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.

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.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children. We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread. www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-m...

Republicans aren’t hiding anything. Their priorities are written in black and white: trillions of dollars in tax breaks to the rich, while making savage cuts to Medicaid, housing, nutrition and education. The reconciliation bill will make the rich even richer and the poor poorer.

Even though Rubio promised life-saving aid wouldn't be interrupted, it has essentially been halted worldwide, interrupting HIV and TB treatment and threatening millions of lives. People are dying today because of these chaotic, inconsistent stop work orders. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

Maryland’s Senator Alsobrooks: “Trump is hurting the people who voted for him.”

BERNIE: “Elon Musk, the richest guy in the world, is going after USAID, which feeds the poorest people in the world. Next, he’ll go after the programs that impact you: Medicaid, Medicare, community health centers, Pell Grants, affordable housing.” Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DF3FXK6...

Extreme MAGA Republicans spent last year promising to lower costs. And lying about their connection to Project 2025. They have spent this year implementing the extreme Project 2025 agenda. And haven’t done a damn thing to lower the high cost of living.

Leaked documents that show the Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives intends to roll back eligibility and make cuts in the programs, drastically altering how schools qualify for reimbursement for school meals and how much assistance families would receive to buy groceries.

Someone gonna get big mad at this

ELON IS ALLOWED IN THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. NOT YOUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES OR STUDENTS & PARENTS. I WILL BE BACK.

Higher egg prices? Some consumers are turning to a new solution: Renting chickens. via @nbcdfw.com

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Senator Schiff (as Dems filibuster the nomination of Project 2025 author Russ Vought): “The moment you say it’s ok to violate the law to shut down USAID you have said it is ok to violate the law and shut down anything.”

OMFG! 🔥🔥🔥🔥Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "We are going to be in your faces, we're gonna be on your ass, we're going to make sure you understand that this is what democracy looks like!"

Republicans ran into the room to SHEILD Elon Musk from having to come and speak to Congress. They want their billionaire takeover done behind closed doors. The people deserve transparency. No one elected Elon Musk.

THANK YOU! This action is inspiring! @maxwellfrost.bsky.social @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

For the love of all that is good in this world do NOT buy books from Amazon. Cancel your Amazon accounts. Go to the Library (in person or online ebooks!) and support local bookstores instead. Please #BookSky don’t be ambivalent

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines. The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds. It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

This is the kind of action I’ve been looking for!

Trump’s unilateral decision to impose a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico is most likely illegal and most definitely harmful.  Economists estimate that these will increase costs for the average American family by as much as $1,200 a year. We need to drive prices DOWN, not UP.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are any nation's strength, not its weakness.

No one knows what caused last night's tragic crash outside DCA. Investigations are ongoing, and no one - not Donald Trump or anyone else - should be drawing conclusions until all the facts have been released. But here is what we do know. (1/7)

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!
