Hahahahaha..."Don't be such a Rubio!" hahahhhahahaha

Stephanie Kennedy @wordswithsteph.bsky.social · Mar 1

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.

Not a single offer.

Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?

JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back

R: Why not now?

J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · 6d

Pam Bondi admits she spoke to Apple to "get the ICEBlock app taken down." Sounds an awful lot like coercion to suppress disfavored speech to me. A clear violation of the 1st Amendment.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 7d

Bondi claims that the ICEBlock app was "criminal in that people were posting where ICE officers lived"

Not only is Trump’s use of the term “insurrection” a wild exaggeration of protests in Portland, but it’s also an obvious wink to the Insurrection Act, which can unlock great presidential powers.

There Is No Insurrection

Troops are for national defense, not displays of presidential power.

There is one reason and one reason only for Mike Johnson to refuse to seat Adelita Grijalva, and that is to protect Donald Trump from the Epstein Files discharge petition.

The House Speaker is derelict in his duty in order to cover up for child sex traffickers.

Johnson Cornered on Claims He’s Snubbing Dem to Avoid Epstein Vote

Democrat Adelita Grijalva has called on Speaker Mike Johnson to swear her in “NOW.”

People are right to be angry. It is absolutely shameful that the Government have restricted Covid boosters to such a small group. This is a huge gamble with the nation's health purely to save money. Here is how their argument runs: a thread 🧵

A headline reading "Pharmacies facing angry patients over Covid jab confusion". Below it is an image of a nurse drawing up a vaccine into a syringe from a vial.

This is not "de-escalation"—this is state violence. The actions being taken are far from calming the situation; instead, they exacerbate tensions and demonstrate a disturbing disregard for human rights.
