Holy shit. The United States was not invited to the NATO summit on Ukraine in Paris on March 11. There’s no other meaning: The United States was just benched for colluding with the enemy.

#Michigan's state budget can't take the hit of these #Medicaid cuts, either #MiLeg

Justice in Aging@justiceinaging.org

“If the cuts go through, they’ll shift costs from the federal government to the state, and ultimately, the state will shift costs to the people who can least afford them at a time when healthcare costs are already skyrocketing. We will all pay the price for these #Medicaid costs."

Democrats Brittany Pettersen & @kevinmullin.bsky.social came back to the House floor to fight for working families. Rep. Pettersen, who was denied by GOP leadership the ability to vote remotely after giving birth to her son, flew across the country to vote no on the disastrous budget proposal.

Anyone being too truthful on a #meta platform and suddenly their comments and posts have zero activity or are disappearing? Shadow Banning for the kings isn’t cute, Zuck. It’s violating my First Amendment Right to Freedom of Speech! #freedomofspeech #shadowban #raiseyourvoice #liberalaf

📄🖋 Thank you for signing bills to expand naloxone distribution in Michigan, Governor Whitmer! This bipartisan package will help save lives. I was happy to work with Rep. VanderWall last term on HBs 5077 & 5078. #Naloxone

Thinking about the federal workers who have been forced to make an unjust decision by Elon Musk about their jobs. This includes my husband- who does crucial and important medical research for the Nation’s Veterans. 15 contradictory emails in one week? Poor management. 🥄 #forkintheroad

Musk’s staffers fanned out across several agencies today, sending representatives to the Atlanta headquarters of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and meeting with the Labor Department to seek access to sensitive data.

The richest man in the world, a billionaire government contractor oligarch who Steve Bannon calls a "truly evil person," wants to control your parents’ Social Security checks, your grandfather’s VA benefits and the flow of cash to federal contractors.

Tonight @warren.senate.gov spoke on the Senate floor. She continues to fight for DEMOCRACY. Thank you Senator Warren!! 💙💙 #democrats #democracy #liberal #rights #senatorelizabethwarren

Elizabeth Warren@warren.senate.gov

No more business as usual. Donald Trump and Elon Musk are imposing pain on millions of people. Tonight, we’re taking this fight to the Senate floor. Russ Vought - author of Project 2025 - is up for a vote, and Democrats are using every second to throw a wrench in their plan.

We're committed to #BuildingPeopleUp, while the other side wants to tear us down. We joined hundreds of Michiganders at the state Capitol for the 50501 movement to #BuildTheResistance. Democracy is not a spectator sport.

🚨 Forced removal of people from their homeland is a violation of basic rights. Article 13 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights protects everyone's freedom to move and live in their own country. Arbitrary displacement is not just wrong—it’s unlawful. ⚖️💔🇵🇸 #HumanRights #Article13

1/ ❗Really chilling. Thanks to Sen. Mark Warner, for releasing Memo from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to FBI leadership ordering the purge. -Memo is a clear abuse of power and weaponization of DOJ -Memo bolsters FBI lawsuits filed today. VERY clear the list is for retaliatory purposes

On Tuesday, FBI agents involved in cases related to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol or the criminal investigations of President Donald Trump filed a class action lawsuit to stop Justice Department (DOJ) leadership from compiling lists of agents.

When I was sworn into Congress, I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution. No matter what illegal stunts Trump, Musk, and the other billionaires in this administration pull, that won’t change. I’m here, right alongside you, fighting back to defend our democracy.

Senate Democrats are considering voting NO or delaying every Trump nominee as retaliation for his overreach on ending USAID. Smash the RT if you SUPPORT this plan. ZERO votes from Democrats!!

HOLY SHIT!! Rep. Kamlager-Dove: “It is total corruption for an unelected unqualified billionaire like Elon Musk to…take control of our government to have access… of the information we use when we are trying to get a motherfucking tax return.”

Who is supporting @maxwellfrost.bsky.social right now?? Where is the rest of Congress?? Who is pushing back with him? I STAND WITH YOU MAXWELL FROST!

Maxwell Frost@maxwellfrost.bsky.social

We were just told that they won’t let us in. They are denying entry to 2 dozen members of Congress. Elon Musk has all our private information & we have no idea what he’s doing with it. This is happening completely behind closed doors. HELL NO. It’s illegal. We demand oversight!
