Right now your job, as a journalist, wherever you are and whoever you work for, is to let Americans know that what's happening is *genuinely fucking scary*. Not gaslight them with your disgusting careerist normopathy. Don't normalize this. Raise the alarm. Then keep raising it.

Of the 2 GOP senators whose votes let debate on the abominable Trump bill proceed, 50% say they fear for their lives. Of the 2 GOP senators who voted against debate on the abominable Trump bill, 50% have now announced their retirement from politics. And major media is vote-counting like it's 1983.

it was only a matter of time before they got back to destroying womens’ rights! Keep resisting! This is fucked up!

🚨By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court ALLOWS states to defund Planned Parenthood, holding that Medicaid does not give patients a right to obtain care from its providers. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

$45 million for this bullshit parade for Trump. I don't ever want to hear a fucking Republican tell me we don't have money to make sure every American has good health care. Give me a break.

Republicans are targeting food stamps to pay for Trump's tax cuts for the rich. Food stamps and Medicaid. Incredible! Remember in November.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

Taney's court was defined by Dred Scott v. Sanford. Fuller's court was defined by Plessy v. Ferguson. Robert's court will not be defined by any one case; there are too many to pick just one. Instead, he will be remembered as a gutter-tier jurist who eagerly surrendered the authority of the courts.

John Roberts’ name should be forever synonymous with the shame of enabling authoritarianism. Trump wants to be a tyrant because he’s a hateful, egotistical moron. But it’s John Roberts who’s helping him do it.

Trump just spent 4 days on his golf course and hosting 1 million a plate dinners at Mar a Lago. Today he meets a baseball team in the Oval Office. He’s living it up while you’re losing it all. Winning!

The economy is in free fall. The markets are collapsing. Our soldiers are dying. Our sensitive information is being leaked over text message and gmail. Random people are being kidnapped and sent to foreign torture prisons. And Trump is fucking golfing.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

The truth about Trump is hard to accept but easy to understand. Donald is not on our side. He is an instrument of Kremlin aggression, less overtly violent but no less deadly than the missiles used to shell Ukraine. The tariffs are retaliation for the West's economic warfare on Russia.

Chris Murphy@chrismurphyct.bsky.social

2/ This week you will read many confused economists and political pundits who won’t understand how the tariffs make economic sense. That’s because they don’t. They aren’t designed as economic policy. The tariffs are simply a new, super dangerous political tool.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

Conan: You know, Anora is having a good night. That's great news. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian.

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Regardless of how much coverage it gets, Trump aiming to install a military command that places loyalty to him above loyalty to the constitution needs to be a much bigger story.

msmeredithmm.bsky.social reposted

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Show the NFL you’re paying attention. Don’t watch the Super Bowl—make the ratings tank. Instead, listen on the radio. Money talks, and so do numbers. Stand against those who bend the knee to fascism. Tune out, speak up, and hit them where it counts. #BoycottNFL #TurnItOff #ListenDontWatch

what a f—ing idiot!!

BREAKING -- Trump says he's kicking undocumented immigrants out of Social Security. One small problem, though -- undocumented immigrants are ALREADY ineligible for Social Security benefits. You know, because they don't have Social Security numbers. Because they're undocumented.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.
