Donald Trump's budget director Russell Vought is the architect not just of Project 2025 but of the past 36 chaotic days of Trump 2.0. We need to dig into Vought's philosophy of "radical constitutionalism" and where it could lead the nation.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

You cannot fire so many people and shutter so many agencies and services and not expect things to start to go very bad very quickly. Our job is to highlight not only the chaos and cruelty of the firings, but also the devastating consequences. The public must turn on this madness and soon.

The authoritarians & oligarchs benefit from us blaming eachother for the massive wealthy inequality in this country. Blame the corrupt billionaires, mega corporations, and big money in politics. Not your neighbor.

Why is nothing being done about a foreign born private citizen bullying his way into our private government databases??? This is not only a national security threat—it’s a criminal offense. He should be being arrested as we speak, not given a fucking office in our White House! WAKE UP, AMERICA!

I know fear and overwhelm is part of the tactic but knowing that isn’t helping the anxiety. I can’t seem to focus on anything but the horror right now. My usual coping skills aren’t working. Any advice? #politics #overwhelm #advice

There appear to be at least three separately operating heel factions breaking things within the government in wholly different ways right now. There's the Miller-headed immigration one, the DOGE/Elon one, and a Project 2025 OMB one. This dynamic hasn't showed up in mainstream reporting at all.

The Democratic Party needs new messaging strategies. We ALL know this. The predatory & patriarchal system of the past is broken. Now is our chance. Going back to the same tired “establishment” folks who failed us in 2024 is not the way forward. I truly hope @kenmartin.bsky.social understands this.

Old Guard Democrats on the hill need to get over their prejudice against digital media and content creators if they want to amplify their messages. Get on every podcast every day. Build audiences. Create a massive digital messaging network. Adapt or get left behind.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Broadly, the Left should be supporting the boycott on Target. People are organizing outside of electoral politics to impact a giant corporation by withholding their money. It’s a strike, but for consumers. It’s working class empowerment. There must be solidarity.

My organization @strikeforall is aware Black and other minority-owned companies are still on the shelves. We Are Somebody aims to make sure we urge those participating in the boycott to support these companies, preferably by buying from them directly. #BoycottTarget

The worst thing about Musk's Nazi salute wasn't the laughable way he denied it, or that certain journalists and even the ADL defended it. It's that he proved political figures can be openly Nazi and face no repercussions, as long as they gaslight critics. (But soon they won't even have to do that.)

RESIST. Don't quit. Don't stop fighting. Don't obey in advance. Don't stop calling them out. Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can. Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone. Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight. RESIST.

Folks trying to act cool and aloof about the TikTok ban sound genuinely idiotic. If you don’t get why it’s a devastating and dangerous precedent, that says way more about you than the people lamenting its loss. I learned so much on that app. I saw the funniest shit of my life there. Shit sucks.

Now, when Trump swoops in and tries to “save TikTok,” I hope you all remember that he’s also the one that started talks of this ban in the first place.
