During WW2, four brothers from a Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived.

His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky a Hero!

Republicans want to fully repeal the estate tax.

This would result in a massive tax cut for the wealthiest families and further entrench an American aristocracy.

How will Republicans pay for it?

With major cuts to social programs like Medicaid and SNAP.

Trickle up economics.

WHAT ILLEGAL ACTIVITY should be the resounding chorus from the press
State Department spox Tammy Bruce just blatantly lies and says that students are getting visas revoked for "illegal activity" (Rumeysa Ozturk was not charged with a crime)

A thread on the moment and what it means for feds. The Civil Service Reform Act envisions 3 guardrails to protect civil servants: (1) An Office of Special Counsel to investigate allegations of prohibited personnel practices, (2) the Merit Systems Protection Board to hear cases, and (3) unions. 1/
And the MSPB loses its quorum...
BREAKING: D.C. Circuit, on a 2-1 vote, allows for Trump's firing of members of multi-member independent boards — Gwynne Wilcox, National Labor Relations Board and Cathy Harris, Merit Systems Protection Board — to go into effect during appeals. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

It’s a filibuster. The point is to talk talk talk and make R lives as miserable as humanly possible in the process.

Please learn how the senate works before commenting on things like this again. You look like a childish clown otherwise.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Putin and Xi will be grateful for the phrase “disrupting a tired diplomatic paradigm.”

Not equating today and 30s/40s, but we need a Klemperer to record and understand shifts in language.

This is not good.

If RFK jr is confirmed this will go from not good to bad.

If he follows Trump’s orders, destroys the HHS dept and they continue with their zero transparency nonsense feeding us half truths…it will go from bad to “what time is the funeral?”

Donold’s supporters don’t care if they lose their jobs or their freedom as long as he is performatively ‘owning the libs.’ That’s how much they have been taught to hate you.

This means that we now need highly qualified computer specialists to ensure that no digital backdoor has been installed by Musk’s guys. — Does our sluggish, outdated justice system understand this problem?
BREAKING: we just blocked Musk & Trump out of the Treasury systems!

Court order just secured — big win by us at @sddaction.bsky.social & our partners including @publiccitizen.bsky.social!

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.

It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.

There should be no profit in education or healthcare.
