Cory Booker.

Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Massive gains in GOP strongholds in Florida.

Today was a good day for liberty, freedom, and democracy.

This is the beginning.

When Republicans last controlled Congress and Trump was President, they passed a massive tax cut for the rich that gave 83% of the benefits to the top 1% and added $2 TRILLION to the national debt. Now, they are scheming to add $4 TRILLION to the debt and gut Medicaid that 72 million

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

Liz Cheney condemns Trump and Vance:
 
"Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

To the @GOP senators and Congressmen who claim to support Ukraine, you do have some power… if you’re unwilling to exercise it then don’t pretend to care about your country more than your political career:

What I’ve been saying (screaming). Now there’s data.
adambonica.bsky.social Adam Bonica @adambonica.bsky.social · Feb 20
The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️
Scatterplot titled “Empirical Evidence of Ideological Targeting in Federal Layoffs: Agencies seen as liberal are significantly more likely to face DOGE layoffs.” • The x-axis represents Perceived Ideological Leaning of federal agencies, ranging from -2 (Most Liberal) to +2 (Most Conservative), based on survey responses from over 1,500 federal executives. • The y-axis shows Agency Size (Number of Staff) on a logarithmic scale from 1,000 to 1,000,000. Each point represents a federal agency: • Red dots indicate agencies that experienced DOGE layoffs. • Gray dots indicate agencies with no layoffs. Key Observations: • Liberal-leaning agencies (left side of the plot) are disproportionately represented among red dots, indicating higher layoff rates. • Notable targeted agencies include: • HHS (Health & Human Services) • EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) • NIH (National Institutes of Health) • CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) • Dept. of Education • USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development) • The National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE), despite its conservative leaning (+1 on the scale), is an exception among targeted agencies. • A notable outlier: the Department of Veterans Affairs (moderately conservative) also faced layoffs despite its size. Takeaway: The figure visually demonstrates that DOGE layoffs disproportionately targeted liberal-leaning agencies, supporting claims of ideological bias. The pattern reveals that layoffs were not driven by agency size or budget alone but were strongly associated with perceived ideology. Source: Richardson, Clinton, & Lewis (2018).

OMG this is horrible.

Rebecca Marodi, a California fire captain who was targeted by the right-wing as being a “DEI hire” & blamed for the LA fires, has been found stabbed to death.

May she rest in power. 💔

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Many journalists have written extensively about those externalities.

When these massive data centers come to town, they distort power supplies (per @bloomberg.com’s @leonardonclt.bsky.social, @naurtorious.bsky.social,

do you enjoy knowing that when you deposit money in a US bank, you won't lose that money? nice, right?

it's because bank deposits are insured by FDIC.

i don't know what FDIC ever did to these people, but apparently it too is now on their blow-it-up list:

The fuhrer released Biden’s hold on 2,000-pound bombs so Israel can finally “clean out” Gaza.

Thanks, Jill Stein. Gaza will make a beautiful all-inclusive resort.

In Germany today, Elon Musk spoke at a neo-Nazi campaign rally. Meanwhile in Wisconsin, a local news meteorologist is out of a job for criticizing Musk's Nazi salute at the Trump inaugural. As a former newsroom mgr, I have a few thoughts about all this⤵️ 1/
