Watching coverage of the UN "Speech" I can't believe commentators are treating it as serious on policy. It was ravings of a madman. Say it. There was no cohesion, no policy, no logic or through line in any of it. He riffed.

SOMEBODY STOP TRUMP AT UN. He is an embarrassment. Lord have mercy on us - we are a parahia nation. Awful.

Who wrote Trump's speech at the UN? A series of real whoppers....delivered in the style of a 4th grader trying to convince you they didn't do something they actually did. And now he thanks El Salvador for accepting deportees (political prisoners). RAPTURE NOW!! TAKE HIM AWAY!

Watching coverage of UN pre the Great Leader's speech - why are they trotting out Mrs. Great Leader? Are they in enough trouble that they need Melania propping it all up?

Did Vance keep his mouth shut today? I haven't seen any clips with him flapping.

I live in Georgetown Twp, MI where the all Republican Township Board just put through a 55% rate hike for water.

4,000 patriots showed up in Holland, MI to protest the Trump Administration. Ancestral home of Betsy DeVos and Eric Prince, a very diverse crowd of all ages showed Holland and the country who we REALLY are.

The let-them-eat-cake vibe of Trump golfing while our economy burns is enough to put satirists out of work. And I’d almost be able to swallow the maddening absurdity if Trump and his Republican barnacles would just admit their galactic-level hypocrisy. My column: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Lansing, MI we heard from Debbie Stabenow, Dana Nessel, Abdul Al-Sayed and other MI legislators. Huge crowd. Holland, MI had 1500 people out - a real sea change.

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

Overheard at the hairdresser yesterday: "I read on the internet that THEY are asking people to help buffalo in Yellowstone - THEY want people to help brush snow off the noses of the buffalo" Apparently, buffalo have mastered the internet and are hungry for man-flesh.

When Congress has to declare a day is not a day in order to support Trump - we are all on Earth 2. I do not know how Republican Congresspersons can look themselves in the mirror

Raskin: "This is what Viktor Orban has done in Hungary -- to clear out the civil service with real expert professionals and people devoted to the public interest and replace them with a bunch of party hacks and sycophants to the dear leader."

DOGE fired (then rehired) nuclear workers

Some Canadian poetry for today. From Margaret Atwood's book, Morning in the Burned House. #poem #books #writing

I know it sounds like the ultimate editor-nerd-Stephi thing to have a favorite typo, but...

love this @rokhanna.bsky.social We need more proposals like this that co-opt the chaos Please share off line as well !!!

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

What happened to Little Marco?

MI Congressional District 4 constituents! Meet at Huizenga's office on Thursday, Feb 24 at 10:00 am. 170 College Ave, Holland. We need our Allegan, Kzoo, Berrien friends to join Ottawa. Ask for a Town Hall, and ask your specific questions.

Back at Congressman Huizenga's office Friday morning with a group of 8 others asking for an in-person Town Hall. The group was bi-partisan, with a Repub begging for Bill to "show leadership".Had the 16 month old grandkid with me - she pooped.

Fellow book lovers! There is a better way to buy our books than Amazon. Instead of putting $ in Bezos' pocket, every purchase on @bookshop-org.bsky.social financially supports independent bookstores. You can even select the bookstore you'd like to support.

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

Had a "device check" today - 11 years of battery left on the pacemaker/defibrillator. So, I got that going for me😜

What could possibly go wrong ?

The ladies who went to Bill Huizenga's office today trapped Brian Patrick (Boomer) in the hall and asked questions around DOGE access to personal data. Bill should be answering, not staffers.

I went to Congressman Bill Huizenga's office today with 7 other ladies asking for Town Hall meeting with our Congreessman. We know Bill is on town, as he was touring a medical facility in Ottawa County today. We were told to request a mtg via website.

My 86 yo Mom called today asking if she could sue Musk for for theft of her personal info. I see Fed worker unions have filed suits, any recourse for regular folks that get Social Security payments? I told her this is a question for ACLU - just wondering if any lawyers here can direct us?

Tomorrow I'll be speaking at a press conference at the U.S. Capitol. Standing alongside Mrs. Sicknick as we continue this seemingly impossible journey for accountability. I'll be joined by Whip Katherine Clark, Benny Thompson, Bonnie Watson Coleman and other lawmakers committed to this fight.

THIS! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Very happy to get started here - music, politics and saving democracy are my passions.
