REPORTER: Will you commit to include California in any disaster aid package? MIKE JOHNSON: We've not seen the formal disaster relief request from California yet REPORTER: The formal request was sent to your office in February

from today’s post, on Donny stealing the real Club World Cup Trophy and forcing the winning team to accept a fake — please read the whole thing, thanks! link is here: bit.ly/4kIHOHw (and as always, there's a longer excerpt in the alt text)

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Wasn’t it just a week ago that we were supposed to get a 30-day pause? And now, suddenly, he’s focused on steel and aluminum imports? No one in Canada is surprised. Did anyone actually believe this guy? That his word meant anything? He’s a criminal.

JUST IN: Federal judges orders HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore “by no later than 11:59 pm” today their websites and datasets to pre-January 30th status. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who's noticed that ever since trump took over, planes are falling out of the sky, measles and tuberculosis on the rise, billionaires are getting richer, but egg prices are higher than ever. This administration is DEI as fuck.

Didn't you help put a sexual predator into the Oval Office AND install another as the Secretary of Defense #NancyMace? You fucking deplorable hypocrite.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

Hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahahaha times infinity

We need a group of lawyers who are willing to take every lawsuit from every fired federal employee to the max. Bury this admin in lawsuits

This guy's in charge of shaping policy for airline safety. Scary stuff.

He’s rubbed elbows with the Proud Boys, the Patriot Prayer group, Nick Fuentes and other extremists. Meet Donald Trump’s new nominee to be director of the National Counter Terrorism Center. apnews.com/article/2022...

The Trump’s campaign promise was to finish the job they started on Jan 6 and this is what it looks like.

Trump and Elon are violating our constitution constantly, and the Democrats aren't moving a finger to defend our rights. It's time for them to wake up, and comply with the oath they took to defend our constitution and the rule of law.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

The IRS Direct File program is very popular with the American people. It is not, however, popular with companies that file your taxes for a fee. So I'm sure it's just a coincidence that Marsha Blackburn sided with H&R Block over the American people after taking money from H&R Block's PAC.

Oligarchy doesn’t even begin to describe what this is

Now this is exceptional. I love Canada

BREAKING: U.S. TARIFFS ON CANADA PAUSED FOR 30 DAYS

Just two weeks ago, everyone was screeching about China stealing all of our data through TikTok, but now Elon steals it and the MAGA crisis actors are OK with it? That's some fucking bullshit.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Happens every time.

Fox always talks about Jasmine Crockett @repjasmine.bsky.social like it’s the first time they’ve ever heard of her. They slow down when they pronounce her name and say there’s a Congresswoman from Texas… We know exactly what they’re doing, but we know exactly who she is. Keep kicking ass, Jasmine!

So lets recap: - Trump announces tariffs. - Allies turn against the U.S., launch boycotts on U.S. products and boo us at events. - Markets nosedive. - Trump caves. The "deals": - Mexico agrees to do the same things they always do at the border to help the U.S. (including under Biden) 1/

FUN FACT: trump CAVED yet again today, this time to Canada, to postpone his tariffs another 30 days. The border security plans Canada is enacting were ALREADY planned while President Biden was in office.

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

really weird how everything Kamala warned us would happen is happening

Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s pick to be undersecretary for public diplomacy has called NATO “worse than useless,” a “much greater threat … than Putin ever was,” and said it “belongs in the dustbin of history.”

Congressional delegation outside USAID now: “We are here to shed a light on a crime unfolding before our eyes.”

Call them want they really are: HACKERS This "DOGE engineers" thing is bullshit! They are boy hackers! Plain and simple This is 2016 Cambridge Analytics bullshit on steroids

People are getting up off the mat.

NEW: Judge AliKhan blocks Trump's funding freeze (for now), ordering OMB to instruct all federal agencies that received the original memo that they must reinstate any stopped payments. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

This is the kind of action I’ve been looking for!

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.

The Swasticar

NEW: Musk’s OPM claims the collective bargaining agreements governing remote work are null and void in the latest OPM Memo 1/

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and Donald Trump each announce their agreement to pause tariffs for a month. Sheinbaum beat Trump to alerting the public. You can see what Trump left out of his message.

Today’s front page of the largest newspaper in Quebec, Canada and they nailed it 🤣🎯

Knowing the names of the an unelected oligarch’s underlings who are destroying the government from within is a crime now, apparently.

I’m sure that if @aoc.bsky.social roused an angry mob of @democrats.org to storm the Capitol and smear their poop on the walls, @donaldjtrump-maga.bsky.social and the #Republikkklans would call it the worst terrorist attack in history without a shred of irony.

Putin is full out celebrating our idiocy.
