These are the same Senate Democrats who lectured the base for years about the importance of preserving the filibuster so it would still be available when Democrats were in the minority

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Holy shit. “USAID’s inspector general was investigating a public-private partnership involving Musk’s company just before Musk shut the agency down. Key USAID web pages mentioning Musk’s company have suddenly vanished from the agency’s website.” Follow the money.

What consequences is he going to face? This is the current problem with everything. The people who are doing tons of illegal things and the people letting them do all these illegal things will not face any consequences and they control the departments that would enforce said consequences.

Elon Musk thinks he can gut the U.S. government like he gutted Twitter without facing any real consequences. He is dangerously wrong. His ransacking of the federal workforce is going to get people killed. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Heard from inside the National Cancer Institute, part of NIH — travel through April is canceled. Purchasing with government card is frozen. All public comms are off limits. Can’t even submit abstracts to future meetings. Can’t submit *manuscripts* for publication. All hiring activity frozen. Fuck.

So as a person who isn't white, I'm Latino what documents do I now need to carry so that ICE leaves me the fuck alone now? How do I prove I'm a US citizen? When even US Military Veterans are being illegally detained in NWK, NJ, because ICE didn't believe him.....

The anti-wokeness crusaders running America do not care about intramural debates about DEI. They did not read your THREAD 🧵: about White Fragility. They want every Jamal and Keisha scrubbing their toilet for the next century.

Democrats: How can we go viral? AOC: *regularly goes viral for getting on social media and having face-to-face policy discussions with constituents on their native media* Democrats: I guess we'll never know

Democrats: How can we go viral? (a pastor goes mega-viral for calling Trump a bigot to his face) Democrats: What if Tim Kaine made a BLT on Instagram Live

Right wingers 4 years ago were freaking out that they were gonna be censored by big tech, and now that big tech is actually censoring people they’re celebrating it cause the censorship is aimed at people they don’t like. Don’t ever forget their hypocrisy

The worst people are continuously winning at everything they do currently, what is that teaching to these new kids stepping into adulthood? We are fucked.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be. You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion. Which is more powerful?

I am really not ready for 4 more years of the Trump, admin just absolutely dreading this man, I can't with these people.... I feel stupid even hearing or reading the BS they come up with....

after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"
