President Trump's executive order that the federal government recognizes only two sexes, male and female, is disrupting the lives of some trans, nonbinary and intersex people applying for passports.

The internal medicine clinic at the Navy’s third largest base in the United States is now staffed with one doctor for 2,200 patients, forcing officials to move one-third of the backlog of cases to medical care off the base.

Dolly Parton Calls Out Indiana Gov Over Plan to Dump Her Imagination Library

Please, please, please pay attention to this. A Republican Rep getting booed by his Republican constituents bcuz he supports what Musk/Trump are doing. And these are Republican voters who are not happy with what Musk/Trump are doing. Pay attention. This is just the beginning.👇

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

Besides the bad faith and epic corruption evidenced by the letter to @robertgarcia.bsky.social from this Trump waterboy, it is “whom you call a dick,” not “who you call a dick.” Grammar counts, you unctuous toady of the wannabe mob boss WHOM you serve.

President Donald Trump on Thursday again raised the prospect of serving an unconstitutional third term, asking a crowd at a White House event whether he should run again. The Constitution’s 22nd Amendment limits presidents from holding the office more than twice.

NEW: It was supposed to be a triumphant return to Capitol Hill for Jan. 6ers vowing to sue the Justice Department. It ended with Enrique Tarrio's arrest for suspected simple assault. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social Passed your video on to many family and friends. It was inspirational! Waking up to hear about the town hall in Georgia was the icing on the cake!

If you haven’t seen this yet, please do. Because this morning something awesome happened that I’m going to say more about soon…. Hint: Georgia…. Town hall. It’s happening…. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

It’s absolutely a Nazi salute. But note how weak it is. Whether it’s sincere or “ironic” (and that doesn’t make a difference), he doesn’t quite have the cobbles to do it vigorously. He does it like grandma struggling to put her shawl on a hook.

DOGE cuts 9/11-related cancer research funding, which FDNY commissioner calls "a tragedy for all Americans." www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news...

Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason." www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/p...

This IS THE BEST thing I have listend to. Its long, 25 minutes. I PROMISE worth every second. Please folks, listen and share! Please.

“Washington today echoes with so many uncomfortable reminders of that transitional moment in Moscow—the sudden, fearful silence of critics who had previously spoken out, the business tycoons rushing to kiss the President’s ring, the lying and reality distortions to fit the official narrative.”

"North Carolina senator Thom Tillis told people that the FBI warned him about 'credible death threats' when he was considering voting against Pete Hegseth’s nomination for defense secretary... "Tillis ultimately provided the crucial 50th vote to confirm." www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

NEW: The Justice Department now says Donald Trump’s sweeping pardons for Jan. 6 rioters covers unrelated gun charges some faced after the FBI searched their homes. It’s moving to drop felony charges against Daniel Ball and Elias Costianes. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

The headlines tell the tragic story of a nation organizing itself around power instead of justice. It's painful to witness.

I've read most of the analyses of the DOGE 2025 "receipts" site. This, from NPR, is the best I've read so far. Some of what they claim to have cut haven't been cut, other "cuts" will incur costs down the road. NPR says DOGE has made $2B of cuts, not $55B. www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

Americans overwhelmingly want Trump to follow court rulings if they conclude he has overstepped legal bounds. From a new WaPo survey: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

More than 10,000 federal employees who had yet to complete their probationary periods have been fired by the Trump administration, including those who work to protect American agriculture.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, UKRAINE!

"The level of access DOGE possesses means that the organization may already be able to siphon data that Musk or his agents could hold on to forever, long after his time as a government liaison, or even after a potential falling-out with the president."

Pence is speaking? About time! 😎

I forget the actual wording but there was a great tweet about how the Democrats are like a band that just spends all of every show telling the crowd to calm down.

She told the whole world a few weeks ago.

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

A terrific, timely and accurate piece from @edwardluce.bsky.social about the wanton destruction Elon and DOGE are inflicting on those who serve the American people.

MTA to Feds: Drop dead

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

I don't know about you, but I don't have a king. Anyone who calls himself a king is not only NOT my king--he's unfit to be my president. My line in the sand.

Psychopath.
