Listen to what she says. Repost. Send it to friends. If all it is is we the people than it’s we the people. Remember this, we are ordinary citizens. Teachers, chefs, lawyers, judges, nurses, cashiers, autoworkers, homeless parents, docs, electricians, mechanics, immigrants, veterans. We the people!

A month later, this report still hasn’t been contradicted. No one—not even avid Musk fans—has been able to identify even a single _personal_ achievement of his of an _intellectual_ character (i.e., _not_ paying for someone else to hire experts or paying those experts). Musk is a non-genius fraud.

I love that Judge Xinis, by ordering the govt to tell her what they’ve done rather than telling them what to do, has reduced them to flailing. “The plaintiffs are demanding we do X, which is overreach!” Ah, but the court hasn’t asked you to do X. The court is just asking: what have you done?

Harvard refuses to be a tool of totalitarianism and propaganda. I hope defiance is contagious. Now Trump has frozen research grants at Dana-Farber, including into the cancer treatment that saved my dad's life. This is cruelty beyond measure. open.substack.com/pub/virginia...

Jonathan Swan, of the NYT, asks Ms Leavitt (all paraphrased) "The President said that it was a terrible abuse of power for the prior Admin to prosecute him. How is it not then an abuse of power when he directed his own DOJ to investigate two people he doesn't like?" Leavitt: "That's his policy."

He’s going to be fired because he outed the fact that Musk arranged with Hegseth to get a top secret briefing at the Pentagon. Trump and his Chief of Staff didn’t even know about it. As usual, in Trump World, the person who does the right thing is the one who is punished.

“Yet right here in DC we have a 34 count felon being harbored in the White House.” She does not mince words, is not here to play pretend government, and is unabashed in calling out the egregious hypocrisy. If just a few more people had a fraction of her courage and skill, we wouldn’t be here.
