Hegseth is a pathetic unprofessional incompetent wannabe who couldn’t even hold the jock straps of the guys he fired

NBC News: The Espionage Act contains a provision making it crime to disclose national defense secrets "through gross negligence."   The law does not require info be classified, because it was written before the classification system existed. The law refers simply to "national defense information."

To anyone living in a state that doesn't respect you for who you love or who you are: Illinois has a place for you. You are seen, you are celebrated, you are protected, and you are welcome here in our state.

Musk has poured millions of dollars into Wisconsin to buy the this Supreme Court seat. The election is in a week - don't let him walk away with it. Join a phone bank, talk to some friendly voters, and kick Musk out of Wisconsin.

Trump Fired Park Rangers — But Not the Ones Who Tend to the White House theintercept.com/2025/03/17/t...

It’s never going to happen, but I would LOOOOOOVE to see Trump produce concrete evidence that Biden knew nothing about these pardons. 🤣🤣🤣

It is human trafficking.

NEW: I emailed the band. “We broke up with him first. We quit Twitter in 2022 when he was only half a Nazi. Then someone else took our handle, pretending to be our official account, so we filed a legal complaint to put a stop to that—which is why @dropkickmurphys shows as suspended."

What’s on the chopping block due to Trump’s cuts to NIH? Crucial cancer services for rural patients. Groundbreaking diabetes research. A treatment for children with severe intellectual disabilities. Tell me how this is supposed to make America healthy again?

President Trump & Elon Musk want to dismantle the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). That would eliminate free public access to weather forecasts, hurricane tracking, and wildfire alerts. Act now to protect NOAA! act.ucsusa.org/3D9MkPy

DOGE have zero expertise in auditing and evaluation. That Musk publicly flaunts a chainsaw when peoples’ lives and families are being destroyed is beyond cruel and is an insight to the future horrors we will suffer unless he is removed!!!!

Unconscionable!!!

Karma’s a bitch!

Touché Jane!!!

One way to commemorate the end of the third year of Russia’s senseless, criminal war against Ukraine is to read the work of Ukrainians about it. Vika did not live to see the publication of this book, since she was killed by a Russian missile. But we can see her in her words.

This was the first time in their lives, I realized, that these boys and girls had been in an actual classroom. The Russian invasion began as covid was ending. Two years of covid seclusion had been followed directly by three years of war. The kids were buoyant. snyder.substack.com/p/my-favorit...

It is abundantly clear that Musk, Bannon, Vance, Trump, Miller, Gorka, John Jr and others are full fledged Neo Nazis . Their cozying up with AfD and their behavior and verbiage is most unsettling 🤬

No surprise after studying both volumes of the Mueller Report

#MuskOrUs @indivisible.org @indivisiblemn03.org Showing up at -3F in Minnetonka MN. We reject unelected Musk and his unaccountable DOGE stealing our personal data and hacking our government. They’re clumsy, corrupt, and unAmerican!

1/n The rally today in Springfield was amazing! Despite the weather, we had a great crowd, tons of energy and amazing speakers. Here are some pics @in-slwm.bsky.social @indivisible.org Crowd shots

Today in White Plains, NY, we stood up for democracy and protested this regime.

No kings! The @50501movement.bsky.social held a rally today in Chicago's Millennium Park to shout that we the people refuse to abide by would-be dictators Trump & Musk.

Fort Collins, CO turned out in the bitter cold to protest #kingsnotpresidents. Hard to capture the full scope but 300 people (600 numb hands) covered all 4 street corners!

Presidents Day rally in Trenton 💕

I joined the good folks at the DC 50501 protest this afternoon and it was a blast. We don't have kings in this country, and we don't bow to billionaires. We don't work for them. They work for us.

President Musk and Kennedy Center chairman Trump have decided that you don't deserve to feel safe when you fly.

I think it is time to get more radical

Here we are again. Issuing “policy” via social media. Official press releases referring to his posts. Incompetent staff that can’t even spell the country in question correctly. It’s Colombia.

@dsm13.bsky.social how do you follow Hartmann on here? I am new to this format and still trying to figure out
