“We are at a crossroads in history. This is not a moment for more talk. It’s time to act, time to step up and lead” Prime minister Keir Starmer 👏

#TeslaTakedown in Los Angeles near LAX. Happening now!

Remember this.

A confirmed case of Rubella has been reported at a San Antonio-area school.

If I have to live in Wayne's World it will be with a truly great one like Mike Myers. The other Wayne had a chance to stand up for Canada. He chose silence. Mike Myers showed up big time. No hedging, no playing both sides - just a real Canadian standing up for his country.

Warren Buffett calls Trump's tariffs a tax on goods, says 'the Tooth Fairy doesn't pay 'em' ... https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/02/warren-buffett-calls-trumps-tariffs-a-tax-on-goods-says-the-tooth-fairy-doesnt-pay-em.html

Read and also listen to my @onwithkaraswisher.bsky.social pod on my efforts on the @washingtonpost.com on Monday. It’s spicy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

True.

Democrats hold the line. Do NOT agree to fund DOGE.

Q: “I’m wondering how you feel about Trump pardoning the 1/6 rioters?” @RepHarshbarger was evasive, claimed she didn’t know who he pardoned, then peddled the lie that the 1/6 committee destroyed evidence — and the town hall crowd wasn’t buying any of it.

Gotta love Janet! ❤️ She is a badass, isn’t she?! 🤚 Pass. It. On. ✨

youtu.be/Ecpy54FAlaA?... Good watch

As if we didn't know

So glad I found a good source of info on what the Dems are doing! To assist, my rage is focused on MSM and the GOP--. Hear us roar! Thank you Arienna Elm @ariellaelm.bsky.social! Daily Dems Doing the Work, Making Noise, and Fighting Back Day 34 open.substack.com/pub/ariellae...

An NPR review of new data added to DOGE's "wall of receipts" finds the group quietly changed previous errors, added new ones and still has little verified savings to show for its work.

If it walks like a Nazi, talks like a Nazi, and salutes like a Nazi… Keep the online pressure up, friends. And boycott Tesla. Find out more about local protests at teslatakedown.com

Trump is not a Republican. At this point, I am not sure he is even an American! 🤔💙🌎🕊

I wrote this before the Oval Office performance, but really, there is nothing to add. It's all still true.

“This is going to be a massive loss of life overall,” a surgeon who formerly led USAID’s global health initiatives tells TNR. “Children are likely already dying, and will clearly be dying in large numbers” newrepublic.com/article/1921...

Richest guy in the world telling us we can’t afford to have our government fund cancer research.

Well, well, well. $29 Billion. I remember saying this yesterday

Will this be enough to open the eyes of the cult or will they have to be penniless on the street living under a bridge before they realize they've been played?

Donald Trump promised he wouldn't cut Medicaid. This week, his friends in DC voted for a bill that would leave 3.4 million Illinoisans, including 1.4 million children, in the dust. Another middle finger to working families and the most vulnerable in our state.

Given an easy opportunity to criticize Putin, Gabbard immediately pivots to bashing Zelenskyy

It's bad enough that Musk owns half of America's #satellites via SpaceX & Starlink & he has received 19.8B in taxpayer money to build up his venture... Now, he wants to privatize #NASA... Musk wants to eliminate transparency & his competition in the #Space sector... Leave NASA ALONE🤬

The US is on a stage and the world is booing

March 29, 2023.

Escalating threat of government shutdown on March 14 House GOP appears incapable of securing enough of its own votes And Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries today says GOP has walked “away from the negotiating table”

I’m sure there’s a national picture, but I gotta tell you that I know an awful lot of Minnesotans - including my wife- who love target, who think of target as their favorite store and always have, cause it’s a Minnesota company. And they just haven’t shopped there since target caved on DEI.

Tulsi Gabbard, sounding very much like a Kremlin spokesperson on Fox News Sunday, accuses Zelenskyy of an “escalation”

Guess who warned everyone?

Chris Christie: “Trump looks and sounds like an ally of Putin.”

That wasn’t about a mineral deal (aka extortion and blackmail) or “peace” it was about alienating Zelenskyy so Trump’s mate Putin can install a puppet and make Ukraine a second Belarus. This isn’t just Russian aggression, it’s US aggression and all of Europe (UK included) needs to cut them out.

Senator Chris Van Hollen told “Fox News Sunday” that he regretted voting to confirm his former colleague Rubio to be secretary of state, saying "he’s simply taking his directions at the State Department from Elon Musk and essentially parroting the president’s position.”

Mike Johnson, a Kremlin spokesperson, had this to say today.
