Increasingly I am sure that we are headed for a fractured country. For soft to outright secession.

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

From a friend who I trust: I’m sorry this warning is both vague and obvious but also very real. If you know any foreign students on an F1 visa they may be in immediate danger of having their status changed without their knowledge and being targeted by ICE especially if they have been involved 1/

Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

Fiscally responsible party my ass...

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too? 🚮

Clinton called Trump “Putin’s Puppet” and she was right.

Chuck Schumer is a call to action not a name

I’m calling for new leadership in the Democratic Party. So many democrats want to do the right thing, but leadership is stopping them with the unspoken threat of refusing to give them leadership positions down the road. NEW DEM LEADERSHIP NOW!! #NewDemLeadership

Schumer is a lost cause & traitor, but call or at least email your other senators to move them.

i honestly have never seen a political leader so thoroughly destroy their credibility so quickly and, on the other side, it is abundantly clear that if anyone can claim a genuine leadership of large parts of the democratic party, it is AOC.

Chuck “Vishy” Schumer is a disgrace & should resign

Every Dem senator who votes for cloture, I hope you know we see that as a vote FOR the CR Slush Fund for Musk. Because it is. You are successfully radicalizing millions of Americans in your own base against you and every establishment Dem. We know which side of the line you're on. We see you.

The only Dems I will donate to are people who primary this bullshit.

If Chuck Schumer enjoys a single day in NYC for the rest of his life without being told to go fuck himself at least once, then NYC will have utterly failed as a society.

Schumer should resign

#NoOnCR #CallYourSenators #PrimaryAgainstSchumer

Call them & tell them to let government shutdown unless Musk gets ousted.

"Undermining NOAA’s operations could risk the safety of millions of Americans and destabilize countless industries, from farming and fisheries to energy and finance, threatening job losses and economic downturn..." www.nytimes.com/2025/03/08/c...

just taking tonight to really appreciate all these years of journalistic tut-tut-tutting about how over-the-top it was for anyone to focus on trump's affinity for russia and putin.

once again I have to invoke the specter of Ronald Wilson Reagan, who is in Hell now. under Reagan, the term "government spending" was effectively demonized. fuck you, Reaganite ghouls! spending money, on its people and their needs, is the function of government! public works are good! say so!

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America. Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

Chris Kluwe @chriswarcraft.bsky.social has courage and integrity, and is not backing down. He’s an inspiration and I hope we see more people out there doing the same. 💙💙✊

Donald Trump is blocking the development of life-saving medicine. How does that help you?

Apparently Tesla isn't selling any cars which also means it's not selling carbon credits. It made 2.7 billion in carbon credits last year. Carbon credits is largely what has kept the company afloat

Federal marshals forced entry into the US African Development Foundation and escorted Musk staffers inside, after agency employees resisted their entry. Once inside, they changed the federal agency’s locks. Musk staffers were seen plugging in an external hard drive and going through everything.

Well said!

"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

"None of the employees with security clearances for nuclear secrets were properly debriefed, the current DOE source said... "Those employees could be targeted by foreign adversaries for nuclear espionage... "They have lost their source of income..." www.reuters.com/world/us/fir...

Keep up the pressure. A 40-day Target boycott begins today, so if you haven’t found somewhere else to take your business, now is the time.

The White House has tied itself in knots trying to explain to courts and to the public the nature of Mr. Musk’s role. Presumably, that’s because it seems clear that the Constitution does not allow it.

This is not law. It couldn’t withstand legal scrutiny. Don’t comply in advance university presidents. General counsel, don’t panic. Do law, not vibes.

This is unconstitutional. A violation of the First Amendment. A violation of federalism and the separation of powers. It’s unconstitutionally vague. It’s unlawful. It’s unlawful. It’s unlawful.

Democrats should use the leverage of a government shutdown to oust Elon Musk. Better to have a government shutdown than the continued shattering of our government.

RIP James Harrison ❤️🕯 James Harrison is estimated to have saved the lives of 2.4 million babies after giving blood almost every week for 60 years. youtu.be/NOTwbtYLaOI?...

Thank your Democrat Senators today. Not a single one defected on this. As a whole, they blocked the bill from moving on: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
