Very long 🧵 Please bear with me, I need to get a couple things off my chest.

I worked for a non-profit that provided educational services for children and young adults with behavioral and instructional needs. Think IEP’s, 504’s, home care support, behavioral counseling, school instructional aides,

This is truly an attack on veterans. They stripped billions from the PACT Act toxic exposures fund. As Leader @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social makes clear. This is outrageous.

Free Mahmoud Khalil. It's important to protect speech, even, perhaps especially, when we don't agree what's being said. If we don't support other people's First Amendment rights, then who will protect ours? We have to all be in this together.

HERE IT IS…

Elon Musk wants to slash “entitlement spending” to cut the budget—which means Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are on the chopping block.

He claims the waste is in “entitlement spending,” and lies that undocumented immigrants are collecting benefits.

"Zelensky flew to Washington, but he walked into the Kremlin." – Rep. Jake Auchincloss

Trump’s Oval Office propaganda handed Putin a win and made Americans feel less safe and ashamed.

GOP, pick a side. America or Trump.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

MUSK LOSES BIG IN GERMANY

Germany’s CDU/CSU wins big, while the far-right AfD underperforms in second—despite backing from Elon Musk and JD Vance.

AfD is now likely to be completely shut out of the governing coalition.

For all you who continually whine “I’m not racist, I just think we need to have standards,” this is absorb this.No Black man could become head of the Joint Chiefs without meeting the standard. What they want is to harden a system of affirmative action for white guys.They what their grandfathers had.
Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story.

Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver.

This is what "merit" means to them.

King Musk-Trump removed the Black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour (without cause) and trying to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander.

Yep, being Black is a crime.

A lesson in how claims of meritocracy as justification for opposing DEI are often cover for the demand that we return to a system of preference for white men - whatever their qualifications. Fire a qualified Black man. Hire a statutorily unqualified white man. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?
