Walz: "The idea that the secretary of education would not know what IDEA is -- individuals with disability in education act -- that's like your mechanic not knowing how to put air in your tire. And she's in charge of this nation's education progress. It is catastrophic."
Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.
No congressperson should sit quietly during Trump’s speech. Their responsibility is to openly revolt and disrupt the process.
Decorum doesn’t extend to fascists. #3E#STU#donotcomply
This news truly breaks my heart.
We are calling on HHS to take immediate action. Secretary Kennedy needs to bring back weekly measles tracking from the CDC, rehire the health experts, and roll out a serious vaccine campaign. Our kids' safety is on the line!

A free media, independent of our government is a CORNER STONE of democracy, one with out which the whole building might fall. SB184 eliminates the independent board for PBS/AETN, putting it in direct control of the Executive (Governor Sanders). Things in #Arkansas are going from bad to worse. #arpx
Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.
Imagine if the media pointed out there was already a Government Accountability Office whose job it is to go after actual waste and fraud, not just things Elon doesn’t like, and found $70 Billion in savings last year and $2 Trillion in waste since 2003.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.
EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out.
Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal.
Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home.
That.
Do that.
Across the government, probationary employees and Schedule A workers—including individuals with severe physical, psychiatric, or intellectual disabilities, as well as veterans—are being let go.
@aoc.bsky.social We’d like your help organizing a March on Washington to ensure protester safety and secure permits. We’re aiming for a Saturday at least two weeks out to allow for travel planning.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’
Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.
Want to see advertisers lose MILLIONS this Sunday? A record-setting low for viewers during the Super Bowl would do that.
Money talks and bullshit walks.

Myself and I are looking into things and if things are looking bad we will make a statement a few days later. We will also let you know these things are illegal, but we won’t stop the crimes while they happen. - #Democrats
In a span of 24 hours Trump:
•Signed EO withdrawing USA from UN Human Rights Council
•Declared ethnic cleaning of Gaza & US control
•Sent immigrants to a Gitmo concentration camp
•Said he’d let El Salvador imprison US Citizens
If you still don’t see this fascism for what it is you’re complicit.
I haven’t watched @msnbc.com since election night. I thought I would turn it on tonight to find some hope.
Nope. This picture says it all.
Say it with your fucking chest! This is a fucking coup!! JFC.
A friend points out that a lot of people made money shorting the market thanks to Trump. I wonder how many are in Congress or are his billionaire buddies?
A whole bunch of people who were totally cool with posting the addresses of NIH/CDC employees during COVID are now absolutely apoplectic that people would publish the mere names of people forcing their way into government agencies and accessing sensitive data.
Weird, huh?
Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?
“AP: Rubio says El Salvador offers to accept deportees from US of any nationality, including Americans” Honestly still just staring at my phone in disbelief. apnews.com/article/migr...
