🔳 A Russian victory would not only be catastrophic for Ukraine,but also extremely dangerous for Europe.Imagine a Russian army reinforced with conquered Ukrainian forces&resources. It is a frightening but realistic possibility.

arguing against birthright citizenship in front of the supreme court while at the same time pitching a netflix show where immigrants compete for citizenship is such a perfect microcosm of america right now that it feels fake

In 2024, Ernst Van Zyl of Afriforum—a White Afrikaner group that has been accused of treason re: Trump’s actions against South Africa—acknowledged that “there is no white genocide” in South Africa. But Trump just used the white genocide myth to justify giving White Afrikaners refugee status. 1/

Guy pushing a tech monarchy against campus aristocracy 🙄

Is anyone going to ask how a public policy center is somehow the "largest" study on Mifepristone? Also, he/they are completely full of shit. If 1 in 10 women ended up with sepsis, JAMA and NEJM would be screaming at full volume 24/7, not waiting for Josh Hawley to bring it up.

Apple defied a court order just so it could steal from app developers and jack up prices for users. A federal judge called it an “obvious cover-up” and put a stop to it. This is a huge win for app users, developers, and competition.

The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

Absolute fucking clown show. Hegseth accidentally included a reporter in a text message group announcing strikes in Yemen, including weapons, targets, and timing. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

So I felt like I was going insane over the weekend. I kept asking people they had seen the reports that we tortured a German green card holder at Logan Airport—requiring hospitalization—and then threw him in prison. These were very news conscious people, and not a single person had seen the news.

Trump wants to piss off the other countries so that they will ban Americans and keep us trapped here.

I’m so tired of hearing Rubio & other rightwingers now claiming that if you’re on a green card you’re a ‘guest’ in this country. BS. You’re a lawful permanent resident. The clue is in the name. If someone is a permanent resident in your home, are they the same as the guests who come and go? Come on.

DOGE claims to have saved $115 billion, but we can confirm this figure is overstated by 77.3%, meaning the actual savings amount to only $26.05 billion. To verify this, we had to rely on internal connections, as Musk has obscured details of these claims on DOGE despite promises of transparency.

Remember: whatever happens from here on out the Dems who vote for this GOP budget are complicit. Because they willingly surrendered the power they had to stop it. The idea that allowing what’s been happening the last two months to continue is a way to avoid “blame” is madness

BREAKING Project 2025 leader and current OMB head Russ Vought directs all agencies to create plans for large-scale layoffs ("Reductions in Force") by March 13.

On the HHS Leadership call today: 1 employee from CMS (Center for Medicare/Medicaid Service) and 2 employees from SSA (Social Security Administration) have died by suicide after their firing.

Just your daily reminder that DOGE has found ZERO fraud. Via @atrupar.com www.publicnotice.co/p/despite-th...

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Breaking "the government" and replacing the "deep state" civil servants with AI bots programmed by 20-something right wing Elon fanboys may sound like a great idea until it's time to eat an egg or a chicken sandwich without fear of getting sick, or deal with a hurricane or get on an airplane.

Around 35% of SpaceX’s revenue comes directly from the federal govt. Less than 1% of NPR’s budget comes from the federal govt.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

🛑🛑🛑 I cannot stress this enough: Introducing Elon Musk into commercial aviation safety will be disastrous. Both Tesla & SpaceX have been cited by the US government for numerous safety failings. Pair that with misleading advertising and you see a total disregard for the safety of the public.

The CIA loves it when its foreign counterparts conduct purges of their intelligence officers. In addition to weakening and demoralizing the agencies, it creates excellent recruiting opportunities. Now Trump and Ratcliffe are purging the CIA.

Joshua Steinman was in the 1st Trump admin. Tech billionaire Peter Thiel backs Steinman’s company, Galvinick, via Founders Fund. Yesterday, Steinman wrote, “Nobody wants to talk about this, but the # of men one wld need to take South Africa right now is embarrassingly small.” He cc’d Erik Prince. 1/

9. Among the databases Musk's team now controls: USAJobs (Social Security numbers, home addresses, employment records of anyone who applies for a federal job) EHRI (SS #, birthdate, salaries, addresses, job descriptions, disciplinary history of federal workers) HI (Private health info)

10. A new server used to control these databases has been placed in a conference room that Musk’s team is using as a command center. An OPM staffer described the server as a piece of commercial hardware they believed was not obtained through the proper federal procurement process.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

For those wondering: Yes, I'm uploading the entire 15 GB public-facing CDC.gov website that I downloaded a few days ago...but it's gonna take awhile to upload...

Elon Musk has ignited a fascist coup of the United States, and not one single American even voted for him.

Vivek Ramaswamy sucks but is a lot smarter than people give him credit for. He has shown the ability to get out of a pump and dump scam before it collapses and am starting to think his departure from DOGE isn't a coincidence, bro didn't sign up for treason that will blow up in his face publicly

Watch carefully. People who do not understand how gov't or the int'l econ system work & who are unaware of their own limitations & immunized by wealth from the consequences of their actions are recklessly tinkering w/the sensitive inner workings of our economy. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

OMFG WATCH TRUMP PRESSER ON THE PLANE CRASH. He is saying Biden replaced qualified ATC people with unqualified people. This is the message he is bringing to the families, and blaming DEI for this saying they were hiring Intellectually incapable people to be air traffic controllers. THIS IS INSANE.

Oval Office: Game show host DOD: Fox News host DOT: Reality TV star

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

1. Anyone who has read reports in the Associated Press, the New York Times, CBS News, CNN, USA Today, the Los Angeles Times, NBC News, or Axios would be under the impression that the Trump administration has offered 2 million federal workers a "buyout" offer. IT IS NOT TRUE

While the RFK Jr. hearing is going on, at this very moment his anti-vax group, Children's Health Defense, is shilling a book that argues the rabies vaccine is dangerous for pets 🫠

Reminder.

Last year, Erik Prince said, “it’s time for us to just put the imperial hat back on to say we’re gonna govern those countries if they are incapable of governing themselves *** You can say that about pretty much all of Africa.” He then agrees that he’s talking about being a “colonialist.” 1/

This @washingtonpost.com headline and story are deeply misleading. The real question in the case is not whether a state (i) "may" (ii) "allow" a religious public school, but instead whether a state (i) *must* (ii) *create* a religious public school. [1] www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

🇺🇦 Zelensky: "Russia must return to the pre-invasion borders. Only then would it be a fair opportunity to start negotiations."

On Trump pardoning the violent convicts of January 6, including those who assaulted and maimed police officers: “They will have a narrative of martyrdom, and that’s a really good way to rebuild right-wing terrorist organizations.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections." Each defendant assaulted him.

Saying (a) "constitutions and laws are not self-enforcing" is not the same as saying (b) "constitutions and laws are irrelevant or don't exist unless enforced." These are very different. (a) is a demand that government and political figures follow the law. (b) is an abandonment of liberal democracy

Something something about leopards and faces...

Trump rescinded Biden's Executive Order to lower prescription drug costs for Americans, which will be devastating for tens of millions of people. We need to stay focused on issues like that—not on the shiny, offensive distractions like Elon's weird salute.

Give a read. Take a step. Note that « share booster packs and obsess over follower counts on social media platforms » did not make the list of useful actions.

Pardoned...

This one is not getting enough attention. At least on its face, it seems to be directing NORTHCOM (through the Secretary of Defense) to develop a military campaign to “repel” the “invasion” resulting from “unlawful mass migration.” 1/10 www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
