I think Stephen Colbert should be the fill-in host for all the nighttime comedians, when they go on vacation.

Bernie Leads POWERFUL RALLY in GOP TERRITORY

Dear #Ukraine, Most Americans are appalled by 45's behavior, which does not reflect our nation's true sentiments. We stand with you in solidarity. We recognize the injustice you face. 45's actions are a stain on our diplomacy, but they do not define our collective heart. #SlavaUkraini
Marjorie Taylor Greene says federal workers "don’t deserve their jobs or paychecks" She still collects the taxpayer-funded $174K salary to spew nonsense. If federal jobs aren’t “real,” does that include hers? Or is hypocrisy just another government benefit? #MTG #Cuts #DOGE #PresidentElon
45’s #WhiteHouse declaring “Long live the king” isn’t just a meme. It’s a warning. This wannabe #dictator SCREAMING his intentions; his cult cheers as democracy burns. America fought a revolution to escape a #king. The #GOP crowns one. If this doesn’t terrify you, you’re not paying attention.
Accountability? Deleted. 45 just killed the National Law Enforcement Accountability Database, erasing records of police misconduct. What we can't see can't hurt us, right? Wrong. Blind trust isn’t trust, it’s surrender. And that’s exactly the point. ##PoliceAccountability #Corruption #BLM
Another #PlaneCrash today in Arizona: 2 planes, 2 dead. 9 crashes since 45 and Musk gutted aviation staff. 1/29 – Washington, D.C. 1/31 – Pennsylvania 2/5 – Washington 2/6 – Alaska 2/10 – Arizona 2/12 – California 2/16 – Georgia 2/17 - Minnesota to Toronto 12/19 - #Arizona #NoFly #Trump #FAA
Exactly 14 American flags? Really? Still throwing Nazi signs? 14 is significant in the white supremacist world. It is often associated with a slogan known as the "14 Words," a white nationalist phrase: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." #dogwhistle
45: "He who saves his country does not violate any law" Pure authoritarian rot. That’s not patriotism; it’s the mantra of EVERY #dictator in history. The #Constitution is the #law. No one, especially a wannabe tyrant, is above it. If you break laws to “save” a nation, you’re destroying it.
We should ALL be SO proud of our National Parks Service. They are standing for democracy when most of our Democratic leaders are still stammering with shock. "S_onewall was a riot. You can't spell Stonewall without a T."
The removal of a transgender reference from the National Park Service’s Stonewall website wasn’t done by NPS staff. Elon, care to elaborate?
A 4-year-old sees through 45, Still Congress drags its feet. Beyond Corruption is complicity. Every delay normalizes his lawlessness. Impeachment is NECESSARY and OVERDUE! If a child can call it out, so can our leaders. www.youtube.com/shorts/JFuNy... #NotThePresident #Elon #PresidentElon
Elon Musk’s son tells Donald Trump, “You’re not the President and you need to go away”

Karoline Leavitt is what happens when Nellie Oleson grows up, reads The Handmaid’s Tale as a blueprint, and channels Miranda Priestly’s icy contempt. Only with less talent. Sneer, spin, and sell authoritarianism with a fake smile and a press pass. Welcome to the Disinformation Era. #Leavitt
The Kremlin just got a direct line to U.S. intelligence. Tulsi Gabbard; long accused of being a Russian asset; is now National Security Director. Every Democrat voted no. The only Republican to break rank? Mitch McConnell. When Moscow celebrates, America loses. #GOP #Traitors #TulsiGabbard
Jamie Raskin is floating a class-action lawsuit against Elon Musk & his hacker crew for breaching Americans’ personal data. Imagine all of us taking down the world’s richest man. Using his own arrogance & the law. BANKRUPT THE BILLIONAIRE, resist the takeover! #SueElon #Elon #Raskin #Resistance
How about this? Make a resolution that all Democratic members of the House and Senate read Project 2025? THEY GAVE YOU THE PLAN in April 2023! Can we PLEASE ask our Congress to do the required reading and show up for class with a book report and some notes? #Project2025 #Democracy #Resist
ND MAGA filed HCR 3020, forcing state workers to "acknowledge the Kingship of Jesus Christ over all the world." Cited source? The Bible (shocking). Reads like a sermon. 5 of 12 GOP sponsors also condemn marriage equality. Christian nationalism is here. #ChurchAndState #ChristianNationalism
Snoop Dogg and Tom Brady preaching about standing up to hate; AFTER Snoop performed at Trump’s inauguration. Supporting a racist, bigoted wannabe dictator isn’t standing against hate. You had your chance. #Hypocrisy #Snoop #SellOut #StandAgainstHate #Complicit #FakeAlly #Superbowl #FuckSnoop
The #CFPB has been gutted; operations halted, HQ locked, funding slashed to zero. Staff ordered to stop oversight. The ONLY reason to kill consumer fraud protections is to enable #ConsumerFraud. This isn’t eliminating waste spending; it’s green lighting corporations to exploit the public.
Kash Patel took $25K from Russian propaganda firm Global Tree Pictures for an anti-FBI film; plus a producer credit. He even appears in episode 4 of their TV series. And now he wants to RUN the FBI? A Kremlin-backed propagandist in charge of U.S. law enforcement? Absolutely not. #KashPatel
This is bad! Russ Vought, the architect of Project 2025, confirmed as the director of the BMO. The man who openly calls for a “post-constitutional” government now controls the budget. This is how authoritarianism takes hold: putting extremists in power. Block Everything! #RussellVought
Senate Dems need to shut it all down; Procedural warfare. Demand quorum counts. Object to unanimous consent. Grind everything to a halt with relentless boring bureaucracy. The GOP plays dirty; make every step hell. Use the rules. Stop the madness. Slow it to a crawl; SAY NO! #FightBack
There are 510,000 NCAA athletes; fewer than 10 are trans. The GOP is spending millions attacking this tiny, already marginalized group. All this effort, all this hate; for what? It’s never been about fairness, just cruelty. Us vs. Them...ism #TransRights #StopTheHate #Trans #lgbTq #HumanRights
