Another plane incident in DC: An American Airlines flight from Boston had to abort its landing at DCA airport this morning to avoid another plane that was taking off on the same runway, authorities said.

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”? But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"? Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

Once again they screw veterans first. — Veteran-owned small firms hit first by VA's push for $2B in contract cuts. Service-disabled veteran entrepreneurs bear 89% of the claimed savings. Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins claims this is just step one. washingtontechnology.com/contracts/20...

ICYM REPUBLICANS NEW BUDGET DOES NOT INCLUDE NO TAX ON TIPS (TRUMP LIE DURING ELECTION) NO TAX ON OVERTIME (another lie) NO TAX ON SSI (another lie) Tell your MAGA NEIGHBORS (ty Brian Tyler Cohen)

mussolinni will only allow his friends to play

Shouldn't elon's dodgy "Wall of Receipts" get renamed to Wall of Deceit? Especially since they quietly wiped off $9.6Bn they "mistakenly " claimed.

While House Republicans run scared from constituents, Democrats should not. Democrats are wasting time in DC. They should spend every minute possible in districts with constituents and media.

#Ohio Reps: • Troy Balderson #OH12 • Mike Carey #OH15 • Mike Turner #OH1 Voted to throw 3M Ohioans off their health care, tossing 6 in 10 nursing home patients to the curb while keeping their own gold level taxpayer funded health insurance program #OHpol #DontCutOurMedicaid

Seems like the relevance of this Reagan-era Herblock cartoon has risen by 200%. Washington Post, 12/22/1988.

Fuck RFK Jr. There are now 124 reported cases of Anti-Vaxxer-fueled Measles in Texas alone. Do you want this to happen to your kid? We need people in these positions that are qualified and have experiences. The only qualification here is bending the knee & it’s going to kill our kids!!

The men told NPR they were kept in the dark about why they were in Guantánamo Bay, and were denied access to an attorney or a phone call with loved ones.

@fetterman.senate.gov When is someone going to push back on this insanity?

Let’s face it. Getting rid of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is to make way for less qualified white men to take positions they don’t deserve.

Russians adorn their tanks with pictures of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, according to Russian Telegram channels. I don't really know how to comment on that.

cancelling today!

Just heard from a friend who is a true hero veteran. His company was destroyed in 30 days by the VA when they canceled 5 contracts without notice. 23 Americans mostly veterans out of work and a veteran owned small business destroyed. For nothing. They're dismantling the VA not "reforming" it.

trump can't be bothered to figure out how to reduce prices, but he can make planes fall from the sky.

Arizona AG Kris Mayes, New Mexico AG Raul Torrez, and Oregon AG Dan Rayfield will begin holding Community Impact Hearings — a national series of townhalls "to hear from the public about the impact of federal firings and DOGE funding freezes across the country." The first will be in Phoenix March 5.

💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple.

🇨🇦 Canada imposes new sanctions on Russia: 76 individuals and entities linked to Russia’s military-industrial complex, deportation of Ukrainian children, propaganda operations, top officials, and oligarchs close to Putin are now sanctioned.

WAKE UP STAND UP AND RISE UP ITS TIME TO TAKE AMERICA BACK

Yes please go, now!

More supply side trickle down effluent economics.

Well done!

The GOP celebrated and cheered after they successfully passed through a House resolution to slash your Grandma's Medicaid. It's truly grotesque and morally reprehensible.

The EU is run by sober adults, so naturally.

A good way to know she doesn't represent you. Who does she owe?

Reminder: @MarshaBlackburn’s last town hall was 8 years ago this month. Have a great Sunday!

⚡️🇪🇺 The EU Council has approved the 16th package of sanctions against Russia to mark the third anniversary of the Russian invasion, while the head of the European Commission announced €3.5 billion in aid for Ukraine.

🇺🇦 Zelesnky: On February 24, 2025, three years after the start of Putin’s three-day “special military operation,” Ukraine is alive and fighting, and our country has more friends in the world than ever before. Our respect to those peoples and their leaders who came to Kyiv today.

The current US government is entirely untrustworthy now.

Having a person without a security clearance who brags about his chats with putin is a huge security risk.
