WOW. The Pentagon just confirmed that THREE Chinese balloons flew over the U.S. during the Trump presidency & not only did he not shoot them down, but he also didn’t say anything about it. Shows you how ridiculous Republicans are right now by only talking about the balloon.

Super interesting. Facebook, Google, and Amazon’s VERY LOUD job cuts sure don’t seem to be representative at this point.

Non-farm payrolls added a cracking 517,000 jobs in January, well above market expectations of +190k. This is a breathtaking number. That spike in stories about layoffs? It was about a small unrepresentative slice of the economy. Real America is still getting back to work.

Lauren Boebert, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Paul Gosar, Matt Gaetz, the rest of the insurrectionists tried to violently overthrow our democracy. They should never have been allowed to stay in Congress. They should have been arrested. Our system is broken.

BREAKING: The US Economy grew by 3.91% in Q4. While many thought the US economy would go into recession, President Biden is relentlessly working to build an economy from the bottom up and middle out. It's working.

Tweet: Trans people deserve to live safely and with dignity. Elon: Nice virtue signaling 🤣 Tweet: There is a group of people who control the media and banks and are responsible for all our problems but we’re not allowed to say who it is because of wokeness ;) Elon: Interesting.

Don’t let the Elon Musk stuff distract from the fact that last night the Senate passed a $858,000,000,000 “defense” budget—**$45 BILLION** more than was requested. No one asked how we’d pay for it. Don’t tell me we can’t guarantee healthcare and college for everyone.

In the past 24 hours, Ukrainians have been been blocked from signing up for Twitter using their phone numbers and using 2FA and accounts tracking Russian oligarchs' jets have been suspended. What happens here can seem like a sideshow, but this is a direct threat to democracy.
