Trump’s team is already saying they will not spend funds that Congress has authorized and appropriated.  There is no point in Democrats voting to fund the government only to let Trump and Musk do whatever they see fit with those funds. Call your Senator: (202) 224-3121

What does Putin have on Trump?

Here’s some good news that got lost amid the chaos unleashed by the MAGA regime and fascist republicans: After negotiating with their workers’ union, Costco decided to raise the hourly wage for their U.S. workers to over $30. Costco gets it. More companies should follow.

Twitter keeps going down like Lauren Boebert behind a bowling alley.

Idiots. All of them! I guess reality may be the only way to ungrift these fools.

On Fox “News”? Impressive.

Hearing from a source: "A friend at NCI lost 3 outstanding staff (their words) and tweeted about it. She was suspended for 2 days. No idea how her tweet was flagged." This is for all the people asking us why it's hard to tell what's happening at NIH. Retaliation is real.

I don’t even know what to say. I keep forming half thoughts.

Musk gutted X, and now it can’t even keep the lights on. TSLA stock is heading for the gutter. The government won’t be far behind. This is what happens when you put billionaires and extremists in charge—everything collapses. 👍🔁💙

The American people did not vote to rip health coverage from millions of people. Or raise the price of groceries. Or destroy public education. Or give trillions of dollars in tax handouts to billionaires and giant corporations. But Trump and Musk are now pushing that agenda.

A leaked memo reveals that DOGE's next target is the VA, with plans to fire more than 80,000 agency workers who provide critical services to veterans and their families. More than 25% of agency staff are veterans themselves.  How is this "efficiency"?

A new report from @sanders.senate.gov finds that Americans in the top 1% of earners live seven years longer on average than Americans in the bottom 50%.  Inequality is eating this country alive.

Mark Kelly is a Navy vet, former NASA astronaut, and current U.S. Senator. Elon Musk isn’t fit to shine his shoes. Glad TSLA is tanking and X is barely functioning, this guy is a horrible human being. 👍🔁💙 www.azcentral.com/story/opinio...

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

“…the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” - FDR, 1938

My message to those that aim to sow distrust in science & healthcare: You picked the wrong group to dismiss and discount. We do not yield to misinformation and lies! #standupforscience2025 @sufsseattle.bsky.social @standupforscience.bsky.social

All of the Republicans who for years railed about "unelected bureaucrats" destroying the government are awfully quiet as an unelected bureaucrat destroys the government.

The President is lying about Social Security as an excuse to gut Social Security after promising not to touch it. Why? To pave the way for more tax cuts for the rich.

Elon Musk just called Social Security a “Ponzi scheme.” And his team is working to gut the agency that makes sure your grandpa gets his check on time. It doesn’t have to be this way. I’m supporting a bill to increase benefits by $2,400/year and expand the program’s solvency.

Trump’s Accomplishments in First 6 Weeks: ❌ Measles outbreak in Texas ❌ Social Security, Medicaid & Medicare cuts ❌ Ukraine betrayed ❌ Inflation soaring ❌ LGBTQ+ & civil rights under attack ❌ Grifting while America suffers Do you agree it’s time to take the GLOVES OFF? Like👍Repost🔁Follow💙

Stopping cyber operations while the Russians aggressively pursue theirs is another unearned accommodation. Historically, Russia banks concessions and pushes harder. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...

Senator Bernie Sanders was absolutely on fire this morning… 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Yes

Oralé Resisters They were offended Zelenskyy didn’t wear a suit to the White House. By Bone Spurs draft dodging Lying President of the United States! Here’s a reason 👇 not to abolish the Department of Education! Churchill WW 2 White House Visit UK at War! #SlavaUkraine #Zelenskyy #USDemocracy

So Trump and JD Vance want Zelenskyy to “apologize” now Apologize for what exactly? For fighting for the freedom of his country and people? For refusing to hide and whitewash russian imperialism, aggression, and crimes? Either you fight russia, or you are on the side of russia

Trump is disgusting! He needs to apologize to President Zelenskyy, and the people of Ukraine. #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

Words I never thought I’d say about Karl Rove: He is not wrong. I will add that it was wrong to put 47, Couch V, and Little Marco in these roles that could even conceive of such a shit show. They are un-American to the core. They are a national disgrace. They have shamed us all.

Only a couple of letters separate Rubio from Ruble. 🇷🇺

I TRULY LOVE AND RESPECT @ericswalwell.bsky.social Congressman Eric Swalwell tonight Message to Little Marco Rubio "Bro, did you write this?" "Don't bullshit us. Grow a pair "

Fuck Donald Trump Fuck JD Vance Fuck Marco Rubio Fuck Lindsey Graham Fuck ALL the spineless, hypocritical, lying, worthless, traitorous Republican bastards.

Marco Rubio turned his back on Ukraine—and on every soldier who has fought to defend democracy. My granduncle made the ultimate sacrifice for democracy at Iwo Jima, where a bullet took his young life. We owe it to them to stand firm, support Ukraine, and ensure their fight lives on. 👍🔁➕
