Here's one more action, bc I realized that Chair of the House Ag Committee's district (appropriately) includes State College. If you're at Penn State, plan a trip to one of his offices to ask him he's not holding a hearing on USDA firing people in charge of bird flu. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk. Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️ thehill.com/media/514849...

Democrats in Washington have been reactive - not proactive - in creating a strategy to counter the Trump agenda. We can’t continue to be caught flat-footed. I’ve got a solution. Check out my first Substack below. open.substack.com/pub/wileynic...

Instead of posting snarky comments on social media, maybe Senator Tillis should remember this isn’t a game. It’s not a joke. These government agencies impact the real lives of the North Carolinians he claims to serve. And the people deserve better than this MAGA clown show.

The outrage over Nixon's "Saturday Night Massacre" came when the top two officials at the DOJ resigned rather than follow his corrupt orders. These posts aren't as prominent, but their resignations should help force more attention on the insanely corrupt bargain between Adams and Trump.

Pope Francis' remarkable rebuke of JD Vance and Trumpism lays bare an essential truth: Trump is overseeing a massive and systematic abandonment of obligation to the global poor, and Vance's theological obfuscation can't make that disappear. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1914...

If each Treasury payee is a separate record, and there are, say, 68,000,000 social security payees (as is estimated), then at $5000 per violation, it seems like Elon could be penalized $340 billion if he unlawfully accessed their Treasury records...

If these Republicans advance RFK Jr., they're not just rolling the dice on a reckless nominee, they are telling the country they believe it's more important to appease Donald Trump than ensure Americans' health. Confirming this anti-vaxxer is not just about politics--it's a life-and-death decision.
