The Tesla Cybertruck is banned in Europe, due to its design not meeting European safety regulations, with its sharp edges & potential for pedestrian harm; it cannot be legally sold or registered in most European countries, including the UK.

New York Republicans scold Trump for CDC cuts that affect 9/11 responders abcnews.go.com/Politics/tru...

Trump has overplayed his tiny hand.

BREAKING: Canada defeats the USA to take home the #4Nations  Championship 🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canadian PM Justin Trudeau tweeted: “You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.”

This is pure sadism.

Every reporter today should be asking every Congressional Republican why they're OK siding with Putin and walking away from NATO and democracy.

Jeffries: President Zelenskyy is not a dictator—he was a duly elected president of Ukraine. It’s shocking—but I guess not surprising—that Donald Trump continues to play footsie with Vladimir Putin, a sworn enemy of the United States.

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

The closure ends the National Law Enforcement Accountability Database — a resource experts said improved public safety by preventing bad officers from jumping from agency to agency. Because abusive cops are Trump's favorite kind. Cruelty is the point. www.axios.com/2025/02/21/d...

Biden couldn’t get rid of DeJoy — DeJoy resigns for Trump and now this

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

83% (!!!) of Americans oppose Trump pardoning violent Jan. 6 rioters, according to a new WaPo/Ipsos poll.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

You know things are bad when you agree with Three Shirts McGee.

Keep in mind that the probationary federal employees who are now being fired are NOT just newly hired ones. If a long-term employee is promoted to a higher-level position, such as a supervisory or managerial role, then the employee may be subject to a probationary period for that new position.

“What’s the point of fighting cybercrime if we’re just going to give access for government networks to people with cybercriminal gang affiliations?” www.wired.com/story/doge-c...

To the @GOP senators and Congressmen who claim to support Ukraine, you do have some power… if you’re unwilling to exercise it then don’t pretend to care about your country more than your political career:

Kash Patel has been confirmed as head of the FBI. QAnon Pro January 6 Trump loyalist Criminal Grifter We are so fucked

People are fleeing Florida and Texas. As of Jan. 2025, those states collectively accounted for over 30% of ALL homes for sale in the US. Florida had 157,221 active listings—the highest in the country—followed by Texas with 102,552. Repressive state governments and rising insurance are to blame.

Musk, calling for a “wholesale removal of regulations”, sends his child soldiers to attack government stabilizing the entire US system. Regulations, though endlessly maligned by corporate and oligarchic propaganda, are all that protect us from multiple disasters. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Lawyers, this is what it looks like to honor your oath as a lawyer and as a prosecutor. I want to lift up Denise Cheung, one of a growing group of senior DOJ lawyers who have put the rule of law ahead of politics & short-term career advancement. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to the entire free world.

'Inaccuracies' on DOGE website suggest Trump admin is taking credit for cuts they did not make: The website for Elon Musk's Department of Government Accountability, the arm of the Trump administration making dramatic cuts to the federal government, may be taking credit for cuts it did not make,…

"wildly slashing government means Republicans own the airplane disasters, the E. Coli outbreaks, the cancelled medical trials, the excess unemployment, and the consequent damage done when competent people performing critical tasks are fired" You own this shit, MAGA: open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

10,000 King Soopers workers are currently on strike for better pay and working conditions. Instead of negotiating in good faith, parent company Kroger has been using scabs and prioritized $7.5B in stock buybacks. Don't tell me they can't afford to pay a living wage.

UNDER THE STABILITY OF BIDEN: Egg Prices ↗️ Planes ➡️ UNDER THE CHAOS OF TRUMP: Egg Prices ⬆️ Planes ⤵️

I wanted to come up with an analogy to describe Trump's absurd plan for Ukraine. Something like... "Imagine if Mexico invaded America and then met with Canada to decide how much of America they should keep." I quickly realized my analogy was something most Americans would welcome right now.

When MAGA and Dems despise you equally, you are Mitch McConnell. Bye MFer.

No notes

They did this with the federal workers overseeing our nuclear weapons stockpile, too. Starting to sense a pattern in this kakistocracy.

HELL YEAH: In a masterful speech, the Democratic governor of Illinois, JB Pritzker announces not ONLY a balanced budget in his state but alludes to Donald Trump and Elon Musk as being “IDIOTS.” Let me know if you agree with him.

We have added @trumpgolftrack.com to Bluesky. Please follow and pass on!

Trump handed massive tax cuts to the rich in 2017. Now he's planning even more cuts. How are Trump and MAGA Republicans planning to pay for them? By making it harder for millions of Americans to access Medicaid, food stamps, and other federal programs. Trickle up economics.

Resisting comes in all forms. Here is a very creative one starting to pop up.
