In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

Donald Trump promised to let Elon Musk self-police his conflicts of interest. The result? Those investigating his companies have been fired. Cases against his companies have been dismissed. The corrupt self-dealing is staggering.

This. Is. Insane.

This is such condescending BS.

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

Says the guy who won't even respond to the mothers of his own children

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

“I want you to thank me.” 💰Kristi Noem says Trump told her to spend $200 MILLION (taxpayer dollars) running ads thanking him for his immigration crackdown. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

He nails it.

This is how it’s done.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Trump was willing to stand up there for a few minutes to pretend to care about black history, but hugging the guy was a deal breaker.

My new favorite drug is Republican members of Congress getting yelled at in their districts by constituents who hate Musk.

Yep

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

If someone wanted to destroy the United States from within, would they do anything differently than what Trump is doing right now?

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Pay attention to this. Replacing JAGs with loyalists enables whatever orders Trump and Hegseth issue to be interpreted as lawful.

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.

Anyone else see that Cybertruck stuck in the snow while the Honda Fit drives right past it? Pretty much sums up America vs rest of the world.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Trump fired Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., a four-star fighter pilot known as C.Q. who became only the second African American to hold the chairman’s job. He will be replaced by a white man. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Of course stocks are tumbling in this unstable, scary environment led by ignorant, unstable people. Countless Americans fired, programs we rely on shuttered. Trump has alienated allies & trade partners. Stupid tariffs loom & with them higher inflation. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/b...

Dear Chris Hemsworth, when you find yourself doing a meta ad with a Kardashian, you need to step back and reevaluate what you're doing with your life.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

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. 🔥🔥🔥

Maine’s Gov. Mills: “See you in court.” Trump called her out over the trans athletes ban and threatened to withhold funding, she said she will follow the law. More: thehill.com/homenews/lgb...

Trump: "We have now hired a couple of the best agencies and we're gonna spend about $150m, maybe $200m, on advertising saying that when you take certain drugs -- the drug fentanyl, etc - it destroys your skin, it destroys your teeth, it destroys your brain...I think we can drop it 50% by doing this"
