Good morning!

We're 15 days through February.
We're 32 days from the Spring Equinox.
We're 20 days until Daylight Savings.

Sunset is at 5:32 pm ET in the northeast with civil twilight at 6:00 pm!

The long night is almost over!!!

Under Trump 2.0, freedom of speech has taken a beating, the First Amendment has become a punching bag, from late-night comedians to members of Congress. Punishing those who speak too loudly seems to be the true cultural policy of this administration.

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.

Is it any wonder why so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void.

This is why we must fix the system. AOC is right.

❗️Russia will not win the war, as some people think — NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte

“The Russians are advancing in Ukraine at a snail’s pace — very slowly and with staggering losses: 35,000 killed in December, 30,000 killed in January.

Confessions of a Radical, Woke Leftist Whew, this is a tough one to write, but I’ll try to get it out if you’ll bear with me.

I’m so fully, hopelessly, and unrepentantly woke that I actually give a damn about people other than myself.

In saying all of this, I am the antithesis of MAGA Americans.

And that’s how I know I’m doing life right.

Trump: $4-billion grift

Noem: 2 murdered citizens

Bondi: pedophile-protecting cover-up

RFK Jr: deadly Measles outbreak

Lutnick: Epstein Island liar

Hegseth: boat-bombing war criminal

Dr Oz: invited Epstein to a party after conviction

What a crew…

The EPA no longer exists. Its actions yesterday were an act of appeasement for the oil and gas industry, the very sector it’s meant to oversee.

POTUS doesn’t care about your health or your child’s health.

Society will bear the costs of this selfishness.

Russia is losing because it can’t reach its strategic objectives in Ukraine

Trump Threatens to Block Opening of New Bridge to Canada

What does he want, to have it named after him?

UNC Admin Can Now, Officially, Secretly Record Faculty The new policy prohibits students from recording class without permission but explicitly allows administrators to surveil professors for any “lawful purpose.”

“The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill recently rolled out a new policy that permits university officials to record classes without notifying the instructor. It’s a practice administrators have used in the past to investigate professors but have now formalized in writing.”

“Why punish a corporation for two of its officers donating big money to support Trump?”
Because this is a war for our lives, our freedoms, for decency itself and any company operated by fascist enabling oligarchs needs to be boycotted into oblivion.

Deleting Donald Trump, Letter By Letter The name of this blight on America should only survive on buildings as a warning

“Can we agree this convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, likely child rapist (see the Epstein files), virulent racist, anti-democratic authoritarian…should not have his name attached to any public building once our beloved country is rid of him?”

NATO has kept the peace for 77 years.

He who betrays NATO gets no Peace Prize.

This cohesive, collaborative, strong, united, relationship with countries in our own western hemisphere is the national security dream. The United States needs to realize this goal to enable a prosperous 21st Century.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Alberto Castañeda Mondragón says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance. But the violence he endured last month in Minnesota while being detained is seared into his battered brain. He remembers Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulling him from a friend’s car on Jan. 8 outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him and striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he said he was beaten again. He also remembers the emergency room and the intense pain from eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Musk will have to testify over his role in shuttering USAID, a judge has ruled.

The DOJ tried to protect Musk from testifying, arguing it would “intrude on White House activities," but as Musk wasn’t a secretary or agency head, this reasoning doesn't excuse him. trib.al/EGROKkN

Jeffrey Epstein Was Obsessed With My Tweets Just Before His Death—And Now I Know Why The new Epstein Files drop reveals that just weeks before the arrest that would lead to his death, Epstein was focused on the thesis of my 2019 bestseller, Proof of Conspiracy. The reason shocked me.

(🚨) This is a personal investigation—after finding my name multiple times in the Epstein Files—that transformed into a novella. It changes how we must see the Trump-Epstein Scandal. It’s long, fully sourced, and harrowing.

And it goes places you’d never guess.

More like this please. Fuck the oligarchy.

Don Lemon’s Arrest Is a Warning to Every Journalist in America The Trump administration isn’t just enforcing the law—it’s using arrests as intimidation, and the press is the target.

@donlemonofficial.bsky.social's arrest & the threat to sue Trevor Noah are warnings to every journalist in America. The message from this administration is clear: cross us, and we'll come for you. I break down what this means for press freedom in my latest Substack article and video. Link in reply.
