Let's be frank: Social Security benefits for Americans goes beyond party lines and can help our neighbors avoid facing a life or death situation. It is dangerous, costly and downright selfish to gut these benefits that our neighbors rely on. www.statnews.com/2025/02/18/i...

Trump cuts threaten a ‘generation of scientists’ as many weigh leaving US. President’s call to ‘Make America Healthy Again’ has led to slashes in NIH funding – endangering jobs and vital research. This does NOT make America great. #MOMSky www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Not surprised that it's community colleges that are fighting back. Community colleges serve the greatest number of people facing systemic barriers. A large percentage of community college students are the first in their family to attend college.

This man joined the Army, was mentally wounded from multiple tours, and the American govt turned its back on him. In case you dont realize it, PTSD is a war wound. This man risked his life for his country, and no one will stand for him! No American should ask why the world is disgusted with America

The biggest story in the country right now is how many lawsuits DOJ is losing trying to defend Musk and Trump. I've never seen so many courts, so clearly outraged at the federal government. The latest one, blocks cuts at HHS and FDA. Visit www.democracydocket.com to stay informed.

The fact that they’re broadcasting an entire Trump press conference while Democratic elected officials are trying to get into the USAID building which was shut down by Musk shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM. We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building. Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

No one elected Elon Musk. As Donald Trump allows Musk to access people’s personal information and shut down government funding, Republicans in Washington will also own the consequences. We must do everything in our power to push back and protect people from harm.
