Remember back in the day when Congress used to be in charge of appropriations?

We are the laughing stock of the world.

This is amazing. Art says it all

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." —FDR, 1937

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

REP. @aoc.bsky.social : “It’s important to remember there’s more of us than them — every one of us can be sand in the gears of an injustice.”

🎯🎯

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

I think for President's Day we should all take to social media and use hashtag #trumpisapedo I think thats the perfect way to really show what we think of Trump. Imagine his face waking up and that being the most talked about social media tag. The truth hurts. Fuck Trump.

I’m tired of the ignorance of voters saying “idk what the big deal is about requiring id to vote”🤦🏽‍♀️ ppl take a civics class & understand the 24th Amendment makes poll taxes ILLEGAL! Ah yes that word illegal. You can’t make ppl PAY for a document to vote… it violates the constitution, so no SAVE Act!

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov FFS, why are you not going to the American public with this en masse? It’s tax time — why are you not on every network and social media channel with alternate budgets showing what we’re not getting while this money is spent this way? Come ON

@democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social No money for DHS until EVERY child is released from custody. NO money for detention centers. No more money for Nazi tactics. Your voters are watching.

Holy shit, @nytimes.com — seriously? In The Daily, you frame the looming shutdown as “Democrats picking a fight with the president over funding”? Shame on you. So glad I canceled my subscription.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

From @wired.com: “Federal records reveal ICE is secretly expanding into 150+ facilities across nearly every state — many near schools, medical offices, and places of worship… DHS asked the General Services Administration to hide lease listings and bypass normal procedures…”🤔

She’s a monster

👇👇👇👇

Every woman should read this. And every male doctor, nurse, medical researcher—you know what? Just everyone read it.

🤷🏻‍♂️

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

Sorry to be Radical Left but I don't think we should put people who haven't committed a crime, and aren't even accused of committing a crime, into any sort of "Detention"

This is literally what CURRENT LAW requires. It’s in the Constitution! www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

NO LIES 👇 DETECTED.......

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Wait—is there something going on today besides the Puppy Bowl?

When Voting day arrives..it would benefit the Democratic Voters to hang around outside the Polling Places in massive numbers..this was suggested by one of my State Democratic Reps who is awesome...organize it.. this is how can make it safe for your fellow Citizens to Vote in Person...

I will not vote for any candidate who runs with "we need to move forward" and refuses to prosecute this administration for every single one of their crimes. Accountability is all.

Good Q @SarahKSilvermam

OBAMA: “People make excuses for him. They say he’s not serious. Everything a president says is serious!”🔥

It's obvious but still striking to consider that we have a United States government driven solely by one man's emotional dysregulation and dysfunction.

Gestapos opened fire, striking Martinez 5 times in the arm, chest & both legs 1 gestapo had body cam ... Martinez has said in court that it shows an officer shouting "do something b--" The gestapo who shot her, in a group text: "I fired 5 rounds & she had 7 holes. Put that in your book, boys."

One lesson from the Epstein–Mandelson affair is that we need to stop routinely rehabilitating political careers after serious scandals. When politicians knowingly engage in grave ethical wrongdoing, that should permanently end their political careers. Being "talented" should not override that.

Immigrants are carrying this country on their backs while the right screams into the void. Here’s the Cato Institute report: www.cato.org/blog/cato-st...

We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”

i think people should consider the extent to which bannon, a known bullshit artist, knows that you will see this and panic. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Why anyone thinks the GOP is better for the economy remains one of the great mysteries. They are consistently terrible at it. Dumpster-fire level. For decades.

Excellent news.

For those keeping score at home:

Garcia: I want to remind the American public of Stephen Miller. There's probably no single person in this government that has done more damage and more harm to people across this country than this man right here. It's our job to hold him responsible

Never forget: Pam Bondi and Kash said there was nothing in the Epstein files back in March
