Trump doesn’t give a damn about us, he only cares about billing us for his tax breaks for the richest of the rich. Screwing Minnesotans by putting us in the middle of a trade war with our *ally* is beyond insanity.

Musk and Trump should have to face the hardworking Park Rangers they sacked. I’m bringing Kate, who was unjustly fired from northern Minnesota’s Voyageurs National Park, to the State of the Union.
Kate Severson, a federal park ranger at Voyageurs National Park in Minnesota. Severson was one of the thousands of newly-hired federal workers to be abruptly fired Friday, February 14, 2025, as part of the Trump administrations push to downsize the federal government.

That press conference was choreographed for an audience of one and he sits in Moscow. Once, we fought tyrants. Today Trump and Vance are bending America’s knee. And that weakens us.

Call out to all the Republicans who have posed for photo ops with Zelensky: Is today the day to finally speak out? Patriotism demands it.

Musk and DOGE are putting people’s lives and safety at risk — where are the Republicans ready to stand up and protect your constituents?
@EthanClarkWX: NWS has fired meteorologists as a direct result of upper-level heads telling them to do so. Let me be clear, people will die because of this. Absolutely insane.. I have no words for it. I’ve spent all day I mean all day in meetings with both republicans and democrats fighting.

The next time you hear Republicans mention tax cuts, ask yourself: For who? Because unless you’re in the top 5%, it’s probably not you.

This is corruption in plain sight. Musk is getting sweetheart deals for his companies, DOGE is helping him do it, and the President is cheering him on. This isn’t about government efficiency, but making him richer.

The FAA may cancel a $2.4 billion contract with Verizon and instead give it to Starlink, owned by Elon Musk, WaPo reports. This would be his latest opportunity to get richer off of taxpayers. Musk and his businesses have received $38 billion in federal contracts and subsidies.

Some more Minnesotans that have been screwed by Musk/Trump: * Forest Service worker who helps loggers sell timber * Veteran at the VA (who rooted out waste!) * Another veteran at the Small Business Administration who helped startups

Let’s call this what it is: A closed-door meeting where Republicans huddle up and find out how they can give boatloads of our money to the richest among us and leave pennies for everyone else. They’ll pay for it by defunding Medicaid, which ~40% of kids rely on. The villains in any story book.
Ben Guggenheim (@ben_guggenheim): NEW: White House to begin hosting weekly tax discussions with congressional leadership -> Including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Speaker Mike Johnson, Ways and Means Chair Jason Smith and Finance Chair Mike Crapo

How can you tell that Trump and Musk don’t actually care about going after waste and fraud? They just fired someone at the Minnesota VA whose job was to find waste/inefficiencies to save taxpayer money. It’s all a façade to shell out more money for billionaires and big corporations.

Sharp cuts at the Department of Housing and Urban Development are likely to upend housing markets, make homes less affordable and roil mortgage transactions, according to current and former employees, contractors and housing experts.
HUD cuts expected to worsen America’s housing crisis, staffers say

That’s Tammy Baldwin — not me. You can keep track of all the hundreds of white men but it’s the 28 women in the Senate that trips you up, Fox News?

How far have we fallen as a country that we are siding with Russia and North Korea to vote against condemning Russia's actions in Ukraine?

Today, the US stood with Russia and North Korea — and against our allies — in voting against a UN resolution to condemn Russia's aggression against Ukraine. Let that sink in. This is a betrayal of the Ukrainian people, our allies, our interests and those who aspire for freedom.
