Elon Musk has committed a blatant felony by offering money for votes in order to help Brad Schimel. This is a chainsaw attack on democracy and the rule of law. Musk should be brought to justice immediately. 🧵

American war planning usually takes place in highly secure facilities. But the Trump administration planned its strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg. theatln.tc/IuULQFiY

SICKENING—Trump’s DHS just deported a surgeon from Brown—who is here legally on an H1B visa that doesn’t expire until 2027, & committed no crimes. Trained in the U.S. at Ohio State, University of Washington, and Yale as a transplant surgeon, she is a highly trained doctor on kidney transplants.

If this is all a headfake by @schumer.senate.gov to fool Dem voters into believing Senate Dems tried to stop the Trump/Musk destruction while voting for cloture to enable it, that's going make Dems' electoral problems even worse. They will have proven to their base that voting for them is pointless.

I said what I said: calls to move the Dem party to the “center” are bad politics & risk betraying Dems’ core values. Instead, the party must forcefully defend democracy against authoritarian capture: rule of law, anti-corruption & econ populism are winning positions. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/11/o...

Pathetic, @kaine.senate.gov. At the very least, you need to say "This administration is refusing to give Congress information we're legally entitled to, but based on the reporting it seems that Trump has given Elon Musk a dangerous and probably illegal amount of access to very sensitive data."

It's not unreasonable to want answers immediately from the President about why an Army helicopter was in front of a commercial jetliner, and to demand concrete steps to prevent it from happening again. Buck stops with him. Or is he too busy with golf, EOs, and fake bribery settlements?
