@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social: “I think Elon convinced himself of a story about all of the...ways they were going to tackle government spending. He staked his reputation on it. He looks like a fool. He's walking out the door, and the only thing he's lowered is the stock price of Tesla.”

"Just one more thing, sir. Since the election, you've announced 12 projects in foreign countries: the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, India, Qatar, & Oman. You got a $400 million jet, sold meme coins, $600 sneakers, Chinese bibles, & hats. How is any of this making America great?"

Now comes the part where House Republicans who already voted for the “abomination” say how much they respect Musk and agree with what he said, then the part where Senate Republicans say how much they respect Musk and agree with what he said before they end up voting for it too.

ICE’s own director *said it out loud*: agents wear masks so they won’t be ID’d online. Not for “safety”—but so they can keep terrorizing families in secret. Cowards. If you volunteer to carry out racist raids, don’t cry when the public holds you accountable. Actions have consequences.

Like nearly 40% of all New Yorkers, I wasn’t born in this country. I moved here at age 7. It’s my home. And I’m proud to be a citizen, which means standing up for our Constitution. Councilmember Paladino might consider reading it.

It was never about deporting violent criminals. If that were true, where are the examples? Trump would be shouting the victims’ names from the rooftops. What we’re actually seeing are heartbreaking videos of families torn apart by masked men who look more like white supremacists than ICE agents.

Republicans snuck an AI regulation BAN into the “Big Beautiful Bill.” That means companies like Real Page can use AI to get around price fixing laws and RAISE YOUR RENT. BUT this policy violates the Senate's budget rules. I'm calling foul — and fighting back to reject it.

I don't know whether Elon v Trump is real or going anywhere. But both have real weapons to use which they haven't. Elon can spend money pumping up resistance to the big beautiful bill. Trump can start yanking the contracts Elon gave himself running doge. Until those things happen, meh.

I’ve encountered zero political analysts who believe Donald Trump will leave office peacefully, and 100% of these analysts understand that Trump will need Hegseth and the Pentagon to hold onto power. Every story out of the Pentagon seems to have, as its subtext, WE ARE PREPARING FOR WHAT IS COMING.

I’m just going to say this. Hate me, get mad at me, unfollow me if you choose. While I am happy to see communities standing up and pushing back against ICE, I can’t help but think that they wouldn’t even have to be doing this. I ask myself, how many of them possibly voted for Trump—

Once again I am calling for Democrats to introduce legislation requiring standardized uniforms, visible badge numbers with names, as well as a requirement for ICE and DHS agents to present proof that there is enough danger present to be masked to a judge when they get their warrant.
