The current Republican Congress is made up of cowards. They all should be voted out in the Midterms. They do not work for us. They work for Trump. If someone walked up behind them and said primary, they would shit their pants. They have no credibility.
It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break. 🔗 www.wired.com/story/the-us...
Here are some of the government documents The 19th preserved amid the Trump-Musk purge: *Maternal mortality data (CDC) *Abortion and contraception data (CDC) *Reports on violence against Native American women (DOJ) *Research on mental health of girls and LGBTQ+ youth 19thnews.org/2025/02/fede...
What we saved from the federal government’s data purge
Many federal datasets and webpages are no longer accessible in order to comply with Trump’s executive order recognizing only two genders.

The only time I miss Twitter is when there’s a bachelor season going on.
One of my party facts is that according to polls, Americans believe foreign aid is about 25% of the federal budget and on average that it *should* be about 10%. The actual number is less than 1%. Foreign aid has long been a boogey man of the right, so it's not surprising they're vilifying it now.

BREAKING: Two USAID security officials denied Elon Musk’s DOGE crew access to classified material that they lacked clearance for. Trump just put them both on leave for doing their job. The lawlessness continues. Please make it STOP!
Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!
We're finally dismantling the federal government! Sure hope it doesn't serve essential functions that I've taken for granted my whole life
