What could we do with the $12B Trump spent on the first week of war with Iran? - Housing help for ~1 million Americans - Lower prescription drug costs - Fund national parks for 3+ years - Give Pell grants to 1.6 million students - Pay the salaries of 100,000+ teachers and nurses

A number of Senate Democrats have reportedly had “general discussions” about whether to skip Trump’s State of the Union address on February 24th. Senate Democratic Whip Dick Durbin said “virtually everyone is thinking about it.” For me, it’s a no-brainer. SKIP THE SOTU ADDRESS. #SOTU

Isaac Asimov – “There is a Cult of Ignorance in the United States. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that Democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”

#Pinks #ProudBlue SHUT IT DOWN. Sadly it sounds like ICE and CBP employees will still get paid because of the $180 billion the Big Beautiful Bill appropriated for DHS. This is the only way to rein them in. I wouldn’t care if it stays shut down until 2028. apnews.com/live/trump-d...

Kash Patel stopped FBI agents from investigating Renee Good’s killing because the findings might’ve contradicted their narrative that she was a “domestic terrorist.” We cannot trust a word coming out of this Admin. DHS must allow Minnesotan authorities to investigate, NOW.

Sen. Ossoff Statement on FBI Raid of Fulton County Elections Office
Jon Ossoff
U.S. SENATOR FOR GEORGIA
SEN. OSSOFF ON FBI RAID OF FULTON COUNTY
ELECTIONS OFFICE
'After losing Georgia in 2020, Donalc Trump demanded state officials 'find' votes to change the outcome, tried to use DOJ to overturn it, and spread conspiracy theories that led to the Jan. 6 sacking of the U.S.
Capitol.
"I suspect today's raid is a continuation of this sore loser's crusade, despite repeated audits and independent reviews confirming that Donald Trump was indeed defeated.
'From Minnesota to Georgia, on display to the whole world is a President spiraling out of control, wielding federal law enforcement as an unaccountable instrument of personal power and revenge.

This is so unhinged
"He told me that he doesn't understand what's wrong with Minnesota. 'I don't know what's wrong with you people,'" Walz said Wednesday in an exclusive interview with MS NOW senior national and political correspondent Jacob Soboroff.
"I said, 'Nothing's wrong, Mr. President. We're one of the most effective states and one of the best places to live?
"And he told me, 'Well, look, Tim, we did this in New Orleans, we did it in Louisville, there's no problems? And I said, 'You didn't kill anybody in Louisville or New Orleans. And the operation here looks very different from that.?
"And then he told me it was successful in Venezuela," Walz said.

For MAGA, the 1,600 Jan. 6 rioters pardoned by Trump are not white supremacist cop-beaters, violent criminals & seditious conspiracists: they are “patriots,” “political prisoners” & “hostages.” MAGA is rewriting history. Democrats will keep telling the truth, the foundation of democracy.

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed. Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it. When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

Trump hates Europe’s democracies because they have universal health care, a strong social welfare system and heavy unionization. He prefers MBS’s Saudi Arabia, where one trillionaire family runs a brutal dictatorship. What a betrayal of American values!
