๐จNEW: GOP Senator Susan Collins has announced she will vote to confirm Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence.
RETWEET if you think @SenatorCollins is a disgrace to our democracy!
To our faithful public servants across America:
HOLD THE LINE -- do NOT resign.
Stay in your job, keep reporting for duty, and make them fire you.
Because they CAN'T fire you - it's ILLEGAL - and we will stop them in the courts.
WE'VE GOT YOUR BACK.
๐จ BOOOOOM!!!
Senator Bennet might have just ended RFK Jr.'s chances of being nominated as HHS Secretary. Watch how he cuts through the BS and asks the tough questions.
THIS is how you do it.
Let's be clear about what happened today: Donald Trump tried to cut a giant chunk of government fundingย โ hurting preschoolers, seniors, and veterans.
Trump's illegal shutdown is blocked for now โ but don't forget that he tried to cut programs supporting working families.
The president can veto or support legislation. He can make recommendations to Congress. But he doesn't have the unilateral right to change laws.
Trump has very little respect for the rule of law & our Constitution. He is moving us toward authoritarianism.
We must stop him.

Rachel Maddow, on President Biden's farewell address. Let me remind people, Germany's Nazis were a collaboration between the government and wealthy Germans. For all intents and purposes, 2025 America is a facsimile of 1934 Germany โ and tonight, Biden warned us of exactly that.
NEW: In a victory for voters, a North Carolina court rejected the RNC's request to toss out 60,000 ballots cast in statewide races last November. The GOP claims that these voters did not provide the required ID when registering to vote. https://t.co/4fTm95WHPc
Hey friends--asking people to set their notifications for me yet again and to please engage my posts. The owner promised to shadowban content critical of the incoming admin and that didn't offer positive content, so my engagements are way down. I need to keep them up as I fight this #cancer as it is a very expensive disease to have. Please ๐ if you see this. Thank you.
Thousands of burning embers the size of golf balls were thrown ahead of the fires by strong winds, says L.A. County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone. The result: unlike most fires that run uphill, these blasted downhill, Marrone says. https://t.co/1DRodTzc8L
