Donald Trump Recruited as Moscow Asset, says Ex-KGB Spy Chief. www.kyivpost.com/post/47630

In Feb 2024, Erik Prince said, ”It’s time” to “put the imperial hat back on to say ‘We’re gonna govern those countries if they can’t govern themselves.” He agreed this amounted to being a colonialist. In Nov, he promoted Prospera, a charter city in Honduras backed by Thiel, Andreessen, & Balaji. 1/

“The CFPB is there to make sure that Elon's new project can't scam you or steal your sensitive personal data...This is like a bank robber trying to fire the cops, and turn off the alarms just before he strolls into the lobby.” US Sen. Elizabeth Warren More here:

listen to this. Elon can barely form a sentence right now.

the “computer expert” who owns X — where hundreds of millions of posts are sent a day — thinks computers can only do a few things at a time

Raskin: "It's becoming obvious to the American people that Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not opponents of corruption, they are agents of corruption."

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

white guy DEI

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

If you ever wondered how a civilized modern country like Germany could have gone so completely and violently insane, you're looking right at it. Shoulda shown up.

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

Trump has overplayed his tiny hand.

Holy shit. Senator Dick Durbin, the Ranking Member of the Judiciary Committee, has proof suggesting Kash Patel may have LIED under oath when he said he did not know Stew Peters, a right wing extremist who worked with prominent Neo Nazis. See below: Vote NO on Kash Patel!

3rd day in a row on the golf course while Musk runs the country. He didn’t even know yesterday that the head of the Social Security Admin resigned, and didn’t know SpaceX employees were working at the FAA/DOD, and claimed Medicaid wasn’t being cut when it’s being cut massively.

CBS Lawyers Say They Will Seek Donald Trump’s Personal Financial Information If President’s ’60 Minutes’ Lawsuit Proceeds To Discovery Phase deadline.com/2025/02/trum...

Jamie Raskin: "Given that I was marching at age 3, you know I’m not letting any coup-plotting, election-denying, insurrection-supplying autocrat, kleptocracy, plutocrat or theocrat, or any techno-feudalist Silicon Valley broligarchs aspiring dictator, turn me around now.” Amen!!

Federal workers are already posting direct accounts of their firings on TikTok, garnering viral sympathy and support. Why Dems are not taking advantage of these already public, very personal profiles is indeed baffling, see this thread: www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8YVxTUq/

This is like saying parents saved money by not feeding their kids as much and skipping doctors’ appointments. People were actually using the services he’s killed off, among them veterans.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Scoop --> Trump-Musk cuts just resulted in the firing of numerous top researchers at NIH's center for combating Alzheimer's, sources tell me. They predict big setbacks to fighting dementias. This cause was once championed by *Republicans.* Details here: newrepublic.com/article/1917...

Historians Politely Remind Nation To Check What's Happened In Past Before Making Any Big Decisions theonion.com/historians-p...

"The move to fire OPM’s privacy and communication teams appears similar to Musk’s previous move to fire the entire media relations department at Twitter/X so all press inquiries generated back an automated 'poop emoji' response" www.cnn.com/2025/02/18/p...

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Trump has now ordered his administration to scrutinize the “threat” to children posed by antidepressants, stimulants and other common psychiatric drugs, targeting medication taken & needed by millions www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Michael Steele: “ I’d just like to see somebody wake the hell up and get excited about the fact that your country is under assault! “

We need the best communicators among the Democrats to speak to the public on a regular basis, much like governors did during COVID. This is becoming more urgent as the lawlessness and lies accelerate and it gets harder for people to know what’s true. This should include Pete Buttigieg. Who else?

Said every tyrant and dictator in human history to justify his actions.

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it. Strong power move for Team Cancer.

Gutting the CDC right as we’re on the cusp of major outbreaks of transmissible diseases is a very bad idea.

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have no excuse. Mitch McConnell, when he was out of power, successfully obstructed Obama. Elie Mystal explains how they can use McConnell’s playbook:https://gaslitnation.libsyn.com/the-world-must-stand-up-to-trumps-america #oligarchy #dictatorship #dictatortrump

The lead prosecutor on the Adams investigation - Hagan Scotten - resigns from SDNY. “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion [to dismiss Adams charges]. But it was never going to me.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Real Americans support democracy, Mr. Vance. You humiliated yourself and our country.

This is so insane

Read the letter from Danielle Sassoon to Emil Bove about Eric Adams. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-sassoo...

Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it: www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

The DOGE website is reportedly hosted on non-government servers, not secured against database attacks and can be easily defaced, 404 reports www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

I refuse to be negatively polarized into unqualified support for Big Pharma, but these motherfuckers make it difficult. Trump’s newest executive order targets SSRIs, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, stimulants, and weight loss medications: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

READ Danielle Sassoon's letter to AG Pam Bondi, via @nytimes.com: "Rather than be rewarded, Adams's advocacy should be called out for what it is: an improper offer of immigration enforcement assistance in exchange for a dismissal of his case." static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

These are very big guns in the scheme of things in DOJ. A cascading scandal that is NOT GOING AWAY.

A Russian spy is now the Director of National Intelligence.

1/So, the guy who is supposedly fighting waste & corruption in government just got a $400 mil contract with that same government he’s supposedly overseeing for his trucks that get, let’s just say less than stellar reviews www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...
