The cruelest part of the Musk-Trump shutdown is that their little Johnson will continue to be paid—despite the fact that he fails miserably at his job—while thousands of dedicated civil servants will be forced to work while not knowing when their next paycheck will come. At Christmas.

Whenever someone tries to silence me, it only makes me louder. I know what it’s like to have a hand over my mouth and a boot on my neck. I know what it’s like to have someone steal your voice from you. But I got out of it. I emerged stronger. And I will never let anyone silence me ever again.

It shouldn’t be ignored that Kash Patel chose to plead the Fifth in response to a grand jury subpoena over the Mar-a-Lago classified documents. He only testified, involuntarily, after being granted immunity. Think about that. Trump’s FBI nominee pled the Fifth in response to a DOJ subpoena.

No Chuck, we should not do the thumbs up. He also should not have had a good time laughing it up with Trump at the Al Smith Dinner right before the election, but too late for that one. We need new leadership. I’ll say it if nobody else will.

Trump didn't fuck up the US, he took over something that was already broken & abused. Nothing in that country is normal or has been normal in a very long time. Which from the outside, it is horrifying to see a country so powerful and subjugated, so involved in our lives and apathetic to them too.

To recap, the guy nominated Ambassador to Israel does not recognize Palestine and the guy picked to lead the military gets drunk a lot and yells stuff like "Kill all Muslims". I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.

PSA: If you’re currently twisting yourself into some sort of false equivalency “abuse of power” pretzel in order to make Joe Biden pardoning his son the same as Trump pardoning those who killed our Capitol police in his name, please stop. You look stupid.

I just want to say that even though I am the Board Chair and Executive Director of a 501(c)4 non-profit that is clearly going to be in the crosshairs of the Trump Administration… I will never back down. You can count on that. I hope and believe that many of my peers will stand with me.

Couple things about Russia’s IRBM/ICBM attack on Ukraine: 1. Well, we know at least some of their ballistic missiles work. This is not unexpected 2. It’s a clear escalation by Russia, but one that I think highlights the fact that—at this point at least—they don’t want to cross the rubicon on nukes

Which is precisely why the GOP constantly seeks to control and degrade the education process. If you keep voters dumb and afraid, they’re far easier to manipulate.

The allegations in the media report on Hegseth’s sexual assault are vile. The Trump team was already looking at potential replacements because they feel like Hegseth mislead them. Now we wait to see if they accelerate the replacement or double down on the nomination.
