I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Save and share. Maybe email or tag Byron Donalds and Kash Patel.

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - Air traffic controllers for New Jersey's Newark airport lost radar again for 90 seconds Friday, FAA says.

Casar: "I've knocked on 1000s of doors and not a single time has someone said, 'Thank God you're here. I want to ask about trans people fencing'..what the hell are we doing? We are here bc MTG thinks if she picks on trans folks, she can avoid having a discussion about allegations of insider trading"

Also, just one of these government-funded Elon shitshows could fund the Veterans Suicide hotline until the end of time.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

Raskin: "So who is leading DOGE? Is it the young man who calls himself Big Balls? Is it the racist on the night crew who's proud of the fact he was a racist before all of his friends were racist, and says we should legitimize Indian hate?"

Raskin: "It's becoming obvious to the American people that Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not opponents of corruption, they are agents of corruption."

DID YOU KNOW: As Trump/Musk fire anyone in the fed government that participated in diversity, equity & inclusion, he just nominated Kimberly Richey for Asst Sec Office of Civil Rights at the Dept of Education. During Trump's 1st term, she ESTABLISHED the DEI office people are now being fired from.

Remember when John Roberts gutted the Medicaid expansion because he said the *offer* of medicaid money was too coercive to the states bsky.app/profile/atru...

See here's how to do a headline. fortune.com/2025/02/13/e...

This is stochastic terrorism.

Yep.

You are the company you keep.

As I had hoped, and per my piece earlier this morning, plaintiffs in the DOGE Treasury case brought by Public Citizen have moved for. Temporary Restraining Order. A hearing on it is taking place in just a few minutes! The lawyers for retirees and unions suing the Treasury Department asked...

THANK YOU! This action is inspiring! @maxwellfrost.bsky.social @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

For anyone that’s wondering where Trump got the crazy idea of relocating Palestinians and taking over Gaza

This is a great idea. Do you know anyone in Congress you can talk to?

I’m Not Calling It The Gulf Of America. Ever.

This. 👇

almost every single word that Sen. John Kennedy says about Dr. Fauci and covid in this clip is false. It's remarkable how Trumpers have concocted a completely fictional history of the pandemic.

So how’s it going so far?

Trump has gagged the CDC, but not me. So I'm sharing this. www.cjonline.com/story/news/p...

House Republicans are now just making stuff up on Fox to justify Trump's push to kill FEMA

Also yes project 2025 was always the plan.

If your spouse needs a safe word with her friends to protect herself from you, you should be in therapy. Or in prison. Not the Secretary of Defense.

Trump while surveying hurricane recovery in NC today: "I'll also be signing an executive order to begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA or maybe getting rid of FEMA..I’d rather see the states take care of their own problems.” He's not just stupid, he's dangerous.

Is Trump suggesting state owned media? I can’t stress how dangerous this is. I’m also concerned no one will care because they’ll get to keep their TikTok

Yep. Spot on!

Facts.

live your life in such a way that the entire world doesn't burst out laughing when your rocket blows up

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

I did, in fact, say this, and it is, unfortunately, in fact, true

Friends, colleagues, MedSky 🩺 The time is here. Please commit with me to call your US Senators from your own state,be prepared to leave your name and your zip code with a real person/staffer. Beg them to VOTE AGAINST the nomination of RFK Jr for HHS Secretary. Do it for the kiddos! He is unfit.

Chip Roy on Steve Bannon's show makes clear that the Republican plan is "overall mandatory spending cuts," including "reforming Medicaid and cutting SNAP and all that."

Donald Trump will be president for another term. But he will forever be a convicted felon and an adjudicated sex abuser.

Sometimes I ask fellow Christians what in the Bible would back up Trump… his hate and division. They bring up when Jesus showed anger and flipped the money changer tables. They miss the point, he was angry they were perverting the temple, which is what Christian MAGA is doing to the church

Bezos didn’t like this awesome cartoon by Ann Telnaes so let’s keep sharing it

It’s wrong to allow someone like this to be in charge of our country, and decisions that impact all our lives! If people would have simply done their jobs to hold him accountable he wouldn’t be! It’s wrong, and now we are all going to pay the price!

from today's post — link is here: bit.ly/3W29SvW

“A crypto venture recently unveiled by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and his new Middle East envoy, billionaire Steve Witkoff, has partnered with a crypto platform that authorities … say has been used by criminals and Iran-backed militant groups Hamas and Hezbollah.” bit.ly/41v9YQf

RFK Jr’s long history of conspiracy theories, reckless disregard for public health, and racist, crazy ideology make him among the most dangerous of Trump's cabinet picks. He is unfit to lead our HHS.

It’s not enough to focus on the flaws of these cabinet nominees, but to focus instead what each of these government agencies actually do for Americans and how they benefit us. We also need to explain why these nominees are morally wrong. #DemCast open.substack.com/pub/reframin...
