DOGE was never about savings. It was always about surveillance. Over the weekend, we released new detailsā€”and now whistleblowers are coming forward too. Whatā€™s becoming clearer by the day: DOGE isnā€™t a government efficiency program. Itā€™s a data weapon aimed at the American people.

We are now at the point where the AP can write this as if its a simple background fact and it sparks no outrage: "Trump has made no secret of his plans to use the power of the federal government to target domestic political adversaries."

Trump is defying a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling against him. The Constitutional Crisis is no longer some abstract idea, it's right here staring us in the face.

Trump is talking about shuttering publications and networks he disagrees with. He's talking about deporting and imprisoning Americans who dissent. This is unprecedented and undemocratic. Wake up America.

Meaning US citizens. Thatā€™s what he means. Thereā€™s absolutely no other way to take it.

And everyone else is just nodding along like ā€œok. This is normalā€. THIS IS NOT NORMAL!!!

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up maskedā€”these abductions must stop. If youā€™re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isnā€™t law enforcementā€”itā€™s state-sponsored fear.

Oh look. Another bribery and extortion scheme.

Hundreds showed up in Danbury and Bethel CT despite cold and rainy weather. Blumental and A.G. Tong spoke in Danbury! #handsoff

Hands Off in tiny Frenchtown New Jersey. We are small but we are committed and we sure are fucking angry and fighting back. #HandsOff

MISSOURI!!!! If you live in Hickman Mills, Jefferson City, Kansas City, North, Kansas City, Platte County, Raytown, Saint Joseph, or, St. Louis you have an election on TUESDAY!!! A lot of these are school board some of them are city council, and mayor. There are also a few measures. 1/2

Must watch

I still think this is the reason Trump is tanking the economy.

I think we have to confront the fact that tens of millions of Americans have pledged slavish allegiance to a man who says explicitly that his benchmark for when America was great is 1913. And then we have to think about the possibility that we are in the throes of a nationwide mental health crisis.

*travel related* Seen in my travel agent spaces These are NOT criminals but this current administration is CREATING criminals from legit citizens. We all are NOT safe if we let this continue.

Wish theyā€™d post stuff like this on various accounts or at least have all the dem reps share and repost.

President Trump and Elon Musk just shut down the website that tells you how they spend YOUR money. Letā€™s break it down:

Cory Booker showed us what courage looks like by standing up and speaking out in oneā€™s town square. He showed us how it can help shape reality. He demonstrated that it can inspire others and thus can make a real difference in the fight for democracy. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

I wonder if @underthedesknews.bsky.social @hcrichardson.bsky.social will be there too.

ā€œIt turns out The Poors have a word for buying uncooked foodstuffs you have to process yourselfā€

The incompetence of this Administration never ceases to amaze. Waltz and other NSC members used Gmail to conduct official government business, with Waltzā€™s staff even sharing information about sensitive military positions and advanced weapon systems tied to an ongoing conflict.

My Latest: Cory Booker showed us what courage looks like by standing up and speaking out in oneā€™s town square. He showed us how it can help shape reality. He demonstrated that it can inspire others and thus can make a real difference in the fight for democracy.

I know folks are disappointed about Josh Weil losing this special House election in Florida, but let the big picture give you optimism: Republicans won this seat by +33 points just five months ago. We're likely looking at a +20 point swing in support toward Democrats. This is enormous. This is GOOD.

šŸ‘‡

What Senator Booker is doing is historic. And important. Oher Democrats have joined in. www.c-span.org/event/us-sen...

I have this feeling my daily Dems series is gonna be more important now than ever cause people are gonna be under the impression that if someone doesnā€™t do everything Cory is they arenā€™t doing anything. Which is frustrating because there isnā€™t just one way to do the work make noise and fight back

White House: weā€™re going to raise taxes on the richest Americans to cover no tax on tips GOP Congress: the fuck you are The bridge too far, for anyone keeping track, appears to be their rich friends income.

Just awful

Protests took place across the world.

NEW: @aclu.org obtained ICE's "Alien Enemies Act Validation Guide," confirming all it takes to be sent to rot in prison in El Salvador is being Venezuelan and 1) having a tattoo an ICE officer says is a "gang tattoo" and 2) displaying "logos," "symbols" or clothes an ICE officer says are gang signs.

Perfect weather for a protest in Stamford, CT.

Another courageous and brave young lady standing up at her town hall meeting!!

As if hearing my Senator Chris Murphy speak out and reach out to his constituents wasnā€™t awesome enough, I also got to meet one of my favorite artists and civil action role models, @tlduryea.bsky.social !!

Joining in tomorrow!

The fall of an empire is supposed to be a dramatic thing. But the reality is far less exciting. It happens in the text of legislation nobody bothered reading, in local elections nobody followed, in a thousand tiny disasters that amounted to a thousand little cuts on the body politic.

Hope to see more of this going forward

Ewwwwwwwww šŸ¤® šŸ¤¢
