The officer who killed him had many complaints before that fatal day.

BRAVO to Maine Governor Janet Mills for slapping petty tyrant trump in the face with her calmly defiant "see you in court." THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„

Did you know that 72 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for healthcare? The Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans in Congress want to take it away to give tax breaks to billionaires. Don't let them take away our healthcare. Let them know you didnā€™t vote for this shit.

The ā€œbrain-drainā€ in the US will be immense. And that is the point.

This is how itā€™s done.

A must watch moment: Republican Sen Tom Tillis shows he may have a spine after all. I know itā€™s hard to believe, but he actually calls out Putin šŸ‘€ Thanks to @reallyamerican.bsky.social

šŸšØNEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Trump: Hey you guys! I gonna make this country great!

Let me know if you agree Trump deserves to be called out! šŸ’™

Todayā€™s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

FOX NEWS: You are against people bringing in eggs that have not been-- I mean, we have the USDA for a reason. These could be contaminated and bring illnesses in. GALLEGO: Absolutely. This is why we shouldn't be firing USDA inspectors that are actually doing oversight over avian flu

The Economic Blackout to rid us of Trump and Corporate Evil.

Nobody is safe from MAGA

This is really something

Holy shit! Youā€™ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: ā€œYou donā€™t think Iā€™m going to stand up for you?ā€ Woman in the crowd: ā€œYou need to stand up.ā€ Another woman: ā€œDonā€™t bend over.ā€ šŸ”„

Spread the word, economic blackout 2-28! Do not make any purchases in any big retailers. Support your local small businesses. Hit them with losses! $$$$ #bluecrew #resist

Who has alternative resource lists for Veterans who would normally call the Veterans Help Line for crisis services? 988 of course, Iā€™m not as familiar as I should be on non gov organizations who are here to assist our Veterans in need .

Is Elon a govt employee? If he is, he needs to be held responsible for the intense and number lies he is putting out with constant ā€œif true thenā€¦ā€ If he isnā€™t then he needs to get the hell away from my govt.
