TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard aren't getting paid because Republicans have refused to fund them. Full stop. Democrats have made MULTIPLE attempts to approve funding, and Republicans have rejected them. Every. Single. Time.

Donald Trump is so unpopular he wants to rig the election. That’s what the SAVE Act is all about.

“Republicans in the House and Senate have made the remarkable argument that there is no need for them to question Trump administration officials under oath about the war because those officials are already fielding news media questions about it.“ Damn Republican cowards. (NYT gift link)

I interviewed certified Good Dude Geoff Rickly of the band Thursday. He told me the music industry is a canary in a coal mine for what's happening to news media. I think he's right, and I wrote about why. www.readtpa.com/p/theyll-go-...

Iowa did something that had never been done before, it repealed duly enacted civil rights protections for a protected class for the first time in history. There is no precedent for that at all.

And these laws affect everything from participation in sports, how you can address yourself in educational settings, what healthcare you can receive, what your identity documents say, what bathrooms you can use. It's a comprehensive regime to push trans people out of society.

Putting together an analysis of all the anti trans laws over the last few years and there's never been anything like this in US history. The total number of state laws passed in 5 years (300+) approaches the total number of Jim Crow laws (400+) passed over a 100 years.

I checked the box for Trump. Welcome to the FAFO era.

Holy cow, rates up to 6.53% today! A borrower putting 20% down on a $600,000 home would pay $168 more now than they would have the day before the U.S. bombed Iran when rates were 5.99%. War is costly in innumerable ways, including the cost of homeownership.

3 ways Trump extracts wealth from the American people. Illegal taxes, illegal deportations and illegal war. A THREAD.

💯

This is an important thread about the Republicans’ economy:

9. The president can’t tax us like that anymore, thanks to the Supreme Court, but neither can he ask the money elites to pay what they used to. So he’s going to use a different tariff authority but with the same goal – extracting wealth from the American taxpayer. popular.info/p/trumps-new...

6. His tax cuts for “the people that I love,” as he put it during the State of the Union, are going to add nearly $5 trillion to the national debt over the next decade. www.editorialboard.com/sotu-wasnt-a...

Airlines fear that major fuel shortages could escalate in a matter of weeks and cause chaos for the aviation industry.

"don't worry it's recyclable" is a lie made up to market single-use plastic as something other than a planet altering horror

NEWS: Trump is facing major internal divisions today. First, he privately acknowledges that his mass deportation effort is not going well. Second, MAGA is turning on him on Iran as Trump surges service members to the region. All while a major merger just consolidated local media.

Donald Trump and Republicans are attempting to take over free and fair elections. Again. They know it’s the only way they can win. We can’t let them.

Trump’s DOJ purged the Board of Immigration Appeals of anyone deemed too likely to vote in favor of an immigrant facing removal. The result has been a rubber stamp, one so obvious that the admin is actually trying to get rid of it almost entirely and just replace it with an automatic denial system.

BALTIMORE—In surprise testimony in federal court Thursday, an immigration officer revealed that more than 100 asylum seekers were wrongfully deported in violation of a court-ordered settlement agreement in a long-running case that has gotten national attention. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/exclusi...

"In 2004, the first full year ICE existed, 32 people died in custody. No other year had more than 20 deaths until 2025, when 31 people died..." A 19-year-old, "presumed a suicide", is at least the 13th person this year to die in their custody. Tripling the deaths from this point last year. #Pinks

Thing is, the real cost of Trump’s illegal war in Iran lies not in the price of bullets and missiles That analysis doesn’t include the American lives lost on the battlefield Or the rising prices at the pumps And certainly not the tertiary expenses that will increase-like groceries and other goods

The Anatoly Kolodkin, a Russian state-owned vessel under US sanctions and carrying roughly 730,000 barrels of crude, is on its way to Cuba. Defying Trump, if it docks there, the shipment would give the island a month’s worth of badly needed fuel. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Keep Turning Point USA out of our utilities & our lives. That group is a sham out to steal seats, power, & money. They are not conservatives, they’re simply liars & grifters. See info below #Arizona #ProudBlue #OneV1 #Pinks @azagmayes.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social

Hey MAGA- Weren’t you guys upset with Biden trying to quash disinfo about Covid on socials saying he was oppressing you & invading your privacy. How do you feel about Trump & FBI tracking your every move? Big Brother is watching you now! #ProudBlue #OneV1 #Pinks www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

If this war were ending as quickly as Trump claims, he wouldn’t be asking Congress for a $200 billion supplemental to keep funding it. With possibly more to come. The first week alone cost $11 billion, so the math is mathing.

The republican regime leader has nominated Markwayne Mullin as the new Kristi Noem. Call your senators and tell them to vote against Mullin. He isn’t qualified for the position! #Voices4Victory

Action met consequences. They knew exactly what they were doing. These “future Republican leaders” threw their reputations in the trash for a viral photo.

ARE YOU READY? I KNOW I AM!! LFG!! 🩵💙🩵💙 Our next mass mobilization is MARCH 28. We will make it clear to this president: We don’t do kings in America. If he thinks we’ll roll over, he is MISTAKEN. Silence is not an option. We defend our communities. #NoKings2026 social.demcast.com/s/YUFXmxw1

Daily Beast: The Cato Institute accused Trump, Marco Rubio & Kristi Noem of charging migrants $1.3 billion in fees for visa processing & other services they had no intention of providing. Critics call it “the largest fraud in the history of the U.S. immigration system.” #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

Joe Rogan to Canadian MP Pierre Poilievre: "That's where Trump fucked up… I wonder what would've happened if he didn't go along with that 51st state nonsense… That's the narrative in [the U.S.], that if he didn't do that, you would've won [Prime Minister]."

We’re told there’s no money for universal healthcare or to end hunger in this country. But somehow $200 billion more for war will likely move through Congress without question.  Not another penny for another endless war.

it's not even about the ridiculous things they keep saying, and it would really be great if any journalist would ever remind them of this, because the list of things they say you need an ID to do are not rights guaranteed to you by the U.S. Constitution, while voting is.

She built a school with $1.50 and advised President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Mary McLeod Bethune founded a school for Black girls in 1904 that became Bethune-Cookman University and rose to national influence by the 1940s. Educator. Leader. She built power from nothing. #SheShed #WomensHistoryMonth

What was that about a swamp? We remember hearing something needed draining.

Overheard at the gas pump: “I see the rise in gas prices as a donation to the democrats.” One more straw on the camel’s back. Every thing that occurs due to the careless, bigoted, ineptitude of the felon’s regime adds up. We must keep using our voices. #RiseUp
