I'm old enough to remember when trump tried to say people in the Biden Administration were incompetent, but none of them accidentally fired the Ebola team. Or the nuclear weapons folks. Just sayin'.

NEW: Texas has introduced a bill to ban gender affirming care for all ages. www.transvitae.com/texas-bill-s...

Today is Economic Blackout‼️

Kash Patel called judges who rule against Trump “political terrorists.” Trump wants to “have a look at the judges.” Elon called for impeaching judges to “restore the rule of law.” So of course House Republicans are falling in line.   Intimidation has no place in our judiciary.

Everything he says about deportation camps on military bases is spot on—and alarming. But don’t get thrown off by the name Blackwater. It’s still out there—rebranded. Blackwater became Xe in 2009, then Academi in 2011, before merging into Constellis in 2014. The name changed but the op lives on. 🧵

Every single Democratic governor and attorney general needs to do this -- if only to make it clear to voters *right now* that the firings and funding freezes that are about to hurt their states badly are the work of Trump-Musk in Washington. Get ahead of this now, or get blamed for it later.

If the government were functioning, I’d be against a shutdown. The government is not functioning. Democrats should stand their ground and refuse to fund DOGE. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

There is a very good chance that next year tens of thousands of people will be dead because of an ideological opposition by the Trump administration to doing the basics of governing

Laura Loomer doesn’t know that babies can be born premature. 🤦‍♀️

Anti-vax parent charges: NEGLIGENT HOMICIDE, RECKLESS CHILD ENDANGERMENT.

This is evil. Pure evil.

MeidasTouch ranked number 1 podcast This development could signal "a shift in tone" among Americans. Even as Trump's approval rating "fell by 13 points, 33 days into his term..." [newsweek]

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.

Billionaire newspaper owner justifies controlling its content by saying other opinions are available online—ah yes, on platforms like X and Meta, where capitalist billionaires also decide what’s allowed. ✨

I’m down for Al Sharpton’s boycott on Friday. If we want to be effective, we need to stop giving these people our money. Are you in?

What do you want to bet more dangerous criminals enter the country via this program than all other programs added up? Threats to the country?

“Waakzaamheid tegen het groeiend antisemitisme. Tegen andere vormen van uitsluiting, zoals Islamofobie en homohaat. Het vraagt om het rechten van de rug. Zoals de Dokwerker.” Een duidelijke oproep bij de herdenking van de #Februaristaking

Is there anyone left at the FAA? This is bad.

Reminder: An oligarch is taking a chainsaw to the federal government, firing thousands of civil servants every day, shutting down agencies, blocking funds for cancer research, stealing your medicaid and social security... ...because a few hundred billionaires don't want to pay their share in taxes.

1. Major exclusive breaking news: Marco Rubio may have just banned trans foreigners seeking visas with correct gender markers from US Entry. A new cable, effective immediately, says visas must contain assigned sex at birth and should be rejected if they don't. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Omg. This is horrifying. Congresswoman Kelly Morrison just revealed that Medicaid covers HALF of the kids in the United states, more than 40% of the births — and Republicans want it gone. The Republican funding bill impacts ALL OF US.

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

This is straight out of Putin’s playbook.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Democratic House Rep. Tom Suozzi: "I have a very simple message, it shouldn't be necessary, but we have to be very clear: Putin is a dictator. Zelenskyy is not." Boom! 🔥

Apple shareholders rejected a proposal to scrap the company's DEI programs. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Courage and honor come in many forms.

Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

Vital services and protections for everyday Americans are being gutted thanks to DOGE. And this is happening in exchange for renewing one of the biggest tax cuts in American history that will predominantly benefit people like...you guessed it...Elon Musk. See the problem here?

The United States now playing the role that communist satellite states once played in the UN: sponsoring resolutions in its own name but on behalf of Moscow.

I miss DEI

What she said.

1400 more firings at Veterans Affairs: "Officials said specifically that Veterans Crisis Line responders were not affected by the dismissals. But workers within the department said that support staff for the crisis line were among the workers let go..." www.militarytimes.com/veterans/202...

This hits hard… “Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.” You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.

You first.

If you feel this way, you're not along. And together, we're going to keep the Republic. Pass it on.

Well done France! UK next please!

Cartoon Arend van Dam: Trump, de nuttige idioot www.bnnvara.nl/joop/artikel...

A newfound RESPECT for @maddow.msnbc.com for keeping it real about what’s going on at MSNBC and how she really feels about it. She didn’t have to say this, but I’m so glad she did. Take 2 minutes… (1 of 2)

Juist vandaag waarop de #Februaristaking wordt herdacht is deze brief👇'n schot in de roos. Duidelijk is dat er voor VVD en NSC allang geen morele ondergrens meer bestaat. Op 'n dag als deze is dat extra pijnlijk. Wees niet onverschillig! Blijf opkomen tegen racisme, fascisme en vreemdelingenhaat.

Au! Vinden ze niet leuk bij @partijnsc.bsky.social, want die pijnlijk-warrige verklaring achteraf was vooral wrijven in een vlek.

After joining Russia, Belarus, and North Korea in voting against Ukraine at the UN yesterday, it should be clear to everyone that Trump’s America is no longer the Leader of the Free World.
