Dear third-party voters, you’ve been awfully quiet. What’s up? What’s the game plan for the next 3 years and 11 months? Asking for 75,017,626 friends who did the right thing because we wanted to avoid all of this shit!!!

We have reached out to the company who was awarded this contract and they have confirmed the ceiling was $8 million—NOT billion. Here is their statement. The federal government is cooking the books.

A coalition of congressional Republicans from the New York area rebuked President Trump for cuts to a federal program that administers aid to emergency workers and others suffering from toxins related to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

#Canadians are preparing to create a retail blackout on Feb 28 of all U.S retailers doing business there. For one day, they will show them the power when provoked. Absolutely no purchases from Walmart, Home Depot, Best Buy, Amazon, McDonald’s, Staples, Gap or any other US retailers. Join them!!

I'm definitely NOT SUGGESTING that you go on Netflix and "thumb down" Hillbi!!y E!egy. No, I wouldn't do that...

Meanwhile, so much for “free speech” over at The Bad Place.

More Good News That’s Bad For Trump While Musk and Trump’s horror show unfolds, it’s great to be able to share even more positive news with everyone. In the midst of the chaos, I hope this brings you some sort of relief—even if just for a moment.

I have some thoughts about boycotts and know you get to read all about them.

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Hoping they get LOTS of reports

Promise: "I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One." Reality:

Baier: Do you view JD Vance as your successor? Trump: No

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

When a city boycotts Amazon, it's gotta hurt. #AmazonBoycott #tariffs cultmtl.com/2025/02/the-...

After 55 years, the Grand Rapids Festival of the Arts is DEAD—killed by Trump’s war on culture.His admin gutted the National Endowment for Arts (NEA) funding for programs that support real artists,instead prioritizing “patriotic” projects for the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.

SpaceX, which holds billions of dollars in government contracts, was penalized by the FAA for ignoring regulations. In response, Musk pushed for the resignation of the agency’s chairman.

📢 FYSA: Trump wants to take over Gaza for his billionaire pals, putting Troops in danger for profit. Meanwhile, Musk is tearing apart our government, weakening national security. Where are Republicans? Why are they letting unelected billionaires rip this country apart?

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Donold’s supporters don’t care if they lose their jobs or their freedom as long as he is performatively ‘owning the libs.’ That’s how much they have been taught to hate you.

my reply to David Axelrod, Rahm Emmanuel, or anyone else who thinks surrendering is the right response right now: get out of our fucking way www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Shutting down asylum at the border is a flagrantly illegal power grab that puts countless lives in danger — so we're suing.

There is still beauty in this world

Awesome!

Apparently, the other flash has been there a while... www.snopes.com/fact-check/t...

The ultimate goal is to destroy public education. Every time they take money away from public schools, it gets easier to convince people that public schools don't work.

Here’s what Trump does: 1. Creates a crisis that hurts a lot of people 2. Frames the crisis as a good thing 3. The crisis gets really bad 4. Trump then reverses his bad decision and takes credit for ending the crisis he created 5. MAGA eats it up Every. Single. Time.

This is possibly, one of the BEST informational articles I've seen to explain the maga movement.

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days. The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years. ‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades. So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?
