This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

NOT OKAY

Trump and Republicans are gearing up to eliminate Head Start programs, which provide vital childcare to nearly 1 million kids. SNAP, which helps feed nearly 14 million children, is also on the chopping block. And they wonder why more people aren’t having children. Hello?

A picture is worth a thousand words.

America First? Fuck all of you that voted for this!

Today in Hector NY. About 200 people in a rural, mostly Republican county, with other demonstrations in nearby towns. Lots of support from cars driving by! @hcrichardson.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com #handsoff

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

“You’d think Elon Musk had everything. He’s the richest man in the world, he already owns Twitter, …and the President of the United States is his nanny. But there’s one thing he doesn’t have. A seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court.” -Joe Gallina

It’s borderline criminal.

Where are the former presidents? They have nothing to say about this travesty in the Oval Office against zelensky. If might be an unwritten rule about not bashing a sitting president but these are not normal times. And Trump bashes all of them and Hilary regularly. They need to speak up.

Sign of the day…

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup

The Washington Post adopted the slogan “Democracy Dies In Darkness” after Trump was first elected. It turns out that democracy also dies in broad daylight when billionaires control major media outlets. www.playtyperguy.com/p/jeff-bezos...

NEW: “Kennedy paused a multimillion dollar project to create a new Covid-19 vaccine in pill form on Tuesday, and the Food and Drug Administration canceled an advisory committee meeting on updating next season’s flu vaccine.” newrepublic.com/post/192059/...

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

When I saw the disgusting "trump Gaza" video this morning, the bile rose to my throat. I won't share it. Instead, help me promote this counter narrative by Tala, from Gaza. "Gaza is not yours to take. Gaza is ours, and we are still here. This is our land." BRAVO to her strength and DEFIANCE. 🥹💪

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

"If the GOP could pull Trump’s dick out of their mouths long enough for the oxygen to return to their brains, they might see how batshit crazy it is to run a govt like this... But that would require a spine and these Republicans have the collective courage of a baby deer caught in a 6-lane highway."

He nails it.

This is Musk's work and he should be explaining it to all of us. Or better yet, just shutting everything down and getting out of DC. What a wonderful silence that would bring.

Trickle up economics.

Let’s start calling on Congress and Senate to cut office budgets and staff. Democrats should start calling this out. Not necessarily cut their own budgets and staff unilaterally but put that out there for a good faith effort to cut the budget. Adam Kinzinger suggested this yesterday. Brilliant

This is reportedly the ad WaPo refused to print. Can we make sure everyone sees it? Not on Twitter and it probably would not last 2 minutes but maybe someone could post it?

True words.

Knowledge is power…

This cartoon by @mluckovich.bsky.social is getting banned on Twitter. Because of course it is.

Anyone who is still working for federal or even state governments or really anyone working when you receive documents like performance reviews, bonus notifications, letters of commendation need to immediately print those off as hard copies if they have not already done so. Also HR policies

Every. Word. Of. This! Senator Alsobrooks: "In his wicked hunt for vengeance, this president has decided that no target is too small, no family is too vulnerable, and no American is out of bounds."

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?
