Schiff: Those are the comments of an ignoramus. Article Five has been invoked just once. It’s been invoked over Afghanistan—when we were attacked, and our NATO allies came to help defend us.

“Musk's starlink satellites are raining out of orbit at a rate of 120 per month.” Each one produces “30 kilograms of aluminum oxide which eats away at the ozone layer and these oxides have increased 8 fold in the atmosphere since 2016.” #OpCanary #EndAutogenocide

Musk says millions of dead people get Social Security. That's a lie. Here's the truth: 30,000 people die a year waiting for an understaffed Social Security to approve disability benefits. Musk's plan to cut Social Security's staff by 50% will make this tragic reality even worse.

The Trump administration terminated TPS for Venezuela, Haiti, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Nepal, Sudan, and Ukraine 🤬🤬🤬 People not only facing grave dangers if deported but people invited. People that built lives, own homes, business, have American children. It's unconscionable

Elon Musk blew up another rocket using your tax money, it was recently reported that his failed experiments and falling satellites are causing severe damage to our ozone layer, risking the entire planet. #3E #EndAutogenocide #EndOligarchy

📌I want to be crystal clear here: Every one of these Democrats who had the audacity to vote to censure Al Green for having the courage to stand up to the vile, America-attacking fascist who is ripping OUR benefits away CAN KISS MY ASS. You are on notice.

How much did we pay spacex?

With his permission, I'm sharing Dean Treanor's response to Ed Martin's letter:

I guess the remarkable thing here is that there’s not even a nominal “concession” from Sheinbaum. Nothing changed between yesterday and today on migration or drug policy, but the tariffs are gone. He backed down without an excuse.

It's possible the markets have decided to get off the Tariffs or No Tariffs Roller Coaster and just assume he's tanking the economy unless he can credibly (your guess is as good as mine) show otherwise.

Senators are asking the DC Office of Disciplinary Counsel to look into the torrent of abnormal and rule-shattering statements Jan. 6 organizer Ed Martin has issued since Trump gave the conservative activist his first-ever prosecutorial job: DC US Attorney. www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Dems who voted to censure Rep Green. This is pathetic.

The draft executive action, obtained by NPR, acknowledges the department and its signature responsibilities were created by Congress, and cannot legally be altered without congressional approval.

If you thought DOGE wouldn't eventually come for you – think again. Your hard-earned Social Security is under attack by an unelected billionaire. Right now.

Throwback Thursday… Remember that time Biden cornered the entire Republican Party into denying they’d cut Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid for a $1T tax break for billionaires? That was only a year ago. Now, the biggest earned benefits cut in history is in their budget.

Most jobs lost in February since 2009… MAGRA Make America Great Recession Again!

Last night’s joint address to Congress was filled with lies, all designed to distract you from the truth. Trump is failing to deliver on any of his promises to the American people. When it comes to lowering prices or protecting free speech, Trump is doing the opposite.

The last Vet I was close to was my stepson. He served for 20 years. About a year later he was diagnosed with Appendix Cancer in January of 2016 and died October 2016. He was 48 years old. I met him for the first time when he was 10.💔💔. So please walk for him. Thank you. 💙💙💙💙

The goods we export from Oregon help our economy thrive. Trump’s tariffs will raise costs for consumers and be a disaster for the state’s farmers, fishing industry, wine producers, semiconductor manufacturers, lumber yards, and more. www.opb.org/article/2025...

Misogynistic Christian nationalist pastor Joel Webbon: "In a nutshell, in general, I don't want to see women in the public sphere."

More than 79 million people get health care through Medicaid, including over 1/3 of all children and nearly 2/3 of nursing home residents. Trump and Republicans want to rip their health care away – just to bankroll tax cuts for the rich. We can't let them.

Green: I will suffer whatever the consequences are because I don't believe in the richest country in the world people should be without good health care. I stood up for my constituents then. I'm standing up for them now. I would do it again.

NEW: The National Endowment of Democracy, a congressionally created foundation dedicated to developing democratic institutions around the world, sues Trump for withholding $200 million in federal funding that had been allocated to it by Congress.

The Trump administration would rather see you die than let you have an abortion. They are preparing to drop the federal case that would force Idaho to SAVE PEOPLE'S LIVES in a medical emergency. ID was arguing, their abortion ban takes precedence over a silly little rule(EMATALA) to LET YOU LIVE.

“Filling a crypto reserve would effectively represent a huge transfer of wealth from taxpayers,” writes James Surowiecki. In other words, “a handout for crypto holders”: theatln.tc/FJgTTj35

New: A planned federal reorganization would leave 34 states and the District of Columbia without offices that process mortgage insurance, in potential violation of federal law

Trump touted his admin's "Make America Healthy Again" agenda during yesterday's address. What he didn't say is that the EPA plans to drop a lawsuit against a chemical manufacturer whose emissions fueled pollution and health problems in Louisiana's "Cancer Alley." Hello?

Reckless. And a slap in the face to those who have put their lives on the line serving our nation. apnews.com/article/vete...

Trump and musk plan to fire 83,000 from the department of veterans affairs. Remember all those times the GOP said we couldn’t care for refugees because we needed to take care of our veterans first? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Kingsley Wilson, the newly-appointed DoD Deputy Press Secretary, believes in a thoroughly-debunked antisemitic conspiracy theory. I've mostly only seen this theory promoted by mask-off neo-Nazis. archive.is/dPvse

Large amounts of ketamine can make anyone feel like they rule the world. When should Americans start worrying about Elon Musk’s regular use? @shaylalove.bsky.social reports:

Go..Oh Canada

The Dow has dropped 1300 points over the last two days as Trump defiantly plows forward with tariffs against Mexico, Canada and China — America's most prominent trading partners.

Target is facing a 40-day consumer boycott starting Wednesday over the company’s shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies.

A bunch of billionaires have convinced a large portion of the US that it is their patriotic duty to suffer economic hardship to make the country great. If that’s not evidence of how propaganda works, I don’t know what is.

Calls increasing across Europe to cancel all US contracts immediately and oust Star link. The Russia allied Trump government has made the US a national security threat.

Donald Trump loves to talk. But last night he avoided talking about his own real actions. He avoided talking about his Medicaid cuts. He avoided talking about Musk firing thousands of veterans. He avoided talking about his tax cuts for billionaires. We will make sure Americans know the truth.

Former SSA Commissioner @martinomalley.bsky.social: It's interesting to me that the people that are going after waste, fraud, and abuse would do away first with the division, whose job it was to guard against improper payments, waste fraud and abuse... This is totally irresponsible.

Trump's nominee for deputy budget director could not say he would follow the LAW and implement Congress' government funding bills—YOUR taxpayer dollars—as directed. WATCH:

In today’s hellscape news, the Trump administration is planning to cut 80,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA is already short-staffed and wait times are abhorrent. Veterans will die because of this move.

The guy who stole money from kids with cancer, and as president gutted cancer research for children uses a child overcoming cancer as a political prop Only psychopaths can applaud that 😱

The U.S. Department of Agriculture must temporarily reinstate more than 5,000 probationary employees fired since Feb. 13, according to a ruling by the Merit Systems Protection Board.
