If you're furious at Dems who are not fighting, help the Dems who are.

We're going up against Elon Musk and the GOP machine in Wisconsin on April 1.

Throw yourself into electing Susan Crawford and beating Brad Schimel—and you'll send a message to the whole country.

There’s a major shift in U.S. cybersecurity policy. A recent CISA memo removed Russia from its list of priorities, focusing instead on China and local systems. Analysts were told not to track Russian cyber threats.

Repeat after me:

DOGE has already illegally shut down much of the government.

DOGE has already illegally shut down much of the government.

DOGE has already illegally shut down much of the government.

Keep that in mind as Democrats "debate" a continuing resolution "strategy." #ItsAlreadyShutdown

Call your rep. Demand a town hall. If they’re GOP and won’t give one, invite a Dem to your district in their place. Congressional switchboard: (202) 224-3121

I could only watch a third of the Zelensky/Trump/Vance press conference. And as an American, I am appalled, disgusted, and so incredibly sorry for the way President Zelensky was treated. And God bless his patience, because I have NONE.

Black History month. Student created quilt with squares inspired by underground railroad code and African American heroes. Black History is American History.

"North Carolina senator Thom Tillis told people that the FBI warned him about 'credible death threats' when he was considering voting against Pete Hegseth’s nomination for defense secretary...

"Tillis ultimately provided the crucial 50th vote to confirm."

“They’re Scared Shitless”: The Threat of Political Violence Informing Trump’s Grip on Congress
With the president smashing norm after norm, even lawmakers within his party have feared for their personal safety, and at least one has told confidants that it has swayed his decision-making.

DOGE released a list of canceled contracts totaling $16 billion in supposed savings. Nearly half of that came from an $8 billion ICE contract which was really worth $8 million. A closer look at federal records shows the $55 billion figure lacks any real documentation. Share to stop misinformation.

I'll take any help preventing the complete fall of our democracy. I dislike him as much as anyone, but we can't solve the pressing and important cultural/identity injustices if we don't have a democracy left to use in solving those problems.

Black History month! Audre Lorde- American writer, professor, philosopher, intersectional feminist, poet and civil rights activist, "Black, lesbian, feminist, socialist, mother, warrior, poet." She believed there could be "no hierarchy of oppressions".

How we feeling about this folks?
Not according to Marbury v. Madison.

Musk wants to inspect our IRS data to catch everyday Americans committing tax fraud—an overreach of DOGE’s power. Personal tax data has nothing to do with government efficiency.

Tomorrow is President's Day. I'll be remembering a time I was proud of my president and had a hope. I'll be remembering President Obama and all he stood for.
It's black history month, and he so happened to be the first black president, serving two terms. Forever my president.

Black History month! We could learn from the Black Panthers in these difficult times.
I was one of those kids that got fed. They didn't care what color you were or about your income, they just did the right thing and I have never forgotten it. We were too poor to afford breakfast.

@aoc.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov @vanhollen.senate.gov what now?
If you thought it wasn’t possible—well, here we are. Musk pulled $80 million in funding authorized by Congress straight from NYC’s bank account. The federal government took the funds and called it a “clawback” of taxpayer money.
