Liberal Democrat looking forward to the midterms. The Democrats should have a lot to campaign against by then.

THIS SHOULD BE BREAKING NEWS! The steps to make the military a personal army is happening in real time. Wake the hell up and hold republicans accountable for confirming this nightmare.

Those in power from both parties who couldn’t find the courage to stand up to Netanyahu will not find the courage to stand up to President Trump and the oligarchs.

Let me be VERY clear: enslaved Black Americans liberated themselves from chattel slavery in this country. So no, I reject that Medicare for All isn’t “laudable.” If we refuse to fight, we will always lose.

Members of the military are supposed to be loyal to the Constitution, not the president. Changing that seems to have been the point of the Friday Night Massacre. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Höcke claimed that "Hitler was regarded as only bad.” He has been convicted twice by German courts for using Nazi slogans. And at one point his own fellow AfD leaders thought he was too extreme for their party. But he’s hero to Elon Musk.

I reposted all the anti-Musk and Trump things I found on social media. I wrote my member of Congress to complain about the illegality that Musk, Trump, et. al. are doing. I wrote my Senators about the same. I talked with my son about how un-American all this is. I read a good book about frm tyranny.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Elon’s mass harassment email to all federal employees underscores the importance of having unions to represent workers against abusive management.

I don’t know how many different ways to say that agency personnel don’t work for Elon. They don’t have to report to Elon. They report to their agency leadership, which reports to the President.

By accepting Trump’s anti-Black premise and regurgitating the narrative that equates anything Black as DEI, the NY Times has become part of the propaganda machine

This deranged post must be read in concert with new Daily Beast and Yahoo News reports that Trump is a Kremlin agent ("Krasnov") and Hegseth speeding up a political purge of the military. What you are seeing here is fear from Trump and Musk; they need to get to martial law fast.

On the theme of constitutional failure and emergency, see this piece by my friend and colleague, Johann Neem. My one reservation is that I would place the Impeachment Clause atop my list of failed provisions. jneem.substack.com/p/donald-tru...

This is on us. He told us during the campaign he was gonna purge the military, the DOJ, the FBI, and the intelligence community of people loyal to the law & the Constitution, and replace them with people loyal only to him. He told us he was gonna do this. And we still elected him. This is on us.

Harmeet Dhillon will lead Trump's DOJ Civil Rights Division. Michael Gates will be her lieutenant Both are super partisan election deniers from California who have made names for themselves among MAGA attacking civil rights rather than defending & expanding civil rights Both are unqualified

It’s also logistically impossible. It’s wrong. It’s unconstitutional. And every single federal employee should send @elonmusk & Trump an email and tell them both to go fuck themselves.
