I’ve watched soap operas with more sophisticated storylines than what is happening in Washington right now

The real reason behind Trump's attack on the American mind https://twp.ai/4in2YK

A sick obsession is killing workers, democracy and our planet https://twp.ai/4in4hu

The Felon President is condemning ‘waste’ and firing workers and trying to slash Medicaid – while cashing in by traveling to his own golf resorts and over-charging secret service to stay there. Read more here: bit.ly/4imHMET #DonTheCon

It’s time, isn’t it?! 🤚

I never want to hear the phrase ‘Republicans are better on the economy’ again.

The issue is not whether norms are observed. It is whether a strategy is being implemented. Right now, there is no opposition strategy that is evident in DC. By contrast, we are seeing D AGs implementing a strategy they developed over months in the courts to substantial success. 1/

Schumer’s decision is an unconscionable surrender that shows he does not have what it takes to meet this moment, and the charade he pulled yesterday makes it even worse. Time for new leadership in the Democratic Party.

Follow expeditiously @electdemocrats.bsky.social D Trip (Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee) elects Democrats and drops bangers like this 🔥

This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

"The SAVE Act does not include proof of name change or a marriage certificate as acceptable proof of identity. This could be vital for married women with a birth certificate that does not match their current legal name" www.newsweek.com/save-act-rai...

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

🚨Disabled Iraq War Veteran Eric Rodriguez isn’t mincing words: “They’re slashing staff, crushing unions, and selling out the VA—for what? So billionaires can make more money while Veterans sit on a waitlist. Or worse, get no treatment.”

Why would Musk, who the Trump administration claims in court is not in charge of DOGE, tell a bunch of republican senators that he's in charge of DOGE? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

In today’s hellscape news, the Trump administration is planning to cut 80,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA is already short-staffed and wait times are abhorrent. Veterans will die because of this move.

DOGE firings have upended the lives of thousands of hardworking civil servants — including park rangers, disease researchers, and veterans. Meanwhile, DOGE's own staffers are drawing hefty six-figure government salaries from the very agencies they are sabotaging. "Efficiency."

Slashing 80,000 employees when the VA is already severely understaffed couldn't be a more blatant attack on veterans in this country. If you won't stand for these appalling cuts, help me spread the word.

There’s nothing wrong with Billionaires having billions. There is something inherently wrong with billionaires cutting your benefits, and help to the poor through USAID, and running around with a chainsaw giggling. You can have power or billions. But we refuse to be an oligarchy

I’m on my way to the Treasury Dept to demand answers. Billionaire-in-Chief Elon Musk has been given illegal access to Americans’ private info, including Social Security numbers. Zero people voted for Elon to run our government. This is about oversight and transparency.

Why can’t the Secret Service arrest Musk and his little goons?? Part of their job is to investigate crimes against the US financial system?????

OPINION | Snap out of it America. All the warning lights are flashing, writes @djrothkopf.bsky.social.

This is our moment to act. Trump & Musk are already consolidating power. If @senatedemocrats.bsky.social don’t shut this down NOW, no one will. LFG‼️ #RiseAndGrind

Elon Musk gave Trump $250m, so Trump handed him control of America's checkbook. Musk and his 20-something DOGE cadre can now access your social security number, home address and more. This is unprecedented corruption, an invasion of privacy, and a threat to national security.
