As Trump now actively helps Russia kill Ukrainian soldiers and civilians, the silence of Republicans who used to say they were staunch supporters of Ukraine is deafening.

“People are doing things.” Have you dropped in yet on the 24-hour livestream of Black leaders giving the “State of the People”? This is an extraordinary gathering of leaders, activists and journalists.
Will go on until midnight tonight. Get on it!

I would think the GOP would LOVE town halls, given their amazing success with the economy, the stable international situation, and how beloved Elon Musk is by the American people.

Farmers are going to run to Congress for another handout to deal with the retaliatory tariffs and the answer from Dems has to be "no."

This isn't out of retribution, it's because we can't keep creating escape hatches for GOP members of Congress. For the benefit of all, keep the pressure on them.

#EconomicBlackout
No Amazon. No Walmart. No Target. No Disney. No Google. No Apple. No Visa or Mastercard. And especially no Facebook or Twitter. Buy essentials such as medicine, food, and emergency supplies, of course, but make those purchases at small, local businesses and use cash. The purpose of today’s economic blackout is to send a clear message: We have the power.

New - Another "Fork in the Road" email has gone out to federal employees with FAQs about the deferred resignation program. This is the third they've received.
Q: The current funding bill for the federal government expires on March 14. Will I still receive full pay and benefits if the money runs out? A: Any government shutdown could potentially affect an employee's pay regardless of whether he or she has accepted the deferred resignation offer. Moreover, if you accept the deferred resignation offer, you would still be entitled to backpay under the Government Employee Fair Treatment Act of 2019. See 31 U.S.C. 1341(c)(2). Q: Does my agency have VERA for employees who opt to take the deferred resignation offer? A: Yes. Employees who are eligible for the deferred resignation offer and are at least age 50 with at least 20 years creditable Federal service, or any age with at least 25 years creditable Federal service are eligible for VERA along with the deferred resignation offer (unless your position is exempted from the deferred resignation program by your agency). Q: I am scheduled to retire soon after September 30, 2025. Can I take advantage of the deferred resignation program? A: If your retirement date is between October 1, 2025 and December 31, 2025, you are still eligible for deferred resignation (unless your position is exempted from the deferred resignation program by your agency). If your retirement date is within this window, your deferred resignation date will be extended to match your retirement date. Q: How can I make it clear that I would like to resign AND retire (not just resign)? A: You are welcome to type "resign and retire" into the reply email but it is not required. If you simply write "resign" and you are eligible for retirement on or before December 31, 2025, we will process your resignation with retirement as of September 30 OR your actual retirement date (if it is between September 30 and December 131, 2025).

Musk is so fake worried about where the taxpayers money is going when he doesn’t even pay any fucking taxes.

"...a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power."
