There was no characterization. That’s what he said. But this is Speaker Johnson. Too scared to speak with integrity. Too weak to lead.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ shut down an FBI probe after agents caught Border Czar Tom Homan on tape taking $50,000 in cash from undercover operatives posing as contractors in exchange for promised gov’t contracts. MSNBC’s Carol Leonnig & Ken Dilanian with a massive scoop. Link in reply.

The joy I’m getting from @governor.ca.gov’s mocking of that guy is really more than one would expect.

Congrats @blayneweaver.bsky.social !!!!!

Shut this concentration camp down! Attorneys for a Venezuelan man who collapsed inside “Alligator Alcatraz” are accusing the facility of failing to provide adequate care for sick detainees.

How is one supposed to fall asleep after reading about the steps that are being taken to destroy our democracy? I hate feeling like there are no clear steps to fight this.

Thank God Chuck Schumer got them to change the name.

We’re closing in on the 3.5% rule! 8.6 million and counting! We’re in awe. Lots of events still happening make sure to be counted. Big towns, small towns you showed up.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

I’ll be there, will you? No kings. No cults. Just the Constitution—and the people who hold the line.

Why the President Will Likely Invoke the Insurrection Act—and What That Means for You open.substack.com/pub/thejackh... A very important article. Please read it and take Jack’s advice.

Wait… People didn’t know that Trump was implicated in the Epstein Files? In other news- water is wet.

In San Antonio today, plainclothes ICE officers (not masked this time) arrested, handcuffed, and zip-tied a family of five (yes, ALL of them, including the little children) coming out of their immigration court hearing — which ICE had just had dismissed. www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/a...

Today is the day we honor those who died overseas stopping the same thing many of you are ignoring here at home--fascism.

Hey @newyorkuniversity.bsky.social You are blowing it. Read the room.

😳 what are we doing? gothamist.com/news/4-year-...

@raskin.house.gov: “We learned from the last century that you cannot appease fascists and authoritarians… The reason Franklin Roosevelt said ‘There's nothing to fear but fear itself’ is he knew that people had to feel afraid, but then keep going. And that's what courage is.”

Harvard “will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights. Neither Harvard nor any other private university can allow itself to be taken over by the federal government."

There is nothing more ridiculous in this timeline than the idea of my father going on twitter to get information about his social security payments. These are not serious people.

This is part of what’s so insane. As they talk about re-shoring and manufacturing they are actively trying to destroy an entire us manufacturing industry that already exists.

I have had issues & been hearing from people having trouble just ACCESSING their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access. Please SHARE!

Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

Weekend Update: 1) Trump declares he “couldn’t care less” if foreign automakers raise prices due to tariffs. 2) Trump wants America and the world to know he won’t be firing anyone in the Signal group chat. 3) Oh, and Trump is considering a military option to forcibly annex Greenland.

It’s so hard not to give up hope as I watch the callous, cruel, cowardly, and stupid behavior of grown people, all who justify it all by carrying a bible.

Just to confirm: the problem With Batman V Superman is the script. So lazy and nonsensical that it undercuts the coolest visuals. I had to watch it on mute with the closed captioning on to push through.

Folks shrug because they think: “I don’t know how it works. they know more than me. I hate politics. It won’t affect me - it never has.” They don’t know more than you. They are breaking laws they don’t even know exist. Founding fathers never thought an entire party would side with a wannabe king.

I’m in this! If you have a few bucks to share for the arts, it would be much appreciated.

Just watched Chuck Schumer interview on Chris Hayes … Schumer is done. The sooner the better, get someone who can fight AND communicate in the leader position.

Chuck! YOU ARE KILLING ME, MAN! Read the room.

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

Still not understanding that America is under attack by Russia and @PeteHegseth is just another Putin useful idiot. If you are one of the enablers elected to defend America but who choose to sit back and let this Russian attack continue, what is actually in this for you? www.cnn.com/2025/03/02/p...

The GOP's tax cuts for their billionaire donors ballooned the deficit, so they're blaming the problem on Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid — demanding cuts to programs that millions of Americans rely on. It's socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

Sometimes it feels like I’m going crazy, because there is something that is right in front of our faces, has been for years, and nobody of consequence ever says it: Donald Trump works for Vladimir Putin. How much more proof does anyone need? And what is anybody going to do about it?

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.

The Pentagon will fire 5,400 civilian workers next week.

(1,3) This is personal for me. I know Anthony Gardner personally. He helped when my brother was sick & dying from cancer related to his service defending America on 9/11. I worked with Anthony on The Glade at the 9/11 Memorial which exists to honor those who did www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

This afternoon, the top FDA food official responsible for overseeing America's food safety and inspections resigned from the federal government.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

You cannot determine whether you saved or cost money based solely on one side of the ledger. Example: I saved my household $2K by not paying the mortgage.

We are calling for a nationwide and international boycott of all Elon Musk-related products and services. Sell your Tesla shares, avoid buying Tesla vehicles, cancel Starlink, and delete your X accounts.

“I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.” Recipient of two bronze stars and a Chief Justice Roberts clerk.

ABC: “.. Multiple current and former employees described the situation as ‘a national security crisis.’” @abcnewsgo.bsky.social abcnews.go.com/Politics/liv...

So basically, the Department of Health and Human Services is finished. If you want to stay safe from food recalls, viruses, and whatever else is coming—better start looking elsewhere for reliable information.
