JFC indeed.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

I don’t think an unelected billionaire like Elon Musk should have access to your personal data—we need to prevent DOGE from getting into the IRS. abcnews.go.com/Politics/elo...

Money talks

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

Crazy stuff coming out of Utah right now.

Incompetence at its finest. The Trump Administration just doesnt know what its doing, and America is suffering. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

This UNBELIEVABLE 15-year-old with college and masters degrees is in medical school working on a doctorate,,, but federal funding has cut off her research and scholarships. We NEED more doctors,,, especially little black and brown girls to grow up believing they can be anything. gofund.me/1549247a

NPR's Scott Simon remembers Russian opposition leader Alexi Navalny, who died a year ago Sunday in a Russian prison.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

The veneration of white men to the exclusion of every other American has an historical parallel, I’m sure. I just can’t think of what it is…

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

This is completely naïve. Most people that bought a Tesla trying to do good for the environment 5 or 6 years ago can’t afford to sell or trade it in.

JUST IN: Federal judges orders HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore “by no later than 11:59 pm” today their websites and datasets to pre-January 30th status. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

Trump is weaponizing his power to pardon, dividing Americans and rewarding those who follow his commands. This is what dictatorship looks like. Catch the latest episode of the LP Pod with @jeffreytoobin1.bsky.social here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfU8...

Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.

Eric Adams pretty much agreed to sidestep NY sanctuary protections, & make his city's immigrant residents more vulnerable to iCE, in pursuit of naked personal gain & a shield from corruption charges.

Hi Bluesky! Glad to be here.

a nice reminder to the press that there is nothing you can do to pacify these people or buy yourself leniency

new cover of Time just dropped (yes it’s real)

huh, i wonder what this is about www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

In an email obtained by NPR, employees at EPA's Office of Environmental Justice and External Civil Rights were told they were on administrative leave, effective immediately.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

The universe speaks in mysterious ways.

I do not need the Dems to tell us how bad things are. We already read the news. I need them tell us *what they plan to do about it*

I just learned that The Diary of Anne Frank is no longer required reading. This explains a lot. Buying copies for the kids in my family now.

Democrats should not vote on a single Trump cabinet nominee until this federal assistance freeze is rescinded. Do not let up.

Let's be clear: the Medicaid portal went offline because of Donald Trump's orders. The only reason it is back on is due to outrage from the American people. Now, they are trying to lie about it. Medicaid was never taken away from Americans under President Biden.

THREAD: All Democrats should join Senators Murray and Merkley in demanding a stop to Russell Vought’s nomination as OMB Director. OMB is freezing funding at 5pm today.

With no regard for the well-being of hardworking American families, Trump put a freeze on federal financial assistance. Instead of trying to lower costs, he's hellbent on making life worse for millions of Americans.

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration. Big mistake. Huge.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

The way we fetishize and politicize “low prices” creates ample opportunity for giant corporations like Wal-Mart to perform these large scale sleights of hand that offer cheap goods at the expense of communities’ wellbeing itself.

using right wing media as a hiring pool is gonna expose the difference between having a real job and just shrieking about it from the cheap seats

Fauci is the latest in a string of former Trump aides-turned-critics to see their federal protection canceled.

A U.S. military veteran was reportedly among those detained
