This is what Town Hall’s should look like all over the country right now.. Apply continuous, aggressive pressure and make it clear we will not comply, we will not sit by, and if our representatives don’t act, we’ll find people that will and they can hit the bricks! www.youtube.com/live/-CLe_uX...

Trump Revels in Mass Federal Firings and Jeers at Biden Before Adoring Conservative Crowd: President Donald Trump says “nobody has ever seen anything” like his administration’s sweeping effort to fire thousands of federal employees and shrink the size of government

Hey GOP! Some words of advice: Don't come for Medicaid unless you want the fight of your life. Under the Trump Tax Scam, people will literally die to fund tax breaks for the super rich. Don't Cut My Medicaid

Absolutely - Just Don't do it!

DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine is the grandson of Valery Martynov - a “former” KGB spy. That’s right, one of Elon Musk’s young cyber criminals — related to a former KGB spy, and who seemingly did not have to undergo a background check — now has unprecedented access to…

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

Sure, why not?

Who could have guessed that the former leader of the Proud Boys—convicted of sedition because of January 6th—would, after Trump pardoned him, start to harass the hero cops of January 6th? Who could ever have guessed it? (This went down at the Principles First conference in D.C.)

Conspiracy theory or truth? It would make sense, wouldn’t it? www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-worl...

Hedge Fund Manager Says Trump Is Hurting the Economy.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

General CQ Brown is a patriot and hero. Firing him makes America less safe, but it will help bring about a Golden Age. For Putin.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

WalMart, the largest private-sector employer in the United States, with approximately 1.5 million employees, half of whose take home pay is less than $19,177/yr. When employees complain they are not making enough to support their families, HR tells them to apply for Food Stamps!

I used @5calls.org to call Rep Troy Balderson and Senators Husted & Bernie Moreno today I asked them if we could count on them to protect Medicaid All 3 offices replied "I can't say" "I CAN'T SAY?! AKFKM? This is one of the most urgent matters of the day FFS! #OHpol #Ohio

Musk & DOGE are now f*cking with the Social Security Administration. 🚨 IMPORTANT: If you or a loved one experience delayed SS payments or difficulty accessing SSDI services, CALL THE PEOPLE’S HOTLINE! Tell your story. ☎️ 503-212-4600 ☎️ Pass it on:

I think Taylor Swift was saving the rerelease of reputation for when she started to be hated again. She's facing backlash for being friends with Blake Lively, going to NFL games, being on the right side of history, and simply for being a successful woman. reputation will hit different iykyk

Cuts to NSF expected to be at 50% reduction in force for an independent agency that fuels discovery and innovation. "The NSF budget was $9B, or 0.13% of the total [budget]." This is not about fiscal prudence. This is about killing universities. nanoscale.blogspot.com/2025/02/the-...

I love Claudia!!! Mexico is a beautiful country with great culture — much better than this maga shithole King Musk-Trump is creating.

Says the guy who won't even respond to the mothers of his own children

It is essentially a coup by an unelected bureaucrat 👇 Tell Congress to pass the "Stop the Steal" bill to prevent Elon Musk from meddling with our payment systems and data here: bit.ly/4gnneKE

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

4 min video. Yes, we're already in a coup, but there's some good news. We are the heroes - people who keep doing the right thing. If enough people keep doing the right thing, we will change the world. Step up, and speak up, even if you feel the walls are closing in. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOaU...

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

Kennedy Center Tickets Sales Plunge With Trump Takeover: Trump made a big deal out of firing the people who have so successfully managed what until now has been a non-partisan and treasured DC institution we currently know as the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center For Performing Arts. Or, as it’s…

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

200 million dollars of waste.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

🚨 Credulous FOOL: Trump’s WEAKNESS exposed America FLIPS: Did the world’s leading democracy just become one of the BAD guys? 3 times, Trump was prompted to answer the SIMPLEST question. 3 times he FAILED. And the rest of the world NEEDS TO TAKE NOTICE. search.app/GHRTYUPM4Jdt...

Make it make sense! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Nailed it.

Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

The "Art the Deal" character declared bankruptcy six times between 1991 and 2009

Amen to that.

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

We can only hope, Ukraine will not take Trumps deal. 🇺🇦Everything Trump touches dies! 🪦 What to know about Ukraine's rare earth minerals, which the U.S. wants www.axios.com/2025/02/20/u...

77 million voters, who quite obviously lack intelligence and eat too many eggs, own this mess.
