Joe Biden on life support would have been better than this

The crucial role of the Navajos in breaking the codes of the Axis powers in WWII is being erased from the archives and military websites by Trump & Co.

Too “DEI” to acknowledge, it seems.

All in a day’s work for a newbie dictator.

It’s worth the effort to believe truth will triumph in the end

Can Ukraine stop Russia from allying with North Korea, Iran, and China? If not, then Russia cannot forbid Ukraine from allying with whom it chooses. That is a basic element of sovereignty.

I mean.

This is horrifying! Family members of some of the people sent to do hard labor in a Salvadoran prison by Trump confirm their loved ones weren't members of a gang.

One woman said her brother got a tattoo of a rose in Dallas, and because of that they accused him of being a gang member.

My elderly neighbors get their medicine in the mail…a disruption in USPS service could quite literally kill them.

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

I’m very glad that @joshuajfriedman.com got the full quote here, because it was pretty wild. Boasberg was not happy.

I’m surprised the DOJ lawyers didn’t wear ski masks in court.

To President Zelenskyy, From Embarrassed Americans Over the past two years, everyday people have been showing up in support of Ukraine in both big demonstrations and small acts—including displaying the Ukrainian flag, publicly advocating for peace and...

We cannot allow the indefensible actions of our government to eclipse our overwhelming solidarity with the Ukrainian people. sign.moveon.org/petitions/to...

Given that the Trump people did nothing to induce Russia to end the war, it’s fair to conclude that the whole idea of pursuing peace was just a pretext to renew relations with Russia.

Republicans at the U.S.mint have removed the Capitol congressional gold medal from the website for purchase. What a disgrace, disservice, desecration, and betrayal to the sacrifices made by the officers who risked our lives defending the Capitol from the mob of trump supporters.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY!

If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK!

Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore.

JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺

#24HourEconomicBlackout

The corruption is now just out in the open.

I started my economic blackout 20 minutes early. I'm cool like that. Buy nothing February 28th.

Elon Musk has siphoned off more money in taxpayer dollars since November than the entire USAID annual budget.

He is the real welfare queen. #fireelon

Former defense chiefs denounce Trump’s ‘reckless’ Pentagon firings Jim Mattis and four other former defense secretaries called President Donald Trump’s ouster of Gen. CQ Brown and other top officers dangerous and unjustified.

The extraordinary public appeal was signed by Lloyd Austin, Jim Mattis, Chuck Hagel, Leon Panetta and William Perry — who served in Republican and Democratic administrations dating back to the 1990s

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

That last paragraph is how you know Nova Scotians mean business

JUST IN: B.C. Premier David Eby says he directed B.C. Liquor sales
to immediately stop buying American liquor from red states and remove the highest-selling brands from those states from the shelves of the province’s liquor stores.

the point is not that it's fast -- the point it that it's systematic.

Career prosecutors withdraw from federal criminal investigation of GOP Congressman Andy Ogles Federal prosecutors based in Nashville have withdrawn from the criminal investigation of Tennessee Congressman Andy Ogles.

Federal prosecutors investigating Republican Rep. Andy Ogles for fraud were just withdrawn from the case without explanation. Trump openly celebrated the move. Ogles recently introduced a resolution to allow Trump a possible third term as president. www.newschannel5.com/news/newscha...

I really can’t wrap my head around congressional Democrats’ response to the past 12 days of crises. It reeks of pathetic capitulation. Trump is asserting dictatorial powers of absolute control over the entire government and the reaction is “we don’t swing at every pitch”? An appalling abdication.

PLEASE NOTE: Bribes are now called "settlements."

California Governor Gavin Newsom invites Trump to visit the state to see the crisis firsthand, emphasizing the need for leaders to focus on helping displaced Americans rather than peddling lies and disinformation.

A horrible people, right? All murderers, rapists, criminals, and drug traffickers, right? Trump once called them animals.

Y'all, Mr. Rogers said look for the helpers. Those helpers are currently coming from Mexico & Canada to help with a natural disaster here. Let's stop shitting on our neighbors.

The Judge & DANY prosecutors in court today are American heroes. They've put themselves squarely in the sights of a very powerful man. Their sacrifice & willingness to stand up for the rule of law is something we should all honor. It's a true act of courage. They refuse to obey in advance.

In his amicus brief on release of the special counsel report, Trump argues: “As the President-Elect and soon-to-be 47th President, President Trump has an interest in a smooth transition and efficacious vesting of executive power."

And irony is dead right there.

Justice Samuel Alito talking to Trump two days before SCOTUS could be deciding on whether Trump’s sentencing proceeds is another disgraceful reminder how little Alito cares about any appearance of corruption or impropriety.
