How can we host the Olympics and World Cup when Trump is now banning so many fans from other countries from attending? And would others even feel safe coming?

Niche, and very funny

The emails obtained by our Committee are damning. Acting Social Security Commissioner Dudek called the Governor of Maine a “petulant child” and then he canceled Social Security contracts with the state in retaliation for getting under Trump's skin.

Leland Dudek must resign.

I still think this is the reason Trump is tanking the economy.

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Brandon Bradford (@BrandonLBradfor ). The tweet reads: "Deporting Americans without due process then saying they no longer get due process because they aren’t in America means no one has rights, FYI. Nightmare scenario."

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

I'm no good with patterns. Can someone help me out here?

There were four Republican-backed extreme constitutional amendments on the ballot in Louisiana yesterday.

The voters REJECTED them all (in a state Trump won by 22 points in November).

Keep the pressure on.

AOC and Bernie in front of the rally crowd in Denver

Zoomed out crowd shot of 34,000 people in downtown Denver with Colorado mountains in the background

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Europe looks to poach US researchers as Trump cuts funding Twelve EU capitals want programs to bring over American scholars.

Give back the Statue of Liberty, French MEP tells US French Socialist MEP says Washington’s embrace of dictators negates the values that led France to bestow the iconic statue some 140 years ago.

She’s been covered by a glacier, smashed up by various giant monsters, and left to decay on a planet overrun by super-intelligent apes. But even in a Hollywood scriptwriter’s worst nightmare, Lady Liberty surely couldn’t be sent back to France. Could she?

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

Indeed.

My first poem in decades. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

“We have to consider the possibility that President Trump is a Russian asset.”

Conservative MP Graham Stuart suggested Donald Trump is a Russian asset. Stuart’s comment comes after considering Trump’s betrayal of Ukraine. Trump’s sudden and indefinite suspension of military aid to…

The line “Putin went through a hell of a lot with me.” was the most repugnant for me.

Today in Politics, Bulletin 81. 2/28/25 … Donald Trump and JD Vance put on the most disgraceful display in the Oval Office of any US president meeting with the leader of a foreign ally.

That Oval Office debacle today solidified two things:

1. The US is not a trusted ally

2. Zelensky is a hero

Sen John Curtis is the first Republican Sen to make a statement in support of Ukraine since the Oval Office

We want to send a message to the world: what has happened today is an absolute disgrace. It is completely un-American.
