"While his father Steve Witkoff acts as President Trump’s all-purpose special envoy, 32-year-old Zach Witkoff now heads up World Liberty, which has doled out at least $1.4 billion to both families" extraordinary reporting from @wsj.com www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

Trump's plan to rename Dulles airport after himself is tied to plans to grift off the name change.

My friend @ricksteves.bsky.social calls out MAGA’s lies and policies that are eroding democratic norms, including how federal budget choices are shifting wealth from working people to the rich. Watch in the link below. #EndPoverty #PovertyAbolitionists #DefendDemocracy

🚨 Breaking news in Epstein Case 🚨 The New Mexico Legislature has passed HR1 to convene a Truth Commission and investigate Epstein’s crimes in NM, including at Zorro Ranch—led by State Reps Andrea Romero and Marianna Anaya. Full explainer here: youtu.be/DnOTfR_msPw?...

Muslim Mayor Bans Pride Flags -- I'm not shocked, because I know what they believe, but you are shocked because you don't know jack crap about the Middle East.

That list honestly sounds like pretty instant street cred so...

They're asking for the identities of accounts that have posted anti-ICE content. 2/3

I understand that DHS has a subpoena list of hundreds of names they've provided to social media companies. 1/3

This is what an actual genocidal call looks like and an actual ethnic cleansing call looks like Antisemitism and Nazism at its finest Killing and genociding Jews is not going to save you from your own ills

Black history is a core part of American history—you cannot have one without the other.    While we celebrate the contributions and achievements of Black Americans this month, we also have to be clear-eyed about the hard work ahead to truly make our country fair and equal for all.

The Trump administration withdrew a rule to make sure the products YOU use every day—like makeup and skincare—are tested for cancer-causing asbestos. Is this Making America Healthy Again??

AG Bondi claims the administration has released everything—but a new analysis suggests it's only 2%. trib.al/vjXcnXW Investigators seized massive amounds of data from Epstein’s properties in Palm Beach, NYC, and of course, “pedophile island”—also known as Howard Lutnick’s favorite vacation spot.

Obama: "When I was president, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate, or cut off funding, but that's contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work. We shouldn't get discouraged by the fact we have a tougher job"

Note that this is a newish amendment to the Save America Act. The earlier version was plenty bad. But this is even worse. Curiously, I had a really hard time finding this latest version online. I knew to look only bc the Brennan Center alluded to an amendment along these lines.

Don Huffines and family changed the name and address of Jeffrey Epstein’s sprawling 10,000 acre ranch in New Mexico after using an LLC to purchase it anonymously. The ranch has reportedly never been searched as part of any criminal investigation related to Epstein (www.krtv.com/us-news/crim...).

Last year, multiple mega law firms pledged almost $1 BILLION in “pro bono” legal services to Convicted Felon Trump & his Regime. I am demanding these firms actually show their work as I don't think they’re benefiting society, but merely helping Trump line his own pockets. youtu.be/mUssE1KBbNw?...

Sri Lanka isn’t proof that reducing ag chemicals fails. It’s proof that sudden policy shocks during economic crises destabilize food systems. Transition requires time and planning, not overnight bans. A misleading oversimplification. 👇

Billionaires evaded over $168 billion in taxes while undocumented immigrants paid over $100 billion in taxes while receiving no benefits. I know who should be deported.

As someone who’s been poor most of my life, but has been around a lot of wealthy/rich people - yeah, they’re greedy and selfish, and think they somehow deserve to be rich, even if they inherited it. The most generous people I’ve known have been poor.

Florida ranks 3rd for the most measles cases in the U.S.: CDC www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/f...

Cases of measles cropped up in two centers for unauthorized immigrants in Arizona and Texas last month. They are almost 1,000 miles apart, yet the centers have one thing in common: They are operated by CoreCivic, a publicly traded detention company with a checkered track record.

Thiel ally Jeff Giesea & Mike Cernovich built MAGA3X & hosted the Deploraball attended by Thiel, Michael Flynn Jr. & Jack Posobiec who helped Trump by spreading BS about Dems & pedophilia, while an actual pedophile (Epstein) had invested $40M in Thiel’s VC firm. Charles Flynn now works w/ Thiel.

Everywhere this man goes he should be treated as if he murdered millions of children, because he did.

After a year of spectacular deregulation, “the United States will essentially have no laws on the books that enforce how efficient America’s passenger cars and trucks should be.” www.nytimes.com/2026/02/16/c...

Can confirm.

1: yes, in fact. as long as there are fascists you have to keep fighting them. this is not complicated. 2: the democrats are not taking on maga's position on trans rights. or abortion. or immigration. go home you are high

Happy Presidents Day, America! 🇺🇸   George Washington's birthday is a great reminder of his steadfast belief in our democracy and the rule of the PEOPLE. Not a king.

Breaking: The CDC reports SARS-CoV-2 levels *quadrupled* in Minnesota in the past week. Using harmonized wastewater estimates, we project 1 in 12 people in Minnesota are actively infectious. This is equivalent to a 59% chance of exposure in a room of 10 people....

So, I do a thing at work where I’m an interviewer from outside the immediate teams that the job opening is on, to counteract the potential bias in favor of hiring because they need a warm body in that spot, and the one quality I’ve come to the conclusion can’t be coached into existence is curiosity.

I’ve seen this person get retweeted by MAGA influencers like Benny Johnson. He’s not kidding. This is a real political goal he is pursuing. He has 425,000 followers on Facebook.

Remember Mamdani’s democratic socialist campaign promised to centered on affordability, including implementing free and faster bus service, freezing rents on stabilized apartments. This is all you’ve gotten.

Recently in one of the education sessions the doctors I work with run, they brought up how many children used to die from measles each year. 2 million. 2 MILLION children used to die every year, worldwide, from measles. That is the world anti-vaxxers want, and it is evil.
